Aftercare Guide: What To Do After Fat Freezing (And Not To Do)

Fat freezing treatment is a non-surgical, non-invasive fat removal procedure that uses controlled cooling technology. Fat-freezing treatments kill fat cells with cold temperatures then your body will naturally eliminate all the fat cells. It is shown in a study that Fat freezing treatments provide up to 25% fat reduction in the treatment area for you to hit all your body goals. In this blog post, we will discuss what to do and what not to do after a fat freeze session.

5 Things To Do After Your Fat Freeze Treatment

1) Monitor Visceral Fat Levels

Fat freeze treatments target only the hard-to-lose subcutaneous fat and not visceral fat. Visceral fat is the deep, dangerous kind that accumulates around your organs and can only be reduced through diet, lifestyle changes (such as getting enough sleep), and exercise. So, it's important to monitor your visceral fat levels during treatment by eating healthy foods, staying active, drinking lots of water, getting enough restful sleep each night, and reducing stress whenever possible.

2) Gently Massage Treated Area To Improve Blood Circulation

A light massage after your fat freezing sessions improves the effects of the treatment. It helps to break down your frozen fat and encourages your body's waste removal system to flush out the fat cells. To expedite the recovery process, continue massaging the area a few times a day for up to 7 days after your fat freezing process. Do note that you should not use medicated oil with the massage. Instead, you can use aloe vera gel or mild scent-free moisturiser.

Fat freezing treatment is non-invasive, so there are no needles or incisions involved in removing the fat from your body. Instead, the lymphatic drainage system of our body removes all the dead fat cells after the fat reduction treatment. A great post treatment care would be to keep yourself hydrated by drinking 2 Litres of water a day. This is because water is a fundamental part to play to speed up the healing process by flushing out unwanted fat cells.

4) Adhere To Your Treatment Plan

 When you come in for a consultation, specialists will sit down with you and create a treatment plan tailored to your concerns and needs to achieve your desired results. They will use their years of experience and expertise to give you the most accurate estimate possible of how many sessions they think you'll need. Not following (or completing) your treatment plan can impact the results of your treatments and lengthen recovery time. Do keep in mind to notify your consultant or doctor about any underlying health conditions that you may have.

5) Give Your Body Time

Some people see results a lot quicker than others; however, this varies from person to person. Non-Surgical Body Contouring is a process that we are committed to throughout.
