How Long Does The Effect From Fat Freeze Last?

‍

In order to properly evaluate the long-term effects of fat freezing, the participants only received the treatment on their left flank. This provided a fair sense of comparison, as the right flank acted as the control group.

‍

In both cases, the results showed that there were significant reductions in fat levels present in those individuals, even after 9 years post-treatment. This meant that fat-freezing treatments (or coolsculpting) have very long-lasting effects.

How Does Fat Freezing Work?

‍

The science behind how the coolsculpting treatments work is actually quite simple, it applies cold temperatures to freeze fat cells without damaging the skin or organs. This is because fatty tissues are more sensitive to cold temperatures. A membrane is laid on the areas of the body with unwanted body fat and the fat freeze machine uses a suction cup to freeze the fats. The process of freezing fat cells with intense cold temperatures will kill fat cells. These dead fat cells then get flushed out of your body through your lymphatic system naturally, leading to fat reduction.

‍

Fat freezing treatment is intended for body contouring and subcutaneous fat removal, not to lose weight. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle by following a balanced diet with regular exercise can increase the effectiveness of coolsculpting results.

Do Fat Cells Grow Back?

‍

A question we often receive is whether fat cells return after a cryolipolysis treatment. This concern is understandable for those considering coolsculpting treatment as a long-term solution.

‍

You will be happy to hear that the answer is no — the fats do not grow back in most cases, as your body does not create new fatty tissue to replace those eliminated during the treatment.

‍

The human body determines the total number of fatty tissue it has when it reaches adulthood. This number is set, which means the body does not destroy or create more of these cells. Once cryolipolysis destroys existing fat cells in certain areas, new ones will not grow back, resulting in a long-term reduction of stubborn fat.

‍

Although fat cells generally do not return, there is always a chance that you may gain weight by increasing the size of your current fat cells. The fat cell size may increase if you do not maintain a healthy lifestyle, stay hydrated, and exercise regularly.

Even though the results of fat freezing are promising and long-lasting, your lifestyle habits matter greatly. Maintaining a healthy diet and exercise is very important to preserve the longevity of your results from the fat-freezing procedure.
