During contrast cryolipolysis, an area of the body is subjected to alternating extreme cooling and heat. It usually begins with a few minutes of cold air application or freezing of the area, followed by reheating of the same area with warm air or the application of a thermofuge.
Cryolipolysis is mainly used for body contouring and fat reduction in specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, hips or arms. The treatment leads to the breakdown of fat cells at low temperatures. However, it only works on the fat, while the muscles, skin and blood vessels are completely safe. The frozen fat cells disintegrate when exposed to the cold and are then excreted from the body through natural metabolic processes.
Contrast cryolipolysis is an innovative and effective treatment that can offer many benefits. It is a non-invasive procedure, so it is safe and leaves no side effects. No long recovery period is required after contrast cryolipolysis. It can be used for a variety of conditions, such as sports injuries, chronic musculoskeletal pain, swelling, inflammation, post-traumatic pain or rheumatic complaints. It can provide pain relief, reduce swelling and improve tissue function.
After contrast cryopolysis treatment, it is important to avoid intense exercise for several days. It is recommended to avoid hot baths, saunas, hot compresses or other heat sources on the treated area. Extreme temperatures can affect the healing process. It is important to follow the instructions and recommendations given by the specialist at MTS Holistic Therapy. Following these guidelines will help to minimise the risk of complications and ensure effective results.
Prior to the contrast cryolipolysis treatment, it is recommended to avoid natural tanning or the use of self-tanners on the area to be treated. This is important because the skin should not be excessively tanned or irritated. In addition to this, it is also advisable to refrain from irritants such as creams with retinol, acids or other potent cosmetic ingredients. This can reduce the risk of skin irritation during the treatment. The skin in the treatment area should be clean and free of any substances such as oils, creams or cosmetics. Before performing the treatment, a consultation with a specialist at MTS Holistic Therapy will dispel all your doubts. You are welcome!
