It is a sad truth that regular diet and exercise don’t always guarantee the elimination of stubborn fat. This is especially true for localized fat bulges located in the belly, arms, thighs, and chin. A non-invasive body contouring procedure like ZLipo can help, which now has 360° applicators that can take fat freezing further.
ZLipo by Zimmer Aesthetics is a non-surgical fat reduction treatment that uses Cryolipolysis or fat freezing. It is designed to reduce or minimize stubborn fat bulges that don’t respond well to diet and exercise. The procedure can shape and contour your body without cuts, needles, or downtime.
ZLipo has handpieces that cool down fat deposits in a controlled manner. The treatment starts with pulsed vacuum suctioning, which helps break down the fat cells even further before the actual fat freezing begins. This has positive effects on both metabolism and lymphatic fat drainage.
Common treatment areas include:
Exposure to cooling temperatures over a prolonged period triggers apoptosis or natural cell death. The treated fat cells are naturally processed and permanently removed from the body. The complete breakdown and removal of fat cells through the lymphatic system take about 10 to 12 weeks.
As the fat cells are gone for good, you’ll then enjoy a slimmer or a more contoured treatment area. This, however, doesn’t necessarily mean that you won’t gain weight after the procedure. If you fail to follow healthy lifestyle habits, the remaining fat cells in your body can grow and expand, resulting in fat bulges.
The ZLipo 360° applicators can take your fat freezing treatment further. These are available in three different sizes: small, medium, and mini. The small and the medium are new applicators, while the mini one is a handpiece specially designed for smaller areas of fat (in the chin, knees, and underarms).
The small applicator has a straight supporting edge, while the medium has a curved one. Both also have smaller cups that eliminate pulsation at the start and end of the procedure. This leads to a shorter, safer, and effective application.
