Body slimming (fat freezing)
Body slimming at MT Aesthetics uses CoolSlimming 360 cryolipolysis, better known as fat freezing: applicators cool stubborn pockets of fat in a controlled way, and because fat cells are more sensitive to cold than the skin around them, the treated cells break down and are cleared naturally by your body over the following weeks. No needles, no surgery, no real downtime. It is nurse-led and starts with a consultation, because suitability and honest expectations come first.
How fat freezing works
The CoolSlimming 360 applicators surround the treated area rather than pressing on one side of it, cooling the tissue evenly. Fat cells respond to that controlled cold by breaking down, and your body clears them gradually through its own natural processes.
- Commonly considered for areas that hold their shape despite diet and exercise, such as the tummy, flanks, back or thighs.
- Sessions are comfortable enough to read or scroll through; most people feel cold and firm pressure that settles into numbness.
- Changes appear gradually over the weeks following treatment, not overnight, and results vary from person to person.
What to expect afterwards
The area can feel tender, look red, or feel numb for a while after a session, and occasional bruising is possible; day-to-day activity carries on as normal. Because the change is gradual, progress is reviewed at follow-up rather than judged on the day. Marie explains aftercare in person, and whether one session or a planned series suits your goals is part of the consultation conversation.
Is it right for you?
Fat freezing suits localised, pinchable pockets of fat; it is not a weight-loss treatment, and honest screening matters. Your consultation covers your goals, the areas that bother you, your medical history and realistic expectations - and if it is not the right tool for what you want, Marie will say so plainly.
Frequently asked
Does fat freezing hurt?
The first minutes feel intensely cold with firm suction, then the area typically goes numb. Most people find sessions very manageable and simply relax through them.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on the area and your goals - some people treat once, many plan a small series. That is mapped honestly at your consultation, and results vary from person to person.
When will I see a change?
Gradually over the weeks after treatment as the body clears the treated fat cells. It is designed to be subtle and natural-looking, not sudden.
