Cryolipolysis

What is Cryolipolysis?

It is a painless and safe method and reduces local thickness without surgery or anesthetic, in a single session. With special electrodes, a very low temperature is applied to selected areas. Fat cells are particularly sensitive to cold, unlike other cell types. Controlled cooling has the effect of destroying fat cells, which the body then gradually removes naturally.

When will I see results?

The first results are visible in 4 weeks but the final results are visible after a few months (injured fat cells are gradually eliminated from the body up to 4 to 6 months after treatment), with 25 to 35% fat reduction. The lost centimeters create a slimmer silhouette.

In which areas does it apply?

On abdomen, sides of abdomen, buns, inner thighs, arms, above knees.

How many reps are needed?

More often than not one application gives satisfactory results, in which significant problems a second session offers more improvement.

How long is the session? What should I do next?

The session for each area lasts approximately one hour. Immediately afterwards you can return to your daily activities.

Unwanted actions;

Bruising rarely occurs in the treatment areas and lasts for a few days. The treatment should not be done by patients sensitive to cold (cryoglobulinaemias, cold urticaria, paroxysmal cold haemoglobinaemia).

Dermabrasion with diamonds

In microdermabrasion we use a rotating mechanism to remove dead cells from the surface of the skin, usually on the face but often also on the neck, torso and hands. The removal of dead cells is done mechanically and not chemically (as in peelings).

What are the benefits?

Diamond dermabrasion removes the most superficial layers of the skin. The result is that the skin looks brighter, younger and smoother. Discolorations and other skin irregularities, enlarged pores, fine wrinkles are improved. It offers skin renewal in a completely natural way.

How is skin scraping done?

The outer layer of the skin, the epidermis, is made up of many rows of cells. The most superficial (external) ones refer to dead cells while the deeper ones to cells that mature and rise to the surface. The purpose of microdermabrasion is to gently remove superficial, dead cells and reveal the deepest layers of the skin, thus offering a rejuvenated, soft and clean face full of radiance.

In the past, a machine was used that ejected aluminum or aluminum oxide grains with a controlled momentum.

More recently, however, we have been applying dermabrasion with diamonds. We apply to the surface of the skin a suction device which at its end has a metal head covered with an artificial diamond. When the head rotates it "scratches" gently and controlled the skin. Tailored suction removes dead cells and sebum that slough off the skin, leaving it smooth with no crystal residue. There are different heads and degrees of aggressiveness, and according to the diversity of each skin, the treatment that does not cause irritation is chosen.

It is painless to treat with skin scraping?

Microdermabrasion does not cause pain and does not require the application of an anesthetic cream before the treatment.

 

What other treatments is skin scraping combined with?

Dermabrasion in our clinic is often combined with a special light herbal peeling to enhance the effect on discolorations and more radiance.

How many treatments are needed?

Usually 4-6 sessions every 7-14 days.

Who should not have skin scraping?

The treatment should not be done when there are skin infections (microbial, herpes or warts) as well as wounds in the area. Be careful with people who take anticoagulant drugs because they may easily experience bruising (bruises). Attention is also needed in people with sensitive skin where the intensity is adjusted accordingly.

What should be done after skin scraping:

Intensive moisturizing of the skin and application of a sunscreen product are usually recommended in the days after the treatment.
