Slimming down without surgery: Discover HIFU and Cryolipolysis at Skincenters

Excess fat can be a persistent problem for many. Despite a healthy diet and regular exercise, some fat deposits remain difficult to combat. Fortunately, there are innovative treatments that accelerate the breakdown of fat and support the weight-loss process. In this blog, we discuss two popular methods: HIFU and cryolipolysis, which you can undergo at Skincenters.

HIFU: Targeted fat loss with ultrasonic waves

HIFU, or High Intensity Focused Ultrasound, is an advanced technique that uses ultrasonic waves to destroy fat cells deep within the skin. At Skincenters, we use the UTIMIS HIFU from Korust Medical, specifically designed to minimize pain and superficial skin damage. The device targets only fat cells, leaving surrounding tissues undamaged.

During the treatment, the fat cells are heated, leading to their breakdown. Then the broken down cells are naturally disposed of by the body. HIFU is especially suitable for small problem areas such as the arms, hips, face or neck. It is important to emphasize that it is not a method of losing weight, but ideal for localized fat reduction.

Benefits of HIFU at Skincenters:

• Non-invasive scar-free treatment
• Targets small fat deposits
• Safe and effective with minimal risk of complications

Cryolipolysis: Freeze the fat away

Another effective method of getting rid of stubborn fat is cryolipolysis, also known as fat freezing. This treatment is an excellent alternative to liposuction and does not require surgical procedures, such as needles or scalpels. Cryolipolysis is ideal for larger areas such as the thighs, abdomen, buttocks and lovehandles.

During the treatment, an applicator is placed on the skin, which cools the fat cells until they crystallize, a process known as apoptosis. This means that the fat cells die off and are then disposed of naturally by the body. In just one one-hour session, you can expect fat reduction of 20 to 25% in the treated area.

Benefits of cryolipolysis at Skincenters:

• Non-invasive fat reduction without surgery
• Treats larger fat deposits
• Visible results after just one session

Maintain your results with a healthy lifestyle

Both HIFU and cryolipolysis are safe and effective ways to reduce fat, but it is still important to continue to watch your diet, drink plenty of water and exercise regularly even after treatment. These treatments are no substitute for a healthy lifestyle, but they can help reduce stubborn fat deposits.
