What is Fat Freezing?
First things first: fat freezing, or cryolipolysis, is a non-surgical fat removal procedure that targets and eliminates stubborn fat cells by exposing them to sub-zero temperatures.
During the treatment, the fatty areas are cooled to crystallise the fat cells, which are then naturally removed by the body’s lymphatic system.
After the treatment, the targeted areas of your body will appear slimmer and more toned.
If you’re looking for an effective solution for stubborn fat pockets, cryolipolysis may be a good option.
Consultation and Assessment at our Cardiff Clinic
Before your session, you’ll have a consultation with one of our clinical consultants at VIVO Body Studio.
They’ll discuss your goals and reasons for choosing cryolipolysis and measure the areas to be treated.
This step ensures that cryolipolysis is the right treatment for you and helps in designing a personalised treatment plan.
During this consultation, you’ll learn how we can help you achieve your desired results.

Preparing for your Treatment in our Cardiff Branch
On the day of your appointment, wear loose and comfortable clothing.
Our specialist will mark the treatment areas and apply a gel pad to protect your skin from the extreme cold.
The cryolipolysis applicator will then be placed over the targeted fatty area, which is suctioned into the device’s cavity.
This step is crucial for ensuring the effectiveness of your session.
The Treatment Session
The temperature inside the applicator will gradually drop to between -7°C and -8°C.
You might feel vacuum suction and intense cooling, leading to sensations of tingling, numbness, and possibly minor aches or cramps.
However, any discomfort typically subsides within 5 to 10 minutes.
A typical lasts around 30 minutes to an hour, and you can resume your usual activities immediately afterward.
The treatment designed to be convenient and efficient, allowing you to get back to your day without delay.
How Effective is Fat Freezing?
When performed correctly, cryolipolysis can be an exceptionally effective treatment.
Results can vary from patient to patient, but they are generally long-lasting.
Since the adult body has a limited number of fat cells, the removal of these cells through cryolipolysis is permanent.
To prolong the results, it’s crucial to follow the recommended aftercare guidelines and maintain a healthy and balanced lifestyle.
Treatments at VIVO Body Studio Cardiff are designed to ensure you achieve the best possible results.
How Many Cryolipolysis Applicators Will I Need?
The number of applicators used during the procedure varies depending on the size and area being treated.
A standard applicator used in our Cardiff clinic is 20cm, roughly the size of your palm.
Here’s a quick guide to help you estimate the number of applicators you might need for your treatment:
- Upper or Lower Abdomen (individually): 1 to 2 applicators
- Upper and Lower Abdomen (combined): 2 to 4 applicators
- Flanks (Love Handles): 2 to 4 applicators
- Lower Back: 2 to 4 applicators
- Bra Back: 2 to 4 applicators
- Chest (men only): 2 to 4 applicators
- Inner Thighs: 2 to 4 applicators
- Outer Thighs: 2 to 4 applicators
- Under the Bum: 2 to 4 applicators
- Buttocks: 2 to 4 applicators
This guide will help you prepare for your fat freezing session in Cardiff, ensuring you achieve even and effective results.
360° Freeze: An Advanced Fat Freezing Option available in Cardiff
While essentially the same procedure, 360° Freeze is a more advanced version of fat freezing.
The standard cryolipolysis treatment uses applicators that freeze fat from two sides, but 360° Freeze uses special applicators that target fat cells from all angles.
This means 360° Freeze can eliminate more fat cells per session due to better coverage and temperature control.
This advanced technique is available at VIVO Body Studio Cardiff, offering even more effective fat freezing Cardiff treatments.
The Number Sessions Needed
The number of fat-freezing sessions needed to achieve desired results depends on the size of the area being treated and the amount of fat that needs to be removed.
Some patients achieve their desired results with just one session, while others may need several sessions.
On average, a patient can expect to see a 22% to 45% fat reduction after a single cryolipolysis session.
At VIVO Body Studio Cardiff, we tailor each cryolipolysis treatment plan to meet your specific needs and goals.
Post-Treatment Care and Recovery
Because cryolipolysis is non-surgical, there is no downtime afterwards.
You can immediately return to your daily activities after the procedure without any recovery period.
To ensure optimal results, follow the post-treatment guidelines provided by our specialists at VIVO Body Studio Cardiff.
Maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise routine after cryolipolysis is crucial.
While the body doesn’t replace the removed fat cells, the remaining fat cells can grow larger if you don’t maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Therefore, following a balanced diet and staying active can help you maintain the fantastic results.
Addressing Common Concerns about Fat Freezing in Cardiff
- Cryolipolysis is not a weight loss procedure. It effectively removes fat cells by freezing them, but it may not result in noticeable weight loss. Treatments are designed to contour and sculpt the body rather than facilitate significant weight loss.
- The body doesn’t replace the removed fat cells, but the remaining fat cells can grow larger if you consume more calories than you burn. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle after your treatment is essential to preserve your results.
- Fat freezing generally does not result in long-lasting side effects. Common short-term effects include temporary numbness, slight swelling, and temporary redness. These side effects are typically mild and resolve quickly.
- Besides the abdomen, cryolipolysis is effective on various parts of the body including the chin, arms, chest, thighs, buttocks, and upper and lower back. Treatments can be tailored to your specific needs, allowing you to target multiple areas for comprehensive body contouring.
- Cryolipolysis isn’t suitable for treating cellulite or tightening sagging skin. However, VIVO Body Studio Cardiff offers specialised treatments for these concerns, including Cellulite Reduction Treatment and Radio Frequency Tummy Tightening. These complementary treatments can enhance the overall results of your sessions.
At VIVO Body Studio Cardiff, we’re committed to helping you achieve your body contouring goals with our advanced treatments.

Been using Vivo clinic for a while and just wanted to mention the level of service provided from Tash is unbelievable. Sometimes its not the product you come back for its the level of service. Tash has always been brilliant and goes the extra mile each time. Credit to the company!
I have been going for treatments with Rosanne in the Belfast clinic for the past couple of years. 5-star treatment every time! Rosanne is very knowledgeable about all the various treatments and great with recommendations tailored to your needs. Would highly recommend.
Tasha was amazing she explained everything and she was very welcoming. She was amazing at what she did and her advice was great. I definitely will be going back here.
I had a radio frequency facial, hifu facial and plasma pen treatment with Cherie. I am thrilled with the results and found the whole experience very relaxing. As a 59 year old woman, my complexion has never looked as good as it does now for a long time. I would definitely recommend the treatments and of course Cherie. I will be returning for more treatments.
Hi
I had Tini as my therapist at the Manchester Vivo clinic she was amazing, she explained the treatment in detail, was thorough and efficient and professional - I would give her 10/10 and highly recommend her - A BIG Thanks to Tini xxx
This was my second treatment. The salon is lovely with a pleasant waiting area. My therapist, Misbah was knowledgeable and professional and put me at ease straight away with her friendly demeanor - I felt comfortable and relaxed throughout. The treatment is slightly uncomfortable but I chose to have the highest setting to get the maximum benefits - you can reduce it to a lower setting if you find it uncomfortable. I would definitely recommend going - try and book with Misbah as she goes the extra mile to make you feel relaxed and pampered.
Again had a treatments with Rosanne, a chin reduction, all I can say a game changer, definitely always take Roseanne recommendations, it makes a great to go to a cosmetologist, that face is not like plastic and recommends non injectables as a treatment , thank you Roseanne 🤩
I just had my last set of fat freezing with Taylor yesterday and as usual a lovely experience, Cherie did my previous sessions and both ladies are so friendly and knowledgeable. For all my sessions I felt comfortable and was put at ease as they answered all my questions. Great experience with both Taylor and Cherie would definitely book again, even for a nice afternoon of chatting with them! 10/10 service xxx
