As with every MediSpa treatment a thorough consultation takes place prior to your session to determine if you are a suitable candidate. Some types of fat are hard to the touch, due to genetic factors, so they may not respond to treatment. It is important for a trained professional to assess the area you wish to treat in order to ensure that the fat cells will respond to treatment. Soft fat that you can grab hold of in your hand will respond really well, whereas hard fat which is often positioned behind the muscle wall may not respond at all. Certain medical conditions, medication and circulatory disorders may mean that fat freeze is not an option for you, however for more than 80% of our clients Fat Freeze is a viable, safe alternative to cosmetic surgery, with no downtime or pain involved.
