This body contouring treatment is a noninvasive method that gets rid of fat when a balanced diet and consistent exercise can’t get the job done. At the time of your appointment, the applicators are placed to target the specific areas with stubborn fat. The technology cools and freezes fat cells to break down the stubborn fat you’ve hated seeing. The fat cells crystallize and, in due time, diminish. Your body naturally processes these dead cells to give you the physique you have that you’ve been working so hard for.
