Persistent fat deposits on the stomach, hips or thighs are often difficult to eliminate, even with a consistent diet and exercise. Cryolipolysis offers a non-surgical way to gently define the silhouette. At OmniMed, we rely exclusively on the original CoolSculpting® system from ZELTIQ, which is the only cooling device of its kind to have FDA approval.

How does cryolipolysis work?

During the procedure, the excess fatty tissue is cooled down to around 4 °C in a controlled manner using a vacuum applicator. Fat cells are particularly sensitive to cold and slowly die off after the treatment. Over the following weeks, the body breaks down the crystallized fat cells naturally via the lymphatic system - the surrounding tissue remains undamaged.

You can find more details about the procedure and the applicators used on our CoolSculpting® page.

Cryolipolysis before and after: What do the pictures really show?

Many interested parties search for "cryolipolysis before and after" to get a realistic impression of possible results. In our gallery of CoolSculpting® before and after photos, you will only see authentic patient results that were photographed under identical conditions. The photos prove that:

  • the first changes are visible from week 6,
  • the full result takes effect after around 3 months and
  • a stable weight is crucial for long-term success.

The pictures also make it clear that moderate fat reduction is the goal: we work with moderate temperatures and numbers of sessions to shape natural contours and make the result predictable - without exaggeration.

Treatment process at OmniMed

  1. Consultation: We analyze your target areas and explain whether CoolSculpting® makes sense.
  2. Applying the applicator: The vacuum applicator gently sucks in the tissue and cools it for 35-75 minutes.
  3. Relaxation time: During cooling you can read, listen to music or simply relax.

Frequently asked questions answered concisely

How many sessions do I need?
One treatment is often sufficient for subtle fat deposits; larger deposits benefit from two sessions.

Is the treatment painful?
The initial cold sensation subsides after a few minutes.

Is there any downtime?
No. Slight redness or numbness usually disappears quickly.

How long do the results last?
Permanent, as long as you maintain your weight. If you gain weight, the result will remain, but the effect will be diminished. If you subsequently lose weight again, the results of the CoolSculpting treatment will also become visible again.

You can find more detailed answers in our CoolSculpting® FAQs.

Original device vs. replica - an important difference

Not every cooling device delivers reliable results. In our surgeries in Eisenstadt and Klagenfurt, we rely exclusively on the original CoolSculpting® system from ZELTIQ, which is the only cryolipolysis procedure approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). You can find out more about this topic on our CoolSculpting® vs. replica devices page.
