CoolSculpting and cryolipolysis have transformed non-surgical fat reduction by harnessing the science of controlled cooling. At Axiom Aesthetics, we offer the latest cryotherapy technologies for targeted fat reduction without surgery or downtime.

The Science of Fat Freezing

Fat cells are more susceptible to cold temperatures than surrounding tissue. Cryolipolysis exploits this vulnerability by cooling targeted areas to temperatures that trigger fat cell apoptosis (natural cell death) without damaging skin, nerves, or muscle. Over the following 2–3 months, the body naturally processes and eliminates these dead fat cells through the lymphatic system.

Clinical Evidence

  • FDA-cleared for visible fat reduction in 9 treatment areas
  • Average 20–25% fat layer reduction per treatment cycle
  • Over 7 million treatments performed worldwide
  • Results supported by over 70 peer-reviewed publications

Treatment Areas

Our practitioners commonly treat the abdomen, flanks (love handles), inner and outer thighs, double chin (submental fat), bra fat, upper arms, banana roll (beneath buttocks), and knee fat.

What to Expect

Each session lasts 35–60 minutes per area. You may experience intense cold initially, then numbness. Post-treatment, expect temporary redness, swelling, and tenderness for 1–2 weeks. Final results are visible at 8–12 weeks.
