Cryolipolysis · Fat freezing, with a known rare complication
FDA-cleared for localised fat reduction — not weight loss.
Revisado médicamente por Bernard Garcia, MD
Qué es
Cryolipolysis cools targeted fat to trigger fat-cell death, which the body clears over weeks. CoolSculpting is FDA-cleared for visible fat bulges in specific areas. It is not a weight-loss treatment.
Cómo funciona
A single session reduces fat thickness in the treated area by roughly a fifth on average. The recognised rare complication is paradoxical adipose hyperplasia — an enlargement of the treated area that may need surgery — with reported rates higher than originally published.

Is it a weight-loss treatment?
No. It contours; it does not change weight meaningfully.
Does Vitrex provide it?
No.
How does it relate to metabolic peptides?
It doesn't, biologically — but people researching body composition ask about both.
