Freeze or Burn: Choosing the right body sculpting treatment for you

It is a truth universally acknowledged that diet and exercise are the dual keys to better health. What is also true, however, is that even eating right and staying active cannot always guarantee the achievement of our physical goals. Employing the latest technology in body aesthetics, we offer a diverse range of safe, tried and true techniques to support your efforts in attaining your ideal aesthetic and health goals.

Who should look into body sculpting treatments?

Anyone who is struggling with shedding stubborn fat in specific areas can consider seeking out our body treatments. It is a myth that only those who are overweight face the issue of stubborn fat; in truth, anyone can find themselves experiencing difficulty in toning certain problem areas, the most common of which often include the tummy, thighs, and hips. This does not always translate to unhealthy eating habits or lack of exercise, since factors such as genetics and hormone changes also influence where and why our bodies may choose to retain fat.

What’s the difference between fat freezing and fat burning?

FAT FREEZING, specifically our Clatuu Alpha Cryolipolysis process, is the latest in Korean technology, targeting select areas of difficult-to-lose fat. It is a reliable and effective fat-loss solution that leaves surgery out of the equation.  Clatuu Alpha works by targeting the layer of fat just below the skin’s surface; it is this layer that is responsible for unsightly bulges. Carefully selected applicators suck up a portion of this fatty tissue and cool it to the point of crystallisation. The body naturally breaks down this layer of crystallised fats and excretes it, leading to permanent removal of the treated fat cells. The entire process is non-invasive and involves minimal discomfort. It has helped many patients who were close to their ideal weight to effectively rid themselves of specific pockets of stubborn fat.

FAT BURNING via truSculpt® iD’s powerful radiofrequency technology, in comparison, evenly distributes optimal, low frequency energy deep throughout the fat layer from skin to muscle. This results in selective cell-death in an average of 24% of fat cells targeted. Over a 12-week process, the body excretes these fat cells, allowing for results that are visible after even a single session. It can be tailored to treat areas both large and small, and is flexible enough to accommodate differences in fat density and skin types. Clients who favour skin tightening and an overall reduction in body fat have voiced their satisfaction with this approach.

In other words, both treatments work by inducing apoptosis in fat tissue. Both are proving to be the leading choices among those seeking a minimal-discomfort, non-surgical way to sculpt and contour their ideal figures.

Fire or Ice?

Why choose when you can have the best of both worlds?

At The Aesthetic Studio, a combination of fat freezing and infrared technology can be administered under the skillful eye of our internationally-trained Aesthetic Doctor and Consultant Surgeon, Dr. Jonathan Lee, in a “fire-and-ice” combination for maximum efficiency and enhanced results.

The treatments work well together since Clatuu Alpha targets specific, often deep, fat pockets; truSculpt® iD works across larger, more uniform areas which tend to be more superficial by comparison. The RF technology utilized by truSculpt® iD also helps with tightening and smoothing skin after the loss of fat volume.

Is this approach suitable for me?
