Zenith Cosmetic Clinics in Nottingham offers two types of crystal fat freezing technique: CoolSculpting and Cristal®.
Also known as cryolipolysis or cryo lipo, these treatments utilise similar FDA-approved technology to reduce fat around the body.
It is a frustrating truth that a healthy diet and exercise regimen isn’t always enough to eliminate stubborn fat deposits. There are many alternative methods of fat reduction out there, but crystal fat freezing is a fast and painless option.
Non-invasive and with no downtime required, fat freezing ‘crystallises’ the fat cells, causing them to die and be naturally reabsorbed by the body. Results develop over a 6 to 8 week period.
Crystal fat freezing has proven results seen in clinical studies. It is a safe and sure way to redefine your natural shape and get the figure you’ve always wanted!

Crystal fat freezing quite literally freezes your fat. Fat cells, or adipocytes, find it more difficult to survive at sub-zero temperatures in comparison to other body cells.
Cryolipolysis uses temperatures of between -5 to -9°C to crystallise the adipocytes. They die off and are removed naturally by the lymphatic system in the weeks following treatment.
The surrounding tissue is unaffected by the cold and remains healthy. In the absence of fat cells the other cells condense, causing you to appear slimmer and accentuating your curves.
Due to the fat cells being eliminated, the treatment is permanent. We recommend that you maintain healthy habits to ensure that fat does not build up again.
Both the Cristal and CoolSculpting machines work slightly differently despite the underlying theory being the same. Your individual circumstances will dictate the course of treatment that will achieve your desired results. Book a consultation with one of our qualified Nottingham physicians to assess whether Cristal or CoolSculpting is best suited to you.
If you have stubborn deposits of fat or fatty rolls in the following areas, crystal fat freezing could be the right treatment for you:
If you have fat deposits elsewhere on the body, don’t rule out fat freezing just yet!
Arrange a consultation with our Nottingham clinic and we can discuss your suitability for this treatment, or advise an alternative treatment to better suit your needs.
It is important to note that crystal fat freezing is not considered a form of weight loss and is not recommended as a treatment for obesity.
The first step is to book a consultation with Zenith Nottingham. During this session, we can discuss the results you wish to achieve and whether crystal fat freezing is the right way to achieve them. Then, together, we can draw up a treatment plan based on your goals and realistic expectations; for most patients, this will involve between one and two treatment sessions. Your physician will need to measure areas of fat in able to advise on the treatment parameters.
The treatment itself requires no anaesthesia to perform. Your physician will place a cryo protective gel pad on the treatment area. The appropriate fat freezing device will then be applied. The device uses suction to gently pull the fat fold further into the machine so that it can be cooled.
Generally, crystal fat freezing can be completed in no more than 60 minutes per fold of fat. During this time, we try to provide a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere at our Nottingham clinic. You can read, listen to music, or watch television while the machine does its job.
You may experience slight pinching and pulling sensations at first, but these quickly subside as the area grows numb. The discomfort associated with this treatment is very low, but we can reassure you and put appropriate measures in place if you’re worried.
There is no downtime after the procedure and you can resume your normal routine straight away; even exercise.
Results will continue to develop over a 6-8 week period as the body reabsorbs the dead fat cells. Roughly 20-30% of the fat treated is eliminated, enabling you to enjoy your considerably more defined curves.
There may be several temporary side effects of the treatment, but these will recede in time. They include: itching, bruising, redness, swelling and tenderness, stinging or tingling, cramps or spasms, numbness, and slight nausea.
