Fat Freezing Treatment in Singapore
Fat freezing, or cryolipolysis, is a non-surgical and non-invasive procedure designed to help contour the body by targeting unwanted fat cells. This method focuses on unwanted fat cells by cooling them to a temperature that triggers their natural removal process. At Shens Therapeutics, we utilise innovative fat freezing technology to help reduce stubborn fat safely and efficiently. Explore how our advanced techniques can assist you in achieving your ideal body shape.
For first-time customers, we're excited to offer a trial session at just $98 (before GST.)

How Fat Freezing Works
Fat freezing, or cryolipolysis, is a method that targets and reduces fat cells in specific areas of the body using a controlled cooling technology. Here’s a detailed look at the process:
Targeting Specific Areas
A non-invasive fat freezing treatment applicator is applied to the targeted area where fat reduction is desired. This applicator uses vacuum pressure to draw the fatty tissue into the cooling panel.
Inducing Cell Apoptosis
The primary mechanism of fat freezing is triggering a process called apoptosis in fat cells. The cold temperature, typically around -7 degrees Celsius, causes the fat cells to crystallise without damaging the surrounding skin or other tissues.
Crystallisation of Fat Cells
Once the fat cells are exposed to freezing temperatures, they begin to crystallise. This crystallisation disrupts the cell membrane, leading to the fat cell's death over time.
Elimination Through the Lymphatic System
After the fat cells have been crystallised and subsequently die, they are gradually broken down and eliminated from the body via the lymphatic system. This natural process of elimination generally occurs over a period of three to four months, during which the volume of fat in the targeted area decreases.
Our fat freezing technology is designed to specifically target fat cells, which are more vulnerable to cold temperatures than the surrounding water-rich cells. This selective ability ensures that only fat cells are affected while other tissues, including the skin, remain unharmed.
The full results of a fat freezing treatment can take up to several months to appear as the body continuously processes and eliminates the dead fat cells. The results are intended to be long-lasting, provided that the patient maintains a stable weight and healthy lifestyle.
This method is widely used for its non-invasive nature and its capability to target fat that is resistant to diet and exercise, such as fat in the abdomen, thighs, and under the chin. The process is gradual, which allows for natural-looking fat reduction over time.
