The body’s inflammatory response to the injections can last up to six weeks - per session. It is a given that multiple sessions will be needed which means months of inflammation in the treatment areas.

The treated area slightly swells immediately after the cooling session, this passes after 20 + minutes. Occasionally the area will go red and feel cold to the touch.

It is suggested that pre injection arnica tablets are taken to try and reduce bruising, post injection pain relief as well as warm compression.

The only requirements prior to treatments are not to eat/drink foods high in sugar or carbs and no alcohol or caffeine two hours before or directly after. Also, if possible avoid excessive exercise directly before - the reason for this is to prevent the body’s temperature fluctuating for a short period of time whilst having the treatment.

Temporary tender, bruised and swelling that can feel bumpy in the treated area. Loss of sensation too.

No downtime or prolonged side effects come with the slimming treatment. Occasionally a temporary numbness and redness in the treatment area (same day), along with slight muscle soreness and increased urination. It’s important to increase water intake for the lymphatic system to remove the fat cells.

Avoid getting too hot and exercise for a week after each treatment.

Clients can continue with their usual routines including exercise with the exception of 2 hours straight after treatment.

Chin slimming injections can cause very noticeable swelling initially that is hard to hide, as well as track lines.

Cryostar Double Chin slimming is one of the treatments that a client can notice a result straight away. There is no down time and the area can also be toned 1 week after or it can be combined with a CryoFacial.

Loose skin - in the treated areas, as skin loses fat cells and pockets of fat. Recommended to follow with a skin tightening treatment - adding to treatment cost, downtime between treatments needs to be included, not exposing to exercise etc.

Cryostar also offers Toning treatments so a client that notices loss can alternate their sessions weekly between Slimming and Toning. Some areas that a client expected to be Slimming may indeed only require Toning - a technician will discuss this during the initial consultation.

Don't expect instant results, can take from 9 weeks up to 3 months.

Results can be seen straight after the first treatment and will progress over the 2 weeks following. Onboarding more water will emphasise this more as well as adding in additional services to drain the lymphatic system.

Up to 90 minutes per treatment.

Up to 35 minutes per treatment.

Not a ‘go to’ treatment for larger areas like saddle bags, thighs - expense of multiple vials, sessions needed and too high cost .

CryoSlimming is perfect for stubborn areas of fat that will not reduce with exercise and diet alone. Depending on the density of the area the treatment will cover a larger body part no problem.
