- 1 Area – Lower Centre Stomach
- 1 Area – Upper Centre Stomach
- 2 Areas – Lower & Upper Centre Stomach
- 2 Areas – Love Handles | Sides of Stomach | Hips
- 2 Areas – Male Chest (1 applicator on each area)
- 4 Areas – Inner & Outer Thighs (1 applicator on each area)
- 4 Areas – 2 Upper & 2 Lower Stomach (Belly Blaster)
Frequently Asked Questions
It sure does, but don’t take our word for it, check out our testimonials. Please note that clients have different personal circumstances and taking into account that clients react in differently to Cryolipolysis treatment, results vary from person to person. Aztec Tan & Spa cannot guarantee specific results, however, on average each Cryolipolysis treatment session can result in a 30% reduction of fat (see resources page). Aztec Tan & Spa stands by evidence based treatments, therefore we encourage all of our clients to look into Cryolipolysis case studies prior to their treatment. There is significant research that proves the effectiveness of Cryolipolysis treatment and this can be seen by clicking onto our resources page.
No, the great thing about Cryolipolysis treatment is that you can go about your day as normal straight after treatment. Aztec Tan & Spa do advise that you increase your water intake by 2 – 3 litres, practice regular body brushing and follow all aftercare advice given to you. This will help flush out the dead fat cells through the lymphatic system and improve your health and well-being.
