1. What is the main reason behind my tummy fat?

Generally, fat on your body builds up when you continuously consume more energy (read: calories) than your body is expanding. This causes you to store the excess energy as fat throughout your body, including your belly.

2. What makes it a challenge to remove tummy fat even with exercise and a good diet?

What makes belly fat different is that it has a higher quantity of fat cells that do not respond easily to the fat-breakdown process called lipolysis. Our bodies carry two types of fat cells: alpha and beta. Belly fat primarily consists of beta, which is way less responsive to lipolysis than alpha. This is why when you exercise and eat right, you notice fat removal in your arms, legs, and face — all of which have more alpha. It can be rather difficult to remove excess flab from your belly, hips and thighs because these regions contain more beta.

3. Are there any other lifestyle habits that affect my ability to remove tummy fat?

There are many other factors that contribute to excess fat. Consistent lack of quality sleep can cause your body to generate more ghrelin, the hormone that stimulates hunger pangs and hence, may lead you to overeat. Similarly, when you are stressed out, your body will produce a hormone called cortisol, which causes a dip in your blood sugar level. Therefore, high stress levels can make you crave sugary and fatty foods, which are absolutely detrimental to your waistline.

4. Can age impede my journey to remove tummy fat?

Age also plays a part as your metabolic rate will tend to slow down as you get older.

5. Do genetics affect my efforts to remove tummy fat?

Yes, some people naturally have a slower metabolism than others due to genetics.

6. Should I opt for surgery to help me remove tummy fat?

While many people might think about surgery, such procedures do pose several risks. Besides the potential of anaesthesia complications, a tummy tuck procedure can present risks such as bleeding, infection, poor wound healing, scarring, prolonged swelling and an asymmetrical appearance.

7. If surgery is too risky, what safe, non-invasive ways are available to help me remove my love handles?

Experience our revolutionary treatment for yourself. This method is totally non-invasive, and you do not even need sedation for the procedure. It simply uses coldness to crystallise and remove fat cells in your abdominal region.

8. With the use of suction and cold temperature, is this revolutionary treatment to remove tummy fat painful?

No, it is not. During the procedure, you may feel a slight pulling sensation on your skin upon contact with the applicator. However, within 10 minutes of the cooling process, the area on your belly will begin to feel numb. You can then relax with a book or magazine throughout the painless procedure.

9. Is there downtime after going for this treatment to remove tummy fat?

The great thing about our body sculpting treatment is that it requires absolutely no downtime. The area might feel slightly tender or numb for several days post-treatment, but it generally will not disrupt your everyday life and exercise routines. With that said, you may want to consider wearing more comfortable clothing and avoid pressure on your stomach area for up to a month following the session.

10. How effective are the results after I go for this treatment to remove tummy fat?

The results are significantly effective. The fascinating thing about your fat cells is that after puberty, the stem cell functions that have been enabling its production will switch off. This means that the quantity you have as a young adult is generally equivalent to the quantity you have for the rest of your life. As you gain or lose weight, they can either grow or shrink but the number will not change. During the cryolipolysis, at least 20% of the fat cells in your targeted area will be flushed out.
