CoolSculpting, also known as cryolipolysis, is a non-invasive procedure used to eliminate fat cells in specific areas of the body. During the procedure, fat cells are cooled to very low temperatures, which selectively freezes and damages them, without affecting the surrounding tissues. But how does the body eliminate these frozen fat cells after CoolSculpting treatment?
After CoolSculpting, the body initiates a natural process of eliminating the damaged fat cells. This process is known as apoptosis or programmed cell death. Once the fat cells are frozen, an inflammatory response is triggered that attracts white blood cells and other immune system cells to the treated area.
In the weeks following the procedure, macrophages, which are immune system cells, begin to surround the frozen fat cells. These macrophages release enzymes that break down the damaged fat cells into smaller particles. As this occurs, the fat particles become encapsulated and are gradually transported through the lymphatic system to the liver.
Once the fat particles reach the liver, they are metabolized and eliminated from the body naturally. The liver processes them like any other fat consumed through food. Subsequently, the fat particles are eliminated from the body through normal metabolic processes, such as waste elimination in the form of feces and urine.
It is important to note that the process of eliminating the frozen fat cells takes time. CoolSculpting results are not immediate and are usually seen gradually over several weeks or months after treatment. In addition, a healthy lifestyle including a balanced diet and regular exercise is recommended to maximize and maintain the results of the procedure.
