cryo-thermo-treatment for aesthetics

The application of heat and cold, a non-invasive and innovative aesthetic treatment, improves the psycho-physical well-being of our body.

After many years of experience in the field of rehabilitation and physiotherapy, and after in-depth studies of scientific literature, the qmd® team has created the division qmd® aesthetics.

Cryolipolysis

Cryolipolysis was developed by the researchers Prof. Dr. D. Manstein and Dr. R. Rox Anderson
of Harvard University in the 1970s. Meanwhile, hundreds of other studies show the special
effects of this non-invasive technology.

• What is it? In cold therapy, the user applies a massage with a handpiece to ensure skin
  cooling. The underlying adipose tissue cools down from +1 to +4 °C, causing a consequent
  breakdown of the fat cells.
• How long is a treatment? The treatment of a body region lasts about 30 to 60 minutes
  and usually leads to a reduction in fat of about 20 – 25%.
• How many treatments are necessary? Studies show that 73% of customers are
  already satisfied with the result after only one application, but it is often advised to
  repeat the treatment.
• What happens with fat cells? Fat tissue does not disappear in a short time. The
  destroyed fat cells are broken down for several weeks after treatment and transported
  away by the lymphatic system and finally expelled.
• After how long do you see the final result? This process can take 2 to 3 months to
  reach the final result.
• What are the (potential) risks? Cryolipolysis can cause mild side effects, but studies have shown that fat cells react more sensitively to treatment with cold, and that neither the skin, nor muscles and tendons would be affected by this treatment.
• What groups of people can be treated? Cryolipolysis is especially suitable for people suffering from moderate fat deposits. Usually the areas of the body where it is difficult to lose weight are treated, the most popular areas include hips, thighs, regio glutaea, abdomen, legs and arms.
