CRISTAL Pro® Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing Treatment
Stubborn fat pockets can be difficult to reduce, even with regular exercise and a healthy diet. Areas such as the abdomen, love handles, thighs, arms, bra-line fat and double chin may remain resistant despite lifestyle efforts.
At Dr Bob Clinic, CRISTAL Pro® Cryolipolysis offers a non-surgical fat freezing treatment designed to target localised fat and refine body contours with minimal to no downtime. Each treatment is personalised based on your body shape, fat distribution and aesthetic goals.

What Is CRISTAL Pro® Cryolipolysis?
CRISTAL Pro® Cryolipolysis is an advanced fat freezing treatment that uses controlled cooling to target localised fat deposits beneath the skin. The treatment is based on the principle that fat cells are more sensitive to cold temperatures than surrounding skin, nerves and muscle tissue.
During the treatment, the selected fat area is gently drawn into a specialised applicator and exposed to precise cooling. This process causes targeted fat cells to crystallise and gradually break down. Over the following weeks, the body naturally processes and clears these treated fat cells through its metabolic and lymphatic systems.
Unlike weight-loss treatments, CRISTAL Pro® is designed for body contouring. It is most suitable for individuals who are close to their ideal body weight but want to reduce stubborn fat in specific areas.
How CRISTAL Pro® Fat Freezing Works
CRISTAL Pro® Cryolipolysis works by cooling the targeted fat layer to a controlled temperature. This triggers a natural biological process known as apoptosis, where treated fat cells are gradually broken down and eliminated by the body.
Phase 1: Clinical Assessment & Treatment Planning
Your treatment begins with a consultation and body assessment. Our team will evaluate the target area, fat thickness and treatment suitability before recommending a personalised treatment plan.
Phase 2: Controlled Fat Freezing
The CRISTAL Pro® applicator is placed on the selected treatment area. The device gently suctions the localised fat into the applicator and delivers controlled cooling to the targeted fat layer. A protective gel membrane is used to protect the skin during the session.
Phase 3: Natural Fat Cell Breakdown
After the fat cells are exposed to controlled cooling, the body begins a natural elimination process. The treated fat cells are gradually processed by the immune system over the next few weeks.
Phase 4: Gradual Body Contouring Result
As the treated fat cells are cleared, the fat layer in the treated area gradually reduces. Visible improvement may appear progressively, with more noticeable contour refinement usually seen over several weeks to a few months.

Why Choose Dr Bob Clinic for CRISTAL Pro® Cryolipolysis
At Dr Bob Clinic, body contouring is approached with clinical assessment, personalised planning and attention to natural-looking results. Our team evaluates your treatment areas carefully before recommending a suitable fat freezing plan.
Medical-Led Body Contouring Approach
Our team assesses your fat distribution, body proportion and treatment goals before recommending a suitable plan. This helps ensure that the treatment is targeted, realistic and aligned with your expected outcome.
Advanced CRISTAL Pro® Technology
CRISTAL Pro® is designed with multiple applicators to accommodate different body areas and contours. This allows treatment to be customised according to the shape, size and location of the fat pocket being targeted.
Ultrasound-Guided Assessment
Where suitable, ultrasound assessment may be used to evaluate the fat layer and support treatment planning. This helps our team better understand the targeted area before determining the appropriate treatment approach.
Comfortable Clinical Environment
Treatment is carried out in a professional, calm setting with patient comfort and safety as priorities.
What to Expect During and After Treatment
- • During the session, a protective gel membrane is applied before the applicator is placed on the treatment area. You may feel firm suction and intense cold during the first few minutes. As the area becomes numb, the sensation usually becomes more comfortable. • A typical session may take around 45 to 60 minutes per area, depending on the number of zones treated and your personalised plan.
What to Expect After Treatment
• After CRISTAL Pro® Cryolipolysis, the treated area may appear red, swollen, firm, bruised or slightly numb. Some patients may also experience tingling, tenderness or itchiness. These effects are usually temporary and improve gradually. • It is normal for the area to feel slightly bloated or swollen at first. This is part of the body’s natural response as it begins to process the treated fat cells.Recovery Timeline
• Days 1 – 3: The area may feel tender, firm, swollen or slightly numb. Wear loose clothing and avoid tight pressure over the treated area. • Days 4 – 10: Swelling, tingling or itchiness may be more noticeable. Stay hydrated and maintain light movement to support circulation. • Weeks 2 – 3: Swelling and firmness usually begin to settle as the tissue softens and the body continues clearing treated fat cells. • Weeks 4 – 12: Visible contour improvement may become more noticeable as the treated fat cells are gradually processed by the body.Common Treatment Areas
CRISTAL Pro® Cryolipolysis can be used on different areas where pinchable, localised fat is present, including:
• Abdomen
• Flanks / love handles
• Inner and outer thighs
• Back and bra-line fat
• Upper arms
• Double chin
Suitability depends on your body condition and will be assessed during consultation.

FAQs
When Will I See Results?
Results appear gradually. Some patients may notice changes within a few weeks, while more visible contour refinement is commonly seen after 8 to 12 weeks.
Results may vary depending on fat thickness, treatment area, metabolism, lifestyle and the number of sessions recommended.
How Many Sessions Do I Need?
Some patients may see improvement after one session, while others may benefit from additional sessions for more refined results. A second session may be recommended after 8 to 12 weeks, depending on your treatment response and body contouring goals.
