Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing near NW Calgary
Cryolipolysis, commonly known as Fat Freezing, is a non-surgical body contouring treatment that permanently destroys stubborn fat cells using precisely controlled cooling. The treatment targets pockets of fat that resist diet and exercise — such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, upper arms, and chin — without needles, surgery, or any recovery time. The destroyed fat cells are gradually processed and eliminated by the body’s natural lymphatic system over 8–12 weeks.
What is Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing?
Cryolipolysis, commonly known as Fat Freezing, is a non-surgical body contouring treatment that permanently destroys stubborn fat cells using precisely controlled cooling. The treatment targets pockets of fat that resist diet and exercise — such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, upper arms, and chin — without needles, surgery, or any recovery time.

At Bella Donna Beauty in Calgary, cryolipolysis fat freezing is performed by certified practitioners using professional-grade equipment — ensuring every client receives a safe, effective, and comfortable treatment experience from start to finish.
How Does Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing Work?
During a Cryolipolysis session, a applicator is placed on the treatment area. The device draws the targeted tissue between two cooling panels and brings the fat cells to a temperature of approximately −11°C. At this temperature, fat cells crystallise and undergo a process called apoptosis (programmed cell death), while the surrounding skin, nerves, and muscle tissue remain completely unharmed — fat cells are uniquely vulnerable to cold. Over the following 8–12 weeks, your immune system removes the crystallised cells naturally through the lymphatic system, reducing the fat layer by up to 25% per session.
Benefits of Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing

- Treats abdomen, love handles, thighs, upper arms, bra fat, double chin
- Up to 25% reduction in fat layer per session
- Walk in, walk out — most clients return to normal activities immediately
- Long-lasting results maintained with a stable lifestyle
Who is Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing Right For?
Cryolipolysis is best suited for clients who are at or near their ideal body weight but have localised pockets of stubborn fat that do not respond to exercise and healthy eating. It is not a weight-loss solution for obesity — it is a precision body contouring tool. It is not suitable during pregnancy, or for clients with cryoglobulinemia, cold agglutinin disease, or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria. Your Bella Donna practitioner will assess your suitability at a free consultation.
What to Expect: Sessions & Results
Results develop gradually over 8–12 weeks as your body processes the destroyed fat cells. Many clients see noticeable slimming from a single session. For more significant or multi-area contouring, 2–3 sessions per area are common. There is typically mild redness, numbness, or tingling in the treated area for a few days post-treatment — all normal and temporary.
Typical course: 1–3 sessions per area, spaced 8 weeks apart

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Cryolipolysis work?
Cryolipolysis uses controlled cooling to freeze fat cells at -11°C. The frozen cells crystallise and are naturally eliminated by your body over 8–12 weeks, reducing fat in the treated area by up to 25%.
Is fat freezing permanent?
Yes — fat cells that are frozen and eliminated do not grow back. As long as you maintain a stable weight, results are permanent.
How many sessions do I need?
Many clients achieve their goals in 1–2 sessions per area. Larger or more stubborn areas may benefit from a third session, typically spaced 8 weeks apart.
