Sculpt Your Body with Fat Freezing
The Safe & Effective Solution for Men
Fat Freezing (CoolSculpting®️) for Men
When it comes to negative body image stereotypes, men are definitely not immune. From "dad bod" jokes to "man boobs" and "moobs" men face their own challenges when trying to improve their appearance. While living a healthy life is still important, sometimes we still end up with stubborn fat deposits despite our best efforts. CoolSculpting®️ or fat freezing is the gold standard non-invasive way to get rid of fat without surgery.
Fat freezing (also known as Cryolipolysis or Coolsculpting®️) is just as effective on men as it is on women. The process of fat freezing is the application of cooling temperatures via an applicator or pad onto the skin and underlying subcutaneous fat layer being exposed to the minus- 9* C temperatures. After this extended exposure the subcutaneous fat cells die and the damaged fat cells are recognised by the body’s natural immune and repair system where by the cells are swept up into the lymphatic system, processed in the liver and then expelled from the body (via the toilet).
Although there is a common body composition fat difference between men and women and despite men tending to have a higher visceral fat amount than women, men still have enough subcutaneous fat layers and areas that are perfect for fat freezing or CoolSculpting®️ treatment.
How Does Fat Freezing Work for Men?
Fat freezing works by exposing areas of excess fat to extremely low temperatures, causing the fat cells to freeze and die. The body then naturally eliminates these dead fat cells, leading to a reduction in the size of the treated area. The procedure is performed using a specially designed device that delivers controlled cooling to the target area. Most fat freezing sessions last between 40 minutes to 60 minutes depending on the thickness of the subcutaneous fat in the treatment area.
Benefits of Fat Freezing for Men
Non-invasive: Unlike liposuction and other surgical procedures, fat freezing is completely non-invasive and does not require any incisions or downtime. This makes it a convenient option for busy men who want to look and feel their best.
Safe and Effective: Fat freezing has been extensively tested and is considered a safe and effective way to remove unwanted fat. The procedure has been used for over a decade and has helped countless men achieve their desired body shape.
Customisable: Fat freezing can be customized to meet the specific needs and goals of each individual man. The procedure can be performed on a variety of areas, including the abdomen, love handles, back, and chest.
Permanent Results: The results of fat freezing are permanent as the body cannot produce new fat cells to replace the ones that have been eliminated. With proper diet and exercise, the results of the procedure will be visible forever.
Side Effects of Fat Freezing
Fat freezing is a safe and well-tolerated procedure, with very few side effects. Some men may experience temporary redness, swelling, or bruising in the treated area, but these symptoms typically resolve on their own within a few days. In rare cases, some men may experience numbness or tingling in the treated area, but this is also temporary and will resolve over time.

Like all cosmetic and medical treatments there are some serious side effects, however these are not dangerous to your health. A personalised consultation whereby your subcutaneous tissue is assessed, your past medical history including surgery are considered to ensure you are suitable for treatment and your risk profile will be discussed.
The Main Areas for Fat Freezing Treatment in Men:
Abdomen Fat Freezing in Men
The amount of visceral fat can often be confused with subcutaneous fat in men. High visceral fat tends to create the body shape described as an apple (with the tight pot like belly). It is important to accurately identify the type of fat in the abdominal area as the amount of visceral and subcutaneous fat can affect the success of the fat freezing procedure.
The assessment in our fat freezing Melbourne clinic or via video can ascertain the amount of subcutaneous fat cells in the abdominal area and therefore your suitability for treatment.

Depending on the size of the jaw, the amount of fat present and the desired outcomes - a double chin treatment will generally include a single or double handle treatment. Generally a minimum of 2 handles (one each size with a small cross over in the center is required to avoid emphasizing or creating jowls.

Often called Man Boobs - fat freezing is a perfect treatment for this tissue and area to provide a more desired shape. Depending on the amount of fat (or depth of the subcutaneous fat cells), a single treatment may be required or a repeat treatment, which can be conducted at a minimum of 30 days.
Fat Freezing men Inner and Outer Thighs.
Treatment on inner and outer thighs is also a popular choice for men, however it is more common for men to require inner thigh treatment than outer thigh treatment. Genetically men to do have as much tissue on the outer side of their thighs as women do so the ‘saddle bag’ complaint is not normally a male complaint. Click here for more information.
“I have been struggling with my weight, especially my belly and my man boobs for many years. I was embarrassed to take my top off at the beach or pool. Now that I have had fat freezing, I’m confident in myself. I just wish I had known about it and done it earlier.”
