How To Fat Freeze at Home and Should You Do It?

As the popularity of fat freezing continues to grow, people are seeking out cheaper alternatives on how to freeze away fat at home.

Fat freeze is a non-invasive procedure that uses cooling technology for stubborn fat loss. The machine freezes excess fat cells causing cell death. These dead fat cells get eliminated from the body through natural elimination systems. Celebrities use it to keep their bodies looking good.

In this blog post, we will discuss the different ways people fat freeze at home and whether it is safe and effective.

Common Ways People Try To Fat Freeze At Home

1) Ice Packs

When you think of freezing fat cells at home you might think of using ice packs. Some have tried placing it on their arms, thighs, stomach, and chin in hopes that it will reduce the growth of subcutaneous fats. But you should not do it as this method does not work. Ice alone is insufficient in reaching the ideal temperature of -8 degrees to freeze fat cells.

2) Lipo-Belt

Lipo-belt is a popular home fat-freezing method. Some of these belts use temperature pads, while others are fitted with cold packs and strapped around the waist. They claimed to induce a cold temperature which illicit fat cell death. However, the temperature of these belts is not regulated to a precise degree, causing it to be too cold which damages the skin, or too warm to freeze the fats. It is unlikely that you will achieve your desired results from it, hence, you should avoid buying a lipo-belt.

3) Purchase Fat Freezing Device At Home

Purchasing fat-freezing devices at home may potentially work, but it is not without risks and inconvenience. There are a few factors to be considered here.

Firstly, it is crucial to have someone with the skills to help you put it on. Since you are working with negative temperatures, you can potentially burn your skin and cause irreversible damage. A professional would have a better idea of which areas of your body to place the device and how long the device should be left on the skin.

Secondly, it is very costly to own one of these devices. A device that may work can cost up to a few thousand dollars. Furthermore, it is expensive to buy fat-freeze membranes individually. Beauty stores typically buy it in bulk to reduce the cost of treatment.

Lastly, you will have to do your research on which membrane to purchase. These gel-like membranes are laid on the skin before the fat freeze applicator is applied. It is important to use a high-quality fat freeze membrane as it protects you from skin damage and frostbite.

If you would like to use a fat-freezing machine at home, make sure you do it in a safe manner as it can potentially result in a lot of harm, if done incorrectly.
