How Does 4D-Cryo Combined Thermal Shock and EMS “Fat Freezing” Centimeter Loss Work?
At Flab-u-less Fat-Freezing & Slimming Aesthetics, we use the latest advancement in non-invasive aesthetic technology, developed and proven by scientists at the Harvard Medical School! Our new 4D-Cryo equipment are delivered by the latest 4D-Cryo (Fat-freezing) platform.
These treatments offer a combination of Thermal Shock and EMS (Electro Mechanical Stimulation), the next generation in “fat freezing” (also known as Cryogenic Lipolysis) to deliver truly amazing centimeter loss, WITHOUT the need to exercise!*
Our new and most advanced 4D Cryo Centimeter Loss treatment utilises a constant temperature controlled process to apply thermal shock, which warms, then cools the fat layer under the skin to deliver the “fat freezing” therapy known as Cryogenic Lipolysis (a process developed and proven by scientists at the Harvard Medical School), before finally warming the skin once more. This is combined with EMS, or Electro-Mechanical Stimulation, which applies small electrical impulses to the muscles causing them to contract and relax rapidly.
The EMS function acts to both exercise the muscles and promote blood flow during the fat freezing process for amazing centimeter loss results.

All of this is achieved without any need for vacuum pressure as used by traditional, older “Fat Freezing” devices, thereby making this a more comfortable treatment with no bruising or after effects.
Best delivered as a course of 2 successive treatments, with the second treatment following 14-21 days after the first, for optimal results.
Each individual treatment covers a far larger area than traditional “Fat Freezing”, such as the whole front of the abdomen, or both flanks, both arms, both inner thighs, etc. providing far better value for money.
This causes the following effects:
- Fat layer is reduced by up to 25%
- Muscles are toned and tightened
- No pain, recovery or down-time
What is Thermal Shock?
This is the next evolution of traditional Cryogenic Lipolysis and uses a constant temperature controlled process to first heat the tissue to increase bloodflow, then cools the tissues to achieve the Cryogenic Lipolysis objective of cellular apoptosis (cellular death) in the adipose layer (fat cells), before warming the tissue once more to reduce inflammation, stimulate bloodflow and increase lymphatic drainage.
The more commonly referred to term of “Cryolipolysis” is an acronym (abbreviated version) of this correct medical term and has been registered as a trademark by the manufacturers of the Coolsculpting technology, Zeltiq Inc. In order to avoid confusion and ensure the correct terminology is used, we will always refer to Cryolipolysis by its full and correct name, “Cryogenic Lipolysis”.
The adipocyte (fat) cells that are targeted by Cryogenic Lipolysis (or “Fat Freezing”, as it is also commonly known) are typically rich with saturated fatty acids. These types of cells are particularly sensitive to cold, which is why this cooling technology is so effective. Other cells, such as skin tissue, blood vessels, nervous system and so on, are not so sensitive to freezing and so remain completely unaffected by this treatment. As a result, it’s perfectly safe to use and is extremely effective.
Our new 4D-Cryo platform goes several steps further in improving the results and comfort of this treatment from traditional “Fat Freezing”!



THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO NEEDLES OR INJECTIONS. NOTHING ENTERS THE BODY AS THIS IS AN ENTIRELY NON-INVASIVE PROCESS THAT WORKS IN HARMONY WITH YOUR NORMAL BIOLOGICAL PROCESSES.
Large numbers of swollen fat cells (adipocytes) are stored underneath the skin. These pockets of fat are often difficult to target with dieting and may require substantial exercise to reduce.
What is EMS?
Electro Muscular Stimulation, or “EMS”, uses small electrical impulses, delivered through the surface of the skin, to stimulate the mucles in the treatment area. This is applied throughout the entire 4D-Cryo treatment to promote a number of effects :
- Stimulates bloodflow and lymphatic drainage
- Exercises the muscles, increases metabolic rate and calorific demand
- Tones the muscles, strengthening and improving flexibility
Working alongside the Thermal Shock aspect fo the 4D-Cryo treatments, EMS enables instant centimeter loss from your 4D-Cryo treatment session for the majority of clients!
4D-Cryo Treatments
An anti-freeze membrane is applied to protect the surface of the skin.
The 4D-Cryo plates, of which there are 6 (3 per machine), provide coverage of large areas in a single treatment and are applied to multiple areas in a single (less than 60 minutes) session. All you do is lie there in comfort and enjoy the treatment.
You are free to read, listen to music, or simply relax.

The 4D-Cryo plates selectively warm, then cool the adipose layer, causing the lipids within the cells to form ice crystals. These ice crystals permeate the cell membrane allowing ions to pass freely across the membrane, causing an ionic imbalance, thereby resulting in cellular death (apoptosis).
Meanwhile, Electro Muscular Stimulation is also applied throughout treatment by the 4D-Cryo plates, exercising the muscles to increase bloodflow and provide immediate results, something traditional “Fat Freezing” alone simply cannot achieve!
Only the fat cells are frozen, as their contents are more susceptible to cooling than the surrounding tissues. Therefore, there is no damage or risk to the surrounding structures. The new 4D-Cryo (3-in-1 Fat-freezing) platform does all this without vacuum pressure, meaning, unlike traditional “Fat Freezing” treatments, there is no pinching, pain or bruising from the suction.
End Result
You may achieve centimeter loss from the first treatment within the first 2-3 weeks but most of time you only start seeing results after the second month. Over the next 8-12 weeks, the adipocyte cells die and are broken down and removed by the body’s natural processes, resulting in smoother skin and a reduction of up to 25% of the fat layer in the treated area!

* DISCLAIMER
Results can vary and there are many factors that effect the results achieved by each individual customer, including but not limited to lifestyle, age, diet, medical conditions, etc. A healthy lifestyle including exercise and smaller portions of nutrient dense foods are still recommended to speed up the process. As such, we are not able to provide guaranteed results. We will commit to engaging with you as a customer to achieve the best results possible in your given situation. It is of utmost importance that 2 litres of water must be consumed per day to increase the bodily function of flushing out the destroyed fat cells.
