Applicators and 360° cooling

The number and shape of applicators determine which zones you can treat: abdomen, flanks, thighs or upper arms. With 360° cooling the cooling surface surrounds the drawn-in tissue on all sides for an even distribution of cold. Several applicators at once save time in your schedule.

Safety and consumables

Look for precise temperature control, sensors in the applicator and automatic shut-off. Every application needs a protective membrane. Clarify supply and delivery times for this consumable in advance.

Legal situation and combinations

Cryolipolysis works with cold and is not explicitly named in the NiSV. If in doubt, have the classification of your device confirmed by the competent authority. Many studios combine cryolipolysis with muscle stimulation for a complete body offer. HIFEM devices are covered by the NiSV with notification and certified expertise.

Checklist before you buy

  1. How many applicators run at the same time?
  2. Which body zones do the applicators cover?
  3. How is temperature monitored?
  4. How are protective membranes reordered?
  5. Are training and treatment protocols included?

Frequently asked questions

How long does a cryolipolysis session take?

It depends on the zone and programme. With several applicators you treat several zones in parallel and save time.

Do I need NiSV certified expertise for cryolipolysis?

Cold-based methods are not explicitly named in the NiSV. If in doubt, clarify the classification of your device with the competent authority.

Is the device available in white or black?

Yes, we supply all devices with either a white or a black housing.
