Start with the fat characteristics of the area that concerns you
Zlipo combines controlled cooling with suction for localised fat management. Fat thickness, skin laxity and applicator fit are assessed before planning the treatment area, giving your concerns a clearer treatment direction.
- Controlled cooling and suction
- Approximately 70 minutes per treatment
- Currently offered at the Kinmen branch
Localised cooling, not whole-body weight loss
Assessment and treatment focus on localised subcutaneous fat. This is not whole-body weight loss or a treatment for visceral fat. The cause of a contour concern needs to be identified rather than judging by weight alone.
Applicator fit matters
Fat thickness, the area that can be drawn into the applicator, skin laxity and body shape affect planning. If loose skin or muscle support is the main concern, cooling alone may not be the appropriate approach.
Allow around 70 minutes for the treatment
The clinic lists approximately 70 minutes for one treatment; assessment and preparation require additional time. Confirm arrangements when booking multiple areas or different applicators.
Observe changes gradually
Suction-related pulling, cold or numbness may be felt during treatment. Visible changes require follow-up and continued weight and lifestyle management rather than relying on measurements taken on the treatment day.
Frequently asked questions
What should I mention before treatment?
Tell the clinic about unusual reactions to cold, a history of cold-related conditions, skin problems in the area, previous surgery and other health concerns.
Will I need recovery time?
Some people experience local redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness or numbness, with varying recovery times. Discuss important events beforehand and allow time for aftercare and observation.
Does treatment prevent future weight gain?
No such guarantee can be made. Weight changes can still affect appearance. Treatment does not replace diet, activity and long-term weight management.
Where can I book?
Treatment is currently offered at the Kinmen branch. Mention the area of concern when booking and confirm equipment and physician availability.
