If you’re eating well, staying active, and still finding that certain areas of fat won’t shift, our fat freezing treatment in Bristol offers a non-surgical way to target stubborn fat and improve body contour.


At Este Medical Group Bristol, located in Queen Square, we use CoolTech® cryolipolysis, a CE-marked fat freezing system designed to reduce localised fat deposits using carefully controlled cooling technology.


Fat freezing is intended for contour refinement — not weight loss — and is most suitable for individuals who are close to their target weight but want to address resistant pockets of fat.

What Is Fat Freezing (Cryolipolysis)?

Cryolipolysis is a non-invasive fat reduction method that uses controlled cooling to target fat cells beneath the skin.


Fat cells are more sensitive to cold than surrounding tissues. When exposed to precise cooling, targeted fat cells begin a gradual breakdown process. Over the following weeks, the body naturally processes and eliminates these treated fat cells.


Once removed, treated fat cells do not regenerate.


Fat freezing is not designed for significant weight loss. It is a body contouring treatment aimed at improving shape in specific areas.

Why Choose CoolTech® Cryolipolysis in Bristol?

CoolTech® is a CE-marked cryolipolysis system designed for consistent and controlled cooling during treatment.
