Cooltech in Medellín
Cooltech is a cryolipolysis treatment for localized fat, without surgery. By applying controlled cold, it gradually eliminates adipocytes (fat cells) without damaging the surrounding tissue, which is what reshapes the contour of the treated area.
It is aimed at people who, despite a balanced diet and regular physical activity, find certain fat deposits hard to shift in specific areas of the body.
Benefits of Cooltech
Non-invasive, no surgery
Cooltech works on localized fat without surgery, anaesthesia or recovery time, which is why it is often chosen by patients who do not want — or cannot have — a surgical procedure.
Localized fat
It is designed for resistant fat deposits in specific areas, to shape the silhouette in that area without affecting the rest.
Gradual results
As the body clears the fat cells, the reduction happens progressively, which gives the skin time to adapt to the new contour.
Well tolerated
Cooltech uses controlled cooling that protects the skin and surrounding tissue. During the session there is a sensation of intense cold and suction, which eases as the area adjusts to the temperature.
A lasting effect
The fat cells eliminated do not regenerate, so the effect lasts — provided weight is maintained, because the remaining cells elsewhere can still expand.
Skin adapts to the new contour
Because the reduction is gradual, the skin retracts progressively rather than all at once. How much it adapts depends on your skin quality, which is one of the things assessed beforehand.
Where Cooltech can be applied
Cooltech can be applied to different areas of the body to reduce localized fat and work on the body contour.

Frequently asked questions about Cooltech
How many sessions are needed?
It depends on the area and on how much localized fat there is. In most cases 1 to 3 sessions per area are recommended, roughly 6 weeks apart.
When do results appear?
Changes start to be visible 4 to 6 weeks after the session, because the body needs time to clear the fat cells. The final result is usually seen over 2 to 3 months.
Does it hurt?
Cooltech is generally well tolerated. At the start there is a sensation of intense cold and suction in the treated area, which eases quickly as the skin adjusts to the temperature.
What is the aftercare?
- Avoid intense massage or pressure on the treated area for the first 24 hours.
- Keep well hydrated, which is how the body clears the fat cells.
- Keep a balanced diet, which is part of the result.
- Avoid extreme temperatures such as saunas or very hot baths for the first few days.
Is Cooltech a weight-loss treatment?
No. Cooltech is designed to reduce localized fat and work on the body contour; it does not replace weight loss. It is for people who already keep a healthy lifestyle and want to treat specific areas where fat accumulates.
Are the results permanent?
The fat cells that are eliminated do not regenerate. Keeping healthy habits still matters, because fat can be stored in other areas of the body afterwards.
