Fat freezing, also known as cryolipolysis, is designed to permanently remove up to 30% of fat cells each session, especially stubborn fat that sticks around even with dieting and exercise. Effective, non-surgical, and with zero downtime, controlled cooling is applied to target areas, which freezes fat cells without damaging the surrounding tissue. With every session, your body lets go of what it doesn’t need through the lymphatic system.
With technological advancements, particularly with Clatuu, freezing fat is now not only more accessible and affordable, but you’ll start seeing the results in 4 to 6 weeks. Whether it’s your tummy, thighs, arms, or chin, this treatment helps reshape trouble spots so you’ll leave feeling more like yourself.

How our fret-free fat freeze process goes:
- A vacuum applicator is placed over the treatment area, where the device gently cools the fat layer to -9°C.
- The cooling energy treats this area with zero damage to surrounding cells.
- Fat cells can’t hold up in this temperature. They crystallise and break down, where your body naturally flushes them out over 12 weeks.
- Does freezing fat work? Results show up to 30% permanent fat cell loss in the treated area.
Don’t just take our word for it – our fat freezing before and after images speak for themselves.
- No needles and completely non-invasive, fat freezing is free from the risks that come with surgery.
- Unlike diet and exercise, this treatment goes beyond shrinking fat cells to permanently eliminate them.
- Quick sessions, running for 40 to 60 minutes with no pre- or post-treatment downtime.
- We can target multiple hard-to-reach areas that other treatments can’t, including your armpits, neck and mons pubis.
- Our exclusive ARC-T Applicator is designed with a curved shape to ensure comprehensive coverage from your outer to inner thigh and even fat reduction.
- A way to reclaim your confidence, especially when your body’s been trying its hardest. Fat freezing therapy isn’t just about the external shift, but about an inner one too.

To help you feel your best, we offer the best. Our fat freeze studio uses the Clatuu 360° technology, one of the most scientifically advanced cryolipolysis machines available.
Why does that matter? This Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing device not only reduces up to 30% of fat cells with each treatment, but the difference shows in as little as 6 weeks.
- Dual Body Applicators: Most machines only treat one area at a time, but ours saves time by treating both sides simultaneously.
- 360° Coverage: Cooling wraps the entire area, reaching more fat cells, reducing treatment time, and giving more effective results.
- Fast Sessions: Treatment times are typically 40 to 60 minutes, made to fit around your life, not the other way around.
- Results That Wow: Most fat freeze machines take 12 weeks to show their best, but Clatuu clients often start seeing results from 4 to 6 weeks.
- Competitive Prices: Feeling good in your body shouldn’t be out of reach. That’s why our pricing is structured to work for real budgets, big or small.
- Trusted by Thousands: We’ve helped over 40,000 clients transform their bodies and shapeshift their lives, ensuring expertise at every interaction.
Fat freezing can reduce stubborn pockets of fat immune to diet and exercise, but a little prep on your part goes a long way. Here are a few simple tips.
- Skip Alcohol & Caffeine: Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before and after your session, and take a break from caffeine for 2 hours either side of your appointment.
- Hydration is Key: Your body clears out dead fat cells via the lymphatic system, so give it what it needs to do the job. We recommend drinking at least 2 litres of water the day before, the day of, and after your treatment.

IS FAT FREEZING FOR ME?
At Body Catalyst, we believe that the most powerful thing you can wear is a positive self-image. And we’re here to help support your body through change that empowers you.
If you’re dealing with fat that sticks around no matter how clean you eat or how often you go to the gym, fat freezing can be a step towards feeling at home in your own skin. Not by changing who you are, but with science-backed care and a plan tailored to you.
Whether you’re dealing with post-baby tummy or double chin blues, cryolipolysis fat freezing can treat a wide range of areas, including outer and inner thighs, banana rolls, knees, back bra strap, male chest, double chin, arms, love handles, and abdomen. It’s all about enhancing your natural shape so you’ll love every inch.
Fat freezing works best for people who are already close to their goal weight but struggle with specific areas that won't budge despite healthy habits. It's body contouring, not weight loss an important distinction.
The Ideal Candidate
You're likely a great candidate if:
- You're within 10-15kg of your target weight. Fat freezing is designed to sculpt and refine, not to achieve major weight loss. Ideal candidates have a BMI under 30, though we assess each person individually.
- You can pinch at least 2cm of fat in your problem area. This 20mm minimum ensures the applicator can draw in enough tissue to treat effectively. The pinch test is something we'll do together during your consultation.
- You have stubborn fat that resists diet and exercise. Those frustrating pockets that stay put no matter how consistently you work out or eat well—that's exactly what fat freezing targets. Love handles, lower belly pooch, bra bulge, and inner thighs are common trouble spots.
- You're looking for refinement, not transformation. Fat freezing reduces fat in treated areas by 20-25% per session. It's perfect for contouring and smoothing rather than dramatic size reduction.
- You're in good general health. No current pregnancy, and you're comfortable with the treatment process.
Who Should Consider Other Options
Fat freezing isn't suitable for everyone. You should explore alternatives if:
- You have cold-sensitivity conditions such as cryoglobulinemia, cold urticaria, or Raynaud's disease
- You're seeking significant weight loss rather than targeted fat reduction
- You have less than 2cm of pinchable fat in your treatment area
- You're pregnant or breastfeeding
Ensuring Your Comfort on Treatment Day
Think of your visit to our fat freeze studio as time carved out just for you. No stress, no rush, just a moment to pause, reset, and take a step toward the change you’ve been wanting. Give yourself a little buffer to arrive and settle in before we start. Wear whatever makes you feel relaxed – comfy, loose-fitting clothes are ideal. We also recommend eating something light beforehand to keep your energy up.
Each treatment room is equipped with a TV, but if you’d rather bring your book, scroll your own playlist, or knock out a few emails, we’re all for it. Kick back and relax as our specialists freeze the fat.
Fat Freezing FAQs
Yes, freezing fat cells has been scientifically proven to permanently eliminate up to 30% of fat cells in the targeted area in each session.
Once those fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good. Stick to a balanced lifestyle and your results are yours to keep.
Absolutely. Fat freezing is non-invasive, meaning no needles or surgery, ensuring zero risk of infections. You can rest assured – our equipment is medical grade and registered on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG #243432).
You might start noticing changes around the 6-week mark, with peak results usually showing around week 12. Everyone’s different, so your therapist will discuss timelines and what’s realistic for you during your consultation.
Most people feel light pressure and cold at the start, but that quickly turns into numbness. Depending on your pain threshold, you might feel a little discomfort or tingling during the process, but many find it manageable and even take a nap as the session goes on. If you’d prefer having mild painkillers at hand, speak to your therapist before starting, and we can arrange for them.
Each session runs for about 40 to 60 minutes. Long enough to make an impact, short enough to fit into your day.
We chose Clatuu to freeze fat for a reason. It’s one of the most advanced cryolipolysis systems out there: dual applicators, 360° cooling, strong suction, and temperature that drop to -9°C. Plus, unlike other machines on the market, it’s registered as safe and approved for consumer use on the ARTG.
Should we add here how it is so much more powerful than other machines that 1 session with Clatuu is the equivalent of 2 sessions with other providers such as Cool Shaping
Will you also add the diagram that shows the difference – under FAT FREEZING TECHNOLOGY?
Once frozen, the fat cells break down naturally and your body flushes them out through the lymphatic system to the liver, where they’re processed as waste.
Yes, right away. Because fat freezing therapy is non-surgical, there’s no recovery time needed. Many of our clients go right back to life after their appointment, making fat freezing a go-to choice compared to liposuction or tummy tucks.
Fat freezing helps shape your body, but it works even better with a little backup. Staying hydrated, eating well, and moving your body will all help. Reducing alcohol, excessive sugar, unhealthy fats, and smoking also helps.
The Body Catalyst team supports you in being the best version of yourself and can offer extra support around nutrition, movement and lifestyle goals.
We’re not just another fat freeze studio, we’re Australia’s largest and most experienced body sculpting clinic with a track record of helping thousands of people feel better in their skin.
