Summary
General

Why Does Fat Accumulate Around the Knees ?

Fat cells act as energy reserves, storing excess intake as fat, sometimes increasing their volume up to 50 times. Over the years, these fat cells tend to accumulate around the knees. Contributing factors can include :

  • Excess weight
  • Poor circulation
  • Sedentary lifestyle
  • Lymphatic issues
  • Genetic predisposition

Fat deposits around the knees can become an aesthetic concern, making some people uncomfortable showing their legs. Medical cryolipolysis provides an effective, non-surgical solution to eliminate these unsightly bulges.

How a Cryolipolysis Session for Knee Fat Works with Dr. Aimé ?

Before knee cryolipolysis, Dr. Aimé will evaluate your needs to ensure that the treatment is suitable. During this initial consultation, a care plan tailored to your goals will be provided.

The Cristal Pro medical cryolipolysis session begins with applying a conductive gel to enhance cold diffusion. The doctor will then position the cryolipolysis device, which gently suctions the skin and applies intense cooling to trigger fat cell destruction. This pain-free treatment lasts 60 to 90 minutes, during which you may read, listen to music, or relax. Afterward, the treated area is massaged to promote drainage.

Contraindications for Knee Cryolipolysis

Cryolipolysis is not a weight-loss method but rather targets localized fat. It is not recommended for those who are overweight. Other contraindications include :

  • Conditions related to cold sensitivity
  • Raynaud’s disease
  • Certain chronic illnesses
  • Cryoglobulinemia
  • Pacemaker usage
  • Recent surgery on the treatment area
  • Skin lesions on the area to be treated
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding

The initial consultation with Dr. Aimé assesses your overall health and confirms that there are no contraindications for knee cryolipolysis.

Cost of a Knee Cryolipolysis Session with Dr. Aimé
