Products and Services

Cryolipolysis 360°

• Non-invasive method using intense cold (-5 to -10 °C) applied by suction on fat deposits (cryomotion.fr).
• The 360° technology diffuses cold around the entire circumference of the handpiece (6 Peltier plates), ensuring a homogeneous distribution that is more effective than classic models (cryomotion.fr).
• Typical session: 35 to 60 minutes. Visible results between 60 to 90 days (cryomotion.fr).
• Indications: abdomen, flanks, thighs, knees, bra fold, pectorals (men) (cryomotion.fr).
• Contraindications: cold-related diseases (Raynaud's, cryoglobulinemia, cold urticaria), skin lesions, severe liver failure, abdominal hernias, pregnancy/breastfeeding (cryomotion.fr).
• Procedure: measurement of fat fold, application of protective gel, suction, cooling, massage, and soothing cream (cryomotion.fr).
• Sessions spaced 45 to 60 days apart if multiple are necessary (cryomotion.fr).

LipoHIFU

• Uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to heat and fragment fat cells, affecting skin laxity (cryomotion.fr).
• Indicated for hard-to-suction areas or very fibrous fat tissues, often as a complement to cryolipolysis (cryomotion.fr).

MShape 2

• New generation of high-intensity electromagnetic muscle stimulation (MMS® Technology), similar to MRI waves (en.cryomotion.fr).
• Simultaneously allows for increased muscle mass and decreased subcutaneous fat (en.cryomotion.fr).
• Protocol: 4 sessions of 30 minutes (instead of 6 sessions of 20 minutes previously), spread over 2 weeks (en.cryomotion.fr).
• Targeted areas: abdominal muscles (rectus abdominis, obliques, transversus) and buttocks (gluteus maximus, medius, minimus) (en.cryomotion.fr).
• Contraindications: metal implants, pacemaker, metal shards, pregnancy/breastfeeding, neuromuscular pathologies. Medical prostheses (hip, knee) are not contraindicated (en.cryomotion.fr).
• Procedure: initial assessment, lying position, electromagnetic handpieces, gradual increase in power, possible sensations of tingling, warmth, soreness (en.cryomotion.fr).
• Visible results from the end of the 4th session, improvement up to 2–4 weeks later. Effects on fat visible 2–3 months later. Maintenance sessions recommended every 6 to 12 months (en.cryomotion.fr).

Firm&Smooth Tech®

• Technique combining lipolytic infrared, bipolar radiofrequency, and kneading to firm and smooth the skin (cryomotion.fr).
• Less traumatic than classic kneading (cryomotion.fr).
• Indications: internal skin laxity of thighs, arms, improvement of cellulite and heavy legs syndrome (cryomotion.fr).
• Usable in all seasons. Maintenance treatment necessary (cryomotion.fr).

Whole Body Cryotherapy (WBC)
