Arm Fat Freezing
A targeted, non-invasive treatment for stubborn underarm fat (“bingo wings”), designed to reduce localised fat with no downtime for most clients.
Treatments are provided at our Brighton & Hove clinic.
Why arms can be hard to treat
Underarm fat can be persistent even with good diet and exercise, and can become more noticeable with age. Fat freezing is designed for localised pockets of fat.
How it works
Controlled cooling selectively targets fat cells. Over the following weeks, the body gradually processes the treated fat cells naturally, reducing fat thickness in the area.
Results & timeline
Changes are gradual. Many clients notice results from around 4–6 weeks, with full results typically visible after 8–12 weeks.
How arm fat freezing works
Arm fat freezing applies controlled cooling to the subcutaneous fat in the underarm area. Fat cells are more sensitive to cold than surrounding tissue, allowing targeted treatment without damage to skin or muscle.
Over the weeks following treatment, the body gradually processes the treated fat cells. Your consultation confirms suitability and the most appropriate plan for your goals.
Your appointment, step by step
We assess the area, discuss goals, and confirm suitability and expected outcomes.
A brief patch test checks compatibility and ensures treatment can proceed safely.
Typically around 60 minutes. You can relax, read, listen to music or take a break.
Return to normal activity immediately. Results develop over the following weeks.
After arm fat freezing
Because it uses the body’s natural processes, most clients simply carry on with their day. Results build gradually over the following weeks.
Maintain healthy habits: keep active, avoid excess alcohol, and aim for around 2 litres of water per day.
A follow-up is typically around 5 weeks after treatment to review progress and next steps.
