Vacuum controllable head with cold temperature range from -10 to 5°C technique was adjusted according to each patient tolerance, after careful patient sensation examination and vital signs evaluation before and after each session. Cryolipolysis sessions was applied at the hypogastrium area, 5 cm below the umbilicus, for 30 minutes with temperature degree of -5°C using an anti- freezing membrane to avoid cold burn. After starting the device on, the patient was instructed with safety measures to pull the key off if there was any intolerable abnormal sensation.
