Can Topical Creams and Gels Help Reduce Fat?

It's important to understand that no cream, lotion, gel, or serum can burn fat. Fat is oxidized in muscles and organs after being released from fat cells. CoolSculpting is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses cryolipolysis to reduce temperatures to the point where the effects freeze the fat cell from the inside and destroy it. Over time, the body eliminates these dead cells as waste, which greatly reduces fat in the treated area. If fat were evenly distributed throughout the body, there would be no need for creams or topical treatments to reduce fat.

Topical fat-reducing creams are designed to be massaged into areas of fat on the body, such as the thighs, hips, upper arms and abdomen. These creams contain ingredients that limit nutrient intake and stop insulin production in fat cells. However, they are only capable of providing small improvements; don't expect an inch reduction. If you have built up fat that won't move even with diet and regular exercise, it may be beneficial to discuss treatment programs with a CoolSculpting provider. It is also possible to use topical fat burners which work by reducing fat in the area where it is applied.

In essence, a fat cream is a fat-releasing cream that helps release fat from specific areas where persistent fat has accumulated.
