Which is the recommended temperature for a session of cryolipolisis?

mihamelaJun 22, 2016
The therapist told that the maxim she can set is -1 degreees, otherwise it may cause several damages on the skin. Another one from other centre said that she can set even -8 degrees. Where is the truth? P.s. Where can I find a list of approved equipements on the market by fda? Thank you a lot.
