My understanding is that the cryolipolisis, as a non-invasive technique, should not leave any bumps on the surface, mainly because the method kills fat cells by freezing them, so that they die the natural way and destroy themselves, while the surviving cells contract each other, thus no uneven spots would be possible.How come?
