Other methods of non-surgical fat removal primarily involve necrotic cell death, which solely involves damaging fat with heat, high-intensity ultrasound or chemical injections.
The problem?
Unlike the thermal shock effect delivered by the T-Shock, the surrounding tissue isn't preserved so the pure reduction of fat cells is not achieved. With T-Shock the reduction of fat with preservation of surrounding non-fat tissue offers a more dramatic firming effect.
HOW DOES IT WORK – T Shock stands for Thermal Shock which is a simple, all natural, non-invasive concept based on using warm and cold to “shock” the cells. Alternating between hot and cold has a more dramatic effect than hot or cold applied individually. The two components, administered in sequence, according to precise protocols, produce a localized and deep thermal shock effect. Times, temperatures and sequences change automatically. The technician selects from a list of pre-programmed protocols which vary by the targeted body part and sex of the person.
HOW DOES IT FEEL – All of the T Shock procedures are painless. During fat and cellulite reduction treatments there’s a prolonged period of cold so it’s common to experience some numbness in the treated area. Any numbness will quickly subside following completion of the treatment. Some clients will experience a period of “bloating” following the treatment. This is due to the body sending blood in an attempt to warm the treated area. This too will quickly subside.
Toning and facial clients experience little if any discomfort.
FREQUENCY OF TREATMENTS
Facials – Can be performed daily. Optimum is 5 treatments performed over a 10-15 day period. Once desired results are achieved general maintenance is once a month.
Toning – Can be performed daily. Optimum is 5 treatments performed over a 10-15 day period. Once desired results are achieved general maintenance is once a month.
Fat Reduction – Can be performed once every two weeks. This spacing is required in order to keep from overloading the lymphatic system. A minimum of five treatments is generally suggested.
Cellulite – Treatments can be performed weekly. A minimum of five treatments is generally suggested. The number of treatments will vary with the severity of the condition.
PRE-TREATMENT REQUIREMENTS
Drink Water, especially if you are having Fat and Cellulite reduction
POST TREATMENT REQUIREMENTS
Fat and Cellulite reduction clients are required to facilitate lymphatic drainage within 4 hours of the treatment. A lack of facilitating lymphatic drainage following a treatment may negate many of the benefits.
A 30 minute cardio workout
A massage or compression on the treated area
20-30 minutes in our infrared sauna
10-15 minutes on our whole body vibration plate with a lymphatic drainage setting
NUMBER OF AREAS TREATED SIMULTANEOUSLY
Fat Reduction Treatments – One large and one small body part can be treated every two weeks. Clients can combine these treatments with an unlimited number of Toning or Facial treatments on the body
Cellulite Reduction Treatments – One large and one small body part can be treated weekly. Clients can combine these treatments with an unlimited number of Toning or Facial treatments on the body
Toning and Facials – The entire body can be treated simultaneously. No limitations

Pagani Cryogenic T-Shock is the only device in esthetics that uses Thermal Shock Technology. It is a simple, natural, non-invasive and painless.
During fat and cellulite treatments there is a prolonged period of cold and it is common to feel numbness. Some experience a period of bloating due to the body sending blood to the treated area in attempts to keep it warm. It subsides quickly.
Depending on the desired effect the T-Shock will alternate heat and cold at varying temperature and time sequences to shock fat cells, reduce the signs of cellulite, tighten loose or crepey skin, stimulate skin that has lost elasticity and reduce the signs of aging.
Thermal Shock hyper stimulates skin and tissues, speeding up cellular activity.
T-Shock immediately improves skins appearance, making it noticeably tighter, reducing the size of pores and creating a healthy glow.
Multiple sessions increase collagen and elastin.
Causes blood vessels and capillaries to expand as much as 400%, improving skins permeability and product absorption ability. Meaning you can absorb more of the moisture out of your moisturizer!
