A perfect body is everyone’s dream. However, with age, the skin becomes more lax and loses its firmness. The most problematic areas are the buttocks, thighs, abdomen, but also shoulders, where so-called “pelikans” may appear. Pelikans, sometimes also known as “bats” or “butterflies”, is a common term for the condition of loose, sagging skin around the arms. They usually develop as a natural part of skin aging and loss of elasticity. However, they can also occur during sudden weight loss, as skin in these areas tends to lose elasticity. Find out how you can finally get rid of pelikans with aesthetic medicine treatments!<\/p>\n

Pelikans – troublesome arm condition<\/h2>\n

Skin sagging is a natural aging process. As time passes, collagen fibers weaken, and the body begins to lose elastin. Thin skin is especially susceptible to loss of elasticity. Such skin is found, among other areas, around the arms. The result can be the appearance of so-called “pelikan” – sagging skin in this part of the body. Pelikans can also be caused by rapid weight loss. Due to sagging, arms lose their healthy and aesthetic appearance, causing insecurities. This is especially troublesome in summer when we want to show off our body.<\/p>\n

Pelikans – how to get rid of them?<\/h2>\n

Proper exercises and firming massages can help eliminate pelikans. A proper diet is also recommended. However, the most effective way to get rid of pelikans is through specialized aesthetic medicine procedures. They are characterized by much higher effectiveness, and thanks to the use of innovative technologies, they are safe and non-invasive.<\/p>\n

Cryolipolysis – an ally in the fight against pelikans<\/h2>\n

One of the procedures used to reduce pelikans is ZLipo Cryolipolysis<\/a>. Its goal is to remove excess fat and improve skin elasticity by stimulating collagen fiber and elastin bond production. This is a completely safe procedure. It is performed by a specialist who initially conducts a special ultrasound examination and measures the fat tissue. ZLipo Cryolipolysis, which we perform at our clinic, combines the Z Lipo system with the Z Wave PRO acoustic wave, further increasing its effectiveness. The cryolipolysis action in fat removal involves freezing the fat and removing it during physiological excretion processes. Fat tissue is suctioned by a special device, then frozen and removed from the body. The entire cryolipolysis procedure lasts about an hour. Afterward, an acoustic wave therapy follows.<\/p>\n

Effects and safety of cryolipolysis<\/h2>\n

Cryolipolysis is not painful. It is a non-invasive procedure and is considered completely safe. The effects of cryolipolysis are permanent and usually appear immediately after the treatment. Patients wait 1 to 2 months for the full effect. The acoustic wave therapy is repeated every 2 days.<\/p>\n
