More Science. Less Fat.

Zeltiq (pronounced Zel ′teek) Aesthetics, founded in 2005, is a science-based medical device company dedicated to the development of non-invasive procedures for the reduction of unwanted fat tissue. The Zeltiq approach utilizes a patented method called Cryolipolysis™ (the use of precisely controlled cooling to remove fat) that is designed to target only fat cells and not harm the skin or other tissue.

The Zeltiq Procedure for non-invasive fat layer reduction is available in Canada, the European Union and other international markets. The Zeltiq device is cleared by the FDA in the United States for various applications related to skin cooling during dermatologic treatments, with a pending application for non-invasive fat layer reduction.
