Non-Surgical
Cello & Vibration —
Permanent Inch Loss
Chennai's clinically supervised Cello & Vibration Treatment — a powerful two-phase, non-surgical programme combining Cello fat-freezing (cryolipolysis) to permanently destroy fat cells, followed by targeted Vibration therapy to accelerate lymphatic elimination, reduce cellulite and firm skin. No surgery. No anaesthetic. Minimal downtime. Real, measurable inch loss.
The Science Behind
Cello & Vibration Treatment
Cello & Vibration is a two-phase, clinically supervised non-surgical body contouring treatment that combines the power of cryolipolysis (Cello fat-freezing) with precision vibration therapy to permanently destroy fat cells, accelerate their elimination, reduce cellulite and firm the skin — all without surgery, needles or significant downtime.
1Cello — Fat Freezing (Cryolipolysis)
The Cello device uses a precision vacuum applicator to draw localised fat tissue between two medical-grade cooling plates. Controlled cold energy (cryolipolysis) is delivered to the fat cells at the exact temperature at which adipocytes (fat cells) crystallise and undergo apoptosis — permanent cell death — without harming surrounding skin, muscle, nerves or blood vessels. The destroyed fat cells are then processed and eliminated by the body's natural lymphatic system over the following 6–12 weeks.
2Vibration Therapy — Lymphatic Drainage & Cellulite
Immediately following the Cello phase, precision vibration therapy uses calibrated mechanical oscillations to powerfully stimulate the lymphatic system — the body's primary channel for eliminating the crystallised fat cells destroyed by the Cello treatment. Vibration also directly breaks down cellulite fibres, improves blood circulation, reduces fluid retention, firms the skin and accelerates the body's natural fat-elimination timeline for faster, more visible results.
Stubborn localised fat — particularly in the abdomen, flanks, thighs and upper arms — is one of the most common aesthetic frustrations for adults who are otherwise healthy and active. These fat deposits are often diet- and exercise-resistant because they contain a higher concentration of alpha-adrenergic receptors that resist the fat-mobilisation signals of caloric deficit and exercise. Cello cryolipolysis bypasses this resistance entirely by physically destroying the fat cells through cold — permanently eliminating them from the body, independent of metabolic rate, hormonal profile or dietary discipline.
The Vibration phase then dramatically accelerates the clearance of destroyed fat cells through the lymphatic system — reducing the 6–12 week natural elimination timeline, while simultaneously reducing cellulite, improving skin texture and tightening the skin over the treated areas. At Maynee, every Cello & Vibration programme is individually assessed and mapped by a trained specialist — with treatment zones, session frequency and progress monitoring tailored to your body composition, treatment goals and response.
How Cello & Vibration Works — The Science
Six Ways Cello & Vibration
Transforms Your Body
Cello & Vibration addresses the full spectrum of non-surgical body contouring concerns — from permanently destroying fat cells and reducing cellulite to firming the skin and accelerating the body's own elimination processes for faster, more visible results.
Permanently Destroys Fat Cells — Not Just Shrinks Them
The fundamental distinction between Cello cryolipolysis and most other non-surgical slimming treatments is permanence. Most non-surgical treatments — radiofrequency, ultrasound, massage-based — work by shrinking or heating fat cells, which can re-enlarge if dietary habits change. Cello physically destroys the fat cells through controlled cold energy at the precise temperature of adipocyte (fat cell) vulnerability, triggering apoptosis — the natural biological process of programmed cell death. Once destroyed, these fat cells do not regenerate. They are permanently eliminated from the body through the lymphatic system over 6–12 weeks. This means the fat reduction achieved in the treated areas is permanent as long as a broadly balanced lifestyle is maintained — a fundamentally different and more durable outcome than shrinkage-based alternatives.
Accelerates Lymphatic Drainage — Eliminates Fat Faster
After the Cello phase destroys fat cells, the body's lymphatic system must process and eliminate them — a process that naturally takes 6–12 weeks. Vibration therapy following Cello sessions powerfully stimulates the lymphatic system, directly accelerating this elimination timeline. Clinical studies show vibration therapy to be 54% more effective than aerobic exercise and strength training for visceral fat reduction — and its direct stimulation of lymphatic flow means the crystallised fat cells from Cello are flushed out significantly faster than without the Vibration component. This two-phase combination means faster visible results and more efficient use of each treatment session, compared to cryolipolysis alone.
Visibly Reduces Cellulite — Breaks Down Fibrous Bands
Cellulite — the orange-peel dimpling texture of the skin that affects up to 90% of women — is caused by fat cells pushing upward through fibrous connective tissue bands beneath the skin. It is notoriously resistant to diet, exercise and most topical treatments because it requires physical disruption of these fibrous bands to achieve a visible improvement. Vibration therapy at clinical frequencies directly addresses cellulite by stimulating microcirculation, mechanically breaking down the fibrous septae that cause dimpling, improving lymphatic drainage to reduce the fluid and fat accumulation that exacerbates cellulite, and stimulating collagen production that thickens and smoothes the skin surface above. Clinical studies have demonstrated a 26% reduction in cellulite grade with consistent vibration therapy over 6 months — results that compound further when combined with the fat reduction of the Cello phase.
Non-Surgical Inch Loss — No Downtime, Return Same Day
Cello & Vibration delivers the inch loss results that previously required surgical liposuction — without surgery, anaesthesia, incisions, stitches or a recovery period. The Cello phase uses only an external vacuum applicator pressed against the skin; the Vibration phase is essentially a therapeutic vibration session. There are no needles, no injections, no cuts and no hospitalisation. Clients walk in for a session and return to work, school, daily errands and light activity immediately after. This makes Cello & Vibration genuinely compatible with the schedules of working adults, parents and anyone who cannot commit to the recovery demands of surgical fat removal. For the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, hips, back and knees, it delivers measurable body contouring results within a clinical session framework.
Firms & Tightens Skin — Prevents Post-Treatment Laxity
One of the most clinically important benefits of the Vibration phase in the Cello & Vibration programme is its skin-firming effect — addressing a real concern for clients who have experienced skin laxity after fat reduction. As the Cello phase destroys fat cells and the body eliminates them, there is a risk of mild skin looseness in the treated area — particularly in clients with reduced baseline skin elasticity. Vibration therapy directly counters this by stimulating collagen and elastin production in the dermal layers, improving skin thickness and elasticity, and tightening the skin over the treated area as it responds to the mechanical stimulation. Clients consistently report firmer, smoother skin texture in treated areas, complementing the inch loss achieved by the Cello phase for a more refined, toned overall outcome.
Targets Specific Problem Areas — Precise Zone Treatment
Unlike systemic weight loss approaches that reduce fat proportionally across the whole body, the Cello applicator delivers precise, localised treatment to specific body zones — targeting exactly the stubborn fat deposits that diet and exercise have failed to address. Clients can target the lower abdomen independently of the upper, the outer thigh without affecting the inner, or the flank without impacting the hip — with applicator selection and positioning calibrated to the individual client's anatomy and goals at each session. This targeted precision means that a client who has worked hard to maintain overall fitness but carries residual stubborn fat in one or two specific areas gets a result focused exactly where it is needed, rather than generalised whole-body weight reduction.

Your Cello & Vibration Session —
Step by Step
At Maynee, every Cello & Vibration programme is individually assessed and structured — with treatment zone mapping, progress measurement at every session and a specialist-guided approach designed around your specific body composition and inch loss goals.
Body Assessment & Treatment Zone Mapping
Your specialist conducts a comprehensive body composition assessment — reviewing your target areas, existing health conditions, skin condition, body measurements and inch loss goals. The treatment zones are identified and marked using clinical markers, with applicator size and positioning determined for optimal fat coverage in each area. Baseline circumference measurements and clinical photographs are taken to document your starting point for accurate progress tracking throughout the programme. You receive a complete explanation of the treatment, expected sensations, session timeline and realistic outcome projections based on your body composition.
Phase 1 — Cello Fat-Freezing (Cryolipolysis)
A protective gel pad is placed on the treatment area to protect the skin's surface. The Cello applicator is then positioned over the target zone and activated — the vacuum draws the fat tissue between the two precision cooling plates, creating a controlled suction sensation. The cooling plates lower the temperature of the captured fat tissue to the precise cryolipolysis range — the temperature at which fat cells crystallise and undergo apoptosis (permanent cell death) without affecting surrounding skin, nerves or muscle. Most clients feel intense cold for the first 5–10 minutes, after which the area becomes comfortably numb. Sessions typically last 35–60 minutes per treatment zone. You can relax, read or use your phone throughout. Multiple zones can be treated simultaneously in some cases.
Post-Cello Tissue Massage & Manual Release
Immediately after each Cello applicator is removed, your specialist performs a focused 2-minute manual massage of the treated area. This critical post-treatment step breaks up the crystallised fat tissue, initiates the local inflammatory response that signals the lymphatic system to begin processing destroyed cells, and improves immediate treatment outcomes. Clinical evidence suggests that this post-Cello massage can improve fat reduction results by up to 68% compared to no post-massage intervention. The massaged area may appear temporarily red or firm — this is a normal and expected part of the cryolipolysis process and resolves within minutes to hours.
Phase 2 — Vibration Therapy (Lymphatic Drainage & Cellulite)
Following the Cello phase, you transition to the Vibration therapy component — either on a whole-body vibration platform or using a targeted localised vibration device applied to the specific treatment areas. Calibrated mechanical oscillations at therapeutic frequencies stimulate the lymphatic system to actively drain and process the fat cells destroyed in the Cello phase, dramatically accelerating their natural elimination timeline. Simultaneously, the vibration breaks down cellulite fibrous bands, reduces localised fluid retention, stimulates collagen and elastin production for skin firming, and improves blood circulation throughout the treated zones. Most clients describe this phase as relaxing and similar to a deep-tissue massage sensation.
Post-Session Measurement, Review & Hydration Guidance
Following each full session, your specialist records updated circumference measurements and compares them to the baseline — providing objective, documented evidence of your progress. Post-treatment care instructions are reviewed: drink at least 2–3 litres of water daily for the following 48–72 hours to support lymphatic drainage and fat cell elimination; avoid intense heat (saunas, hot baths) for 48 hours; gentle massage of the treated areas aids elimination; maintain your regular dietary habits. Any questions are addressed before your next session is scheduled. Progress photography may be taken at designated intervals for visual documentation.
Before & After Your Cello & Vibration Session — Essential Instructions
Before each session: Avoid heavy meals 2 hours before treatment — attend after a light meal or snack. Drink 500ml of water before your appointment. Wear comfortable, loose clothing that allows easy access to the treatment areas (abdomen, thighs, arms). Inform your specialist of any skin changes, active conditions, new medications or health changes since your last session. Avoid applying thick creams or oils to the treatment area on the day of your session. Avoid intense exercise on the day of each Cello treatment. Remove any piercings or jewellery near the treatment area.
After each session (essential): Drink at least 2–3 litres of water daily for 48–72 hours after each session — hydration is critical for lymphatic drainage and elimination of destroyed fat cells. Gentle self-massage of the treated areas (circular motions for 5 minutes, twice daily) aids lymphatic flow and accelerates results. Avoid saunas, hot baths, jacuzzis or prolonged intense heat exposure for 48 hours post-Cello. Mild temporary side effects — redness, numbness, tenderness, mild bruising or firmness in the treated area — are expected and resolve within hours to a few days. Avoid tight clothing over Cello-treated areas for 24–48 hours. Maintain your regular diet and activity levels — do not significantly overeat after sessions. Report any unusual swelling, blistering or persistent pain immediately.
The Benefits of Cello & Vibration
at Maynee Skin Clinic
A clinically supervised Cello & Vibration programme at Maynee delivers safe, measurable and permanent fat cell destruction with the enhanced results of combined vibration therapy — all individually mapped and progress-tracked by a trained specialist throughout your programme.
Permanent Fat Reduction — Not Temporary Shrinkage
Cello permanently destroys fat cells through apoptosis. Unlike treatments that only shrink fat cells, the cells eliminated by Cello do not return — delivering a permanently improved body contour in the treated areas as long as a balanced lifestyle is maintained.
Faster Results — Vibration Accelerates Fat Elimination
Without vibration, the body naturally takes 6–12 weeks to fully eliminate Cello-destroyed fat cells. The Vibration phase actively accelerates lymphatic drainage, making results visible sooner and improving the overall fat-reduction outcome of each Cello session.
Targets Stubborn Diet-Resistant Fat
Cello cryolipolysis bypasses the metabolic resistance that makes diet-resistant fat deposits so frustrating — permanently destroying cells in the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms and hips that have withstood months of dietary discipline and exercise.
No Surgery · No Anaesthetic · No Downtime
Every part of the Cello & Vibration programme is completely non-surgical — no incisions, no anaesthesia, no hospitalisation and no recovery period. Return to work, daily life and light activity the same day as each session, with no lifestyle disruption.
Reduces Cellulite — Clinically Documented
Vibration therapy has clinical evidence demonstrating a 26% reduction in cellulite with consistent treatment. The Vibration phase addresses all four biological contributors to cellulite — fat, poor circulation, lymphatic insufficiency and fibrous bands — simultaneously alongside the fat reduction of the Cello phase.
Firms & Tightens Skin in Treated Areas
The collagen-stimulating effect of Vibration therapy tightens and firms the skin over Cello-treated areas — preventing the mild laxity that can sometimes follow fat cell elimination, and delivering a more refined, toned result alongside the inch loss.
Precision Zone Targeting — Treat Specific Problem Areas
Cello applicators are precision-sized and positioned to treat specific localised fat deposits — enabling targeted contouring of the lower abdomen, flank, inner thigh or upper arm independently, delivering a sculpted result that generalised weight loss cannot reproduce.
Progress Measured & Documented Every Session
Circumference measurements and clinical photography are recorded at every Maynee appointment — giving you a clear, objective, evidence-based picture of the inch loss your programme is delivering. Your specialist reviews these results at every session and adjusts the protocol as needed for optimal progress.
Is Cello & Vibration
Right for You?
Cello & Vibration is ideal for adults with stubborn, localised fat deposits or cellulite that have not responded to diet and exercise — and who want permanent, non-surgical inch loss without surgery or significant downtime.
Ideal Candidates for Cello & Vibration
-
Stubborn Localised Fat — Abdomen, Flanks, Thighs or Arms
Adults with specific fat deposits in one or more body zones that have not responded to diet and exercise — wanting a non-surgical, targeted solution that permanently reduces the fat in those specific areas rather than generalised whole-body weight loss.
-
Cellulite Reduction — Dimpled Skin on Thighs, Buttocks or Abdomen
Clients with visible cellulite who want a clinically evidenced treatment that addresses its root causes — fat, poor circulation, lymphatic drainage and fibrous bands — rather than topical products or temporary massage-based improvements.
-
Post-Weight-Loss Body Contouring
Clients who have successfully lost weight through diet and exercise but retain specific residual fat deposits or skin laxity in areas like the lower abdomen, inner thighs or arms — wanting non-surgical body contouring to complete their transformation without resorting to surgery.
-
Busy Professionals & Parents — No Surgery or Recovery Time
Individuals who want the body contouring results of surgical liposuction but cannot commit to the recovery period, anaesthesia risks or hospitalisation involved — and need a treatment fully compatible with their active work and family schedule.
-
Post-Natal Body Contouring — Post-Pregnancy Fat & Skin Laxity
Women who have completed breastfeeding and want to address post-pregnancy abdominal fat, flanks or thigh deposits that have not responded to returning to exercise — combined with the skin-firming vibration phase to improve skin quality in the treated areas.
When Cello & Vibration May Not Be Suitable
Your specialist will screen for each of these at your initial assessment:
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding — contraindicated throughout
- Cryoglobulinaemia, cold agglutinin disease or Raynaud's disease — medical cold sensitivity conditions
- Paroxysmal cold haemoglobinuria or known allergy to extreme cold
- Active skin conditions, open wounds, eczema, psoriasis or active infections in the treatment area
- History of hernia in the proposed treatment area
- Implanted devices (pacemakers, defibrillators, metal implants) near the Vibration therapy zone
- Active deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or thrombophlebitis in or near the treatment area
- Severe varicose veins or peripheral vascular disease
- Recent surgery, injury or scarring in the treatment zone — minimum 6 months healing required
- Certain bleeding disorders or current use of anticoagulant medications
- Peripheral neuropathy or significantly impaired sensation in treatment areas
- BMI significantly above the healthy-to-overweight range — clients with very high BMI are better served by a medical weight management programme before body contouring

Real Results,
Real Voices
Hear from clients who have experienced Cello & Vibration treatment at Maynee — in their own words.
"I had stubborn belly fat and love handles that absolutely would not shift despite consistent gym sessions and a calorie-controlled diet for nearly two years. After six Cello & Vibration sessions at Maynee I genuinely lost 6cm off my waist and the flanks are visibly much better. The treatment was completely comfortable — I expected it to be painful but it really wasn't. The team was professional throughout and the results were documented every session so I could see the actual measurements changing."
"The cellulite on my thighs and the soft fat on my inner thighs were my biggest concerns — nothing I tried had made any difference. After eight sessions at Maynee the change is remarkable. The skin texture is so much smoother and the measurement around my thighs has reduced by nearly 4cm. The vibration part of the session is actually very relaxing. The specialist was excellent — she explained everything clearly and was genuinely focused on results rather than pushing more sessions than I needed."
"After my second delivery I had lower abdominal fat that just would not go despite being back at the gym for over a year. I was hesitant about any treatment but the Maynee team were very honest about what Cello could and couldn't do — they showed me exactly where the fat was and what the expected reduction would be. After ten sessions I've lost meaningful inches and my abdomen looks and feels so much better. No surgery, no pain, I came in during my lunch breaks some days. Honestly very happy with the experience and results."

Cello & Vibration Questions
Answered
Real questions from our clients — answered by our specialists. If your question is not listed here, ask us at your consultation appointment.
Cello & Vibration is a clinically supervised two-phase non-surgical body contouring treatment that combines Cello cryolipolysis (fat freezing) with vibration therapy for a combined result superior to either treatment alone. The Cello phase uses a vacuum applicator to draw localised fat tissue between precision cooling plates, lowering the temperature to the exact point where fat cells crystallise and undergo apoptosis — permanent, programmed cell death — without damaging surrounding skin, nerves or muscles. The destroyed fat cells are then eliminated from the body by the lymphatic system. The Vibration phase immediately follows, using calibrated mechanical oscillations to powerfully stimulate lymphatic drainage of the destroyed fat cells, reduce cellulite, firm the skin and improve circulation. Together, they deliver measurable, permanent inch loss and body contouring without surgery or anaesthesia.
The fat cells destroyed by the Cello cryolipolysis phase are permanently eliminated — they do not regenerate. Once destroyed and processed through the lymphatic system (which takes 6–12 weeks), those specific fat cells are gone for good. This is the fundamental difference between Cello and non-destructive treatments that only shrink fat cells — shrunk cells can re-enlarge, but destroyed cells cannot return. However, the remaining fat cells in the body (in untreated areas or adjacent to treated zones) can still enlarge if caloric intake consistently exceeds energy expenditure after treatment. Clients who maintain broadly healthy dietary and activity habits after their programme find the results in treated areas genuinely long-lasting — often years. Weight regain is possible, but it occurs in the remaining cells, not the ones destroyed by Cello.
Most clients achieve visible, measurable results with 6–8 sessions for one or two treatment zones, delivered weekly or every two weeks. Clients with larger treatment areas, multiple zones or more significant stubborn fat deposits typically complete 10–12 sessions. Sessions are generally recommended once weekly or fortnightly — this frequency allows the body adequate time to process and eliminate fat cells between Cello sessions while maintaining the lymphatic stimulation of regular Vibration therapy. Your specialist will outline a realistic, honest programme at your initial assessment based on your specific areas, fat volume, skin condition and measurement goals — and will review progress at every appointment with actual circumference data to guide programme adjustments.
Cello & Vibration is generally well-tolerated and most clients describe the experience as more comfortable than expected. During the Cello fat-freezing phase, you feel: first, a pulling or suction sensation as the vacuum applicator draws the fat tissue into the device — this is brief and becomes background sensation; then, an intense cold as the cooling activates — this is the most noticeable part, lasting 5–10 minutes before the area becomes numb and the sensation settles completely. After the cooling plates are removed, your specialist performs a 2-minute post-Cello massage — this can feel like deep pressure and may be slightly uncomfortable for a few minutes but significantly improves outcomes. The Vibration phase that follows feels similar to a relaxing mechanical massage — most clients find this portion pleasant and even energising. No anaesthetic is needed at any stage.
Cello & Vibration can target most body areas where localised fat deposits exist or where cellulite is a concern. Commonly treated areas at Maynee include: the abdomen (upper and lower, independently treatable), flanks and love handles, inner and outer thighs, upper arms (bat wings), hips and buttocks, back fat (bra rolls), and the knee area. The Vibration component provides whole-body or targeted lymphatic drainage and cellulite benefits across any treated zone. Multiple areas can be treated within a single session or across sequential sessions in a structured programme. Your specialist will assess your specific problem areas at your consultation and map the optimal treatment plan for your body.
Both Cello and CoolSculpting are based on the same underlying science — cryolipolysis (fat-freezing via controlled cold energy). The fundamental mechanism is identical: a vacuum applicator draws fat tissue between cooling plates that lower the temperature to the point of fat cell crystallisation and apoptosis (permanent cell death). The differences lie in the specific device technology, applicator design, cooling plate configuration and treatment parameters. Cello technology, as offered at Maynee, uses a precision dual-plate cooling system with vacuum suction calibrated to the treatment zone. The most important distinction at Maynee is that Cello is combined with the Vibration therapy phase — actively stimulating lymphatic drainage to accelerate fat elimination — making the combined programme more comprehensive than standalone cryolipolysis regardless of brand. Your specialist at Maynee will explain the specific Cello system used and how it is tailored to your treatment at your consultation.
Results from Cello & Vibration appear in two distinct timelines. Early results (driven primarily by Vibration therapy) are often noticeable within 2–4 sessions — improved skin texture, reduced puffiness, improved circulation and early cellulite reduction. The fat-reduction results from the Cello cryolipolysis phase take longer: destroyed fat cells are eliminated gradually by the lymphatic system over 6–12 weeks after each session. Most clients notice clothing fitting differently and measurable circumference changes from around weeks 4–6 after their first session. Maximum fat-reduction results are typically fully visible 10–12 weeks after the final Cello session of the programme. The combination of Vibration therapy actively accelerating lymphatic drainage means results appear faster than with standalone cryolipolysis treatments.
Cello & Vibration is well-studied and safe for most healthy adults. Common, expected and temporary side effects of the Cello cryolipolysis phase include: redness in the treated area (resolves within hours); temporary firmness or lumpiness of the treated fat tissue (resolves over 1–2 weeks as elimination begins); numbness or reduced sensation (resolves within days to weeks); mild bruising or skin sensitivity; and occasional mild aching similar to post-workout soreness for 1–3 days. A very rare complication called paradoxical adipose hyperplasia (PAH) — where treated fat enlarges rather than reducing — occurs in less than 1% of cases and is more common in male clients; this requires assessment and further management if it occurs. The Vibration phase has no significant side effects beyond occasional mild muscle fatigue. A thorough pre-treatment health screening at Maynee identifies any contraindications before treatment begins.
The cost of Cello & Vibration treatment at Maynee in Chennai is discussed at your initial body assessment consultation, after your specialist has mapped the treatment zones, assessed the fat volume and recommended a programme. Pricing depends on the number of treatment areas per session, the total number of sessions in your programme, and whether the Vibration phase is included as part of a combined session or separately. We do not publish fixed per-session prices publicly because every programme is individually designed. All pricing is fully transparent — a complete, itemised breakdown is provided at your assessment appointment with no hidden charges and no payment pressure.
Cello & Vibration is not appropriate for everyone. The Cello cryolipolysis phase is contraindicated for clients with: cryoglobulinaemia, cold agglutinin disease, paroxysmal cold haemoglobinuria or Raynaud's disease (cold sensitivity conditions); active skin conditions, open wounds or infections in the treatment area; hernia in the treatment zone; pregnancy or breastfeeding. The Vibration therapy phase has additional contraindications including: implanted devices such as pacemakers, defibrillators or metal implants near the treatment area; active deep vein thrombosis (DVT); severe varicose veins; recent surgery or injury in the treatment zone; significant peripheral neuropathy; and certain cardiovascular conditions. Both phases require a body composition assessment before treatment — and Cello & Vibration is most appropriate for adults at or near a healthy weight with specific localised fat deposits, not as a treatment for significant overall obesity. Your specialist reviews all of these at your assessment appointment.
