This case report describes a full-thickness frostbite complication following cryolipolysis for subcutaneous fat reduction performed in a non-medical esthetic clinic. The deep and large abdominal wound (15 × 12 cm) required hospitalization and multiple surgical debridement before a two-step direct closure. Even though cryolipolysis is considered as a non-invasive and safe technique to reduce local adiposity, it could present some side-effects and complications. Health-care professionals should be aware of these risks and inform their patients about its potential sequelae.
本病例报告描述了在一家非医疗美容诊所进行的用于皮下脂肪减少的冷冻溶脂术后出现的全层冻伤并发症。腹部深处的大伤口（15×12厘米）需要住院治疗，并在进行两步直接缝合之前进行多次手术清创。尽管冷冻溶脂被认为是一种减少局部肥胖的非侵入性安全技术，但它可能会出现一些副作用和并发症。医疗保健专业人员应意识到这些风险，并告知患者其潜在的后遗症。
