In a complete shocker, LoveLite don't seem to actually provide the clinical studies it claims demonstrates the effectiveness. I've emailed them a request for the studies and I'll get back to you with their excuses for not sending them to me, if they reply.
Sorry, I'm a sceptic, not a cynic. I'll let you know what the studies say if they send them to me.
I can't find any published mention of cryotherapy being good for weight loss. The only mention of cryotherapy I can find in conjunction with mentions of fat are in papers which explore the relationship between depth of adipose and reduction in effect of cooling to the muscle. I did find this article which purports to talk about cryotherapy for weight loss, but it's very different to what's being described here:
I can't find the actual research itself, but even if I could, it's not really relevant. I only include it for completeness sake.
The only mention of how this therapy is supposed to work I can find is in this puff piece masquerading as a news article:

This is the proposed mechanism. I have nowhere near enough medical knowledge to assess whether this is in any way credible. My guess is that it's a couple of scientific-sounding buzzwords with little or no connection to reality. Or, alternatively, that the crystallisation and absorption of fat is something that has been observed as a side-effect in some legitimate medical cyrotheraphy, but it's either such a tiny effect that it's entirely impractical for weight loss, or it happens only in such extreme uses that there's no way it could be administered safely, or in just an hour. Or something like that.
I'll be utterly gobsmacked if this isn't a scam, but would like some people with actual medical knowledge to chime in.

Prior studies told the researchers that the growth of fat cells depends on oxygen and blood-borne nutrients. So, because of that discovery, they theorized that body fat loss can be manipulated by altering the development of blood vessels in the fat itself. To test this theory, they exposed a group of “pleasantly plump” mice to a low temperature environment. This resulted in the mice developing new blood vessels in their fat tissue. This resulted in the transformation of Mickey’s normal “white” fat into the more metabolically active “brown” fat. And since brown fat breaks down more quickly than white fat, the fat mice became skinny mice. |

The Lipoglaze treatment works by freezing the fat cells beneath the surface of the skin to minus 2.5C at which point they crystallize and die. The fat cells then naturally waste away through the body and the full results can be seen within six to eight weeks |
