RF can be used alone for the reduction of cellulite in areas prone to fat storage such as: thighs, buttocks, back, upper arms, and under the chin.
What is Laser Lipolysis? Laser Lipolysis is the use of the low grade/ cold laser technology, used to slowly break down fat cells, causing them to shrink & soften, which helps reduces the volume of fatty tissue needed to be broken down by Ultrasound Cavitation. Laser Lipolysis doesn’t hurt and clients will only feel warmth where the pads are placed. This is due to the clients body heat against the pads. Treatments last around 20-40 minutes. You can see up to 1/2 to 3/4 inch loss with this treatment alone!. This treatment can be performed on the; Abdomen, Waist, Back, Thighs, Arms and Calves. While some clients may see results instantly, keep in mind everyone's body is different. How many treatments are needed will depend on your body and how your body reacts to treatment. Laser lipo is a safe and effective way to seek treatment for fat reduction without having surgery. Laser Pads will be placed on your areas of concern, the procedure is painless. The laser penetrates to the fat layer causing the fat cells to liquify or melt. The fat will then naturally be flushed out of your body. Laser lipo is non-surgical and requires no downtime.
Ultrasound Cavitation is a relatively recent technology that is mostly utilized for fat reduction. Cavitation is a natural phenomenon that uses low-frequency ultrasound to mold the body without the use of anesthesia. It is a risk-free treatment that avoids scarring, discomfort, and downtime, and it is regarded as a safe alternative to liposuction. The ultrasound creates a high- pressure wave that targets the fat cell membranes and because the membranes are unable to withstand the pressure, they disintegrate into a liquid state that is naturally eliminated, resulting in immediate fat loss. It is possible to see results immediately but keep in mind everyone is different and you may need more treatments to achieve your desired results. Recommended 6 or more treatments for laser lipo and ultrasound cavitation to achieve optimal results, depending on your body and your expectations. Most clients continue to see results immediately and in the months following the treatment. Vacuum RF can be incorporated this will help to reduce cellulite and lift the skin.
WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED? Areas Fat Cavitation is effective on a limited number of body areas. Body regions where Fat Cavitation is considered safe and effective for removing minor fat deposits include: Abdomen, Thighs, Flanks (lower back), Arms, and Buttocks.
Radiofrequency Skin What is it? Using Radio Frequency waves or heat therapy are meant to remold tissues and encourage collagen production. RF Therapy penetrates deeper than the surface tissues of the skin, penetrating into the dermis layer of skin. This method works fast at promoting skin tightening and collagen growth which normally would take months to achieve. Treatments are usually between 20-40 Minutes. Radio Frequency penetrates deeper into the skin - Diminishes and Removes Cellulite - Reduction of Body Fats (Subcutaneous Fat) - Skin Tightening. One of the best things about Radiofrequency is that it is a non-invasive and non-surgical approach to skin tightening. Deep-seated soft tissues from under the skin are stimulated through RF. This facilitates healing through the production of new collagen tissues that are reactive towards the RF waves. Results can continue to appear for up to 6 months and can be done every 72 hours at most, to give the body time to regenerate collagen and rid of toxins. This treatment is not painful and will need to be continued to maintain results. (Maintenance should be done once a month to keep results after finishing with package). Photo rejuvenation therapy also available for the face and body. Bio light attachment can treat lines, wrinkles, acne, age spots and other cosmetic concerns.
What guidelines should I follow before and after the Ultrasonic Cavitation treatments?
To make your treatments more effective, please be sure to drink plenty of water the whole time during your treatments series. It is important however, that you make sure to drink at least 1.5 liters before and after each treatment. This will help the liver and lymphatic system remove the fat. To also help the process of eliminating fat, we recommend 20-30 minutes of light cardio after your sessions like walking to stimulate the lymphatic and urinary systems.
Please refrain from any alcohol consumption for 2-3 days after your treatments. Alcohol can prevent your liver from working to remove fats as it will make alcohol metabolism its priority before fat removal and could hinder your results. Alcohol is treated like sugar and your body will convert it into fat.
No tanning during treatment series! Tanning will cause you to be overly sensitive to the ultrasonic and RF treatments.
Do not have a heavy meal and do not eat 2 hours prior to the sessions. Do not binge eat or fast!
No caffeine or carbonated drinks 3-4 hours prior to the sessions and 24 hours after the sessions.
No hot showers, baths or sauna straight after treatments
Follow a low-calorie diet
Keep your skin hydrated and moisturized
What areas can be treated with ultrasonic cavitation?
Any part of the body that has stubborn fat. Stomach, lower back, legs, buttocks, arms, love handles, hips, thighs.
What is Radio Frequency (RF)?
Radio frequency is an anti-aging and skin tightening treatment. RF is about stimulating your own collagen production that penetrates the epidermis and heats the dermis at a comfortable temperature. This causes the collagen fibers to contract that pulls and tightens the skin creating immediate results and long-term effects.
Radio Frequency Skin Tightening
Radio Frequency is a revolutionary treatment that firms, tightens and lifts the skin, all without having to go under the knife. This treatment is non-invasive, so it is ideal for those who either don't want to take drastic measures of surgery. Unlike other 'non-surgical lift' treatments on the market, radio frequency actually stimulates the skins own natural renewal of collagen (which as we age, does not renew nearly as fast as when we were younger), resulting in smoother, tighter and younger looking skin. And the best thing is - Radio Frequency delivers great, visible results sometimes from the very first treatment.
This treatment is suitable for everybody, especially those looking to target fine lines and wrinkles or excess skin. Radio Frequency is a relaxing treatment that involves the application of a cosmetic gel and a warm wand passing over the skin in sweeping circular motions. The wand gently heats the lower levels of the skin to approximately 40 C. This tricks the brain into thinking there has been a potential injury and stimulates a healing response. This in turn causes increased collagen production and tightening of elastin fibers. The tightening of elastin fibers is instant, meaning he skin appears tighter and lifted from the first treatment.
What areas can be treated with Radio Frequency?
Areas of the body where there is sagging skin, lines and wrinkles, aging hands, stomach, lower back, legs, buttocks, arms, knees, love handles, hips, thighs and face.
Is there down time for these treatments?
There is NO downtime. Immediately after treatments clients can return to their normal activities.
How long are the treatments?
For each appointment, it’s about 10 minutes up to 1 hour just depending on the area that’s being treated and if you are doing a combination treatment. Please arrive at least 15 minutes early before treatment times to do consultations and measurements.
Are the treatments painful?
No, not at all and requires no anesthetic, no cutting and is non-invasive. The areas that are being treated will feel warm and have a warming sensation and redness that may appear occasionally. The only discomfort during the treatment is the buzzing that you will experience in your ears with the cavitation machine. The buzzing or ringing sound will normally stop when the cavitation part of the service is over however, some experience a faint buzzing or ringing after the treatment up to 24 hours but nothing painful from this service.
What are the side effects?
Cavitation does not affect the blood vessel, nerves or connective tissue so these treatments are completely safe with limited side effects. It is possible to experience redness, swelling, bruising or welting to the area that is being treated. Urinating right after or excessive thirst and nausea immediately after treatment but will shortly disappear by drinking water.
How often can I have these treatments done?
Ultrasonic Cavitation:
I recommend weekly, but each treatment plan is individualized. We will discuss your goals and develop a plan together.
After the initial treatments are completed, maintenance treatments consist of one session each month for 4 months followed by one treatment every 4 months if you are interested in maintaining your results.
Radio Frequency (RF):
If not combined with ultrasonic cavitation, generally once a week
Will I see immediate results?
Yes, most clients will experience noticeable circumference reduction immediately after the first session. Most clients notice instant lift and wrinkle reduction on the face after only one treatment. However, results vary with each client. Oily skin will have better results than drier skin. Dry skin has less water molecules for the ultrasonic and RF waves to work with therefore it has less elasticity and more fragile. Keep your skin moisturized and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Other factors are different tissue structure, treatment area, age, metabolism, medications, changes in hormones and physical activity.
Is this a weight loss treatment?
No! Ultrasonic Cavitation, Radio Frequency, and Laser Lipolysis are not methods to lose weight but to sculpt the body. You will lose inches meaning better fitting clothing. You will appear thinner and some people do lose weight. This treatment will enhance your weight loss efforts. This service is for clients that have stubborn fat that won’t go away with dieting and exercising. This is the perfect alternative to those looking to avoid the pain and cost of invasive liposuction procedures. Please note that these services are not used to treat obesity.
