FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS!

What is the Ultrasonic Cavitation RF Laser Lipo treatment like? 

The procedure starts with circumference measurement of the target body area, then a gel is applied, and a ultrasonic hand piece is applied to the target area.  It continues with linear and circular movements of the hand piece over the treatment site.  Next, Vacuum Therapy is used to stimulate blood flow, and a Radio Frequency hand piece is used which is slowly rotated over the targeted area, transmitting radio waves to the skin heating it comfortably.  The heat causes contraction of the collagen fibers to immediately tighten the skin.  Finally, Laser Slimming pads are used to stimulate lymphatic drainage and metabolism.  The duration of a treatment session normally takes around 90 minutes each depending on the size of the area and the thickness of the fat layer.  Results can sometimes be noticed after the first treatment with more improvement noticed within a few days.  6-10 sessions at 3 days intervals are recommended in order to achieve an ideal result, but further treatments may be needed to attain your desired figure.

How does it feel during the Ultrasonic  RF treatment?  

Most people feel the treatment is painless and comfortable.  Some people may feel slight discomfort due to the specific noise spreading inside the body, but causes no harm and disappears as soon as the applicator is moved away from body.  The Vaccum Therapy may cause soreness and redness that will go away within 24-48 hours.  You may also experience warmth during the treatment.  If on the slim chance it gets too warm, you can immediately request extra ultrasound gel to be applied.

What can be treated with the Laser Lipo system? 

Fat Reduction!

Skin Tightening & Fat Melting!

Body Sculpting!

What can be treated with Radio Frequency(RF)?

RF is a effective way to improve skin tightness and elasticity, reduce wrinkles and cellulite, boosting the overall condition on areas of the body such as the face, chin, abdomen, thighs, bra line or buttocks.


Who can have Ultrasound and RF treatments? 

People who are generally healthy are safe to have the treatment.

People with cardiac and vascular diseases, diabetes, acute illness, comprised liver function, severe bleeding tendencies, pacemaker carriers and women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should avoid undergoing the procedure.

Is Ultrasound Cavitation & RF painful?  

Cavitation and  RF is a painless treatment.  Mild redness may appear occasionally but will be highly unlikely to cause any actual pain.  The heat from the hand pieces felt during the treatment is perfectly tolerable.

Is Ultrasound Cavitation & RF safe?  Are there any side effects?

Ultra Cavitation is a safe, nonsurgical procedure without anesthesia, it is non-invasive, no cutting, no scars, and no downtime should be experienced after the treatment.  Due to specific ultrasound parameters of energy levels ensure selective damage to fat cells only and do not interfere with any other organs.  There is no report of side effects for these treatments.  However some people may experience transient redness, excessive thirst, and nausea immediately after the treatment which is always resolved by drinking water.  They are all short-term effects that will disappear shortly.

What can one expect with the results?  

The cavitation treatment yields immediate and long lasting results.  Ultrasonic cavitation is a very effective procedure that requires around 6-10 treatments consisting of 90 minutes each.  Most of the clients experience noticeable circumference reduction after a single session with increasing results after each visit.  The results may vary with different tissue structure, treatment area, age, metabolism, medications, and changes in hormones.  Proper diet and increased physical activity will certainly improve and help to maintain the results.

Which areas are suitable for the treatment? 

Areas with localized fat such as abdomen and love handles where diet and exercise alone have not been able to get rid of are the most appropriate, but there is no real limitation as to areas of the body.

Can Ultrasonic Fat Cavitation make you lose weight? 

Cavitation is not a method to lose weight but to reshape the body.  It is particularly successful for the reduction of fat around love handles and the stomach area.  Treatments can be considered a deep fat blaster that reduces stubborn fat cells that cannot be removed with exercise and diet alone.

What is the difference between ultrasonic cavitation and liposuction? 

The Ultrasonic Cavitation has the similar result as liposuction.  It removes cellulite and excess fat. preventing this from recurring in the treated areas, without damaging the vascular system.  The procedure is painless and is very inexpensive compared to the thousands of dollars you could spend on liposuction.

How is the fat eliminated from the body? 

The ultrasound cavitation causes an emulsification of fat.  It ruptures fat cell membranes, thereby releasing the fat content and converting it into a substance easy to eliminate through the lymphatic system.  Then, it eventually is eliminated through urine.
 
Do I need to follow any guidelines before or after undergoing Ultrasound Cavitation RF Laser Lipo? 

Try to avoid doing anything that will irritate your skin immediately before treatment.  This includes tanning (natural or artificial). It would be more likely to suffer pain from the addition of heat to the already damaged skin; however an established tan would be fine.

Do not take a hot shower, bath, or sauna right after the Ultrasound treatment.

I recommend a low calorie diet with protein in each meal and drinking lots of water (not carbonated, sparkling water, pop, coffee) before and after the session.  Drinking plenty of water and exercising after a treatment can help stimulate the lymphatic activity as elimination of the fat continues through the Lymphatic System for 72hrs.  Cavitation will be best performed under high hydration conditions.  Try to avoid taking any caffeine or diuretics 2 days before therapy.  Drinking a lot of water will also help to improve your metabolism and increase urine output where lipid metabolites are released out of your body.

For best results you should refrain from any alcohol consumption for 48 hours after the treatment.  Alcohol consumption during this period may prevent your liver from removing the deactivated fat cells from your body (as the liver will assign priority to removing the alcohol from your blood). 

Maintaining an un-stressful life style also helps the body flush out the fat more efficiently.

How many times and how often should I have the treatments?

I recommend doing Ultrasound Cavitation RF Laser Lipo as follows: 6-10 sessions spaced at least 3 days apart and no more than 14 days.  

After the initial treatments are completed, I recommend maintenance treatments consisting of one session each month for 4 months followed by one treatment every 4 months.
