Ultrasound cavitation is a relatively new aesthetic treatment. Using leading-edge technology, it converts fat cells into liquid which can then be naturally drained by the body’s own natural filtration system.
Ultrasound cavitation
Generally, one fat cavitation treatment lasts 25-30 minutes where a single part of the body is treated. 72 hrs must pass between each session so that the body can eliminate the fat. The minimum suggested the number of fat cavitation sessions is between 6 and 10.
Price: $150 per treatment
HOW DOES ULTRASOUND CAVITATION WORK
Our therapist will apply a specially designed handpiece to your skin. The handpiece will then transmit low-level ultrasonic waves which consist of compression (expansion impulse that travels in high-speed cycles). This back and forth cycles then causes an infinite quantity of micro-cavities or microbubbles that gradually enlarge. This progressive enlargement finishes as microbubbles start to collide and implode, producing shock waves that favor emulsification and elimination of fat tissues (this phenomenon is called cavitation). The liquid is then easily vacuumed out from the body using the lymphatic and urinary system.
WHICH ARE THE AREAS WHERE TREATMENT IS MORE EFFECTIVE?
All those areas with localized fat: thighs, abdomen, flanks and buttocks are the most popular but there is no real limitation as to areas of the body.
IS ULTRASOUND CAVITATION PAINFUL AND SAFE?
No, cavitation is a painless treatment. Mild redness may appear occasionally but will be highly unlikely to cause any actual pain. The heat from the handpieces felt during the treatment is perfectly tolerable. This treatment is a non-surgical procedure without anesthesia – it’s non-invasive (no cutting, leaves no scars or the need for any postoperative course) and no downtime should be experienced after the treatment.
CAN YOU LOSE WEIGHT WITH ULTRASONIC CAVITATION?
Cavitation is not a method to lose weight but to reshape the body. It’s particularly indicated for the reduction of adiposity, the famous “love handles” that won’t go away with diet and exercise. Treatments remove cellulite preventing fat cells from recurring to the treated areas, without damaging the vascular system.
FAT IS A SOLID SUBSTANCE RIGHT? HOW CAN IT BE ELIMINATED THROUGH THE URINE?
Because ultrasound cavitation causes an emulsification of fat, converting it into substance easy to eliminate through the urinary and the lymphatic system.
WHAT DO I NEED TO DO BEFORE MY TREATMENTS?
We recommend a low-calorie diet and drink at least 1.5 liters of water before and after the session. Drinking water is a necessary part in order to eliminate the fat. Regular exercises such as walking or other aerobic activities should also be maintained in order to help the system to naturally process the fat after the treatment.
WHAT ARE THE NUMBER OF TREATMENTS AND TREATMENT FREQUENCY FOR EACH AREA?
Ultrasound Cavitation: 6-10 treatments spaced and 1-2 weeks apart per specific area.
ADVANTAGES OVER OTHER TREATMENTS?
- Noninvasive Treatment
- No need for hospitalisation or Anesthesia
- No scars or long-term marking of the skin
- Very little discomfort
- Elimination of the fat through a natural process
- 20-60 min per session
- Affordable
PREPARATION BEFORE EACH TREATMENT
Drink at least 1.5 to 2 liters of water a day a week before your treatment Choose an area you wanted to treat and start moisturizing that area thoroughly every day and at night. Hydration will help make the treatment a lot more successful.
