What is Ultrasonic Cavitation (Body Contouring & Sculpting)?
This is a procedure that uses high-frequency ultrasound to liquify fat cells (fatty acids) so that it can pass out of the body through the lymphatic system via sweating or bathroom "duties." This treatment is not a tool for weight loss reduction but rather to help sculpt the body area so that the collagen tissues can regroup and contract making the skin more firm and tight outside while also helping to repair skin at a cellular level.
Cellulite is common to women and ultrasonic cavitation has a proven effectiveness for treatment as it will minimize the cellulite. Keep in mind that a well-balanced diet will help to improve the results.
What should I expect with Ultrasonic Cavitation?
After your first treatment, there may be slight redness, excessive thirst, headache, or nausea, immediately after the treatment which can be resolved by drinking water directly right after the session. Symptoms are on a very rare occasion and should only last for a few minutes. Results may not be extremely noticeable but the area that is being targeted will slightly be contoured and will be slightly reduced in size due to decreasing or eliminating the unwanted fat cells. For optimum results, attend your treatments continuously as prescribed but keep in mind that results VARY due to: age, weight, medications, diet & lifestyle choices, genetics (tissue structure, metabolism, hormones), and area treated. More than one treatment is going to be needed; between 6-12 treatments are recommended, however, you should experience significant results from the third session onwards.
What you can expect from this treatment is that it is a non-surgical and non-invasive, so that means...PAIN FREE! You can return to your normal daily activities right after a treatment.
How many times and how often should I have treatments?
Body Sculpting: between 6-12 treatments spaced 72 hours apart for the first 3 sessions, then once a week are recommended
Skin Tightening: 6-12 sessions spaced 48 hours apart for the first 3 sessions, then once a week is recommended
After the initial treatments are completed, maintenance treatments consist of one session each month for 4 months followed by one treatment every 4 months (quarterly)
What you can expect from our services are that they are a non-surgical and non-invasive appointment, so that means...PAIN FREE! You can return to your normal daily activities right after a treatment.
What protocols do I need to follow before my treatments?
Avoid eating heavy meals the day of your treatment
Do NOT eat for two hours before your treatment
Use the bathroom before your session (depending upon the treatment area, you may feel more pressure in areas such as back/abs if you have a full bladder)
Drink 2 L (appr. 68 oz.) the day before AND day of as this is CRUCIAL to flush out the liquified fat cells!
Do NOT consume caffeine and carbonated drinks
Do NOT consume alcohol for 24 hours afterwards (also recommended to not consume 48 hours prior)
Do NOT fast or your body will go into "starvation mode" and become more resistant to releasing stored fat. Instead, speak with your healthcare practitioner about healthy diet options and supplements
Do NOT wear any lotion or products on the area to be treated
Do NOT wear any perfumes
Shave any body hair in the area to be treated
Please arrive at your appointment in comfortable clothes such as leggings, spanx, sports bra, etc. Depending upon your treatment area, you may need to remove your clothing to your underwear, so choose accordingly making sure they're clean (HA!) and you don't mind if gels/oils gets onto them (although we do our best to contain the placement of topical agents)
What aftercare protocols do I need to follow?
After your treatment, do NOT eat for two hours afterwards
Continue drinking water (2 L or appr. 68 oz. throughout the day), which is CRUCIAL to flush out the liquified fat cells! It is extremely important to keep hydrated to help facilitate the lymphatic drainage
Limit your intake of caffeine and carbonated drinks
Do NOT consume alcohol for 24 hours afterwards (also recommended to not consume 48 hours prior)
Do NOT fast or your body will go into "starvation mode" and become more resistant to releasing stored fat. Instead, speak with your healthcare practitioner about healthy diet options and supplements
Wearing a waist trainer or any form of "shape-wear" after each session can maximize results (2+ hours)
Increase your heartrate for at least 20 minutes by incorporating walking, a gym workout, moveable daily activities, or sauna treatment
What is Laser Lipolysis?
Using energy laser technology, devices are used to slowly break down fat cells (stored triglycerides into free fatty acids and glycerol), causing them to shrink & soften, which helps reduce the volume of fatty tissue needed to be broken down by body contouring & sculpting methods. This technique is non-invasive and you will only feel warmth where the pads are placed due to you own body heat against the pads. This treatment can be performed on the abdomen, waist, back, thighs, arms, & calves. How many treatments are needed will depend on your body & how it reacts to treatment.
How long do the results last?
The cavitation treatment yields immediate and long-lasting results...provided you keep a healthy lifestyle. A well-balanced diet and an active lifestyle should prolong the results of your treatment but if your bad habits continue, then additional "up-keep" treatments will be needed. If you increase healthier lifestyle choices, your treatment plan may be reduced since there would be less fat to be excreted.
If you're sticking to strict after-care instructions and continuing a healthy lifestyle, the fat will stay off. Not everyone notices the results after just one session but 90% of clients will. Sometimes you may need just a few sessions depending on your goals, but most will need 8-12 sessions to noticeably see results. Many appointments need at least 72 hours in between. There is no downtime and you can return to work or other activities right after a session, which is typically 60 minutes.
