Cavitation

Minimum of 8 sessions are needed for results to show.
Cavitation is suitable to:
Reduce cellulite
Reduce size of the area
Reduce fat
Improves muscle tone

BENEFITS

No pain or down time

Ideal for body reshaping and cellulite reduction

Cavitation works by converting fat into liquid on a cellular level. The liquid can then be naturally drained by the body's lymphatic and urinary system. The device is placed onto the skin, transmitting low-level, pulsating ultrasonic waves. This process of compressing and expanding energy causes shock and pressures the fat cells, which eventually burst and emulsify. Recommended 2 sessions per week for an area 8-10 times per course. Only one area can be treated at the time as more areas treated at once would cause too much stress on the body to eliminate the fat.

IS IT SAFE?

It is safe and painless treatment. Very little discomfort can be felt due to ultrasound.

Super Laser Lipo + Cavitation

Laser Lipo is considered one of the most innovative methods to treat stubborn areas that do not respond to diet and exercise. Pads are placed onto the body and treatment time can vary depending of your skin type as it can take from 20-40 min. The laser within penetrates the skin at a specific wavelength (650nm), targeting fat cells and making them shrink drastically. These cells are permeated, releasing free fatty acids, water, and glycerol which normally only happens when the body is in need of energy. Results can bee seen immediately a single session can reduce 2-5cm, however, 8-10 sessions are recommended. Research has shown that 20 min cavitation treatment carried out post Laser Lipo improves results to even out the treated area.

IS IT SAFE?

It is completely safe and non-invasive, absolutely pain free and only some warmth is felt.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

Radio frequency

Radio frequency is suitable for:

Skin tightening
Collagen production
Wrinkle reduction
Minimising acne scars
Minimising pores

WHAT IS RADIO FREQUENCY?

The RF produces alternating high and low frequency currents no less than a thousand times per second. Water molecules within the tissue twist and vibrate, causing friction and creating 45C-60C degree heat. This heat promotes blood circulation and also generates a wound-healing response within the body. The dermal layer of the skin thickens and and collagen is newly produced, resulting in wrinkles being pushed out as the skin becomes more firm. RF provide controlled energy for deep up to 20mm and superficial 2-6 mm penetration.

HOW MANY SESSIONS ARE NEEDED?

1 session is needed per week. Consultation is required.

IS IT SAFE?

RF is non-surgical, non-invasive procedure without anaesthesia, and there is no down time after the treatment. RF is a painless treatment and only mild redness may appear, cooling gel will be applied after the treatment if needed. Keep your skin clean and free from lotions for 24 hours until it feels normal.
