What is ThermaSculpt Body Contouring? ThermaSculpt Body Contouring is performed using Ultrasound Cavitation technology? Ultrasound Cavitation is a fat removal technology that does NOT involve surgery – there is no need for anesthetics, no hospital stay or time off work. We utilize a unique cavitation technology that allows for non-invasive removal of stubborn fat deposits that never seems to disappear no matter of your diet or how hard you work out. The most problematic body areas are: abdomen, flanks (“love handles”), thighs (“saddle bags”), buttocks, inner knees, upper arm, male breasts. Your body can be now contoured with no anesthesia, no scars, and no down-time. What is the Ultrasound Cavitation Liposuction Treatment Like? The cavitation treatment does not require any special pre-treatment. It starts with circumference measurement of the target body area, continues with circular movements of the applicator over the treatment site, and is finalized with another circumference measurement. The duration of treatment session can vary from 20 to 40 minutes depending on the size of the area and the thickness of the fat layer. What Body Areas Are Treated? The treatment focuses on your preferred target area(s). You choose between the upper arms, abdomen, flanks (love handles), back (fat beneath the bra strap), buttocks, thighs, cellulite, calves and ankles. 3 to 10 sessions at 1-2-week intervals (depending on your assessment results) are recommended in order to achieve a notable result. Please understand the results are not typical and further treatments may be needed to attain your desired silhouette. How does Ultrasound Cavitation Liposuction Work? Cavitation is a natural phenomenon based on low frequency ultrasound. The ultrasound field creates the bubbles in the liquid, which gradually grow, and implode at certain size. The energy in the form of heat (minor effect) and pressure wave (major effect) is released. As the membranes of fat cells do not have the structural capacity to withstand the vibrations, the effect of cavitation easily breaks them, while sparing the vascular, nervous and muscular tissue. The treatment does not require anesthesia. Most of the clients consider the procedure painless and comfortable. However, you may experience a slight discomfort due to the specific noise spreading inside your body, but it poses any harm. The noise will disappear as soon as your body is not in contact with the applicator. During the treatment you may also experience a little warmth from the probe, which simply feels like a hot stone massage. There is a slight possibility of mild side effects such as transient redness, excessive thirst, nausea or diarrhea immediately after the treatment. The side effects are minimized and resolved by drinking water and will always disappear in few hours. Even though the studies have proven the treatment safe, the cavitation is not be used in clients with acute illnesses, comprised liver function, severe bleeding tendencies, pace makers, or during pregnancy. The cavitation treatment yields immediate and long-lasting results. Most of the clients experience 2 to 6 cm of 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. Benefits of an Ultrasound Cavitation Liposuction Treatment - Improve blood circulation & lymph circulation - Improve skin texture - Body tighten, excellent performance of Body shaping - No surgery / no pain - No anesthesia. - Remove fat cells permanently - Cellulite Therapy - Connective tissue tightening Radio Frequency Skin Lifting What is Radio Frequency Beauty? Technically speaking, radiofrequency is the number of oscillations (or waves) per second of the electric and magnetic fields within the radio waves portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. It is lowest of the electromagnetic radiation frequencies within the spectrum, which itself spans from radio waves, microwaves, infrared, optical (visible light), ultraviolet, x-rays, to gamma rays. By feeding an alternating current or voltage through an antenna or electrode, electromagnetic waves can be generated that radiate through space at the speed of light; called radio waves. Radiofrequencies, or radio waves, have wavelengths ranging from less than a centimeter to as long as 100 kilometers. By applying RF energy to the human body, which can conduct current and therefore act as part of the electrical circuit, any resistance encountered by the energy flow will cause heat to be produced at the site of maximum resistance, which can be used to cut or coagulate tissue. RF energy is able to penetrate deeper into the skin and affect the deeper dermis and subcutaneous layers, causing tightening and improvements to the underlying tissue structure, but with little change in skin texture or fine lines and wrinkling. How does Radiofrequency work? Utilizing RF to penetrate skin directly, using the resistance of skin and high friction between molecule can bring heat energy; it makes the temperature of deep skin rise, collagenous tissues temperature will rise. The collagen rising temperature to produce instant contractibility can remove wrinkle quickly and tighten skin, at the same time the heat energy that produced on dermis can stimulate collagen birth again, and then recombine and restore ill collagen, and then achieve the function of removing wrinkle and tightening skin. RF is short form of Radiofrequency; it means the vibration 6 million times of electromagnetic wave every second. Radio wave is a part of electromagnetic spectrum; it spreads as the light speed. What can radio frequency (RF) energy treat? Pure RF energy is used to treat skin laxity by tightening, and is best suited to patients with mild to moderate sagging of facial or body skin, usually those in their mid-thirties to fifties. It is commonly used to treat the forehead area (lift brows and tightens forehead skin), under the eyes (thickens skin and tightens and lifts the upper cheek skin), cheeks (lifts slightly and diminishes enlarged pores), mid-face, jaw line (diminishes jowling and sagging along the jaw line), and the neck (tightens skin and diminishes wrinkling of the neck). Benefits Of Radio Frequency Facial/Body Treatment - Face and Neck Lifting & Remodeling - Tightening and lifting flaccid areas of the face - Reduces wrinkles / Lift Sagging Skin - Enhances luminosity of the skin - Fat Reduction - Body remodeling - Cellulite Treatment and skin partial reconstruction - Increase Collagen Level - Tightening loose skin How many treatments are needed? The number of treatments that are required varies based on the individual patient’s condition and the results each individual hopes to achieve through the dual-layer technique. Most patients see visible results after 2 treatments, but optimal results may require up to 12 treatments. In addition, we recommend clients undergo a series of “maintenance” treatments every 6 months to prolong the beneficial effects of the initial treatment. CLIENT ADVANTAGES 1. None invasive treatment with no down time. 2. Suitable for all kinds of skin. 3. Relaxing, comfortable and painless treatment. *** PLEASE NOTE - The ultra-cavitation and radio frequency treatments are not recommended on clients who are significantly over weight and have a high body fat percentage over 35%. If you are significantly overweight, we recommend a series of Skinny Dip Body Wraps first to lower your body fat percentage.
