What is our Slim Body Therapy, or Cavitation?
Ultrasonic cavitation is a non-invasive method of correcting excessive local fat deposits using ultrasonic waves. The essence of the cavitation methodology for the correction of cellulite and the elimination of fat deposits consists of the transformation of the content of fat cells into free fatty acids that are naturally eliminated by the lymphatic system. A necessary condition when working with cavitation methods is to perform mandatory lymphatic drainage after a procedure through pressotherapy, vacuum massage, or manual lymphatic drainage massage.
How does it work?
Cavitation effects occur in fat cells under the influence of low-frequency ultrasound between 36 and 42 kHz. A breakdown in fat tissue is produced, in which a large amount of energy is released. Hydrodynamic thrust (a kind of micro-explosion) occurs within the fat cell; these micro-explosions damage adipocyte cell membranes (mainly fat) due to their strong tension. The triglycerides released that form fat cells are removed from the intracellular space through natural metabolic processes. In contrast, other cells and tissues (muscle fibers, epidermal cells, muscle endothelium, etc.) remain entirely intact.
How is the procedure?
Taking less than an hour (50 min), the session generally feels like a massage with a handheld device applied to the target area with a conductive gel on the skin; when contact with the area to be treated begins, a high-pitched sound may occur in your ears, this it is simply the sound of ultrasound waves resonating through the body. At the same time, high-frequency vibrations cause fat cells to micro-explode into smaller parts so that they can be eliminated through the body's metabolism.
It is approximately 30 min of cavitation in a large area such as the abdomen or legs; the next step in the session will be lymphatic drainage to help the body eliminate free fatty acids, which can be Manual or with suction cups.
Benefits of Slim Body Therapy (Cavitation)
Ultrasound cavitation can be used on any body area that fosters extra fat and weight. The treatment can be applied almost anywhere, from more minor to larger areas (such as thighs, stomach, back, or buttocks). It is also not invasive, meaning no surgical procedures are performed, and only powerful yet safe and effective waves are emitted to the skin, causing fat to burn and patients to look slimmer. Furthermore, surrounding tissues are left unharmed, and pain is negligible. Cavitation is virtually risk-free as it has been approved for many medical procedures in addition to cosmetic procedures and only lasts an hour on average! Results are visible just days after one treatment, and several treatments can help attain excellent results.
