Body contouring, or body sculpting, can eliminate fat, shape areas of the body and tighten skin. Body contouring, or body sculpting, is a medical or surgical procedure that aims to reshape an area of the body. It may involve procedures to, get rid of extra skin, eliminate excess fat. reshape or contour the area. Body contouring does not usually help you lose weight. Instead, it helps shape the body and address specific areas where weight loss isn’t effective or after significant weight loss results in extra skin. This nonsurgical option that uses heat, lasers and other methods. Surgical options include tucks, lifts and liposuction. Surgery has more risks and longer recovery, but it usually provides more noticeable results.

Ultrasonic Cavitation uses a bubble head handheld device which directly acts on the skin, penetrates the fat layer, and vibrates the fat cells at such a high frequency that the fat cells actually divide and are destroyed. Laser Lipo uses laser diodes directly onto the target area which then melts away fat under the skin. It’s also called laser lipolysis. Ultimately they both break down fat and melt it away. The only difference is that Laser Lipo treatments are hands-free, and ultrasound therapy is actively implemented by your trained beautician for 30 minutes using a handheld device.

Ultrasonic Cavitation uses low frequency sound waves to subject fat cell membranes to a strong wave of pressure. The cell structure cannot withstand this pressure and disintegrates into a liquid state and gets released into the bloodstream. This treatment is ideal for patients that have approximately 3cm of fat or more and require an instant reduction. It is also very effective at reducing cellulite, and when combined with Laser Lipo fat reduction techniques cavitation can produce some incredible results.

Traditional liposuction requires an invasive surgical procedure to remove fat from areas such as the abdomen, thighs, neck, and arms. Laser Lipo is non-invasive, and relies on Laser energy to slim the body quickly using heat from fiber-optic lasers at various wavelengths to melt body fat. This is a different process than liposuctin, which involves removing fat from the body using vacuum suction. The added benefit of Laser Lipo is that it spurs the production of the protein collagen, making skin more tight.

Because of your custom treatment plan does not destroy fat cells but rather empties them of their contents, the fat cells are capable of storing fat again. A balanced diet is the only way to ensure lasting results.
