What is Fat Cavitation?

Fat cavitation is a quick and painless form of fat loss. This service is a non-invasive fat reduction treatment that uses ultrasound technology to reduce fat cells in targeted parts of the body. It is the preferred option for anyone who does not want to undergo extreme options such as liposuction, as it is does not involve any needles or surgery. In addition to that, it has zero recovery time and is painless - often taking less than an hour.  The session usually feels like a massage with a handheld device, and you see a reduction of 1-4 cm's with every session in the treated area. We will take measurements before and after your session along with photos to track your progress!

How does it work?

An ultrasound device similar to that used in pregnancy scans is applied to the targeted area, along with a specially designed cream. This device transmits concentrated levels of ultrasonic energy that target and destroy subcutaneous fat cells in the fat cell membrane. The fat is then dispersed into surrounding cells and recycled into proteins and glycerol.

What are the benefits of fat cavitation treatment?

Ultrasound fat cavitation can be used on virtually any area of your body where you’re carrying extra weight. Common treatment spots include the belly, thighs, buttocks, or back. It's also one of the only technologies available that can show you results as effective as those you expect from liposuction or surgery, provided you complete the recommended number of sessions (usually between 8-12).

Preparation

Prior to having Ultrasound Cavitation you should follow a low fat/low carb diet and drink at least 2 liters of water 24 hours before your treatment. For 3 days following your treatment, you should continue to drink 2-3 liters of water a day.

After Care

After care is crucial for achieving best results from ultrasound fat cavitation treatments. The after care for ultrasound fat cavitation is detailed, however it is worth sticking to. The treatment will only work at its optimum if the after care is followed.

Hydration is going to be key to the detoxing post treatment. Stagger 2L intake of water over 24 hours, for three days post-treatment. I always have my 2L bottle with me, which encourages me to keep up my water intake.

The ultrasound fat cavitation treatment works by eliminating fat and toxins via the lymphatic and urinary systems. The body requires three days to properly eliminate the fat and toxins after a treatment. Treatment intervals also need to reflect this; at least three days must pass between each session. For most clients, I recommend a minimum of between six and ten fat cavitation treatments for best results.

It is important to topically stimulate the treatment area following your session. A body brush in the shower to promote movement around the area or dry brushing is ideal. Use a body moisturizer daily, and liberally massaging moisturizer on the treatment area is also beneficial. Do this daily to prevent fat and toxins from becoming stagnant and difficult to eliminate.

 Maintaining a low calorie, low carbohydrate, low fat, and low sugar diet for 24 hours pre-treatment and three days post-treatment will help achieve the best results. This is to ensure your body utilizes the triglycerides (a type of body fat) released by the fat cavitation process. If suitable, I also encourage my clients to stick to this diet as much as they can. Many find this to be a great starting point for maintaining a healthier lifestyle in the future.

A minimum of 20 minutes of elevated heart rate cardio exercise is required post-treatment. This is best to be done immediately after the treatment, and for three days following. This is to ensure the stored energy released by the cavitation process is burnt off. If cardio is not your style, this where infrared sauna sessions may assist, as it has a similar effect on the body.

Additional steps can be taken to achieve optimum results. You can assist your body to flush toxins by following your treatment with the use of an infrared sauna. Lymphatic drainage will help eliminate released toxins from the body. This can be done post-treatment via a massage or using the cavitation vacuum treatment. Both can be completed at KiKi Beauty Bar immediately after your treatment.

By following the ultrasound fat cavitation after care plan, the results will be visible. It is a non-invasive treatment which requires no downtime, and offers results which are comparable to liposuction.
