There are a multitude of reasons why some fat stores are harder to remove than others. It might be eating too many unhealthy foods – such as sugar, hormones, genetics, or low metabolic rate to name just a few. Some fats are naturally resistant to the breakdown process called lipolysis. And without intervention, it may be that these fat stores remain unaffected by a healthy diet and exercise.
How Does Ultrasonic Fat Cavitation Therapy Work?
Ultrasonic fat cavitation therapy directs low-frequency sound waves toward these stores deep within the skin. The waves create a vibration, forcing the fat molecules to dislodge and break up. From there, the lymphatic system absorbs the resulting fatty acids and removes them.
Non-surgical cavitation relies on the body’s natural processes to help remove fat stores, without the need for risky invasive procedures such as liposuction. While the results are promising and inches are lost from the targeted area, maintaining those wins means you will still need to continue with a healthy diet and moderate exercise. Developing unhealthy habits after cavitation may mean the return of those fat stores.
What Do Non-Surgical Lipo Cavitation Sessions Involve?
Results may begin to show within a few days of your first session. It may take longer for any noticeable results to appear. It all depends on your body type, the area being treated, and the amount of fat being treated. Fat cavitation therapy, or non-surgical lipo cavitation as it may be called, penetrates deep into the tissue to reach the fat deposits under the skin. Over the days following your appointment, your body will continue to process the dislodged fat cells, with results often becoming gradually visible.
During your non-surgical cavitation session, you may be asked to wear a standard paper gown and lie down comfortably. The practitioner will use a machine to target the area to be treated.
You might feel a warm sensation, but there should not be any discomfort or pain during this procedure. As it’s non-surgical cavitation, there’s no need for anaesthetic or any other invasive protocols.
The session should last 20-60mins, with an average of 40mins. 6-12 sessions may be required to fully treat the targeted area, and achieve the results you want, the exact number will depend on your circumstances. Your cavitation professional will discuss this with you at your initial consultation.
What to Expect After Your Session
While fat cavitation therapy is a completely natural and safe way to treat stubborn fatty areas and cellulite, there may be some minor side effects. Some people may experience redness, soreness, and perhaps even slight bruising. This is due to the pressure used during the session to target fat deep within the skin.
Everyone is different, and some people are more sensitive to the pressure applied. These side effects won’t last long – certainly nowhere near as long as the effects of invasive surgery. And, they do not present in every client.
Post-session, your body will continue to process the broken-down fats, so cavitation continues even beyond your session time. Practitioners recommend leaving at least a few days between non-surgical cavitation sessions to allow your body time to process the dislodged fats.
