How often can you perform Fat Reduction?

Ultrasound Cavitation (fat reduction) therapy can be safely performed up to 2 times per week, with 3 days between each procedure.  

Does body contouring hurt during treatment?

Answer: Most non-invasive body contouring treatments are not painful but may cause mild discomfort. Clients often describe the sensation as warmth, tingling, suction, or pressure, depending on the method used. The sensations are usually well tolerated and subside quickly after the session.

How many sessions will I need?

Answer: The number of sessions varies based on the treatment type and individual goals, but most clients see noticeable results after 3–6 sessions, spaced about a week apart.

How long until I see results?

Many clients see results immediately after their first session and may visualize an even further change within the following three days. However, our treatments require upkeep and at least six to ten sessions to see ample results. 

What do I need to avoid before my body contouring treatment?

To experience adequate results, avoid alcohol and caffeine before and after the day of your treatment.

Can I exercise after my body contouring treatments?

Yes, exercise is excellent prior to and after your treatment, and we highly recommend it. It is very beneficial to complete a 30–45-minute workout within 24 hours after your session.

Should I drink a lot of water before my treatment?

Yes, it is crucial that you are hydrated for optimal results. You must drink a minimum of 2 liters of water 2 days prior to your first session and 3 days after. Being hydrated will give you the best results by flushing your lymphatic system.

Is body contouring painful?

Our treatments are all completely painless. You may expect to experience a buzzing sensation in your ears with Ultrasonic Cavitation during your session. Mild swelling or redness of the skin may occur after a treatment; however, this immediately goes away in a few hours. 

What can I Expect during my first procedure?

A certified technician will conduct an initial consultation, assessment, and treatment. You will also be given a wide range of treatment options to address your personal physique goals. 

Are the results long-term?

The results are maintained, especially when combined with exercise and proper nutrition. However, we cannot stop the natural aging that affects your appearance. For this reason, we recommend maintenance visits. 

Are body contouring treatments safe?

Answer: Yes, when performed by trained professionals, noninvasive treatments are generally safe and have minimal side effects, such as mild swelling or redness.

How long do the results last?

Answer: Results can be long-lasting with a healthy lifestyle. However, maintaining a balanced diet and regular exercise is essential, as the remaining fat cells can still expand if weight is gained.

How long should I wait after giving birth?

You should wait at least three months after a normal birth and at least six months after a C-section before getting ultrasonic cavitation. Perhaps you can get other treatments done or other body areas besides abdomen.

How do I get great results?

To maximize the effectiveness of your session, it is best to restrict products that impact lymphatic flow i.e. caffeine, alcohol and sugar in large amounts during the process. We recommend eating a healthy diet to enhance the process. We can provide a recommendation sheet for ideal eating during the process to maximize results. We recommend a detox to optimize and enhance the process. 

Can I receive treatment while on my cycle?

You can have treatment during your Menstrual Cycle but it is recommended to avoid the abdomen as you will not see the same results due to bloating.

Can I bring guests to my appointment?

No, we do not allow guests at your appointment. This includes children.

Do packages expire?

Yes, all packages will expire 180 days after your first appointment. Upon expiration your package will be terminated, and you will forfeit any pre-paid purchase amount. Please be sure to attend all appointments in a scheduled manner.
