How many areas can be treated in each session?
.
Only one area is treated per session, which is about the size of a sheet of paper. Each package will only include one area, in order to fully treat the area for desired results.
What is body sculpting?
.
Body sculpting targets and kills fat cells in the body without surgery. It allows you to shape and lose stubborn fat in areas such as the upper arms, abdomen, hips, and thighs.
Not only does body sculpting help destroy fat, but it also reduces cellulite, promotes healthy blood circulation, and strengthens connective tissue. This procedure is ideal for those who are close to their ideal weight, but have parts of their body they’d like to shape, tighten, tone, or define a little more.
How does body sculpting work?
.
Body sculpting procedures use different types of energy to kill fat cells and visibly tighten skin. Once the treatment is complete, the body processes and filters out the destroyed fat cells over the course of the next 3-4 months, which is when most people see the full effect of the procedure.
Is body sculpting safe? Does it hurt?
.
Body sculpting is non-invasive and involves little to no pain. Side effects to body sculpting procedures are very minimal, usually consisting of minor pain, swelling, or a warm feeling on the treated area.
Still, it’s always a good idea to consider your health history before getting treatment. Our friendly, highly trained practitioners will discuss which procedure will be the best for you.
How long does a body sculpting treatment take?
.
Depending on the type of treatment, your body sculpting appointments may take anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour or more. You can usually plan on coming in for 4-8 appointments before the treatment is complete, and will usually see full results over the next 3-4 months.
Appointments will usually be scheduled 7-14 days apart to ensure optimal results
What can I expect after body sculpting?
.
Because body sculpting procedures are non-invasive, you can return to normal activities immediately following treatment. You may experience some redness, swelling, or tenderness around the treatment area for a few days following the procedure. However, pain is usually very minimal.
What is Lipo Caviation? How does Lipo Caviation work?
.
Ultrasonic Lipo Cavitation is a non-invasive alternative to surgical liposuction that uses ultrasonic waves to turn fat cells into free fatty acids, which are easier for the body to get rid of.
The midsection, upper arms, thighs, hips, and chin area can be targeted with these low-frequency ultrasound waves, which penetrate the skin and create bubbles around fat deposits. The bubbles then cause fat deposit cells to burst, causing the body to get rid of fat naturally through the urinary tract and lymphatic system. The ultrasonic cavitation creates these bubbles in the liquid that surround the fat cells, which gradually grow, and implode. As the membranes of fat cells do not have the structural capacity to withstand the vibrations, the effect of ultrasonic cavitation easily breaks them, while sparing the vascular, nervous and muscular tissue.
What areas can be treated with Lipo Cavitation?
.
Any part of the body that has stubborn fat such as the stomach, back, legs, buttocks, arms, love handles, hips, and thighs.
Is Lipo Cavitation safe?
.
Yes, Ultrasonic Lipo Cavitation Is a painless treatment. Mild redness or bruising may appear occasionally but will be highly unlikely to cause any actual pain. This treatment is a nonsurgical procedure without anesthesia – it’s non-invasive and no downtime should be experienced after the treatment.
How long is each session?
.
The length of each session will be 1 hour per treated area.
How many sessions are needed to achieve results?
.
As with any body contouring treatment, results vary based on each individual and their diet/fitness routine. We recommend 6-15 treatments, although many experience results in as little 2 treatments. It is imperative to maintain a proper diet and fitness regimen in order to achieve and maintain optimal results.
Does this treatment replace diet and exercise?
.
No – in order to achieve the best results, our treatments must be done in combination with proper diet and exercise
Are there any side effects associated with this treatment?
.
Short term effects can include mild bruising and redness. The only discomfort during the treatment is the buzzing that you will experience in your ears with the cavitation machine. The buzzing or ringing sound will normally stop when the cavitation part of the service is over however, some experience a faint buzzing or ringing after the treatment up to 24 hours but nothing painful from this service. If you have any concerns, please be sure to ask your contouring specialist during your consultation.
Are there any guidelines to follow before and after the Lipo Cavitation treatments?
.
To make your treatments more effective, please be sure to drink plenty of water the whole time during your treatments series. It is important however, that you make sure to drink at least 1.5 liters before and after each treatment. This will help the liver and lymphatic system remove the fat. To also help the process of eliminating fat, we recommend 20-30 minutes of light cardio after your sessions to stimulate the lymphatic and urinary systems.
Please refrain from any alcohol consumption for 2-3 days after your treatments. Alcohol can prevent your liver from working to remove fats as it will make alcohol metabolism its priority before fat removal and could hinder your results. Alcohol is treated like sugar and your body will convert it into fat.
Should I receive treatment while I am on my menstrual cycle?
.
We do not recommend treatments of the waistline, buttocks, and hips during your menstrual cycle. We are happy to service you at a later date.
Things to avoid during treatments:
.
- No tanning during treatment series! Tanning will cause you to be overly sensitive to the ultrasonic and RF treatments.
- Do not have a heavy meal 2 hours prior to the sessions. Do not binge eat or fast!
- No caffeine or carbonated drinks 3-4 hours prior to the sessions and 24 hours after the sessions.
- No hot showers, baths or sauna straight after treatments

- Keep your skin hydrated and moisturized
How often can I have these treatments done?

Are these long-lasting results?
.
How long your results last is in your control. The fat cells that are being treated will not return however, how much you eat and how much you exercise will affect your long-term body shape. So, if you take in more calories then you’re used to, your weight and fat will increase and the permanent removal of fat cells from your treatment will be hidden by your weight gain.
