This procedure uses a combination of cavitation, vacuum therapy, and laser lipo to treat one area of the body to achieve desired results. One session can be done for the stomach, arms, back, love handles, thighs, and butt.
Cavitation is an invasive body sculpting treatment with no anesthesia, scars, discomfort, and downtime. It’s a risk-free alternative to liposuction. The result is an instant loss of fat loss.
Vacuum bipolar RF helps to firm skin, enhance skin elasticity and dissolve fat that can be drained naturally. The procedure can also be used for reshaping especially after fat loss. The probe works by promoting tissue metabolism and repelling cellulite.
Laser lipo involves the application of a highly sensitive laser to dissolve fat deposits. This procedure leads to a permanent loss of fat if a healthy lifestyle is maintained.
Areas that can be treated: arms, stomach, back, love handles, thighs and butt.
