Cavitation preparation for the procedure

An innovative procedure for eliminating fat deposits - cavitation - has quickly become popular in many aesthetic cosmetology clinics. What it is, how the procedure works, what effect it has on the human body, its effectiveness and how safe it is will be discussed further.

Ultrasonic (ultrasonic) vacuum cavitation in cosmetology

Cavitation is a modern cosmetic procedure, as a result of which, using a special apparatus, the fatty tissues of the human body are exposed to low-frequency ultrasound, which leads to the destruction of fat cells.

After the procedure, excess fat is naturally removed from the body. It is important that the procedure has a significant effect on cellulite.

Types of cavitation

There are 2 types of cavitation:

  1. Hydrodynamic - a method in which the pressure in a liquid is reduced. As a rule, this effect is achieved not as a result of changing the device, but as a result of changing its operation and increasing speed. Due to this, the effect of the procedure increases.
  2. Acoustic – with this procedure, an acoustic wave is launched, which is quite intense. It is directed into the liquid and passes through it. This procedure is used exclusively in cosmetology.

For people who have never encountered this procedure, it is difficult to understand how cavitation works, what it is, and even more difficult to understand the differences between the two types of procedures.

Impact zones

What results can you expect?

If we consider the procedure from the side of positive or negative effects, then the body receives more positive effects from cavitation than negative ones. Today, the procedure is in great demand.

At its core, this is liposuction, but the patient does not receive a dose of anesthesia and does not need to be under the supervision of a doctor after the procedure.

Cavitation is perfect for anyone who wants to lose weight quickly and efficiently. The effect of the procedure is noticeable immediately.

If the patient used the services of a surgeon and a poor-quality liposuction procedure was performed, then in this case cavitation will help fix everything.

  1. After cavitation, fat disappears for a long time. All areas that were problematic before the procedure become beautiful.
  2. Complete elimination of cellulite occurs after 3-4 procedures.
  3. The procedure lasts a minimal amount of time, but in one session you can lose 4 centimeters from your waist.
  4. After the procedure, patients note an improvement in their skin condition. She becomes more elastic and youthful.

After the procedure, no rehabilitation period is required, there are no bruises or hematomas.

Fat deposits and cellulite are direct indications for the procedure. But, like any other medical procedure, there are also contraindications.

Contraindications

Contraindications include:

  1. Any stage of pregnancy.
  2. Osteoporosis.
  3. Blood diseases, in particular diabetes mellitus, poor clotting.
  4. Infectious diseases, especially if they are chronic.
  5. Breastfeeding a baby.
  6. Weakened immunity and autoimmune diseases.
  7. Uterine fibroids.
  8. Skin wounds.
  9. Kidney diseases.
  10. Hepatitis.

There are other contraindications that should not be neglected: tattoos, scars, the presence of implants. If the patient is taking non-steroid drugs, the procedure can be done only 10 days after taking the last tablet.

Side effects

Despite the fact that cavitation does not involve surgical intervention in the body, it can cause side effects.

Among these side effects are the following:

  1. Increase in body temperature in the area exposed to the device.
  2. The appearance of vascular networks and hematomas if the skin is thin.
  3. Painful sensations in the area affected by the device.
  4. Change in skin color.
  5. Dehydration of tissues.
  6. Inflammation of the internal organs that are closest to the area of ​​influence of the device.

Among the listed side effects, the most dangerous is the last one. Inflammation of internal organs causes exacerbation of chronic diseases. Therefore, the cavitation procedure should only be carried out in a reliable clinic and by a professional doctor.

How often can you do it

Each organism is individual and the required number of procedures is determined by the doctor who will perform cavitation. On average, 3-8 procedures are performed to achieve maximum effect. There is only one rule for all patients: the interval between the previous and subsequent procedures must be at least 10 days.

Preparation for the procedure

Before carrying out the procedure, great attention must be paid to preparation. The body must prepare to release triglycerides.

The following recommendations should be used:

  1. At least three days before the procedure, you must avoid consuming any alcoholic beverages. You cannot drink even drinks with minimal alcohol content.
  2. During the day, you should not eat food that contains large amounts of fat.
  3. You should drink at least two liters of water per day for three days before the procedure. This is very important, since the procedure itself leads to dehydration.

If you follow the listed recommendations, the cavitation process will take place without complications for the body.

Ultrasonic liposuction (cavitation): technology

The day of the procedure also begins with preparing the body for it. 2-3 hours before cavitation, the patient is given a little more than one liter of clean still water to drink.

The procedure includes the following activities:

  1. Doctor examining a patient and identifies problem areas that need to be exposed to the cavitation apparatus. After which the skin is processed. Treatment is carried out with special means - gel, glycerin. Castor or eucalyptus oil can be used. Leather treatment is required. This is necessary so that the ultrasound device is in close contact with the skin.
  2. The device starts working. The rollers must rotate smoothly. The impact occurs on a surface of 25 by 25 cm. The minimum exposure time with the device is 30 minutes, the maximum is one hour. Thus, the doctor can treat two problem areas in one session.
  3. The last stage is massage. It is thanks to massage that fat is removed from the body naturally.

Cavitation for the body

Cavitation for the body involves getting rid of excess fat that begins to hang in problem areas. The procedure is carried out as described above.

The minimum amount of fat loss in the waist is 3-4 centimeters, and the effect of this procedure will last up to 2 years.

Thanks to body cavitation, a reduction in volume is achieved, which cannot be achieved even with the most strict diet.

Interesting fact! The body cavitation procedure is used not only for getting rid of excess weight. It is widely used to remove kidney stones and tartar.

Patients who have undergone cavitation confirm that thanks to the procedure you can significantly lose weight and easily get rid of cellulite.

Cavitation of the abdomen

The female body is distinguished by the fact that it is quite difficult to cope with losing weight in the abdominal area. Even if you constantly work out your abs and go on a diet, it is impossible to achieve the same effect that the device will bring on your own.

To get rid of the belly, 5-8 sessions are needed, after which changes are immediately noticeable not only in volume, but the skin itself will become more beautiful. Thanks to the procedure, excess fat is eliminated from the waist, sides and navel. The skin becomes more toned and its tone increases. Reviews about the procedure are extremely positive.

Facial cavitation

If the procedure is performed on the face, the bags under the eyes disappear and the eyelids tighten. When the procedure is performed in the chin area, it becomes toned and beautiful. No anesthesia is used, the procedure is absolutely painless. There are no scars left on the facial skin. The patient does not have to be in a hospital; there is no rehabilitation period at all.

Patients look much younger after the required number of procedures.

Cost of cavitation

The only disadvantage that many patients note is the high cost of the procedure. However, it all depends on the area of ​​exposure to ultrasound. You can compare the cost of the service using the table.

Areas where the procedure is performed Cost in rubles
Hand treatment 4500
Abdomen area 5220
Simultaneous treatment of the waist, back and abdomen 7700
Ultrasound on the buttocks 12250
Hip 12250

The cost is approximate, and it can change both up and down, depending on the location of the clinic and its status.

What is cavitation combined with to enhance the effect?

The procedure itself involves the use of ultrasound on fat. After the procedure is completed, all the fat that has been broken down is removed from the body using the lymphatic system and blood.

That is why, to achieve a good effect, patients are recommended to combine cavitation with lymphatic drainage massage. The ratio of procedures should be 1:3, that is, 1 cavitation for 3 massages.

Cavitation and vacuum massage (pressotherapy) simultaneously

Pressotherapy can be used separately from other procedures, but for more effective weight loss it is used in conjunction with cavitation. Thanks to the simultaneous use of procedures, lymph begins to circulate better and the water balance in the body is restored.

Pressotherapy helps people who are diagnosed with varicose veins especially well. Pressotherapy is an additional lift-drainage massage, which is necessary to remove fat from the body.

Laser lipolysis and cavitation

Laser lipolysis is also commonly called Hollywood liposuction. It involves laser exposure. Lipolysis is used as an additional effect. There are no contraindications for combined use with cavitation.

Lpg massage and cavitation

LPG is an abbreviation for the first letters of its creator's name. LPG and cavitation can be combined if it is necessary to get rid of scars that remain on the body, for example, from liposuction.

Rf lifting and cavitation

Rf lifting is an effect on the skin using electromagnetic pulses. It is carried out when problems appear on the face. There is no need to apply the techniques at the same time.

The technique is cheaper in cost, but its effect is less noticeable.

Myostimulation and cavitation

If we compare myostimulation and cavitation, then one procedure cannot exist without the other. Thanks to myostimulation, the achieved effect after cavitation is consolidated. Myostimulation helps the muscles become more pumped, and the patient’s figure becomes more athletic and fit.

Cryolipolysis and cavitation

The combination of such procedures is performed extremely rarely.

Moreover, if procedures are prescribed, then everything should happen under the supervision of specialists. Just 3 sessions of cryoliposuction will remove extra pounds and sagging skin on the body.

Cavitation at home. How to do

Independent use of cavitation at home is not recommended. It cannot be done without a special device. However, if you really want to, you can purchase the device for home use.

Home device for RF lifting and ultrasonic cavitation

If you decide to buy a device for home processing, then you need to be prepared to pay a considerable amount. The minimum cost of the device is 64 thousand rubles, and the maximum depends on the functions that it combines.

Device RF3.0 – its set includes special attachments for both the body and face. Weight – 5 kg. This device does not take up much space; you can install it in a closet at home. Thanks to its use, skin rejuvenation and tightening are achieved.

MBT-laser device made in China. This device can be used at home, but it is better if it is operated under the watchful supervision of a professional specialist. Its cost is on average 120 thousand rubles.

Cavitation gel

A good gel, according to reviews, was developed by Geltek-Medica. Its cost is 750 rubles. It is part of a series that includes anti-cellulite products, physiotherapy products, and a gel for ultrasound therapy.

The gel contains Aloe Vera extract, which soothes inflammation. The skin becomes calmer and more hydrated. The cost is 250 rubles.

Reviews from doctors about the procedure

Reviews left by doctors indicate that the effect achieved through the procedure is positive. The procedure is recommended for anyone who wants to get rid of problems associated with excess fat.

How does ultrasonic cavitation work:

my wife used the “cavitation” service at a beauty salon. After 5 procedures, the thighs became noticeably firmer. Class! 20 thousand rubles is worth it!

Description of the procedure

Ultrasound therapy (UT), one of the varieties of which is cavitation or radiofrequency liposuction, is one of the most effective methods of physiotherapeutic treatment.

The effectiveness of this method is determined by the specific nature of the interaction of ultrasonic waves with body tissues. In physiotherapeutic practice, they work with ultrasonic vibrations with a frequency of up to 3000 kHz with varying intensities and generation modes.

The primary effects of ultrasound are determined by its influence in relation to:

• tissue and intracellular processes
• diffusion and osmotic processes
• changes in the permeability parameters of intracellular membranes
• changes in the degree of activity of various enzymatic and oxidative processes
• metabolic processes
• increasing the content of nucleic acids
• stimulation of tissue respiration

Ultrasound exposure can change the course of pathological processes. At the same time, small doses of ultrasound stimulate them, and large doses suppress them.

Ultrasound therapy devices are used in surgical, physiotherapeutic, and cosmetology practice. In the latter case, they are used to eliminate fat deposits and stagnation in the subcutaneous fat layer (cellulite treatment).

Using ultrasonic waves, it is possible to ensure the destruction of the fibrous framework surrounding cellulite cells, improve microhemodynamics, and carry out lymphatic drainage.

Cavitation, as a type of ultrasound, assumes that under the influence of ultrasonic waves, small cavities are formed in the areas of their contact with biological tissues. This helps improve oxygen access, remove metabolic products from problem areas, enhance metabolic processes in fat cells, and activate lipolysis (fat breakdown).

Due to the complexity of this procedure and the presence of a fairly extensive list of contraindications, UT, and, in particular, its type such as cavitation, should be prescribed exclusively by a doctor. It is also justified if the procedure itself is carried out by a specialist with a higher medical education who has undergone specialized training.

Types of cavitation

hydrodynamic, resulting from a decrease in pressure in the liquid, which can be caused by an increase in the speed of its movement.

acoustic , which occurs when a high-intensity acoustic wave passes through a liquid, it is this type of cavitation that is used in aesthetic medicine. A cavitation bubble can move from an area of ​​low pressure to an area of ​​high pressure, changing its size. It may go through several periods of increase and decrease. Moving with the flow to an area of ​​higher pressure or during the half-cycle of compression, the cavitation bubble can collapse, emitting a shock wave and releasing a large amount of energy.

The mechanism of action of UT or radiofrequency liposuction

It has been established experimentally that cavitation effects occur under the influence of low-frequency ultrasonic waves. The higher the frequency parameters, the smaller the resulting cavitation cavities; the lower they are, the larger the microbubbles.

The optimal parameters for influencing adipose tissue are frequency values ​​of 38-42 KHz, at which the maximum number of cavities of optimal size is formed. As they increase, they displace fat from adipocyte cells. In this case, the “collapse” of microbubbles is observed, providing a hydrodynamic push with the release of energy.

Many such “micro-explosions” damage the membranes of adipocyte cells and release fat in the form of triglycerides from fat cells. In this case, about 95% of the released breakdown products are excreted through the lymphatic system, and 5% enters the blood, where it is converted into glucose. At the same time, other cells, such as muscle fibrils, epidermal and vascular cells, are not damaged due to their high strength and elasticity.

For any form of ultrasonic treatment, including cavitation, a contact medium is applied to the surface being treated, filling the existing air gaps. In this case, use special gels, glycerin or natural oils (castor, eucalyptus, lavender, sea buckthorn).

The key criterion for choosing a suitable contact medium is its ability to dissolve in lipids, as well as water.

Indications and contraindications

Indications for ultrasound therapy and cavitation

The experience of using cavitation as a type of ultrasonic therapy indicates its high efficiency in solving problems related to:

• with the presence of local fat deposits in the abdomen, thighs, back, buttocks, arms, and legs
• with cellulite treatment
• with the treatment of sagging skin
• with correction of defects resulting from surgical liposuction
• with the elimination of lipomas

Contraindications for ultrasound therapy and cavitation

The features of the cavitation mechanism, as a type of ultrasound therapy, set strict restrictions on the use of these procedures for persons with:

• blood diseases
• acute inflammatory processes
• mental illness
• severe forms of neuroses
• pronounced cerebral atherosclerosis
• presence of diencephalic crises
• coronary heart disease
• angina pectoris
• myocardial infarction
• hypertension above stage II A
• the presence of an artificial heart pacemaker,
• metal pins and implants in the treatment area
• vegetative dystonia
• arterial hypotension
• pronounced manifestation of pulmonary insufficiency

Advantages and disadvantages of ultrasonic liposuction and cavitation

Cavitation, as a type of UST, in comparison with other methods of eliminating cellulite, demonstrates the following advantages:

• sustainable reduction of fatty tissue in any area in one procedure

• relative safety for biological tissues

• lack of rehabilitation periods

• obtaining a high aesthetic effect

• no need for anesthesia

• no need to use compression garments

• maintaining the sensitivity of treated biological tissues.

Cavitation: before and after photos

Along with its advantages, the ultrasonic cavitation method has disadvantages associated with:

• very high cost of the procedure
• the need to carry out several procedures at precisely defined periods
• the need for subsequent lymphatic drainage
• a fairly wide list of contraindications
• the possibility of serious complications in the post-procedure period
• the need to adhere to a strict diet for a 2-month period after completion of the procedures.

Preparation for the procedure of ultrasound therapy and cavitation

Experts in the field of aesthetic medicine recommend introducing the following preparation regimen for the procedure.

4 days before cavitation:

• avoid fried, fatty and spicy foods
• exclude alcohol
• drink more than 1.5 liters of water per day

2.5 hours before cavitation:
• drink more than 1 liter of water.

A similar regimen must be followed throughout the course. This will help the body remove waste products more efficiently.

Progress of the procedure and technique without surgical ultrasound liposuction

Cavitation, as a type of ultrasonic therapy, requires a specialist to sequentially carry out the following actions:

• the ultrasonic liposuction procedure begins with identifying problem areas that require treatment

• the treated area is lubricated with a contact medium. In this case, use special gels, glycerin or natural oils (castor, eucalyptus, lavender, sea buckthorn). This is necessary, since the hands of ultrasonic devices must adhere well to the skin.

• the specialist, smoothly rotating the rollers of the manipulator along the massage lines towards the lymph nodes, acts on the problem area with an area of ​​25x25 cm. In one procedure lasting about 30 minutes, but no more than 1 hour, the master manages to treat two paired areas.

• the procedure ends with a massage that provides lymphatic drainage along the pathways of lymphatic fluid outflow.

The essence of lymphatic drainage massage technique:

• massage is performed from the hips, slowly lifting up and returning to the starting position

• begin the massage with stroking and patting movements

• after warming up, the muscles are squeezed tightly with the hand, vigorously “rolling” them from one side to the other. This ensures tissue toning, as well as fluid exchange in them.

• stroking is carried out in order to stimulate hemodynamics

• perform rubbing, providing pressure. This allows decomposition products to be removed.

• stroke again

• carry out patting and tapping movements, ensuring the “bounce” of the hand from the skin

• complete the massage with the lightest, soothing and muscle-relaxing movements

Number of procedures and expected effect

These manipulations are performed once every 5-10 days, in a course of 4-10 procedures. In this case, in the periods between procedures, approximately 4 procedures of lymphatic drainage massage should be performed (in the form of hardware lymphatic drainage, pressotherapy, manual massage, vibrovacuum therapy), which facilitates the rapid evacuation of split decay products.

The duration of each ultrasonic cavitation procedure is no more than 45-60 minutes. The duration of subsequent lymphatic drainage massage procedures is 15-45 minutes.

Maintenance cavitation course of 1-3 procedures once every six months.

The effect of the cavitation procedure is observed immediately and intensifies in the following days. In particular, the skin of the treated area becomes smoother and tighter, while up to 15 cm3 of fat deposits can be evacuated from the body in a single session. Once the breakdown products are removed, subsequent accumulation of fatty deposits in the treated areas becomes almost impossible.

To maintain and increase the effect, cavitation should be combined with myostimulation, cryotherapy, mesotherapy, wraps and other anti-cellulite procedures. In addition, you need to follow a low-calorie diet and actively engage in sports.

Video of cavitation procedure

Post-procedure care

In order to consolidate the effect of the ultrasonic cavitation procedure, experts recommend daily physical exercise (30-minute complex) and drinking 2 liters of clean water.

Possible complications during and after the procedure

During the ultrasonic cavitation procedure, the following side effects may occur:

• nausea
• difficulty breathing
• dizziness
• ringing in the ears
• tissue destruction in the treated area (burns) due to individual hypersensitivity. Treatment of such burns is not easy, sometimes leaving scars.

The process of destruction of lipocytes during the ultrasonic cavitation procedure can cause more serious long-term complications, manifested by:

• in exacerbation of hypertension
• in the occurrence of phlebitis
• in exacerbation of skin ailments
• damage to small blood vessels and nerve fibers
• in specific disturbances in the functioning of the intestines (“fatty stools”), indicating that the pancreas does not sufficiently produce the lipase enzyme. The presence of the mentioned complications requires medical intervention
• in the occurrence of osteoporosis
• in exacerbation of kidney diseases.

Cost of the procedure

The cost of 1 ultrasonic cavitation procedure today is:

• minimum – 2000 rubles;
• maximum – 6000 rubles;
• average – 4000 rubles.

The cost of 1 lymphatic drainage massage procedure today is:

• minimum – 500 rubles;
• maximum – 1500 rubles;
• average – 1000 rubles.

Laser liposuction (laser lipolysis)
Laser liposuction (laser lipolysis) is one of the methods for removing fat deposits, which, unlike classical liposuction, has low invasiveness, a short rehabilitation period and at the same time a good corrective effect. This method is quick to perform and does not require general anesthesia. Along with ultrasonic cavitation and cryolipolysis, it is considered an effective technique for removing cellulite.
Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy is the treatment of cosmetic imperfections and skin diseases with liquid nitrogen. The positive effects of dosed cold on the human body have been known since ancient times. And already in our time, scientists have proven that cold activates the immune, endocrine and neurohumoral systems of the body, provides increased performance and stress resistance. This method is quite widely used in the treatment of cellulite.
Vibration vacuum therapy for cellulite
Today, there are a wide variety of methods for combating cellulite, one of which is vibrovacuum therapy or vibrovacuum massage. It is a technique that affects the surface of the skin, subcutaneous fat and muscle tissue of the human body using a special vibration massager, which has two effects simultaneously: local decompression and vibration.
Thalassotherapy
Thalassotherapy – is an improvement in the general condition of the body through the beneficial effects of marine environmental factors (sea water and healing mud, algae). In cosmetology, thalassotherapy is widely used to combat the manifestations of cellulite. The use of anti-cellulite wraps, the action of which is based on the principles of thalassotherapy, can significantly reduce, and in some cases completely eliminate, this cosmetic defect.
Anti-cellulite honey massage
Honey massage for cellulite refers to manual massage methods in which natural honey is used as an active and lubricant. Honey massage has a powerful reflexotherapeutic effect, so it can be classified as a therapeutic type of massage. Its results are: a significant improvement in the nutrition of internal organs and tissues by improving blood circulation in the deep subcutaneous layers and muscle tissues, as well as intensive cleansing of the body as a whole and its individual parts, including the skin.
Anti-cellulite manual massage
To combat cellulite, an integrated approach is required, which includes: diet, exercise, various therapeutic techniques, one of which is manual anti-cellulite massage. It consists of many techniques that act locally on the foci of cellulite, breaking it into tiny fragments, which are subsequently removed from the body along with excess moisture, toxins and metabolic products.
Mesotherapy and mesodissolution - effective fight against cellulite
Mesotherapy is a technique in which various drugs or mixtures thereof are injected in microscopic doses under the skin to a depth of 0.5 - 6 mm with short and very thin needles. With its help, the body receives amino acids, vitamins, vasodilators and other drugs. Due to this, the condition of the skin improves - wrinkles are reduced, structure and elasticity are restored, acne and cellulite are treated, stretch marks and scars are reduced.
Ozone therapy for cellulite
Perhaps only the lazy have not heard about cellulite. The notorious “orange peel” on the thighs and some other places greatly spoils the life of a huge number of beautiful ladies. One of the methods to combat it is ozone therapy. Its effectiveness is often compared to liposuction, a rather radical and traumatic method. Moreover, the procedure itself is sometimes called “non-surgical liposuction.”
LPG massage or endermology for cellulite
LPG massage, lipomassage, endermological or vacuum hardware-roller massage is a procedure for complex deep effects on the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous fat (hypodermis) using the combined action of vacuum, self-rotating rollers and vibration massage. As a result of the influence of the LPG apparatus, the production of new fibroblast cells is stimulated, which synthesize collagen fibers, elastin and hyaluronic acid.
Cryolipolysis
All over the world, among all non-surgical procedures for removing fat and cellulite, the cryolipolysis procedure is popular and gives good results. Cryolipolysis is an effective, well-tolerated, noninvasive procedure that shrinks local adipocytes.

This is the best way to remove cellulite. I did a full course of cavitation and am very pleased, cellulite has decreased significantly.

What is ultrasonic cavitation

Cavitation (RF lifting) is one of the most popular methods of hardware body correction, based on the ability of cavitation sound waves to break down fat. This technology fully competes with plastic surgery: after all, a course of cavitation procedures has a similar effect, but at the same time it is painless, safe, and does not require a rehabilitation period or wearing compression garments.

How does non-surgical liposuction work?

The scientific term cavitation (this word comes from physics) refers to the effect of the appearance of bubbles (cavities) in a liquid, filled with steam, gases, etc. When the pressure changes or when an acoustic wave passes, the bubbles burst and the gas is released. This principle was the basis of the cosmetic procedure.

The cavitation apparatus produces low-frequency ultrasound pulses. They are applied under the skin with a special handpiece, and since ultrasound is an acoustic wave, when exposed to it, a huge number of such bubbles are formed in fat cells - adipocytes. As the bubbles increase in size, they burst and produce a micro-explosion, damaging the cell membranes of fat cells, but not affecting other cells and blood vessels. Decay products are removed from the intercellular space through the lymphatic system - i.e. fat, having passed into the liquid stage, leaves the body in a completely natural way.

Literally after 3 or 4 procedures the result is noticeable. One cavitation session removes up to 15 cm 3 of adipose tissue.

The conductive gel also contributes to the breakdown of fat cells - it is applied to the treatment area immediately before the procedure to reduce the friction that occurs between the working attachment and the skin. The maximum duration of the procedure without the risk of overheating is 60 minutes, although on average it takes no more than half an hour.

Why is ultrasonic cavitation needed?

Cavitation works effectively in several directions at once. In addition to reducing the volume of the fat layer, correcting weight and figure, using this procedure you can get rid of cellulite, lipomas (benign tumors that form on fatty tissues), correct defects after liposuction surgery, and also improve the structure and condition of the skin.

Is the cavitation procedure painful?

This procedure is completely painless, you can even call it pleasant. During cavitation, the top layer of skin is not damaged, and there are no bruises, scars or scars left on the body.

How quickly will the effect of the cavitation procedure be noticeable?

Already after the first cavitation procedure, even with the naked eye you can notice positive changes, because in one session up to 15 cm 3 of fat is removed from the body! The greatest effect is achieved after 3 – 4 procedures.

Do I need to follow a special regimen after the procedure?

To improve the effect of cavitation and accelerate the removal of decay products from the body, it is recommended to drink at least two liters of water in the next two to three days after the procedure. Just as before the procedure, for three days after the cosmetic treatment it is recommended not to drink alcoholic beverages, and also to refrain from fatty, spicy and fried foods.

What effect does cavitation have?

Thanks to the cavitation procedure, a visible aesthetic effect appears, excess volume in problem areas of the body disappears (from 1 to 5 cm for each session!), weight decreases (not so significantly), the notorious “orange peel” disappears. The skin at the site of treatment becomes smoother, more elastic and beautiful, and the contours of the figure acquire clearer outlines. It should be noted that the effect of cavitation lasts for two years.

Can men undergo the procedure?

Yes, the cavitation procedure is indicated for both women and men who are overweight. Particular care should be taken only in the groin area.

Is special preparation required for the cavitation procedure?

Cosmetologists advise refraining from drinking alcohol for three days before the procedure, and not loading the liver and kidneys with excessively fatty and spicy foods and fried foods. Also, within three days before cavitation, you need to drink 1.5 - 2 liters of liquid, and 2 - 3 hours before the start of the session, drink about a liter of clean still water.

1.After the session you need a diet. Avoid sweets and fatty foods, try to eat as many complex carbohydrates (cereals) as possible;

2.Many myths about cavitation say that after the session the effect will occur immediately. This is not true, ultrasound has a cumulative quality, therefore, the more procedures, the better. At the same time, do not neglect wraps and massage;

3.After a course of procedures, you need to use various methods to enhance lymph outflow. This could be scrubs, exercises.

The advantages of cavitation are:

· breakdown of fat deposits;

Improved skin elasticity;

· elimination of cellulite in problem areas;

· absence of hematomas and various injuries after the procedure.

Contraindications to cavitation include:

· malfunctions of the immune system;

· blood clotting disorder;

If there are wounds at the site of treatment, then cavitation will have to be postponed until they have completely healed.

All of the above conditions are absolute contraindications, but there are also relative ones. These include the presence of scars, tattoos, and implants in the affected area. In addition, it is important to stop taking aspirin and other non-steroidal medications 10 days before the procedure.

It should not be performed on people with individual intolerance to ultrasound or those with chronic diseases (type 1 diabetes, infectious diseases, etc.). In such cases, this procedure can worsen the body’s condition and lead to unforeseen complications.

The average course of treatment ranges from 3 to 10 procedures. It all depends on the desired result and the initial condition of the patient. If necessary, the course is repeated after six months.

The duration of one procedure depends on the affected area. As a rule, half an hour is enough to achieve effectiveness. It is not recommended to carry out the procedure for less than 20 minutes, since it is difficult to achieve the desired result in such a time. One session should not exceed 45 - 60 minutes.

No diet can give such a result; both ultrasonic cavitation and liposuction are less effective. This is the only way to influence the number of fat cells, but not their size and volume. Internal organs and blood vessels are protected from damage.
