All About Body Contouring
Body Contouring
Weight loss is usually associated with hard sessions at the gym or strict diets, however, our team has introduced our newest machine to our clinic to help you achieve a more sculpted body that you can feel confident with. Our AW3 machine uses cutting edge technology and bringing together 4 different types of technology to help you achieve the results you desire.
- FAT FREEZING
What is “fat freezing”? Using our specially targeting freezing handles fat freezing is a non-invasive treatment used to reduce unwanted fat by using sub-zero temperatures to kill the fat cells without damaging the surrounding tissues and nerves.
How does it work? The handle is applied to the treatment area targeting fat loss, using advanced cooling technology to selectively target fat cells and freeze them. This procedure is known as apoptosis and it is gradually eliminated from the body through the bodies natural waste disposal system, taking up to 30 days.
Is it painful? During your session clients can remain comfortable and can resume back to work immediately after and there is no downtime after.
How many sessions are needed? One session is sufficient for most people for most areas, freezing has hr advantage of not usually needing a course of treatments depending on the thickness of the fat and your personal goals. A second session if required or requested isn’t necessary until up to 2 months later.
Who is this recommended for? Fat freezing is recommended for anyone who is at their ideal weight and has some stubborn areas they would like a reduction for. This is not the ideal treatment for someone who isn’t at a steady weight.

- LASER LIPOLYSIS
What is “laser lipolysis”? Laser lipolysis is a minimally invasive procedure that uses heat from fibre-optic lasers at various wavelengths to melt unwanted superficial body fat. The added benefit is that it starts production of collagen, overall making the skin more taught.
Is it painful? Not at all! Clients will feel no pain except for maybe some warmth.
How does fat eliminate in the body? The released fat is used by the body as a source of energy. By avoiding fatty foods within 48 hours after treatment the body will use the released fat as energy rather than fatty food.
How long does a session take? Between 20-60 minutes depending on your skin Fitzpatrick and what your therapist recommends you.

- FAT CAVITATION
What is “fat cavitation”? Fat cavitation is a body contouring system which targets fatty deposits that cannot be shifted with diet and exercise. It is a non-invasive painless treatment that shapes the body, eliminates fat and reduces cellulite.
How does it work? Fat cavitation work through specially designed handpiece which produces ultrasonic waves, the ultrasound waves create intense vibrations which cause disruption to the membranes of your fat tissues, turning the fat into liquid. The liquid is then naturally released from the body using the lymphatic and urinary system.
How many sessions are needed? 2 sessions per week per 8-week course per area OR 1 session a week for 10-16 weeks per course per area.

- RADIO FREQUENCY SKIN TIGHTENING
What is radiofrequency skin tightening? Radiofrequency is an aesthetic technique that uses radiofrequency energy to heat the tissue and stimulate subnormal collagen production in order to reduce the appearance of fine lines and loose skin. RF can be used for heating and reducing fat.
How does it work? The RF energy enters the dermal layer of the skin and is heated up to 45-60c, the skin becomes thickened and with the new collagen production in the skin wrinkles, fine lines and cellulite are pushed out so the skin becomes firmer and the contours are lifted.
Is it painful? RF is a painless treatment. Mild redness may occur occasionally but will subside shortly after treatment is ended. The heat from the handpiece felt through the treatment is totally tolerable.
How many sessions are needed? 1 session per week per area per 8 weeks course.
