Body Sculpting
This Ultrasonic Body Cavitation treatment that helps you lose fat without the need for surgery. Suitable for both men and women body sculpting using Ultrasonic Body Cavitation is an excellent way to remove stubborn areas of fat. Even with an active lifestyle and a healthy diet stubborn fatty deposits are difficult to eradicate. The treatment uses ultrasound waves to melt away fatty deposits re-styling your body making you feel more confident about your shape.
How does it work?
The treatment is a pain free non-invasive and non-surgical equivalent to liposuction. An ultrasonic amplifier delivers ultrasonic energy to subcutaneous fat typically in areas such as the outer thigh, upper arm and abdomen. The ultrasonic energy causes the formation of micro-bubbles which then collapse affecting the fat cell walls allowing triglycerides to pass out of the cell. The fat is then converted into liquid and is removed naturally through the lymphatic and urinary systems. Clients will have a significant increase in dieresis following each session. A change in smell and colour of urine may also be observed after the first session.
How long will the effects of the treatment last?
Once removed the fatty cells will not re-grow. The effects will be permanent, however, this depends on not gaining any more weight in the future. A healthy lifestyle and diet will ensure your new body shape is maintained. The treatment has not been designed for weight loss, but the re-styling of the body into a more desirable shape, however, the effects can continue for 2 – 3 months after treatment.
Once the fat is removed where does it go?
Fat is released into the blood stream and is processed by the liver. Some fat will be used as energy and burned off as calories whilst some will be stored in the normal way, but more evenly and not back in your same problem areas.
What areas of the body can be treated?
How long does each session take?
Before treatment commences a detailed consultation with the client is required. The consultation will cover the following areas:
Personal information

Consent
Photographs and measurements of the area to be treated will be taken. Before each session it is important that you are well hydrated preferably drinking 1 litre of water. Each session will last around 40 – 60 minutes per area treated. Normally clients will start to see inch loss after around their 3rd or 4th session, however, this will be different for everyone. Some clients see results after their first session. At Holistic Works a treatment consists of 6 sessions. As the effects can continue to work for 2 -3 months after treatment a final measurement will be taken 3 months after the final session.

Is the any after care after having the treatment?
You should not drink alcohol for 4 days after a session as your liver is busy processing the fat that has been removed so needs a break. You should also drink plenty of water to hydrate your body and consume a low calorie diet to ensure that the fat that has been released is used by the body as energy. Exercise is also encouraged. Aloe Vera gel should be applied to the treated area after each session. This can be sourced from Holistic Works.
