Of course, all of us are aware of the term "liposuction"or the surgical removal of fats. And we've heard and read stories of the risks involved in this process. That's why a lot are NOT already considering it given its possible adverse outcome, cost and lengthy recovery. But thanks to the advent of non-surgical methods that effectively remove fats without undergoing through a surgeon's knife. Though these methods are not indicated as a form of weight loss, let us keep in mind that these are just "adjuncts" and does not necessarily elicit weight loss but rather, "fat loss"which is specific to the area being treated. This in turn provides body contour and a slimmer figure on the area subjected to treatment. A sensible diet and exercise are still needed to maintain the result.
1. LipoCavitation
Cavitation is one of the favorite alternative to
liposuction. It is painless, scar free and does not require an anesthesia. All
it takes is a 30 minute procedure per body part and voila, instant circumferemce
reduction of around 2-10 cm per session with increasing result after each
visit.. This treatment utilizes a low frequency ultrasound that creates bubbles
in the liquid which eventually grow and implode at a certain size resulting to
vibratory energy in the surrounding fat cells. Since our fats do not have the
structural capacity to withstand vibrations, the effect of cavitation easily
breaks them and the result is instant fat loss while sparing the vital tissues
such as the blood vessels, nervous and muscular tissues. Disrupted fat cells go
into the lymphatics for further disposal.
2. Radiofrequency (RF)
This treatment is very effective especially when you are
packing with fats coupled with unsightly cellulites. It involves the use of radiofrequency energy
to heat up and tighten tissues to boost blood flow and break down cellulites and
fats. It sends a penetrating heat under the skin without damaging it, in order
to break down fat cells and at the same time stimulate collagen production, to improve
tone and elasticity of the skin. It is especially recommended for mothers who
have just became pregnant and have sagging bellies. Radiofrequency machines have greatly improve
in technology, from monopolar to tripolar ones like Regen. Advanced generation
of this machine is correlated with faster results The treatment is very safe and has no
downtime. Best combined with LipoCavitation.
3. Biotone
This is an electronic muscle stimulation device that can
make your muscles contract passively with the precision of effectively
isolating it during contractions. When we workout, although we only wish to
target certain muscle areas, there are
certain areas that are also being made to contract inappropriately because of
poor or incorrect execution, which can result in injuries most of the time. By
placing Biotone’s electrode pads, muscles under it are made to contract
passively. This stimulates blood circulation and metabolism in the area
resulting in concomitant fat loss.
4 & 5. Mesotherapy and
Intralipotherapy
These procedures involve injection of fat dissolving
homeopathic mixtures to the fat itself. This
causes breakdown of fat cells in a process known as chemical lipolysis. This is a popular treatment for body contouring
in France for nearly 40 years or so now. After injection, fats become soft and the
area injected is warm to the touch signifying that the substance injected is
evenly distributing itself. The area injected will swell for a couple of days
but after that, marked reduction in size can be noted. The procedure can be
repeated every 2 weeks or until desired outcome is achieved.
