Ultrasound cavitation is a non-surgical method of reducing fat using ultrasound on localised areas of the body. The fat is broken down and then removed from the body naturally through the lymphatic system. Even when you are following a healthy lifestyle it is possible to have areas of stubborn fat.
At Nuovo Clinic, we provide ultrasound cavitation in a safe, professional and non-intrusive environment. Our staff are highly experienced, trained and friendly in helping you achieve your body and wellbeing goals in the best possible way.
What Is Ultrasound Cavitation?
The fat cells in the treated area are broken down by the ultrasound wave. This fat is then released from the cells and is taken up by the lymphatic system and eventually excreted from the body. The treatment area is therefore reduced in size.
The fat that has been broken down is then taken up by the lymphatic system and eventually excreted from the body. Ultrasound cavitation is a highly targeted treatment for those who have areas of fat on their body that have not responded to diet and/or exercise and are seeking a non-surgical alternative for fat reduction.
It does not involve any kind of surgery, or the use of needles, therefore it is an alternative to liposuction for those who wish to lose fat without going under the knife.
What Areas Can Ultrasound Cavitation Treat?
One of the best benefits of using ultrasound cavitation for fat reduction is that it can be used on any area of the body that contains localised fat. So whether you want treatment on the abdomen, thighs, hips, flanks or upper arms, whatever area you want to reduce fat from, we can treat you.
Many of our patients have localised areas of fat on their abdomen, thighs, hips, flanks and upper arms. Even when they are regularly active and on a healthy balanced diet, these areas can hold stubborn fat. Cavitation is often used as part of a treatment package to contour these areas.
For example, some people may be generally happy with their weight but find that fat around their stomach or sides is particularly difficult to reduce. Others may want to focus on their thighs or upper arms. A consultation can help establish whether ultrasound cavitation is suitable for the particular area you would like to treat.
Is Ultrasound Cavitation a Weight Loss Treatment?
Destroying fat cells during cavitation treatment does not mean that cavitation is used for losing weight in general. The purpose of the treatment is to contour the body and reduce the amount of fat in specific parts of the body.
The best candidate for this type of treatment is someone who is already at a healthy weight for their height, but have localised areas of fat that have not reduced with diet and exercise. Maintaining healthy habits remains important before and after treatment. Regular physical activity, a balanced diet and adequate hydration can all support your wider body and wellbeing goals.
What Are the Benefits of Non-Surgical Fat Reduction?
For many people, one of the main attractions of ultrasound cavitation is its non-invasive nature. Traditional liposuction is a surgical procedure, whereas ultrasound cavitation does not require incisions or the surgical removal of fat.
Every individual receives different results from cavitation treatment, depending on a number of factors. This can include the number of sessions of treatment, the amount of fat in the areas of treatment and how each individual reacts to the treatment.
Is Ultrasound Cavitation Right for You?
As with any aesthetic treatment, no treatment is suitable for everybody. A plan can be established in a consultation with what you wish to achieve and whether the appropriate aesthetic treatment will achieve your desired results.
We have many clients who are already healthy but have areas of fat on their body that have not shifted with diet and exercise. For these individuals, ultrasound cavitation is an ideal non-surgical body contouring treatment. It can also be of interest to individuals who are hesitant of a surgical fat reduction procedure such as liposuction.
No single treatment is suitable for every individual. We recommend that you have a consultation with one of our medically-led practitioners to discuss your concerns, the area(s) that you wish to treat and the results that you can expect to achieve from the treatment.
At Nuovo Clinic, we can discuss your individual needs, and how ultrasound cavitation can help you reach your body contouring goals.
