THE TECHNIQUE

This is a technique based on medical sonication that causes a rupture in the membrane of the fat cell or adipocyte so that it releases the inner fatty liquid.

This effect is achieved by the application of powerful ultrasounds that generate transient cavitation. Bubbles that implode in the vicinity of fat cells, releasing copious amounts of energy that break the membrane.

It is not a question of any surgical intervention nevertheless; its possibilities are very similar to the liposuction of a localized area.

• Number of sessions recommended: 6-8
• Time per session: 20-40 min. (depending on the area to be treated)
• Interval between sessions: 7 days.

RESULTS OF ULTRA-CAVITATION

The results of our ultra-cavitation treatment in Alicante are gradually visible as the organism reabsorbs the unstructured fat and eliminates it through the endogenous route.

It is necessary to leave a period of about 2 months from the end of the treatment to be able to observe improvements in:

• Reduction of volume

Manual lymphatic drainage is a form of massage that acts directly on the lymphatic system through a set of soft and draining manoeuvres.

Radiofrequency is a technique to give extra firmness to the skin. It consists of introducing heat at the cutaneous level with the use of radiofrequency waves.

This heat will stimulate the formation of collagen fibres and activate the existing ones, so that increasing their number can give the skin a greater degree of tension and firmness.

What are radiofrequency sessions in Alicante like?

Prior to radiofrequency treatment in Alicante, our protocol carries out an ultrasound study of the skin and the dermis to assess the degree of collagen and elastin fibres that the patient naturally has on the skin.

If the number of fibres is suitable in the area to be treated, the response to radiofrequency will be positive and satisfactory results will be obtained, but if the ultrasound reveals that there are insufficient fibres to be stimulated in the skin, this technique will not work.

The radiofrequency machine in Alicante has a head that incorporates a roll-on and a cold terminal of in the tip. To perform the treatment, hydrating oil is used as a vehicle to move the terminal over the skin. By moving the roll-on over the skin, the machine transmits heat to the area, and the operator carefully observes and measures the temperature with a laser thermometer to raise it to 41 ° C and keep it at this temperature for 3-4 minutes.

All the areas to be treated are heated in a similar way and usually requires between 40-50 minutes for a treatment.

At the end of the session, the patient will notice a slight redness and heat in the area which will rapidly decrease. A flash effect will be noted with tension in the treated area of the skin. This flash effect will give rise to a longer lasting tension which will stimulate the collagen fibres to be maintained over time.

The treatment will achieve an improvement in tension and firmness of the skin that will progressively become more natural, depending on the natural aging process of each patient.

It is advisable to stimulate the skin for 3-4 sessions with intervals of about 30 days between them so that the production of natural collagen can take effect.
