Body contouring
Body contouring is often associated with long and strenuous workouts, sweating, and counting calories. Thanks to innovative treatments offered by modern aesthetic medicine, the path to this goal has become significantly easier today.
By using radiofrequency and ultrasound waves for body contouring, we can help shape your figure into the desired form quickly and harmlessly.
How do radiofrequency and ultrasound waves work for body contouring?
Ultrasound waves work by breaking down fat cells, thereby reducing the appearance of cellulite and giving the skin a refreshed look.
The role of radiofrequency waves is to heat the skin and subcutaneous tissue, which stimulates the production of collagen — a protein responsible for skin firmness.
The procedure itself is performed using the latest-generation Alma Accent Prime laser.
Which areas can be treated with radiofrequency and ultrasound waves?
The most commonly treated areas that often give us trouble with stubborn cellulite — which tends to persist even after months of gym workouts and strict diets — include:
- Thighs
- Glutes
- Waist
- Abdomen
- Arms
What do we achieve with the Alma Accent Prime laser?
As explained, by using radiofrequency and ultrasound waves, we can achieve:
- Weight loss
- Cellulite reduction
- Decreased circumference of the waist and thighs
- Figure sculpting
- Improved skin tone and firmness
- A rejuvenated appearance
What does the therapy with radiofrequency and ultrasound waves look like?
The body contouring treatment with ultrasound and radiofrequency waves does not require any special preparation from the patient. The duration of the treatment is on average between 30 minutes to one hour, depending on the size of the area being treated.
The procedure is painless, and one of its main benefits is that it avoids the use of scalpels and painful surgical interventions. Taking that into account, there is no recovery period — the patient is ready to return to daily activities immediately.
