Cavitation uses scientifically proven non-invasive ultrasound

energy to breakdown unwanted fat. Cavitation uses and ultrasound wave to

mechanically disrupt the cell membrane of a fat cell. The ultrasound wave

creates a vibration within the fat layer, the fat cells do not have the structural

capacity to withstand this vibration and the cell membrane will very quickly

break down. These broken cells then release the triglycerides into the interstitial

space in-between the cells, where they are enzymatically changed into free

fatty acid and glycerol. Water soluble glycerol is absorbed by the circulatory

system and used as the energy source. Insoluble free fatty acids are

transported to the liver and processed.

 Cryolipolysis uses a chilled hand piece to create apoptosis

within the fat in targeted areas. Subcutaneous fat cells have been proven to be

more vulnerable to cold than the surrounding tissue. When fat cells are exposed

to a precise cooling below body temperature, they undergo crystallisation,

separation and localised cell death (apoptosis). This is followed by a local

inflammatory response. This stimulates a natural fat removal process that

continues for several months after the procedure. The treated fat cells in the

treatment area are gently removed though natural metabolic processes within

the body, which will gradually reduce the thickness of the fat layer.

Radio Frequency (RF)  is a general method to heat deep

skin layers by delivering High Frequency electrical current via poles/electrodes

to the body. During application, electrons flow as current (energy) through a

completed circuit when provided with voltage. When the electrons encounter

any resistance to their flow, heat is produced at the site of maximum

resistance. (Gel or glycerine is used to help lower this resistance on the stratum

corneum). Skin layers act like resistors in series to the HF electrical current and

depending on their resistance they heat up to varying temperatures.
