What is it?
Non-Invasive Body Contouring is a procedure that alters the shape of the human body. It includes procedures that eliminate or reduce excess skin and stubborn fat in a variety of places including the torso, upper arms, chest, butt, neck and thighs.
Body Contouring is not a weight loss procedure.
Body Contouring or Body Shaping works through the Lymphatic System. Once the fat cells have been broken down the lymphatic system will eliminate the cells using liver and kidneys through sweat, stool, and urine over 72 hours after treatment.
(Also called Body Shaping, Body Sculpting, or Body Lyft)
Benefits/ Advantages?
-No need for general anesthesia, pain free
-Non surgical
-No downtime- clients can return to normal day to day activities immediately (With
traditional liposuction surgery, downtime is usually 6-8 weeks)
-No risk of infection, scarring or irregularities
Laser Lipo
What is it?
Laser Lipo utilizes infrared light energy and radio frequency energy. The light technique directly penetrates through deep layers of adipose tissue in the treatment area. Light therapy shrinks the fat cells in the treatment area. During the week after the procedure clients will secrete the destroyed fatty tissue through sweat, stool, urine, through the lymphatic system.
How soon will I see results?
Often results are visible within the first session. It is best to start with 6 treatments.
Maximum results require at least 6 to 12 treatment sessions per area depending on clients’ size and desired outcome. However, most clients will lose 1-3 inches after only 1 treatment. Changes happen over many weeks. Some clients begin to see changes at 2 weeks. These results are not guaranteed and will depend on the clients’ response to treatment and area being treated.
Will the effects be long lasting?
The fat cells will not return or regrow. This is a permanent effect. However, the length of time the body shaping will last is really in the client’s hands. How much they eat, and how much exercise they participate in will also affect their long-term body shape. If the client takes in more calories than you use, your weight and fat will increase and the permanent removal of fat cells from treatment will be hidden by weight gain.
Treatment time?
30-75 minutes
Any side effects?
Temporarily redness to the treatment area, skin will return to normal after a few hours.
Post treatment care:
Clients will need to avoid alcohol for 3 days after each treatment because the liver will be busy processing fat that has been broken down. Clients must drink plenty of water and keep themselves hydrating themselves before and after treatment. We recommend drinking half your body weight in ounces. Clients should also maintain a low calorie diet and have some form of physical activity. This will ensure that fat energy is released.
Contraindications?
People who:
-Have cardiac or vascular disease
-Are pregnant or nursing
-Are going through chemotherapy
-Have liver or kidney disease
-Have a pacemaker
-Have metal plates in the treatment area
-Are on their menstrual cycle
-Diabetes (consult a/ physician first)
-Circulatory problems
Lipo-Cavitation
What is it?
Lipo Cavitation (Ultrasonic Cavitation 40k) utilizes ultrasound waves to blast or “liquify'' fat cells. Cavitation uses ultrasonic waves to remove and destroy the adipose tissue cell membrane. The ultrasonic device is calibrated to liquify the target fat cells, so it will not cause damage to any of your other surrounding body tissue or organs. During the week after cavitation is performed, clients will secrete the destroyed fatty tissue through your sweat, stool, and urine through the lymphatic system. Treatments should be spaced out by at least 72 hours.

Radio Frequency Skin Tightening (RF)
What is it?
RF heats the tissue and stimulates subdermal collagen production in order to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and loose skin.
How does it work?
The technique induces tissue remodeling and production of new collagen and elastin. The process causes the cells to die which can be expelled through the lymphatic system leaving a more youthful texture, tighter skin and reproduction in stretch marks. RF help diminish excess fatty tissues to improve the appearance of cellulite.
Treatment time:
-Typically, 30 minutes
-Treatment should be spaced out at least 72 hours apart and requires a series of 8-12 sessions
VACUUM THERAPY
(Butt lift, Breast lift, and hip dip correction)
What is it?
Vacuum therapy stimulates the muscles, breaks down cellulite and fat deposits,
removes toxins and improves lymphatic drainage. Vacuum Therapy also helps restore the natural elasticity of the skin. This is a painless, safe and highly effective procedure.
How does Vacuum Therapy Work?
Vacuum Therapy is a treatment that is carried out with suction cups that are connected to a special machine that produces suction. Vacuum Therapy breaks down fat and allows you to reposition some of the fluids to create a more appealing look. Treatment time of 30-60 minutes. 1 session is equivalent to doing 1800 squats. Treatment is spaced out every 72 hours.
What are the benefits?
-Enlarges and firms buttocks
-Increases flexibility of the skin
-Decreases muscle spasms
-Contours skin reducing cellulite dimples and promotes collagen

Cellulite Treatments
There are several different cellulite reduction techniques:
1.) Laser Lipo with RF (radio frequency) Skin Tightening, Vacuum therapy and Wood Therapy. Treatment time 45 minutes
2.) Infrared Sauna Wrap. Treatment time 30-60 minutes
Infrared Sauna
What is an Infrared Sauna?
The infrared Sauna is a Thermal Far Infrared Ray Sauna that uses a body wrap concept to help detoxify the body of unwanted toxins, chemicals, and break up fatty tissue deposits.
What are the benefits?
The sauna will help you lose pounds, inches, and reduce the appearance of cellulite. It also aids in lowering blood pressure, reducing inflammation, easing muscle and joint pain, arthritis pain, and headaches. It helps clean the body of toxins and has also been proven to improve your mood.
What exactly are Far Infrared Rays (FIR)?
Is where the light rays emitted fall in the light spectrum. Different rays penetrate the body at the different lengths measured in microns. Radio waves have little to no penetration (low microns), then microwaves, infrared waves, up to x-rays and gamma rays (radiation) which have extreme penetration (high microns). Infrared and natural and produced by such things as the sun. In summary, far infrared light rays use the same radiant heat as the sun, without the harmful effects
How does the Infrared Sauna help aid in weight loss?
The sauna uses FIR Infrared heat to assist the body with weight loss. The use of Far Infrared Ray (FIR) thermal heat therapy is one of the most effective and scientific methods for weight loss and/ or body sculpting. The sauna and the FIR radiant heat warms the body and causes increased blood circulation and lowers blood pressure. Approximately 4000-6000 calories are burned per session. This is equivalent to running 10mph for 30 minutes
Will the Sauna help improve the appearance of Cellulite?
The sauna can help the appearance of cellulite. Cellulite is caused by fibrous
connective cords that tether the skin to the underlying muscle, with the fat lying
between. As the fat cells accumulate, they push up against the skin, while the long, tough cords are pulling down. This creates an uneven surface or dimpling. Cellulite is often found in the thighs, hips, buttocks, and abdomen and occurs in both men and women The only way to improve the look of cellulite is to minimize or eliminate the fatty tissue. The sauna uses radiant heat to reach these fat deposits and break them up. Sweating that occurs from the sauna helps remove this fatty waste from the body.
How often?
3 times per week, but should not be done back to back. This allows the body time to adjust and allows time for the dissolved fat to be excreted.
Reminder:
FIR infrared heat uses radiant heat to penetrate the skin at depths of 1 1⁄2 “ to 4”. This radiant heat helps warm the body inside and penetrates the skin helps reach fat deposits and break them up. When fat deposits are broken up, they are released and excreted from the body as toxins. Therefore, multiple treatments are necessary when the body has larger amounts of fat deposits
Contraindications?
Each person should check with his or her doctor before use. Individuals with skin
disorders, lupus, multiple sclerosis, hemophilia, fever, heat sensitivity, broken bones, implants, defibrillator, recent surgical procedures, pregnancy, or individuals on prescription medications should seek medical advice before use.
*Individuals should not use it if they are sick, not feeling well, or have a current
headache. DO NOT USE machine after eating
