Why do you have to drink water after cavitation / radiofrequency treatment?

Drink lots of water always - there is no specific reason to drink water after an RF, cavitation, massage or cellulite treatment

LipoTherapeia: Discover our advanced skin tightening and cellulite treatments in London, based on the strongest SAFE technologies in the world (deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency and deep-acting, high-power ultrasound cavitation followed by high-power LED phototherapy) and on more than two decades of experience. Treatment provided with our exclusive science-based protocols, for maximum results, naturally and safely.

“After your cellulite treatment, drink lots and lots of water to flush out the toxins”

This is a common question at the clinic, especially given that we do not mindlessly parrot this inane advice.

No, you don’t have to drink lots of water *specifically* after treatment.

You should actually drink lots of water (2-3 litres for women and 3-4 litres for men) during the day, every single day - not only when you have a cellulite treatment, a massage or any other treatment.

Drinking lots of water throughout your life helps ward off a host of whole body ageing and degenerative conditions - including aesthetic conditions like cellulite and skin ageing.

“Do I have to drink lots of water after my radiofrequency/cavitation cellulite treatment?”

The “Drink lots of water after your treatment”, however, is the most pointless thing heard at aesthetic clinics and beauty salons up and down the country

When you have nothing of value to say regarding treatment aftercare, don’t say anything - you don’t need to parrot vacuous advice.

There is no specific reason to drink water specifically after any treatment - and definitely not “to flush the toxins out of the system after treatment”. This is not how biology works.

“Drinking lots of water after an RF/cavitation treatment will flush out the fat out of your system”

And of course, you don’t “flush the fat out of your system after treatment” either, regardless of how much water you drink.

Fat released due to a cavitation/radiofrequency treatment ends up into the blood circulation to be oxidised (“burned”) in muscles and organs.

Unless you suffer from kidney disease, you don’t pee fat out of your system through your kidneys: this is yet another erroneous post-treatment claim.

Overall, drinking lots of water after treatment does nothing specific that drinking lots of water during the day doesn’t do

This is pointless advice given in the absence of any actually useful advice, such as:

These tips would actually increase treatment effectiveness and safety.

As for water, drink some water right now - and throughout the day!

Most Britons are dehydrated and dehydration does not just gradually lead to skin ageing and cellulite but also increases the risk of kidney stones, UTI infections and a lot of other health problems.
