Absolutely not. It is impossible to lose weight with any treatment of any kind, including cavitation, radiofrequency, lasers or anything else. Why is that? Because weight loss occurs when fatty acids are oxidised (“burned”) for energy in organs and muscles…

Does cavitation work on belly fat (visceral ...

Visceral fat is the fat responsible for the so-called “beer belly” look. It is also the most unhealthy fat you can have, as it increases the risk if diabetes and cardiovascular disease. So it is no wonder people ask whether they can reduce visceral fat with any method. However, as we can see healthy eating, weight loss and exercise (and lately anti-diabetic injections) are the only ways to reduce visceral fat…

The key to non-surgical breast lifting & firming is treating the décolletage area with radiofrequency

The key to non-surgical breast lifting & firming is treating the décolletage area with radiofrequency

Breast firmness and perkiness depends mainly on two things: breast skin and Cooper’s ligaments. Together these two connective tissues help to maintain the shape and structural integrity of your breasts. Skin supports and keeps breast lifted from the outside, while Cooper’s ligaments (also known as the suspensory ligaments of Cooper or the fibrocollagenous septa of the breast) keep breast lifted from the inside. Younger breasts also have a higher proportion of breast tissue, as opposed to fat, and that also helps add to breast firmness by maintaining ‘turgidity’…

Best oil for cellulite?

Best oil for cellulite?

Internally the best oils for cellulite are the omega-3s. The highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs) DHA and EPA, contained in fish oil or vegan DHA / vegan EPA oil, are known for their anti-inflammatory, slimming, circulation-boosting and overall anti-ageing action. So fish oil (or its vegan equivalents) is the bestt oil for cellulite. EPA and DHA are also contained in…

Can exercise tighten loose skin?

Can exercise tighten loose skin?

Exercise and everyday physical activity are essential for skin firmness, together with a healthy nutrition, rich in protein and polyphenols. Exercise and physical activity offers our fibroblasts (collagen- and elastin-producing cells) the necessary mechanical stimulation they need to keep producing collagen and elastin. Collagen gives skin firmness, while elastin offers elasticity, leading to firm, elastic, healthy, good looking skin.

What is ozempic / mounjaro / wegovy butt and how to fix it

What is ozempic / mounjaro / wegovy butt and how to fix it

Wegovy and Ozempic are injected medicines that both contain the active molecule semaglutide. Ozempic is prescribed for diabetes. Wegovy, on the other hand, contains a higher amount of semaglutide and therefore is additionally prescribed for weight loss. However, Ozempic is also used for weight loss, off label. The typical weight loss achieved with Wegovy/Ozempic is about 12% of body weight in non-diabetic people. As both drugs lead to fast weight loss, the buttocks do not have enough time to contract…

Hyaluronic acid before red light therapy

Hyaluronic acid before red light therapy

A lot of LED mask companies suggest that you use a (usually very expensive) serum before having a red/infrared light therapy session with their mask. However, skin has to be as clean as possible before LED treatment, especially with an LED mask, which by definition - and for safety purposes - is of low-power. This is because the skin surface has to display the smallest reflection possible, in order to…

Red light therapy: is a 10-minute treatment enough?

Red light therapy: is a 10-minute treatment enough?

Red and infrared LED light therapy (What does red light therapy do?) is highly effective and extremely safe for both cosmetic purposes and health conditions (back pain, musculoskeletal injuries, seasonal affective disorder, etc.). With a high-power LED unit, 10 minutes may suffice, though 20 minutes (and occasionally 30 minutes) would be preferable. A high-power device is one delivering approximately 60-200mW/cm². Anything exceeding 200mW/cm² for the body or 120mW/cm² for the face is unwise unless conducted in a professional environment with meticulously crafted protocols and for a briefer duration…

Infrared and red light therapy, often termed photobiomodulation and mostly applied via LEDs, is a non-invasive treatment that employs specific wavelengths of light to stimulate healing and address a variety of health and aesthetic conditions. This innovative therapy has surged in popularity in the last decade, celebrated for its efficacy, safety, and adaptability. In this article, we will explore the scientific foundations of red and infrared LED light therapy, clarifying its mechanisms, its multiple health benefits and the practical considerations for its application…

Acoustic wave therapy: cellulite is not a good application for it

Acoustic wave therapy: cellulite is not a good application for it

What is now euphemistically called acoustic wave therapy (AWT) goes by several other names: pressure wave therapy, extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT, the correct name and the original one coined by scientists), shockwave therapy (the shortened version of the correct name) and lipotripsy (the most ridiculous one I have seen). Before shockwaves were used for (questionable) cellulite removal, they were initially used to break down kidney and gallbladder stones, hence the medical name lithotripsy, meaning breaking down stones. From that, one crafty marketer coined the term “lipotripsy”, i.e. breaking down fat, although shockwaves do NOT physically break down fat…

What to eat before and after lipo cavitation treatment?

A lot of clients ask us: “What do I need to do/not do before or after my cellulite / skin tightening treatment”: “Can I eat after cavitation?”, “Can I eat after RF treatment?, “What should I eat on cellulite treatment day?”, “What is the best food for skin tightening” etc To which the answer is: Follow a strictly healthy diet on the day you receive a cellulite treatment, to achieve maximum results; ideally, do that right before and right after treatment, in order to make the most of that specific treatment; and exercise, if possible; intensely if possible and right before or right after your treatment, if possible, for maximum results…

Foods that reverse glycation: cranberry juice polyphenols, skin aging and cellulite

Foods that reverse glycation: cranberry juice polyphenols, skin aging and cellulite

Glycation is one of the main aspects and causes of cellulite and skin ageing. Glycation is caused when sugars bond with collagens (there are 28 types of collagen in the human body). The end results of sugar-collagen bonding are called advanced glycation-end products (AGEs).

Cellulite vs 'fat' vs lipedema: the facts

Cellulite vs 'fat' vs lipedema: the facts

Subcutaneous adipose tissue is a distinct fat tissue UNDER the skin. This is the fat that can be removed by liposuction. Cellulite is a totally different thing. It is not fat under the skin, it is fat INSIDE the skin and it is, of course, found ABOVE the subcutaneous adipose tissue. As it is part of the skin, it can obviously not be removed by liposuction…

Infrared and red light therapy after ultrasound cavitation

At the clinic we use ultrasound cavitation for cellulite reduction, focused with great precision on the hypodermis and dermis, leaving the epidermis alone, as it should be for this application. And we use LED red light therapy, mainly in the infrared wavelength, to maximise the results of our deep-acting, high-power ultrasound cavitation treatments. It is now firmly established that infrared and red light therapy boosts mitochondrial function and thus cellular energy, and we have observed that when applied following cavitation treatment, it significantly improves the outcomes of cavitation for cellulite reduction…

How to tone glutes without growing them and without gaining weight

How to tone glutes without growing them and without gaining weight

The gluteus maximus is a muscle which almost no man or woman can have enough of, simply because it makes the butt area look strong, beautifully curvy and sexy. However, some people would prefer to have just a toned butt but not too toned or big. How can one do that? It’s simple. Do lots of intensive resistance exercise two to three times a week, for several weeks. And when you reach the stage where your muscles don’t just tone but they start growing bigger, stop and switch to maintenance resistance training for that area, once every two weeks…

Can you use red light therapy with retinol?

Can you use red light therapy with retinol?

Depending on the type of retinol you are using, it may be quite harsh/sensitising on your skin, especially when combined with light. So applying retinol before LED treatment is not recommended. In fact, light skin absorption is maximum when it is cleansed with nothing applied on it. You can always apply actives after treatment…

Genuine, AI-free content

This website is human-written 100%. We do not use Chat-GPT or any other AI tool for our pages and articles to bombard you with low quality, copy-paste spam articles and inaccurate information.

Chat-GPT and similar tools copy the web to regurgitate meaningless lowest common denominator platitudes, i.e. generally accepted myths that often have nothing to do with reality. Plus plenty of inaccuracies, misinformation and a healthy added dose of literally made up stuff - what AI experts call “AI hallucinations”.

No AI tool has the depth of experience accumulated over tens of thousands of sessions with real human beings (in fact, AI tools have zero experience, obviously). Neither can an AI tool discriminate what is reality and what is made up BS on the web.

Of course, the aesthetics industry is already full of myths, inaccuracies, platitudes and hallucinations anyway, so the advent of AI does not make much of a difference. The beauty industry has always been full of BS (sorry, that’s the correct word), AI or no AI.

So 24+ years on, we still keep it real, regardless of AI.

Efficacy: As with any medical / aesthetic treatment or skin product, results vary from person to person depending on lifestyle, genetics, state of health (how each individual body responds to treatment), so specific results cannot be guaranteed.
