Cavitation

It is important to support your body's natural lymphatic system, which is responsible for processing and eliminating the disrupted fat cells. Following the aftercare advice below will help maximise your results. Immediately After Treatment drink at least 1.5 litres of water on the day of your treatment. Continue to drink 1–2 litres of water daily for the following 3 days to support lymphatic drainage and fat elimination. Avoid alcohol and caffeine for 48 hours, as both can slow the body's natural elimination process. Eat a balanced, healthy diet and avoid high-fat or high-sugar foods to help optimise your results. Wear loose, comfortable clothing to minimise pressure on the treated area, if the treated area feels warm or slightly red, 100% Aloe Vera Gel may be applied to soothe the skin. Complete 10–20 minutes of light exercise, such as a brisk walk, within 12 hours of your treatment to stimulate circulation and encourage lymphatic drainage. Continue to stay active throughout your treatment course where possible, avoid vigorous exercise for 24 hours if the treated area feels tender. Do not massage the treated area unless advised by your practitioner. For the first 24–48 hours: Avoid hot baths, saunas, steam rooms and other heat treatments, continue to avoid alcohol and caffeine, maintain good hydration by drinking plenty of water. Ultrasound Cavitation permanently disrupts treated fat cells; however, maintaining your results depends on a healthy lifestyle. To achieve the best possible outcome: Maintain a balanced, calorie-controlled diet, stay physically active with regular exercise, continue drinking plenty of water each day, avoid excessive alcohol intake during your course of treatments, attend your recommended treatment schedule as advised by your practitioner. It is normal to experience some temporary side effects following treatment, including: Mild redness of the skin, slight swelling or bruising, feeling of heaviness or fullness within the treated area, mild tenderness or discomfort, which may last for several days and occasionally up to 2–3 weeks, temporary numbness or tingling, a dull sensation as the treated nerves settle. Mild fatigue or a headache for up to 24 hours. Please contact Body Perfection Clinic if you experience: Severe or worsening pain, excessive swelling or bruising, blistering or skin changes, signs of infection, including increasing redness, heat or discharge, any unexpected or concerning reaction following your treatment. Your practitioner will be happy to advise you and arrange a review appointment if required.

To ensure your Ultrasound Cavitation treatment is as safe and effective as possible, please follow the advice below before your appointment. Drink plenty of water during the 24 hours before your treatment. Well-hydrated tissue responds more effectively, and good hydration supports your body's natural lymphatic system. Aim to drink 1.5–2 litres of water on the day before your appointment and continue to stay well hydrated on the day of treatment. Avoid alcohol and caffeine for at least 24 hours before your treatment, as both can dehydrate the body and reduce the efficiency of lymphatic drainage. Eat a light, healthy meal before your appointment and avoid heavy, fatty or high-sugar foods on the day of treatment. Do not apply body lotions, oils or creams to the treatment area on the day of your appointment. Avoid taking anti-inflammatory medication (such as ibuprofen) before treatment unless it has been prescribed by your doctor, as these medications may interfere with the body's natural inflammatory response involved in fat breakdown. Avoid sunbeds, saunas, steam rooms and excessive heat for 24 hours before your appointment. Wear loose, comfortable clothing to allow easy access to the treatment area and improve comfort following treatment. Please inform your practitioner of any medical conditions, implanted medical devices, recent illnesses, medication changes or pregnancy status before your treatment to ensure the procedure is suitable for you. During your consultation, your practitioner will assess your suitability for treatment, discuss your body contouring goals and create a personalised treatment plan to help you achieve the best possible results.

Treatment is not suitable for clients with: Pregnancy, breastfeeding, active cancer or those currently undergoing cancer treatment. Cardiac pacemakers or implanted electronic devices, heart conditions, liver disease, kidney disease, diabetes, epilepsy, blood clotting disorders, thrombosis or phlebitis, severe circulatory disorders. Autoimmune diseases, active infections or fever, metal implants in or near the treatment area, recent surgery within the treatment area. Hernias within the treatment area. Treatment should be postponed if: There is broken, inflamed or infected skin within the treatment area, there has been recent surgery and healing is incomplete, the client is feeling unwell or has a fever.

For your Cavitation appointment, we recommend wearing loose, comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the treatment area. Soft, breathable fabrics are ideal and will help you feel relaxed during and after your treatment. If you are having treatment on the abdomen, waist, thighs, arms or hips, wear clothing that can be easily adjusted or removed from the treatment area. Loose leggings, shorts, tracksuit bottoms or comfortable underwear are recommended. Please avoid tight clothing, shapewear or restrictive garments immediately before and after treatment, as this may cause discomfort and restrict circulation. We also recommend arriving well hydrated and wearing comfortable clothing suitable for light movement, as maintaining hydration and supporting lymphatic drainage are important parts of the treatment process. Your comfort and privacy are always our priority, and disposable towels and gowns are available when required.

Unfortunately not! Maintaining a healthy lifestyle helps support and prolong your results.

No. Fat and muscle are completely different tissues. Cavitation targets fat cells but does not build muscle.

Cavitation can help target stubborn areas of fat, but it is not a replacement for exercise or a healthy lifestyle.

Some clients notice changes quickly, but cavitation works gradually. A course of treatments is usually recommended for the best results.

The treated fat is naturally processed and eliminated by the body's lymphatic system over time. It doesn't suddenly disappear during the appointment.

Cavitation can help reduce stubborn fat deposits and improve body contours, but it is not a weight loss treatment. The best results are achieved alongside a healthy diet and lifestyle.

Cavitation treatments are usually performed once per week to allow the body time to process the released fat cells and maximise results. Consistency throughout the course helps achieve the most noticeable improvements.

Cavitation treatment can help reduce localised fat deposits and improve body contour. Many clients notice the treated area appearing slimmer and more sculpted over time. Results develop gradually as the body naturally processes the broken-down fat cells.

Cavitation treatment is generally painless. Most clients describe the sensation as a gentle warmth or mild vibration in the treated area. You may also hear a slight ringing sound in your ears during treatment due to the ultrasound frequency, which is normal and temporary.

Ultrasound Cavitation is generally well tolerated. You may notice mild redness, warmth or slight swelling in the treated area. This usually settles within a few hours. Some clients report a temporary ringing in the ears during or shortly after treatment. This can last up to 24 hours and is a normal response to ultrasonic frequencies. The treated area may feel tender or slightly sensitive, but discomfort is minimal. If you experience anything unusual or concerning, you should contact the clinic for advice.

The treated fat cells are permanently disrupted and eliminated by the body. However, maintaining your results depends on lifestyle balance. If new fat cells enlarge due to significant weight gain, changes in shape can occur. Hydration, movement and consistent self-care help maintain long-term results.

Ultrasound Cavitation is not a weight loss treatment. It is a body contouring treatment designed to reduce localised pockets of fat and improve body shape. It works best for clients who are close to their ideal weight but want help with specific stubborn areas.

Some clients notice visible improvement after one session. However, a course of treatments is typically recommended for optimal results. Most treatment plans include 4–8 sessions spaced one week apart, depending on the area being treated and your individual goals.

Yes. Ultrasound Cavitation is suitable for both men and women. It is ideal for targeting stubborn areas of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise, regardless of gender.
