Melt Fat Away With Lipo laser Slimming Machine PZ 809

Lipo Laser is a minimally invasive fat removal technology which utilizes a cold laser to liquefy and eliminate areas of unwanted fat and tighten the skin of the area being treated.

Lipo laser PZ 809 uses a low-level laser to penetrate into the subcutaneous fat below the surface of the skin. It creates a chemical signal in the fat cells, breaking down the stored triglycerides into free fatty acids and glycerol and releasing them though channels in the cell membranes. The fatty acids and glycerol are then transported around the body to the tissues that will use them during metabolism to create energy.

This process of fatty acid release is a natural response of the body when the body needs to used stored energy reserves, thus it does not cause any unnatural reaction in the body nor does it affect or damage any surrounding structures such as skin, blood vessels and peripheral nerves. It is the same to the process that takes place when you exercise. The water, glycerol, and free fatty acids leave the cell, and your fat cell shrinks.

Lipo laser PZ 809is equipped with Diode Laser (produces by MITSUBISHI) and 6-12 pads option enabling operators to reduce treatment time. Compared to surgical liposuction and other Ultrasound or laser techniques Lipo laser PZ 809 is much more affordable with similar results.

Lipo laser PZ 809 can target fat reduction in specific problem area. By positioning the laser pads on the target area such as chin, upper arms, abdomen or thighs fat can be broken down and removed specifically from that area. This is a big advantage over diet and exercise which can reduce overall body fat but not shape individual areas.

One of the great benefits of this type of treatment is that it is totally non-invasive. There are no incisions made, no downtime post-procedures, and absolutely no pain. After the treatment is over, the patient simply walks out of the office and goes about his or her daily routine as usual.

Results can be seen immediately after treatment. Results vary depending on area being treated, and from person to person. Typically a 2-4cm loss in abdomen circumference can be achieved with every treatment. A period of exercise post treatment will ensure the complete metabolism and thus elimination from the body of the freed fatty acids.

Blast Fat Away With HIFU Deep Fat Removal Machine-PZ 801

With the rising demand for body contouring, noninvasive devices for fat reduction have become increasingly popular and have grown dramatically over the past decade. Current nonsurgical body contouring devices include cryolipolysis, lipo laser, cavitation and high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU). High-intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) is a nonsurgical alternative to liposuction and a revolutionary technology breakthrough in non invasive body contouring technologies.

HIFU Deep Fat Removal Machine-PZ 801 uses ultrasound waves to reduce the fat cells underneath the skin without causing damage to the surrounding area or organs. It achieves targeted reduction of tissue volume by precisely focusing high intensity ultrasound energy to cause thermo coagulation of adipose tissue. It adopts a high frequency of 1 MHz, which makes ultrasound energy highly convergent, such that tissue damage is confined to a small focal volume.
The double low frequency modulation transducers deliver energy across the skin surface to a sharp focus in the subcutaneous fat. The energy can increase the temperature of local tissue and induce rapid cell necrosis. At the skin surface, the intensity of the ultrasound energy is low enough so that no damage occurs. The transducers can work for the treated area at the same time to make sure the excellent results with non-invasive, safe and painless.
Different from diagnostic and other therapeutic ultrasound equipment, HIFU focuses on fat cells only and cause significant damage to the fat cell membranes.The fat cells release their contents into the lymphatic system which is then delivered to both the liver and kidneys which process the fatty products.
The entire process is painless and requires no anesthesia or sedation. Patients can resume their daily routines immediately. Since HIFU is designed specifically to only affect the fat cell, all other tissues such as muscle, nerve, blood vessel and other organs, are not affected at all.
The results of about a one-inch reduction per session are not immediately visible, usually becoming apparent approximately two to three months after the procedure.

Non-surgical Face Lift With HIFU Face Lifting Machine PZ 9.0

HIFU is a relatively new, non-surgical alternative to facelift. HIFU Face Lifting Machine PZ 9.0 uses ultrasound technology to penetrate deeply into the skin which encourages collagen growth and tightening of the tissue on the face, neck, and brows, creating a visible lift.


HIFU Face Lifting Machine PZ 9.0 uses high intensity focused ultrasound energy to heat the underlying SMAS tissues and create tiny injuries here thus sparking off a healing response that encourages collagen formation and tightening. Skin tightening and increased collagen production will occur with HIUF treatment to the chin area. It treats facial tissue only at the focus point, so all the surrounding tissue is unharmed.

With high output power of 0.2 to 2.0J (0.1J/STEP), HIFU Face Lifting Machine PZ 9.0 can generate a temperature of 65℃ to 70℃ or above in the targeted skin layer during a short time. The energy can cause tissue contraction and collagen formation, therefore tightening and firming the skin.

HIFU Face Lifting Machine PZ 9.0 is equipped with 4 kinds of HIFU transducers for different skin layers: DS-4.5D (Standard configuration), DS-4.5S (Optional), DS-3.0 (Standard configuration) and DS-1.5 (Optional). Depending on the patients needs HIFU can target up to three layers of skin, 1.5 mm,3mm, and 4.5 mm in depth.

DS-4.5D (Standard configuration) can transfer 4MHz high intensity focused ultrasonic to the skin and subcutaneous tissue, which can penetrate the dermis depth of 4.5mm, directly get access to the SMAS layer subcutaneous tissue, form “coagulation” area, and treat thick skin, such as cheeks.

DS-4.5S (Optional) can transfer 7MHz high intensity focused ultrasonic to the skin and subcutaneous tissue, which penetrate the dermis depth of 4.5mm, directly get access to the SMAS layer of subcutaneous tissue, and treat thin skin, such as forehead, chin and neck.

DS-3.0 (Standard configuration) can transfer 8MHz high intensity focused ultrasonic to the dermis skin tissue, which can penetrate the dermis depth of 3.0mm, specifically activate collagen of the dermis skin, effectively consolidate the outline lifting effect, improve coarse pores and reduce wrinkles.

DS-1.5 (Optional) can transfer 10 MHz high intensity focused ultrasonic to the tissue of the epidermis, which can penetrate the depth of 1.5mm, and specifically activate the thin epidermis tissue.

HIFU Face Lifting Machine PZ 9.0 can produce up to 5000 to 10000 lines which is as three times as the similar instrument.

HIFU face lifting treatment can be applied to the face as well as the whole body. It is best used for the brow, forehead, mid and lower face, jawline, jowls, under chin and neck regions. And also, it works equally well for people of all skin colors, compared to lasers and the intense pulse lights.

The treatment can take between thirty minutes to three hours depending on the extent of areas treated. It literally achieves the results of a facelift or a body lifts without any invasive surgery or injections, moreover, an added bonus of this procedure is that there is no downtime.

Painless Hair Removal With IPL SHR Hair Removal Machine PZ106

Super Hair Removal(SHR) is latest in pain free permanent hair reduction, safer, faster and pain free. SHR is the only clinically proven method of laser and AFT hair removal that causes virtually no pain.

IPL SHR Hair Removal Machine PZ106 works by gradually heating the dermis to a temperature that effectively damages the hair follicle and prevents regrowth, while not injuring surrounding tissue. SHR combines high average power, low fluency, and a high repetition rate; gradually increasing the temperature of the hair follicle by stacking the laser pulses.

IPL SHR Hair Removal Machine PZ106 is effective based on its selective absorbability, resulting in the impedance differences between the target skin tissue and normal skin tissue. When the intense pulsed light penetrates the epidermis, the energy of light will be greatly absorbed by the pigments in epidermis.

IPL SHR Hair Removal Machine PZ106 has a powerful diode treatment head with up to 120 J/cm2 which allows treatment of nearly any type of hair. No other laser can compare. The SHR modules adopts a unique pulsing (10-1,350 ms) which provides a safe and effective way for treating patients with any skin type, including tanned and dark skin. With SHR short pulse duration, the skin is not heated to the point of burning, eliminating the risk of patient injury and potential lawsuits.

SHR requires no office consumables, anesthesia or numbing gels, maximizing your investment. The sweeping In-Motion technique of moving the hand piece repeatedly over the treatment area virtually eliminates pain, and removes the need for gels or anesthetics.

Without exposing the hair root to a single high energy pulse, SHR doesn’t cause trauma to skin with high melanin count, making it the safest laser hair removal option for dark skinned individuals.

SHR can be used anytime during the year as it does not heat up the melanin in the same way as other lasers and sun exposure is less traumatic to the skin following SHR treatment.Patients show up for a quick treatment, and are back out the door within a few minutes.

Are The Results of Cryolipolysis Treatment Permanent?

Cryolipolysis is a non-invasive, no downtime treatment to reduce fat. If you maintain your weight within a reasonable range, you can expect permanent results to the treated area. 
cryolipolysis destroys fat cells by selectively freezing the lipids that are found in fat cells. This results in gradual death of those fat cells. The procedure is performed by first selecting the appropriate head based on the anatomic location being treated. Suction is then applied and the skin and fat fold is brought into the suction head. It is then compressed between two plates giving it a feeling of being pinched. After the skin and fat layer is secured between the two plates, the temperature is dropped sufficiently to freeze the fat. The device is left in place, treating the patient for one hour. 
Over the next two months, these fat cells are excreted from the body through the lymphatic and circulatory systems. Once the fat cells are killed they are gone. The cryolipolysis fat freeze fat reduction is permanent in a sense that your fat cells are permanently removed from your body. You do not typically grow additional fat cells unless you put on an immense amount of weight which provides the stimulus for cells to divide. 
Cryolipolysis doesn't give an immediate result, and 3-6 months are needed before the final result is visible. The procedure usually results in a fat reduction of anywhere between 20-25% per treatment.
Multiple areas can be treated by cryolipolysis fat freeze treatments, resulting in gradual reduction of a larger area. The amount of treatments needed depends on the desired amount of fat removal. It can take a few months to see final results from one treatment as the body needs time to adequately dispose of the frozen fat cells. 
Common areas treated are the abdomen, the flanks or love handles, and the upper back fat along the bra line. If there is sufficient tissue to be treated in the arm area, it can be used for excess fat in the underarm area. Usually, it is not utilized in the lateral thigh fat because is it not possible to pinch this fat and subsequently treat it. 
The results of the cryolysis fat removal is permanent. You can still gain weight and lose the benefit of the treatment, just like after liposuction, if you over-eat and gain weight.

Does Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing Treatment Work?

Cryolipolysis represents a significant advance in the treatment of problem fat collections. It has been a very effective alternative to liposuction for many patients. Cryolipolysis will never replace liposuction or a tummy tuck if that is truly what you need, but it is a safe and effective means of improving your body contour.
cryolipolysis machine uses controlled cooling to bring the targeted fat cells to just above freezing without harming the overlying skin. The device uses a vacuum handpiece to suction in your fatty area and cool it between two panels for an hour. It is meant for spot reduction on areas that are resistant to diet and exercise and our most popular areas to treat are upper and lower abdomen, love handles, arms and inner thighs. The key to getting a good result is having the right type of fat that suctions into the handpiece easily, this allows the cooling panels to do their job in a uniform way and produce a predictable amount of fat loss. 
The result is not immediate, with the final result being present after 3-6 months. Within a few weeks your body's natural healing process then removes the damaged fat cells, resulting in safe, gradual fat reduction. On average, eachcryolipolysis fat freeze procedure results in a 20% reduction of fat in the treated area, and patients can start to enjoy a toned, slimmer look three weeks following treatment, with the most dramatic results occurring over a period of two to three months.
When single anatomic areas are treated, the cryolipolysis procedure typically lasts about an hour. Depending on the magnitude of the problem, multiple treatments may be necessary. Cryolipolysis removes 20-25% of the fat in the treated area with each treatment. If further improvement is desired, the area can be re-treated with additional fat removal. In addition to being non-invasive, it truly has no recovery time, and normal activities can be resumed almost immediately.
Commonly treated areas include the abdomen, flanks, hips, bra strap area, inner thighs, outer thighs, saddle bags and banana rolls. Each area takes an hour to treat, and there is minimal discomfort during the treatment.
Unfortunately, the cryolysis fat removal procedure isn’t for everyone. Patients with large amounts of fat or loose skin may need more aggressive procedures. In this group, liposuction or skin resections may be more appropriate. It’s important to remember, that the best results occur when there’s appropriate patient selection and expectations are realistic. If your fat is dense and non pliable you will not get a good suction of fat into the handpiece and your result will be less than the 20-25%.
As we are born with a fixed amount of fat cells in the body, Cryolipolysis results are permanent because fat cells are broken down permanently during the process. Weight gain occurs with hypertrophy of the existing fat cells, not growth of new fat cells. It is for this reason that if you maintain your weight after Cryolipolysis, your results will be permanent.

Who Is The Best Candidate For Cryolipolysis?

Cryolipolysis is a non-invasive and safe technique for fat reduction and body contouring. While the results are not as dramatic as the results following liposuction and surgery, the absence of any downtime and the safety of the procedure make it a very popular choice for fat reduction and body contouring.
cryolipolysis is effective in reducing fat in the treated area by about 25%. It is not a weight loss technique but rather a body contouring procedure. It is best for stubborn areas of localized fat such as the "love handles" and the lower abdomen. Cryolipolysis will not work well with loose hanging tissues or thick rolls of fat.
cryolipolysis equipment can help reduce fat on the lower abdomen, upper abdomen, love handles, bra fat, male chest and some arms. Because it is non-surgical, there is no down-time after the treatment, and you can get back to your regular routine immediately. Patients typically lose 15-25% of the fat in the treated area, and can have repeat treatments in the same area for more reduction. This is a perfect treatment for patients with small areas of fat that they cant get rid of with diet and exercise alone. 
cryolipolysis machine works best for those who are basically in good shape but have small isolated areas of fat that they would like to treat. Ideal candidates for the procedure have discrete and localized fat bulges on the abdomen, love handles, inner thighs, and back. Cryolipolysis is especially helpful when the fat bulge cannot be reduced by diet and exercise. Cryolipolysis treatments result in noticeable and natural looking fat reduction in the treated areas.
Other liposuction techniques that offer minimal downtime but remove more of the fat may prove better for some patients. For others, that absolutely do not want surgery, do not mind the cost, and perhaps, repeated treatments to achieve their goals may prefer Cryolipolysis fat freezing machine.
Multiple treatments are usually needed for the best results. If you are looking for generalized fat reduction, or larger, more extensive areas that you want reduced, Cryolipolysis is probably not the best treatment for you.

Does Cryolipolysis Really Work for Fat Reduction?

Cryolipolysis is a non-invasive procedure. Cryolipolysis is a procedure that uses a targeted cooling process that kills the fat cells underneath the skin, freezing them to the point of elimination. It is a proven, effective treatment for fat reduction. 
cryolipolysis uses precisely controlled cooling to destroy fat cells, thereby eliminating unwanted love handles, bra rolls, and stomach fat. Cryolipolysis works by applying the head of the Cryolipolysis device to the targeted area. The extra skin and fat are then drawn into the head and between two cooling plates. This is accomplished by the application of suction. Once the fat and skin are between the two plates, the plates are compressed and then the temperature is dropped. The treatment time is normally one hour per area. At the end of that time, the device is removed and the area treated is massaged so that it can return back to its original contour. 
The freezing of cryolipolysis body slimming machine starts the death cycle for the fat treated. The fat that is going to be eliminated slowly dies and the byproducts are safely absorbed and excreted by the body. Many people see an improvement within the first two to three weeks. Patients are told that the final outcome may take up to four months. It’s not uncommon for a patient to require a second application to achieve their goals.
The main advantages to cryolipolysis machine are the facts that it is not invasive and there is no downtime. The Cryolipolysis typically will not have the results of liposuction. With liposuction, the fat in question is removed and it’s immediately apparent how much fat has been eliminated. With Cryolipolysis, the patient must wait up to four months to appreciate the final result.
The results of cryolysis fat removal are more moderate, with a 20-25% reduction in fat. Results can be seen after a single session, but some patients see an improvement but might desire an additional treatment for optimal results. A repeat treatment in that area can give as much as a 40% fat reduction.
Patient selection and appropriate expectations are essential in receiving the best results. Cryolipolysis is the superior technique for larger areas needing fat reduction. cryolipolysis equipment is wonderful for removing stubborn areas of fat for people at or near a healthy weight. The ideal candidate is close to their ideal weight (not obese) and just have a stubborn bulge or two of fat. For people interest in losing a significant amount of weight, Cryolipolysis is not the ideal procedure. 
Cryolipolysis is designed to removal fatty areas that does not respond to diet and exercise. It is not a weight loss procedure.

Non Surgical Permanent Fat Reduction With Cryolipolysis

Cryolipolysis is a non-surgical device for permanent fat reduction. It can treat 20-25% of the fat for reduction. Cryolipolysis involves a non-surgical, non-invasive method of destroying fat cells while not damaging the skin and other tissues. 
This cryolipolysis machine works by damaging the fat cells walls in the treatment area which are later removed through the body's own metabolic process. An applicator is placed on the skin and the applicator cools the skin down to cause a permanent loss of fat cells in that given area. There is much less control over this process and each treatment can only reduce the amount of fat 20-25%, at best. The ice that forms in the fat cells destroys the cells and the body then gradually evacuates the destroyed fat cell contents. 
cryolipolysis is a procedure in which you have a portion of the area you want treated pinched and frozen for about 45 minutes at a time. It needs to be done in multiple rather expensive sessions and is an option for those who are adamant about not having surgery but who are willing to have 4-5 sessions and a slightly less predictable and customized result.
cryolipolysis fat freeze treatments is best for patients with small areas of localized fat, and those who are within 10 to 20 pounds of their ideal body weight. One treatment of Cryolipolysis will remove about 25% of fat in the treatment area and can be repeated 3-4 months later if desired. 
Cryolipolysis is very effective at reducing focal areas of fatty deposits. It is completely non-invasive. There are no needles, incisions, or injections associated with the cryolysis fat removal. There are no limitations after your Cryolipolysis sessions and it is not necessary to wear post treatment compression garmets. The final results are typically seen 6 to 10 weeks after each treatment. You can also receive additional Cryolipolysis treatments for an additive effect on the previously treated areas. The most common areas treated with Cryolipolysis are the abdomen, hips, flanks/love handles, back and bra-line.
Cryolipolysis has been an excellent alternative with high level of patient satisfaction. Liposuction is essentially sculpture of the body, where Cryolipolysis is a treatment that can reduce an area of fat excess, although the effect varies from patient to patient.

Non-Invasive Body Contouring Technologies

The body contouring technology can be divided into non-invasive and invasive. You can also sub-divide invasive and non-invasive into focal body contouring reductions and generalized slimming. 
Liposuction is still the gold standard in focal and sequential multi-focal invasive body contouring. It uses small suction cannulas, with or without tumescent anesthesia, with or without lasers, ultrasound, propulsive jet sprays or radiofrequency energy to actively aspirate remove fat from localized areas of fatty accumulation. 
Non-invasive body contouring technologies use some type of energy or stimulus to injure, destroy or alter the architecture of the fat cells without inserting any device under the skin, without performing any surgery. These non surgical techniques include Cryolipolysis, Ultrasound Cavitation, hifu and Lipo Laser. The common non-invasive energy forms used to create nonsurgical body contouring include radiofrequency currents, high frequency focused ultrasound, infrared energy coupled suction and massage and diode laser energy. These non invasive energies and technologies for the most part, like liposuction, are used to reduce focal areas of enlarged fat cells such as tummy, hips and thighs. 
cryolipolysis is freezing the fat cells with a giant suction cup sucks the skin along with the underlying fat. The "sucked in" area is then chilled for an hour. The fat cells don't pop, they undergo a slow death and are processed like any cell that dies in the body. The elimination of the damaged cells takes a few months. There is no pain or anesthesia, no incision and usually no bruising. The recovery is a bit of soreness, possibly some short term numbness.
cryolipolysis body slimming machine is great for treating larger fat deposits. If you can grab a handful of fat, you generally will benefit much more from Cryolipolysis. If you can only pinch an inch, and the skin is tight and can't be sucked into the Cryolipolysis applicator, you might be better off doing Lipo Laser. Cryolipolysis can be done on the abdomen, love handles, and back. 
lipo laser is a low level laser which is being promoted and used for body contouring. It works by causing a tiny puncture to the fat cell, which spews out its contents, which are then eliminated by normal body metabolism. Lipo Laser is designed to reduce the circumference of the waist, hips and thighs. It is not intended for weight loss. Lipo Laser is normally done on the abdomen and love handles.
For spot reduction in your saddlebags, liposuction is expected to produce a more dramatic change. However, Lipo Laser is completely non-invasive so doesn't have risks associated with surgery. And best of all there is no recovery or downtime so you can resume all your normal activities immediately after each treatment.

Freeze Fat Away With Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing Machine PZ 806

Cryolipolysis is a non invasive technology for permanent fat reduction by freezing localized areas of fat to the point of elimination. Cryolipolysis has been an excellent non invasive alternative to liposuction for patients with stubborn areas of localized fat which is resist resistant to diet and exercise.

Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing Machine PZ 806 works by applying a vacuum handpiece to your fatty area and cooling the extra skin and fat between two cooling plates for an hour. At the end of that time, the device is removed and the area treated is massaged so that it can return back to its original contour. The freezing starts the death cycle for the fat treated without affecting the skin or muscles. The fat that is going to be eliminated slowly dies and the byproducts are safely absorbed and excreted by the body. The dead cells are then removed naturally by the body through the liver.

Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing Machine PZ 806 is equipped with 2 independent Working systems and outstanding Thermo-Cool system which make it more effective with less stoppage and provide a more comfortable experience. The stable temperature control system makes sure the temperature is stable to prevent frostbite. There are 3 or 4 headpieces in 160mm and 220mm for option.

Cryolipolysis Fat Freezing Machine PZ 806 is designed for spot reduction on stubborn areas of localized fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. It can help reduce fat on the lower abdomen, upper abdomen, love handles, bra fat, male chest and some arms.

There is no pain or anesthesia, no incision and usually no bruising. The recovery is a bit of soreness, possibly some short term numbness. Because it is non-surgical, there is no down-time after the treatment, and you can get back to your regular routine immediately.

Cryolipolysis is effective in reducing fat in the treated area by about 25%. Many people see an improvement within the first two to three weeks. It can give the most dramatic results when multiple areas are treated. Most people require one or two treatments to achieve maximal results.

However, Cryolipolysis is not a weight loss technique but rather a body contouring procedure. A healthy diet and exercise is still important to maintain the results.

What is the Lipo Laser Treatment?

lipolaser treatments are a series of painless, non-surgical treatments by a laser overlying the body areas you want reduced. It is an alternative to liposuction, which reduces inches with no pain, no surgery and no downtime. 
lipo laser is a low level laser therapy which is currently being used as an the treatment for fat removal. It proposes to melt fat across the skin without actually doing any liposuction on the patient. The treatments do not cause any discomfort. The results can vary depending on the individual. 
The laser energy is tuned down to provide photonic stimulation only and is not a heat generating laser. Think of the different effects of photons stimulating plant cells to produce energy versus the heat of the Sun focused through a magnifying glass. The lipolaser results are not a result of thermal damage. The fat cells do not "melt", but respond by releasing excess lipids through a pore in the cell membrane. Because the cells are not damaged as the lipids are released, there is no apparent inflammatory reaction, and results are seen within several weeks.
Liposuction gives by far a greater improvement and is easy to go through and has a quick recovery time but may not fit into your schedule or budget right now. Lipo Laser is an alternative that many are finding helpful and worthwhile. 
Lipo Laser treatments are supposed to work on everyone regardless of weight including obese people. Lipo Laser PZ809 is an alternative to liposuction for those who want to completely avoid an invasive procedure and risk. It's the perfect way to lose stubborn body fat from: neck, love handles, arms, hips, back/bra‐line, thighs, tummy/waistline and knees. Patients are losing between 3.6 to 5.5 inches and many are seeing even greater results when combined with a sensible diet and exercise program.
This may be significant for many patients and since there is no pain nor any down time, many patients are now enjoying the results. Some even are going through a 2nd series to get further improvements and some have noticed an improvement in their cellulite which is an added benefit since not much works on cellulite usually.

How Is The Effectiveness of IPL Hair Removal?

With the advancement in technology in laser hair removal over the last several years, it is not a surprise that there is confusion about what works best to get the optimum results you are looking for as a patient. 
ipl and lasers can both be used for hair removal. Both treatments produce energy in order to interrupt the growth cycle of the hair follicles to reduce hair growth without damaging the surrounding tissue. 
IPL intense pulsed light is highly concentrated pulses of light of many different colors (wavelengths). It is effective against hair because some of the wavelengths of light delivered are absorbed by the tissue and result in follicular heating and destruction.
Laser is light of only one wavelength or color. It is collimated which means all the rays of light are parallel and not scattered as with IPL. If the wavelength of the laser light beam matches what the target tissue (the hair follicle) will absorb, then you are using all your available light energy for the purpose desired and so it is more efficient. there are many different wavelengths of light used for lazer hair removal.
IPL is safer for darker skin types but it takes longer to achieve permanent results. Diode lasers are usually very effective and work best on light skin and dark hair. They also require less treatments.
intense pulsed light hair removal is least effective and has the most side effects for darker skin types because it does not have the correct wavelength range (1064 nm) to effectively treat this skin. 
The most effective types of lasers for permanent hair removal are Diode and Alexandrite (light skinned patients) and Long Pulsed Nd:Yg (dark skinned patients). 
Nd-Yag 1064, Alexandrite 755 and Diode 800 but there are many more types for different purposes. Some lasers are best for darker skinned patients to reduce the risk of pigmentation problems. Some lasers are faster for hair removal than others. 
There are laser hair removal devices safe and effective for all skin colors. The Alexandrite laser is safest and most effective for light to medium toned skin and the Long pulsed nd yag is most effective and safest for darker skin types. IPL has never been shown to be as effective as these lasers for hair removal and can potentially cause significant damage to the skin.

HIFU: An Good Alternative To Facelift

HIFU can be a good alternative for patients who are looking for non-surgical alternatives to facelift. HIFU is a non-invasive treatment, which requires very little to no recovery time. 
hifu technology uses ultrasound energy which penetrates very deeply and uniformly into the skin and underlying connective tissue resulting in a nonsurgical lifting and tightening of the skin. This high intensity Ultrasound creates small thermal coagulation points which sets off a response in which collagen is remodeled and new collagen is grown. This helps with the contour and tightness of the areas treated. 
hifu therapy affect the collagen generation at a fairly deep level so the collagen renewal you get from the procedure has some significant staying power. But you won't stop aging and you can't prevent collagen breakdown. This means eventually you will require another treatment to provide another collagen-inducing event.
The biggest factor in how long your hifu lifting will last is how robustly your body responds to collagen stimulation. Aging never stops. There is a continuous cycle of collagen breakdown and generation. As we age that cycle leans heavier on the breakdown events instead of the generation.
The duration of the effect that hifu procedure has on tightening and lifting is expected to be more than one year based on new collagen growth, not just tightening the connective tissue.The results can last anywhere from 1-3 years before needing to re-treat in order to maintain results. The longevity of the results depends on your body’s ability to produce, maintain and breakdown collagen.
hifu facial treatment can be repeated in 6 to 12 months. Collagen typically takes this long to develop so waiting this long between treatments will allow you to better assess how much improvement you got in order to determine if repeating HIFU is necessary and or/worth the investment. 
There is no downtime with HIFU and no "recovery time" unless you took prescription medications to help with the pain management during the procedure. In that case, you would have limitations on your activities such as driving until the medication had worn off.

How To Maintain The Result Of HIFU Lifting Treatment

HIFU is a non-surgical procedure which delivers focused ultrasound to a specific depth in the skin and deeper connective tissue. 
hifu focuses ultrasound energy like a magnifying glass focuses the sun’s energy. HIFU treats facial tissue only at the focus point, all the surrounding tissue is unharmed. The treated tissue stimulates the body to produce new collagen over 90 days. It is this new collagen formation that smooths, tightens and lifts the face.
While hifu facialtreatment is an excellent treatment for firming, lifting and tightening the face, it does not affect the skin surface. Aging changes to the skin such as pigment and vascular changes are best treated with other types of treatment. In addition, the best candidates for HIFU are those that have mild to moderate facial laxity. HIFU does not replace surgical management for those who have significant skin laxity or excessive fat underneath the skin, nor does HIFU eliminate the need for Botox? and fillers.
The sensation of HIFU is a momentary prickling and heating. Discomfort is gone immediately after treatment. Pain medication is not needed after the treatment.
The best candidates for hifu therapy are those that have mild to moderate facial laxity. Because HIFU generates a natural appearing improvement over 3 months, patients that want a discrete improvement without external signs of treatment should consider the procedure. It is also best suited for patients that desire aesthetic improvement but do not have the luxury of the several weeks of downtime associated with other cosmetic procedures. 
hifu procedure takes several months to see the end result. If you have a good collagen framework, then you may find you get the expected result of a gentle lift all around the treated areas. Once the skin and tissue tightening effects have plateaued, you will still face realities that we continue to age. 
Factors that can accelerate the aging process include excessive sun exposure and smoking. Be sure to maintain healthy skin care habits (sun screen, skin care, wearing hats, avoiding sun during high UV index, etc.). You may maintain the results for more than year.

Can HIFU Lifting Treatment Really Get Rid of Under-chin Sag?

Under-chin sag can be from redundant skin and loose muscle or from sub-mental fat. hifu can not provide the same excellent result as a surgical neck lift for sagging skin. However, compared to other non-invasive devices, it can lift and tighten skin.If there is mild laxity and not much fat under the chin, HIFU may likely be your answer. 
hifu technology utilizes focused ultrasound energy to heat the underlying SMAS tissues and create tiny injuries here thus sparking off a healing response that encourages collagen formation and tightening. Skin tightening and increased collagen production will occur with HIUF treatment to the chin area. The treatment can take between one to three hours depending on the extent of areas treated.
hifu therapy is best used for the brow, forehead, mid and lower face, jawline, jowls, under chin and neck regions. It is the best nonsurgical alternative to a facelift. It is important to know, however, that it does not give the results of a facelift or necklift but then again you're not having to go through surgery. It truly is noninvasive with no downtime or recovery time. 
The visible results depends much on the amount of loose skin and fat present under the chin. Most patients have results after one treatment but can have even better results if they go through a second treatment. 
hifu lifting treatment can't do what a surgical procedure can do. If there is a collection of fat under the chin which many normal weight people can have, then you may be a candidate for a combination procedure of liposuction and HIFU to the area under your chin. In the case of severe excess skin, a neck lift is an option to consider.
It is important to have a personal consultation with your physician. It is very important to understand and have clear expectations about what HIFU can do to help your particular issue.

Non invasive Body Contouring With Lipo Laser PZ809

The Lipo Laser PZ809 is a new technology for non invasive fat removal and body contouring. Lipo Laser treatment offers an alternative to a shapelier figure without having to endure the fear, and sometimes painful process of a surgical procedure.
Lipo Laser PZ809 is specially designed for non-invasive body contouring. It emits low levels laser energy and targets subcutaneous fat with its patented technology. The laser is applied externally and has proven to emulsify adipose tissue at specific locations. This does not affect the neighboring structures such as skin, blood vessels, and peripheral nerves. 
During best laser lipo machine treatment, water glycerol & free fatty acids are released into the interstitial space between the cells and absorbed by the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is your body’s natural drainage system. When combined with oxygen, the free fatty acids also produce energy. Glycerol is also converted by the liver into glucose, another energy source.
To help your body retain the immediate fat loss from treatment, it is important to stimulate the lymphatic system through mild activity so that excess fat can be passed through the body during its normal course of detoxification. Patients can encourage lymph drainage through whole body vibration training for 10 minutes immediately following each laser lipo slimming treatment. It is recommended to drink plenty of water after treatment to further assist the body’s natural cleansing process. 
As with any procedure, after completion of treatment results will vary from patients to patients. The most immediately noticeable results are often shown on individuals who exercise (or have exercised) regularly, are not obese and/or who have localized fat deposits that they cannot get rid of with diet or exercise.
beat lipo laser machine PZ809 is non-invasive with no harmful side effects & unlike other procedures allows the patient to continue their daily activities without interruptions from surgery, pain, or wounds.

Deep SMAS Skin Tightening With HIFU Lifting Treatment

As we age, the SMAS loosens and the soft tissue and muscles it encases droop, causing the telltale signs of aging on the face and neck. By deeply heating this SMAS layer, HIFU treatment encourages collagen growth and tightening of the tissue on the face, neck, and brows, creating a visible lift.
hifu is a relatively new, innovative procedure that uses ultrasound technology to penetrate deeply into the skin, affecting a connective tissue layer called the SMAS. It utilizes ultra focused ultrasound energy waves to tighten the SMAS layer of the skin at both the 3mm and 4mm depth. HIFU helps the body produce more collagen and the deep focused ultrasound produces tightening of the deep supportive connective tissue of the face.
hifu therapy is considered a natural skin tightening alternative because it works with your body’s natural healing process. The HIFU machine infuses “seeds” of thermal coagulated heat into multiple layers of the skin causing micro-wounds. As your skin heals, new collagen is formed which then tightens the skin. 
Generally you can expect anywhere from a 20% to 30% improvement after one hifu facial treatment. Many patients opt for continuous treatments to maintain their results. The treatment time for an HIFU treatment can range from 30 minutes to 90 minutes depending on the area being treated. There is no down-time, although you will experience swelling, possible bruising and tenderness, you can return to your daily routine immediately after the treatment.
Although many patients see immediate lifting results, the ultimate results do not happen overnight, but gradually over time. It can take up to 2-3 months for optimal rejuvenation. 
An important aspect of this hifu procedure is having realistic expectations about the results. It is not ever going to produce the amount of lifting that a surgical facelift will accomplish. However, with little to no downtime, a one hour procedure can produce a global facial rejuvenation with tightening.
HIFU is ideal for patients between 35 to 60. Older patients and those with excessively loose skin will benefit from either laser therapy or surgical face lifting.

The Pros and Cons of HIFU and Thermage for Skin Tightening

hifu and Thermage both work to non-invasively stimulate collagen to create lifting and tightening of the skin. HIFU uses ultrasound technology, whereas Thermage uses radiofrequency. Thermage uses radiofrequency to heat up the deep skin.
hifu therapy is a safe and effective non-invasive ultrasound treatment that can lift and tighten facial skin and muscle without downtime. HIFU uses focused ultrasound to treat the skin by increasing collagen in the skin and creating lifting, firming and tightening effects. It can successfully treat the lines along the upper lip that are most difficult to treat with injectables.
hifu machine reliably places energy in the dermis and SMAS layer. The energy is always above the critical temperature to cause tissue contraction and collagen formation. Depending on the patients needs HIFU can target up to three layers of skin, 1.5 mm,3mm, and 4.5 mm in depth. Thermage only targets tightening. 
Thermage is a radio frequency technology device that heats the skin and subcutaneous tissue superficially. Thermage is very unreliable in it’s placement of energy through the skin and therefore it’s results are very unreliable. 
Although Thermage has been improved over the years, it's main problems have been a very high patient dissatisfaction rate and a very painful patient experience. HIFU can cause discomfort as well, but if patients are enduring pain, they appreciate a result that they can notice. Patients can be given oral medications or local anesthetic nerve block injections if needed, but the majority of HIFU patients are able to tolerate a properly performed treatment with just a cold air blowing on their skin.

How Many HIFU Treatments is Needed to Achieve the Best Results?

The number of HIFU treatments required for the best results varies with each patient. Age and the conditions of the skin play a major.
hifu technology uses highly focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen regeneration in the layers under the skin. Because HIFU uses highly focused ultrasound to stimulate collagen under the skin to remodel, it takes a few months to see the full effect. 
The results of hifu therapy depends on the condition of the persons skin, age, medical condition and response of their own body's fibrillates to the stimulus. In general this means the younger the patient, the better the results, and menopause is an important issue since the lower estrogen levels contribute to thinning of the skin. Thin skin means less collagen as a "target" so less response. 
Generally, single treatment is enough to achieve good result with hifu. Most patients with early skin laxity only require one treatment to achieve noticeable results. However, some may benefit from more than one treatment depending on how much laxity they have and their body’s own biological response to the ultrasound and collagen-building process.
Most people have one hifu lifting treatment if their condition is mild to moderate and may have another treatment in a year to two. If some one is in the moderate to sever condition of sagging lose skin another treatment can be performed 6 months after the first treatment! 
It is safe to repeat it at yearly intervals but more frequent than that isn't going to add additional benefit. As collagen typically takes 6 to 12 months to develop, you need to wait this long between treatments to determine if repeating HIFU is necessary.

Is HIFU Effective For Lifting Brows?

HIFU is a very effective treatment for lifting the brows. Its effectiveness will not be as dramatic as a surgical brow lift, but it is a great non-surgical option. 
hifu is a focused deeply penetrating ultrasound energy that without surgery can help provide a lift. It is targeted for lifting skin on the neck, under the chin, on the brow etc. Its effectiveness would not be expected to provide the same amount of a lift as a surgical brow lift, but without surgery it is impressive how much lifting some patients receive. 
By treating the forehead, hifu therapy can makes the skin across the forehead tightened and eye brows lifted, which help patients who no longer can have Botox injected for horizontal upper forehead lines as they suffer from dropped eyebrows because their skin has sagged so much over the years that they need to use their forehead muscle to keep up the skin of the upper eyelids.
Browlifts are done best with surgery-- not treatments. hifu technology does not provide the same degree of lifting as a surgical procedure. It is still an option for the patient who requires or desires a minimal or very moderate elevation of the lateral brow. 
It is a quick, walk-in and walk-out procedure with no down time. Patients may experience slight swelling after the procedure which disappears after a day, and tingling in the lateral forehead because of the large nerve bundles under the skin for about two weeks. 
HIFU uses hifu ultrasound energy to safely firm, tighten and actually lift the skin. It targets the deep supportive structures where aging begins. HIFU may provide benefits for younger patients that are looking to improve their facial appearance by sculpting their facial contours. 
HIFU does not work on all patients and those who have been very damaged by sun exposure and have lost a great deal of their skin's elasticity will not gain as much and sometimes, not any, benefit.

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound vs Thermage for Skin Tightening

Non surgical skin tightening procedures are gaining increasing popularity these days, which makes use of one or more of the energy technologies like laser light, radio frequency, infra red light energy or ultrasound energy to heat the collage in deep skin layers to stimulate natural collagen production in the skin.
thermage treatment and HIFU are both popular treatments used for eliminating wrinkles on the face, neck or arms, loose skin that occurs after weigh loss on stomach and thighs, and loose skin after pregnancy etc. Both devices can cause collagen formation in the dermis to help tighten the facial features.
Thermage uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production. Thermage has applicators that are very small for use on eyelid skin and large ones for body sites such as arms, legs and abdomens. Its medium applicator is used for the face. HIFU has smaller and medium applicators but off facial sites are off-label and studies are ongoing. 
Thermage can achieve skin tightening results, but it is very difficult to predict whether the result will be substantial enough to produce a good result.
hifu uses focused deep ultrasound energy. HIFU is a very impressive device when it comes to results. HIFU is designed more for tightening of the deeper tissues as opposed to just the skin as with Thermage. Depending on the patients needs HIFU can target up to three layers of skin, 1.5 mm,3mm, and 4.5 mm in depth. Thermage only targets tightening. 
Both hurt but the discomfort is over when the energy is stopped from being delivered. These non-invasive techniques can help rejuvenate the skin tone but are not expected to give the same result as a facelift. They also do not improve the skin surface so don't expect wrinkles to be better. 
Overall, hifu therapy is better in facial jowl lifting, cheek lifting, forehead lifting and neck lifting than Thermage.

Can HIFU Lifting System Be Used On The Eyelids

HIFU (high intensity focused ultrasound) is a new technology for face lifting and skin tightening. HIFU is delivered into the deep skin and cause thermal coagulation to SMAS (Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System). It can provide the skin tightening and rejuvenation happens gradually with the time.
hifu therapy can be used, to raise the brows and give the eyes a more open appearance, but the treatment cannot be performed on the upper lids or inside the orbital rim in order to protect your vision. However, it can be applied to the forehead and area directly above the brow to open the eye. It can also be applied to the cheekbone below the lower lid to smooth the transition between the eyelid and cheek, shortening that distance and rejuvenating the face.
hifu technology is a highly-recommended alternative to surgery, but don't expect to see maximum results for about three months. Though some patients may see some immediate improvement, it generally takes some time for the muscle and skin to form the collagen that causes the visual effects of the treatment. For most patients, 90 days or more are required for the best clinical result. Improvement continues for 6 months as new collagen is formed. 
Patients often see a subtle brow lift of 2-3 mm. If your brows are symmetrical and the treatment is applied symmetrically, you should have a symmetrical result. When your brows lift, the distance between the top of your open eyelid and your brow increases. This makes your eyelid appear less droopy or heavy or hooded. 
Also the hifu facial result, like the result from surgery, will depend upon a confluence of factors, including the patient's age, health, and the severity of the skin laxity at the time of treatment.

Does HIFU Face Lifting Treatment hurt?

HIFU is one of the most innovative medical device technologies currently available for lifting the face, neck, and brow region.HIFU can be painful, depending on the settings used, the area being treated, the number of lines being laid down, and the pain tolerance of the patient. 
hifu therapy involves penetrating ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production in the deeper dermal and sub-dermal levels, which results in micro injury to that tissue. As the tissue heals, it increases collagen and as the collagen fibers organize and shorten, a tightening effect is seen on the tissue. There can be some discomfort when the ultrasound energy is being applied but it is temporary and a good sign that collagen-building process has begun. 
All areas of the face are not equal in terms of pain sensation. Some areas on the face can be more painful than others in some individuals and the hifu lifting treatment can be delivered to those areas in stages, rather than delivering multiple lines adjacent to each other consecutively. Around the eyes and over any bony prominence tend to be much more intense. The neck region seems to be the area that tolerates the HIFU treatment the best. 
Patients can be treated with a lower energy level and increased number of lines/pulses and the discomfort/pain level is much lower. The second factor related to pain/discomfort during an hifu procedure is the type of skin being treated. Some patients experience more pain than others during the HIFU treatment. Patients with thicker skin or more dense areas will tolerate an HIFU treatment very well. 
Pain medication can be very helpful for some patients. It is not uncommon to experience a “bruised” feeling afterward but in most cases there is no visible effect on the skin as the target tissue is deeper.

How Long To See The Result From HIFU Lifting System

HIFU is a good choice for patients who are looking for a treatment with no down time, no incisions, and only mild sedation. It offers a more lifted, tighter, and firmer skin texture and appearance. 
hifu machine delivers focused ultrasonic energy to two levels in the body - the muscle/SMAS layer and the deep skin(dermis). The ultrasonic energy creates several small tiny injuries at both of these levels. Tiny thermal injuries cause a healing and repair response, which results in additional collagen growth over the 3-4 months after the treatment. Again, these thermal injury points cause your body to begin a healing and restorative process that builds additional collagen, therefore tightening and firming the skin.
The regenerative process is initiated immediately, but the full effects of the hifu lifting treatment gradually occur over the next 2-3 months, with the ultimate results taking shape around 3-6 months. It is common to see some early changes in the first several weeks due to the thermal effect of the treatment. 
Most patients only need one treatment to achieve their anticipated results, regardless of their chosen treatment area. While hifu skin tightening is not an effective treatment for severe facial aging and is not meant to replace more invasive procedures like brow lift surgery, it is a viable option for those who are not ready for surgery or whose signs of aging are not as advanced.
HIFU treatments are ideal for patients with mild to moderate signs of aging but can be of some benefit to all ages. There are some patients who would be more ideally treated by a surgical rejuvenation procedure; however, not all patients desire to have surgery or not able to accommodate the down-time associated with surgery. 
One can expect about a 20% improvement for sagging and loose skin with hifu procedure. However, you have to be the right candidate. Non-invasive HIFU lifting devices will not replace surgical face lifts if that is what you need.

What Does Laser Hair Removal Feel Like?

Laser hair removal is the fastest, most cost-efficient method of permanent hair reduction. In most cases, laser hair removal slows hair regrowth, but it takes several treatments to provide an extended "hair-free" period. 
laser hair removal technology has been in use for decades and it is generally considered permanent. Any hairs left after treatment should be thin and sparse. Factors that determine the effectiveness of treatment include genetics, the area to be treated, the frequency of treatments, the laser, and the skill of the operator.
Because best laser hair removal lasers target pigment, the more contrast there is between your hair and skin, the better the laser is able to focus its energy on your hair without being absorbed into the surrounding skin, making the procedure less uncomfortable for people with dark hair/light skin. 
Laser hair removal causes discomfort because of the heat that is produced. The discomfort will be the worst the first time you are treated because you have the most hair at that time. lazer hair removal requires multiple sessions spaced out over time to work properly, and with each session you will have less hair, so the discomfort level goes down. 
The laser experience is significantly less painful than waxing. Many people are able to tolerate the pain just fine without doing anything special. Others have a higher pain tolerance (or thicker hair, thinner skin, etc.) 
The feeling like a rubber band popping against their skin. Some treatment centers offer cooling jets attached to the laser, cooling gels, or topical anesthesia. Also most modern best laser hair removal machines for sale employ a cooling mechanism to cool the area immediately after each pulse. 
You can minimize the amount of pain by making sure you shave right before your treatment. Any stubble will cause you more pain than if the skin is closely shaved. This is because the stubble is also heated up by the laser, and you feel it more because it is in contact with the top surface of your skin. 
Normal side effects of laser hair removal include itching during treatment and redness or irritation for up to 3 days. More rare side effects are crusting from ingrown hairs, bruising, or temporary pigment change. Rare side effects are usually caused by inexperienced or inattentive technicians.

The Advantages Of Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal works by sending a targeted pulse laser light directly into your hair follicle. The light is absorbed by the melanin (or pigment) in your hair follicle and converted into heat, which permanently disables your hair follicles from growing a new hair. The darker the hair, the better able the laser will be concentrated in the hair shaft, destroying it. 
laser hair removal provides permanent hair reduction. During the initial treatment period laser hair removal treatments should occur every 6-10 weeks for 6-10 appointments in order to target all of the hair follicles. By the end of 6-10 sessions clients will find that hair is considerably reduced and any hair that does grow back is extremely fine. 
Some people compare lazer hair removal to being less painful than waxing, but of course this will vary for different people. It has also been compared to the feeling of a flicked rubber band. Treatments are performed without sedation however topical aesthetics can be purchased from any pharmacy and applied if required. 
Laser hair removal definitely provides a medium- and long-term time savings. You will have to go in once every two weeks or month for a few laser hair removal sessions, but after the initial course biannual upkeep sessions are usually all that is needed for permanent hair removal. The cost will depend on the laser clinic you choose and where you live, but be wary of clinics offering heavily discounted laser hair removal services, as unskilled operators and inappropriate use of equipment could leave you with an unsatisfactory outcome, or even worse burns and pigmentation. 
Laser hair removal is great for providing smooth, silky skin and eliminating ingrown hairs. Take care to stay out of the sun before and after your treatment to avoid pigmentation of the skin. Laser hair removal won't have any negative effects on the skin. 
laser hairremoval requires between at least six and eight sessions for best results – a permanent reduction of approximately 90-99% of your unwanted hair. This is because hairs grow in three phases and can only be permanently disabled in the first phase, the active growing phase. Sessions are held every four to six weeks so that the laser technician can catch hairs in the first phase of growth. 
Eventually the results will be permanent, but it often requires a few visits to get to that point. Laser hair removal works by destroying the hair's papilla, which is the gland-like structure beneath the skin which controls hair growth.

Is It Safe to Laser the Bikini Area?

Laser hair Removal on the bikini area for men and women CAN be safe and less time consuming. It is safe and very common place to have laser hair removal in the bikini area. 
The area is not very large so numbing cream can be safely applied although there is a risk, rarely, of allergic reactions to any type of cream. There is a risk though, in all patients undergoing bikini laser hair removal of hyperpigmentation (darkening) which is usually temporary but can take months to fade and hypopigmentation or lightening that can be permanent. Depending on your skin type and color, the laser energy settings may be modified to minimize this risk. Test spots can be done firs to see what the best settings for your skin are. 
It is perfectly safe but the Bikini Area requires many more laser hair removal bikini treatments than most other areas. The reason for this is that all hair grows in cycles, with a percentage of hair being in a dormant state at any given time. The bikini region has the highest rate of dormancy at 70% meaning that at any given time, 70% of the hair in that region is dormant and will not respond to the laser. This does not mean that it can not be done, or can not be done safely, but before you start this, you need to understand that you will likely require as many as 10 - 15 treatments for complete removal. 
It is okay to use numbing cream at the brazilian bikini laser hair removal treatment site before the procedure to minimize pain if you are concerned. Just be sure it is thoroughly removed before the procedure. This is also the region with the most coarse hair on the human body making it harder to treat. 
It is best to avoid the sun immediately before and after treatment, however.You should consult your dermatologist and also get the treatment done by the expert and skilled physician who knows about the right laser tool as per your skin tone and hair color.

Is Velashape Effective For Cellulite Reduction

If you’re looking for a non-invasive procedure that will shape and slim problem areas like the buttocks, thighs, love handles and abdomen and combat unsightly cellulite and fat deposits, Velashape may be your choice. 
This non-surgical, non-invasive velashape treatment for cellulite has three components, which together have been shown to be effective in tightening and smoothing skin: radiofrequency energy (RF), infrared light energy, and mechanical vacuum massage.
Heat generated by Velashape shrinks the overinflated fat cells that cause cellulite, creating a smoother appearance and contouring the body’s problem areas like the buttocks, abdomen, hips and thighs. Those are the cells, of course, that form cellulite, so as they shrink, so do the unwanted pockets of cellulite, improving the skin’s contour. While Velashape’s heat works on reducing the fat cells, the device’s mechanical rollers manipulate and smooth out the skin. In addition to minimizing cellulite dimpling, VelaShape reduces the circumference of the treated thighs-by an average of about an inch, according to studies.
Velashape is a non-surgical treatment that requires absolutely no downtime so you can resume your normal daily activities, including exercise, immediately. Most clients find velashape treatments quite comfortable, like a warm deep tissue massage, and report no side effects aside from some minor soreness a day or two after the procedure, similar to the soreness one feels after exercise. 
Velashape even works on smaller areas like your knees and arms, making it one of the most versatile cellulite-reducing procedures on the market and an ideal solution for treating problem areas that may be resistant to other treatment options.
Cellulite is a very common condition, especially among women. Women are basically genetically and hormonally predisposed to cellulite. Smoking makes it worse. Lack of exercise and poor diet (fatty food and little drinking) may enhance the phenomenon.For many people, no matter how healthy they are, or how often and how intensely they exercise, they are unable to reduce or eliminate the appearance of cellulite. 
The Nurnberger-Muller cellulite classification scale:
Stage 1 - no dimpling while the patient is standing or lying down, but the pinch test reveals the "orange peel" appearance.
Stage 2 - "orange peel" dimpling appears spontaneously when standing up, but not when lying down.
Stage 3 - "orange peel" dimpling appears spontaneously both when standing up and lying down.
The ideal vela shape patient is someone with a BMI (Body Mass Index) of less than 30 who falls under Cellulite Classification Levels 1 and 2. 
Of course, all cellulite treatments offer only a temporary solution. After completing a series of VelaShape treatments it depends how determined you are to maintain the results. Changing your diet, exercising regularly, and drinking plenty of water can help your results last longer. It is recommended to have an individual treatment once every 3 months for maintenance. If you are looking for more permanent results, you should consider a cellulite Thermage treatment or surgery.

Get Rid Of Cellulite With Velashape Cellulite Treatment

Cellulite, sagging skin and loose skin after weight loss surgery may be taking their toll on your body confidence, but there are several cellulite and body shaping treatments available to help you achieve your dream figure. The Velashape is designed to target cellulite, smooth and tone the body tissues, and can also tighten the skin. 
The skin's connective tissue surrounds fat cells, which are arranged in chambers. The margins of these chambers contain septa. Over time, the fat cells increase in size and number. This phenomenon together with accumulation of localized edema, push the skin's surface between the septae in an upward direction. This is what creates the lumpy and dimpled skin appearance, also known as the 'cottage cheese' appearance, associated with cellulite.
vela shape is a skin tightening and smoothing procedure and works to create a contoured appearance. VelaShape uses a combination of Bi-polar Radiofrequency (RF), Infrared Light Energy, plus Vacuum and Mechanical Massage to deploy targeted heat to adipose tissue. The system uses laser diodes to heat the deeper layers of tissue breaking down the fat and cellulite The bi-polar radio frequency (RF) accurately targets the fat and cellulite- transmitting energy pulses through the skin into the fat. These three elements can dramatically improve the look and feel of both the deep and superficial skin layers by rejuvenating skin, reducing cellulite and contouring the body in a safe, effective, and non-invasive way.
The heated treatment works to smooth the skin’s surface and also targets cellulite. The effects of the vacuum and mechanical massage, combined with the delivery of heat energy, result in the metabolism of stored body fat and an increase in lymphatic drainage.
Clinical studies showed a circumferential reduction of the thighs of at least 1 centimeter in 85% of all treated areas. Patients typically undergo a series of velashape treatments and must maintain a healthy diet and exercise program in order to see results.
As any non-invasive procedure VelaShape offers a temporary solution, with results promised to last between 6 to 12 months. However, for the longevity of the results, maintenance treatments are needed once every 4 to 6 weeks.

Velashape vs Lipo Laser for Fat Reduction

For many people with stubborn fat, a surgical procedure has traditionally been the method of choice after diet and exercise have failed. As with any surgery, liposuction carries risks and a significant recovery period, prompting many to request a non-surgical alternative. Now, there are several machines designed to help patients lose fat and they often use very different modalities. VelaShape and Lipo Laser are two of the most popular choices.
Velashape combines Bi-Polar Radiofrequency (RF), Infrared Light Energy, plus Vacuum and Mechanical Massage to shrink fat cells, and in turn shrink the cellulite and produce smoother and tighter looking skin. Cellulite is not a product of weight. Whether over weight or extremely fit, your body has cellulite. Velashape is the only FDA approved method that targets cellulite and produces circumferential shrinking. Read more information about our Velashape machine.
lipo laser on the other hand is a much different device. Lipo Laser uses low level lasers that target fat cells and breaks them down into their smallest components. These components are re-absorbed by the body through the blood stream where a little post-procedure exercise helps burn it off. Also FDA approved, the results of Lipo Laser are seen immediately and with just a few short treatments you will see significant fat loss. Our new Lipo Laser slimming machine is on sale now. 
Both devices require multiple treatments. For Lipo Laser, one series of treatments is considered 6 visits over the course of 2 weeks, but many physicians recommend 2 series. Each visit takes about 40 minutes and results are seen around 2 weeks after treatment. vela shape on the other hand typically takes around 4 sessions to see results. Treatments are about 30 minutes each.
Lipo Laser is not really meant for cellulite, but Velashape is.
It's hard to say which treatment is better because it truly depends on the patient's desired outcome. If you want to see some inch reduction all over, than lipo laser machine may be your better option, though many patients report that results are minimal. VelaShape may be a bit more predictable and patients enjoy the reduction in appearance of cellulite as well.
Whatever procedure you choose, it's most important to have reasonable expectations going in. Neither is recommended as a weight loss procedure and those wanting more dramatic results should turn to surgical alternatives.

VelaShape vs. Endermology

Endermologie relies on a system of rollers and it is mainly a mechanical system to reduce cellulite and intercellular swelling. It is one of the oldest technique available for cellulite reduction. Velashape is FDA approved for both cellulite reduction as well as circumferential reduction. Both of these non-invasive procedures can help to tighten and tone up the skin and tissues to give you a more attractive, shapely silhouette. But which one is better? Here's a close look at the key benefits of both VelaShape and Endermologie for body contouring.
Endermologie machines developed by LPG represent the oldest generation of massagers for cellulite and fat reduction. The French weight loss machine Endermologie uses a special two-roller vacuum head to mechanically roll the skin and stimulate skin cells. It increases blood circulation to problem areas, releases toxins and eliminates fatty deposits. 
The Endermologie treatment promotes lymphatic drainage, shrinks fat cells and enforces production of collagen and elastin resulting in healthier looking skin. The treatment cycle usually involves two sessions per week for 4-6 weeks followed by 6-8 weeks of 1 session, and finally, once monthly sessions for maintenance. 
Best known as Kim Kardashian‘s treatment of choice for cellulite, velashape uses rollers and suction to massage the deeper layers of skin and fat just like Endermologie. velashape treatment relies on three components: a vacum and mechanical systems, a radio frequency energy delivery and an infrared light. The latter two help to deliver energy to the sub dermis and to the fat. This is the main advantage over other techniques as it will tighten the skin and reduce the circumference of some areas. Velashape’s treatment cycle is much shorter – 4 to 6 weekly treatments followed by monthly maintenance sessions.
Both vela shape and Endermologie offer a number of benefits for those who want to tighten and tone up the skin after surgery, or just reduce the appearance of cellulite. The difference between the two is that Endermology works with deep tissue massage and Velashape uses deep tissue massage plus infrared plus radio frequency. 
Therefore, velashape results (compared to Endermology) can be obtained faster with fewer treatments. On the other hand, for certain patients with particular medical conditions, Endermology may be a better option for them. Endermologie also is the cheapest cellulite treatment for a series.
