What is Cavitation?
Cavitation is a non-invasive procedure that uses ultrasound waves to break down and liquefy fat cells in the body, which are then naturally eliminated through the lymphatic system. The procedure is typically used to target areas of the body with stubborn pockets of fat, such as the abdomen, flanks, back, hips, thighs, or upper arms.
How does Cavitation works? During a cavitation session, a handheld device is used to apply ultrasound waves to the targeted area. The waves create a vibration within the fat cells, causing them to rupture and release their contents. The liquefied fat is then carried away by the body's lymphatic system and eventually eliminated through urine.
How to prepare for Cavitation? Before a cavitation session, it is recommended that individuals drink plenty of water to help flush out the liquefied fat after the procedure. It is also advised to avoid alcohol and caffeine, as these can dehydrate the body and make it more difficult to eliminate the fat.
What should I do after Cavitation? After the procedure, it is important to continue drinking plenty of water and to engage in light exercise to help stimulate the lymphatic system and facilitate the elimination of the fat. It is also recommended to avoid alcohol, caffeine, and fatty foods for at least 24 hours after the procedure.
How many sessions are recommended?
The number of sessions recommended for optimal results can vary depending on the individual and the amount of fat being targeted. Typically, a course of 6-12 sessions is recommended, with each session lasting around 30-60 minutes. Can I do Cavitation after surgery?
It is generally recommended to wait at least 3 weeks after plastic surgery before undergoing cavitation. This is to allow the body to heal and for any swelling or inflammation to subside. It is important to consult with a qualified healthcare provider to determine the appropriate timing for cavitation after any surgical procedure.
