We tested for you... Lipocavitation to sculpt your figure using ultrasound power

Feeling good about your body no matter the month of the year sometimes means looking for new ways to care for it. This involves diet, exercise, wellness rituals, and more targeted solutions like lipocavitation. This non-invasive aesthetic medicine technique can reduce localized, often stubborn fat, restoring a feeling of lightness and balance in your body. How does it work? What results can you expect? We'll tell you everything!

What is lipocavitation? 

Often presented as a gentle alternative to liposuction, lipocavitation is an aesthetic medicine technique that uses ultrasound to target localized fat, without needles or surgery. It acts on the fat cells located under the skin by weakening them, allowing the body to eliminate them naturally. All this, without pain and without social exclusion . Far from a miracle solution in the race to slim down, lipocavitation is aimed at people who wish to work on one or more specific areas of their body for reasons of comfort, balance or well-being.

How exactly does it work? 

To understand how lipocavitation works, you must first understand the principle of cavitation . Cavitation is a physical phenomenon that corresponds to the formation of microbubbles of gas in a liquid, caused by sudden variations in pressure. Lipocavitation works in the same way thanks to a device emitting waves whose frequency is between 38 kHz and 42 kHz . The emitted waves generate small air bubbles inside the body which end up bursting when faced with the force of the ultrasound, causing the dispersion of fat cells. This leads to the destruction of the wall of the cells that store fat, which are sometimes resistant in the body ( adipocytes ). Once released and free in the body, the adipocytes are metabolized by the liver before being eliminated by natural means.  

What are the benefits of lipocavitation?

Lipocavitation helps to reshape the silhouette by inducing localized fat loss in an area and can thus allow a loss of centimeters in the treated area (such as the thigh circumference for example). This treatment also helps to reduce cellulite and the orange peel appearance and to firm and smooth the skin

How does a Lipocavitation session take place?

Before any lipocavitation treatment, an initial diagnosis is performed to determine the expected results and assess the area of fat to be treated. The treatment then begins with the application of a conductive gel to the targeted area, followed by a massage of the area using an ultrasound probe using circular or smoothing movements. 

 

The session lasts between 20 and 45 minutes depending on the targeted area. The treatment is completely painless, you can feel a gentle heat and a slight crackling in the ear. It is recommended to carry out 5 to 12 sessions , spaced 1 week apart. Before and after the session, it is recommended to hydrate well and move to stimulate lymphatic circulation. 

 

This technique can be used on different parts of the body such as: 

  • The belly

  • The thighs 

  • The buttocks

  • The hips

  • The knees

  • The back

  • The arms 

Our opinion on lipocavitation

“As a regular at Linda's detoxifying lymphatic drainage sessions ( @aesthetic_club_paris ), I was looking for a more targeted solution to try to reshape my defined hips, which had always made me self-conscious. The promises of lipocavitation were tempting, especially if this method could help me feel comfortable in my pants again. While the power of the ultrasound can be disturbing to the ear, the treatment itself is not unpleasant: the movements are gentle and light, and Linda is very attentive, always attentive and keen to create a moment of pure relaxation that is truly effective. After the second session, I noticed a real improvement: my silhouette seemed smoother, more defined, all those pants, dresses, and skirts I had been avoiding fit me again, and above all, I felt more confident. After 5 sessions, I realized I had lost 3 cm around my hips.” - Elsa, Editorial Manager

Linda's tips for looking good

  • Adopt a balanced lifestyle over the long term : “The goal is to find a regular balance that is good for the body and mind. Treatments like lipocavitation can “empty” fat cells, but they don’t disappear. An unbalanced diet or one that’s too rich for your body and its needs can replenish them. Exercise is also a valuable ally.”
  • Drink enough water every day : “ Good hydration is essential to help the body eliminate and function optimally, especially after treatment .”

  • Move as soon as possible, at your own pace : “ When I talk about moving, I'm not talking about sport but simply about walking, moving and prioritizing the use of your legs .”

  • Detaching yourself from the number on the scale : “ Being comfortable with your figure means first of all feeling aligned with yourself. Weight is just one indicator among others: 67 kg will not have the same impact on a person who is 1.50 m tall as on a person who is 1.80 m tall. What matters is the feeling, not just the numbers .”

  • Treat yourself to treatments that feel good : “ Yes, it’s expensive, but if it makes you feel good, it can be a real boost, both physically and mentally. Lymphatic drainage is an ideal complementary treatment for detoxifying and promoting the elimination of fat by stimulating circulation. ”
