Introducing Cavi-Lipo

High Ultrasound / cavitation wave stimulates and vibrates the fat cell at such a high rate it causes tiny air molecules to form that are negative in pressure. These tiny air “bubbles” force their way out of the cell and by doing so burst the fat cell. That same ultrasound wave passing through the surface skin stimulates and oxygenates the surface cells causing a firming and tightening of the skin. The Cavi-Lipo system reduces fat cells, improves cellulite, tightens skin and improves lymphatic drainage. The FDA has cleared Cavi-Lipo for use in the United States.

Liposuction is an invasive procedure that removes the entire area of fat cells from deposits beneath the skin using a hollow stainless steel tube (called a cannula) with the assistance of a powerful vacuum. Liposuction can be accomplished either with the use of general anesthesia, or with IV sedation, or totally by local anesthesia. In contrast, the Cavi-Lipo treatment is a 100% non-invasive that uses Ultrasound / cavitation applied externally to stimulate the fat cell and emulsify and release fat. There is no use of anesthesia, nor any pain, gels, creams, numbing agents, needles and no downtime.

The Cavi-Lipo is effective for all body areas where localized fat deposits or cellulite exists that are resistant to diet and exercise. These areas could be: Under your chin Under you arms Your neck Your shoulders .... all areas you'd like to remove fat!

Yes, there is minimal risk involved in using the Cavi-Lipo therapy and it is considered a safe alternative to invasive procedures such as tumescent liposuction, lipodissolve and other non-invasive devices like the Accent, VelaShape, and Thermage, which rely on heating the tissue and can cause discomfort. None of these have the proven data showing how fat cell size is reduced. The Cavi-Lipo treatment is 100% non-invasive and causes no bruising, scaring and zero downtime. During the treatment you will feel no discomfort, no anesthesia will be used and you can assume normal activities immediately following each treatment. This treatment is not allowed ff you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant. It is recommended that you wait until after your last postpartum visit with your doctor (usually 6 weeks after birth) to begin your Cavi-Lipo treatment. It is not recommended if you are breast feeding. Additionally, if you have a pacemaker, this treatment is not for you. There are no known detrimental risks but potential unknown risks may exist. Cavi-Lipo may not be as effective on patients with diabetes or thyroid disorders where the metabolic system is potentially impaired.

No. Just like any ultrasound, this is completely painless. You can do this procedure during your lunch break and return to work with absolutely no discomfort.

The majority of clients have reported no adverse side effects. Most common are headaches immediately following the treatment or a strong desire to naturally eliminate waste within a day or two following the treatment. This is the body’s way of expelling toxins. It takes approximately 72 hours for the body to process the material that has been produced.

Results vary by individual. Typically you would expect between 1/4 inch to I inch immediately. As your body expells the distroyed fat cells, the area will continue to shrink. For some patients it may take up to a week to see their results, however it is more common to take three days. Overall results vary on the amount of total fat content being removed. Some can see results immediately after the first treatment. Others can take up to a week to see results. Usually the results are subtle, taking several visits before noticing a visual difference. Usually sessions 3, 6 and 12 are the most noticable. Your body will continue to shrink following treatments for as long as six months, given that your lifestyle is mindful.

By maintaining a healthy diet and exercise you can expect long-term results. Cavi-Lipo is especially ideal for 2 types of people: Those that are already following a healthy diet and lifestyle and want to remove localized pockets of fat or drop body fat percent. OR Those who want to use the Cavi-Lipo and the recommended lifestyle protocol to “jump start” their slimming efforts as motivation for maintaining a healthier and slimmer lifestyle.

For larger areas, a minimum of 12 treatments are recommended. More treatments may be needed if you have a high content of fat to remove. Areas like the chin, neck or other small areas, 3-6 treatments will likely work. If you are using this treatment to jumpstart weight loss, the number of treatments will be much less because the work will be more effective. It is not recommended that you miss an appointment. Prior to starting the Cavi-Lipo treatment, it is important that you are committed to the recommended lifestyle protocol which includes at least a series of 6 treatments.

-Have cardiac and vascular diseases -Are pregnant or nursing -Are going through chemotherapy -Have liver or kidney disease -Have a pacemaker -Have metal plates in the treatment area -Are teen-aged or younger

You will need to book a consultation with out office prior to any appointment. The purpose of this is to evaluate your goals and desired outcome as well as assess the area/s you are working on. We will discuss what to expect during each session, additional resources to compliment your goals as well as what participation you will need to have before, during and after your treatment in order to achieve long lasting results. Regardless of how big or small your goals are, our effort is to produce results beyond your expectations and create the best outcome possible.

Contrary to the alternative, liposuction, the cost of having this procedure is very cost effective. Because the work isn't done all in one day, this treatment allows you to budget. And because treatment sessions are stretched out, the results are more natural and smooth. Cost for treatment can be as low as $89 per session. Typical lyposuction for small areas (10-15 lbs of loss) will range between $4,000-$6,000. We will discuss the cost of treatment during the consultation while we prepare your treatment plan.
