“I would like to thank you for changing my life. I give God the credit, but he used your hands and mind to do his work. When I met you, I was 42 years old and not aging very gracefully. I mace in for some restylane and was very happy with the results. You helped make a scar less noticeable and give my face a more youthful appearance….”What is Lipo-Ex (Fat Reduction)?
The Lipo-Ex fat reduction machine introduces a new era in the field of cosmetic medicine in treatments for fat and cellulite. This is the only alternative to liposuction surgery with permanent results – not like a body wrap or endermology which simply changes the structure of the cellulite – this actually destroys the cellulite/fat cell, which is then excreted through the body’s lymphatic drainage system. The Lipo-Ex uses bi-polar radiofrequency (RF) technology for the treatment of cellulite, subcutaneous fat, and visceral fat.
It’s Non-Surgical, Non-invasive and painless. No needles!
How does Lipo-Ex work?
Radiofrequency (RF) currents recognize fatty tissue by its high water content. It makes it easy to selectively heat and release melted fats. Bi-Polar Frequency of the RF current delivers heat to deep subcutaneous tissue without damaging the skin. Deep heating will tighten tissue, melt fat, and stimulate collagen production. The deep heat reduces the orange peel or dimple look. It is also an effective treatment in reducing stretch marks and firming of the sagging skin.
In addition to fat and cellulite removal, LIPOTRON can also dissolve fat up to 8 inches deep, around internal organs (called visceral fat). Visceral fat is particularly unhealthy since it markedly increases the risk of heart disease.
How many treatments does it take?
Full course consists of 10 sessions, one week apart. It takes about 3 treatments to start seeing results (loss of inches, smoothing of the cellulite, tightening of the skin). Treatment session lasts 40 minutes and feels like a hot-stone massage. Many people feel tingling or warm sensation, or no sensation at all.
The following may be experienced after the treatment:
- Redness for several hours post treatment
- Dryness or itching
- Remote possibility of a burn to the skin
- Possible increase in menstrual flow
To minimize skin irritation during & after treatment we use special silicone conductor gel and we will ask you to apply moisturizer at home (Aloe Vera). Skin and underlying fat reach the temperature of 41 C during the treatment. Melted fat is removed from the body by natural means few hours later and treated area feels like “jelly” for a day or two.
