What is Fat Cavitation?
Ultrasound Fat Cavitation is a safe, gentle, non-invasive and non-surgical alternative to reduce stubborn subcutaneous fat. By using RF heat energy at temperatures of up to 60 degrees, it targets and shrinks the size of fat cells, causing a long lasting (but not permanent) volume reduction. The liquified fat is then expelled naturally via the body's liver and lymphatic system.
Treatment
Fat cavitation, also known as ultrasonic cavitation or non-invasive body contouring, is a cosmetic procedure that aims to reduce localized fat deposits in the body. It uses low-frequency ultrasound waves to disrupt the fat cells, causing them to break down and release their contents.
​
During a fat cavitation treatment, a handheld device emits ultrasound waves that penetrate the skin and target the underlying fat cells. The ultrasound waves create small bubbles or cavities within the fat cells, causing them to rupture. The released fat is then metabolized and eliminated by the body's natural processes, such as the lymphatic system and liver.
​
Fat cavitation is typically used to treat areas with stubborn fat deposits, such as the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, or love handles. It is considered a non-surgical alternative to liposuction and is generally advertised as a painless and non-invasive procedure with no downtime.
​
It's important to note that while fat cavitation can result in temporary fat reduction, it may not provide the same level of dramatic results as surgical procedures. Multiple sessions are usually recommended for optimal outcomes, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, is crucial to sustain the results.
As with any cosmetic procedure, it is advisable to consult with a qualified professional to determine if fat cavitation is suitable for your specific needs and to ensure your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment.
Frequently
Asked
Questions
How many Fat Cavitation treatments will I need?
You will start seeing results immediately, but for lasting results, a course of 8-10 treatments is recommended, with at least 3 days in between each procedure.
​
What is the difference between Fat Freezing and Fat Cavitation?
Fat freezing ‘freezes’ pockets of stubborn fat to permanently eliminate and kill fat cells whereas fat cavitation targets fat cells by using ultrasound waves to release stored fat to liquid, free fatty acids which are then metabolised by the body and used for energy.
​
Who should avoid Fat Cavitation?​
Anyone with medical or health problems or those with heart or liver disease, or if you are pregnant or nursing should avoid it. Those who have medical implants in the body such as cochlear implants, pacemakers are also unsuitable. Also those who are currently taking contraindicated medication such as a skin thinner or anti-acne medication.
Post Treatment Aftercare

An intense quick workout immediately after this procedure ensures that the fat is excreted via the lymphatic system and doesn't get reabsorbed again
-
We recommend at least 30 minutes daily exercise, increasing your water intake and adopting a healthier diet
-
Increase water intake and drink minimum 2L of water a day
