The approach to losing fat has changed and we’re all to blame. Or should we thank the technology? Our busy lifestyles don’t necessarily allow sufficient exercise to stay in shape, especially prior to the last minute event. Our culture of quick fixes needs something that will help us achieve our fitness goals quicker and we now can make use of technology.
In the past, non-invasive body shaping has become the preferred treatment option for famous people as well as athletes and anyone who simply wants to eliminate those stubborn pockets of fat, without having to spend hours at the gym or to the doctor. Due to the increasing popularity of this new method to losing weight salons and clinics are investing in body-sculpting technologies and are quickly noticing the advantages for their clients as well as their earnings. With a variety of body sculpting techniques available, it’s difficult to choose the most suitable tool to meet the needs of your client. This is where we can assist.
Are there any effective ways to reduce fat?
There are two major methods for non-invasive fat reduction: melting fat and freezing. The first method is radiofrequency (RF) that transforms electrical energy into heat under the skin and causes tissue cells in the fat to heat up. The process of freezing fat is done using Cryolipolysis (Cryo) which utilizes sub-zero temperatures to freeze fat cells. Both techniques lead to lipoapoptosis. The the cells that store fat are eliminated and the fat is eliminated via the lymphatic system of the body.
In contrast to the thermometer and thermometer, each Radiofrequency and Cryolipolysis provide an viable alternative to surgical intervention that has proven successful with numerous treatment courses that have drastically decreased waistlines. However, how do these different techniques differ?
Clinical application
Therapists are more active in RF treatments by moving the handpiece of treatment over the area of the treatment that creates a uniform result, without any gaps. When using Cryo treatment the therapist only needs to install the Cryo applicators, and then turn them on. But since Cryo application devices are stationary in treatment and can be rather large The treatment is restricted to more extensive body parts like the legs, abdomen, and back. Contrary to this the RF treatment are able to be applied nearly everywhere on the body even areas that are prone to excess body weight or loose skin, such as the neck and arms.
What do “fat melting” and “fat frozen’ experience like to customers?
Clients usually experience an incredibly warm and comfortable sensation when they undergo radiofrequency body shaping as well as when paired with other complementary technologies , such as massage (to improve lymphatic drainage) It’s quite relaxing.
Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of Cryolipolyisis. The suction on the skin that pulls it and the cold temperatures of -11degC can cause the treatment to be very uncomfortable. The patients may also experience a soreness in their joints after their fat freezing procedure, like an injury to the muscle or a vigorous exercise.
Potential side effects
To use Fat Melting treatments to effectively reduce the fat cells and increase collagen production, a temperature range of 40 to 42 degrees Celsius is required on the surface of your skin. A variety of RF devices that are advanced include integrated temperature monitoring systems that ensure that safe therapeutic temperatures aren’t over-extended and reduce the risk of thermal injuries.
Although not very common”ice burns” are a problem in Cryolipolysis. Additionally, treatments that freeze fat are prone to paradoxical hyperplasia of the adipose. The adverse reaction of the treatment causes the fat cells and the treatment areas becoming larger instead of smaller.
Fat Melting vs Fat Freezing treatment results
Although both techniques provide efficient treatments for reducing fat Cryolipolysis is a method with apparent drawbacks. The results are confined to the area of treatment without affecting the skin’s laxity and it is difficult to drain lymphatic fluid.
Typically, patients will notice an improvement in waist measurement right away after treatment, however, it is a bit flimsy and a bit misleading since our cells tend to contract in response to cold. While treatments using Cyrolipolysis are frequently coupled with other body shaping methods like ultrasonic cavitation, they cannot be done simultaneously, which could lead to an rise in the time required for treatment.
Studies conducted in clinical trials have repeatedly shown that RF is the more efficient of the two techniques and has better results over a wider surface, substantial skin tightening and greater lymphatic drainage which is essential for quicker results. Additionally, when paired with other technologies , like infrared, RF has been proven to produce significantly superior outcomes. This combination approach to technology is the preferred choice of many aesthetic surgeons who utilize RF to enhance and improve the results of surgical liposuction surgeries.
What’s the future for Non-surgical methods to reduce fat?
The need for slimmer waistlines won’t go down the road. Inspiring by celebrities’ endorsements and a “quick fix culture and a growing number of people are looking for fat-loss methods.
If you introduce this service into your salon, you’ll be able to remain ahead of the game and provide your customers with the look they’ve always wanted. It could be a natural follow-up in the treatment of hair lasers or it could be paired with other treatments to give the ultimate beauty package.
