and exercise.

healthy with no underlying medical issues. Someone who is willing to maintain their
transformation with diet and exercise, and someone who is willing to put in some work to
achieve their goals. It is the right option for those who are at a fairly healthy BMI. Those looking
for a greater amount of fat reduction would not be suited for this treatment as it will not yield you
the desired results.
Is RF treatment painful?
treatment is painless! During treatment you will feel a warm sensation. Temporary redness in
the treatment area is possible but subsides fairly quickly. Its comparable to a heated massage!

No downtime is required! Although it is possible to experience some redness or change in color
of the treated area temporarily

Treatment is carried out once per week over 8-16weeks.

Each session is approximately 30-90 minutes, depending on area of treatment and individual
treatment plans.
Are There any risks or complications?
Erythema (redness), and edema (swelling) can occur, this is typical of the treatment and normal.
This treatment will result in the denaturation of fat cells, and as a result the fat cells will be
eliminated.
What happens to the fat cells after they are targeted by the RF treatment?
Fat cells will begin to breakdown in the liver where they are distributed throughout the body and
washed away through lymphatic vessels. It is important during this treatment to drink plenty of
water every day to help with this process! Using Milk Thistle may also help with your liver
function to help aid in digestion of fat. Check this link out for more benefits.
