ProMax Lipo

The ProMax Lipo uses radio frequency technology and ultrasound waves to selectively target fat cells without affecting neighbouring tissue. The fat cells become more permeable after treatment which allows transport of triglycerides (fat) out of the cell. The triglycerides are then removed via the body’s own immune system over the following 2 to 3 days.

Am I suitable for treatment?

The ProMax Lipo is suitable for most individuals and is fine for all skin tones. It is for those who are on some sort of weight loss programme and just need a boost to shift the excess in certain areas. Or those that are looking to reduce those small areas of stubborn fat, but are roughly the size they want to be. However, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding treatment is not advisable.

Your consultation to determine the treatment areas and how many treatments are required. This treatment is completely painless treatment and actually gives a warming sensation and a feels a bit like a hot stone massage.

The Science…

Ultrasonic Cavitation Body 

Sound waves penetrate deep into the fat layer causing vibrations, and the formation of micro bubbles within the interstitial fluid. As these bubbles collapse the resulting shock wave leads to a temporary change in the fat cell membrane allowing lipids to escape the cell and be ejected by the body. Perfect for stubborn areas of fat that prove unresponsive to exercise such as abdomen, upper arms and outer thighs. 

Multi-Polar Radio Frequency & Vacuum Body 

Uses controlled waves of energy to create heating in the subcutaneous and deep dermal layers. This thermal effect improves circulation to increase fat cell metabolism and reduce the appearance of cellulite. The thermal energy also results in instant collagen contraction and creates long term improvement to the collagen fibres for firmer, tighter skin. Vacuum massage technology provides powerful lymphatic drainage to process the lipids released during cavitation and remove toxins to further improve the appearance of cellulite. 

Bi-Polar Radio Frequency & Vacuum Face (to be used when marketing face treatments) 

Creates thermal energy within facial dermal tissues for instant tightening and lifting. Perfect for around the eyes, jawline and neck, not only does the Liposhape instantly tighten, but it provides long term collagen stimulation for a younger, fresher appearance. The introduction of vacuum at this stage also improves circulation and removes toxins for a brighter complexion.

The skin can feel tighter just after the first session! However, overall improvement is often noticed after only a few sessions, but best results are seen after a full course. The results vary with some people loosing 1-2 inch circumference on somewhere like the abdomen, other's may get a more subtle result. We are all individuals and with this treatment an all-rounded approach is necessary.  Ideally you should be using this treatment in conjunction with a balanced diet and exercise to get the best results and maintain them!

What does ProMax Lipo feel like?

Treatment is not considered painful, most people find a warm, tingling sensation is felt and a high-pitched sound is heard.

 How is treatment carried out?

A layer of gel is applied to the treatment area and an applicator moves in circular motions delivering Ultrasound energy. A warm, tingling sensation may be felt but treatment is very comfortable. 

Is it permanent?

We can gain and loose fat quickly sometimes and most of us find our weight fluctuates somewhat. This treatment cannot stop that and therefore you may gain weight again on that area. The fat cells are still there. Some people will have maintenance treatments every 1-3 months to help retain the result, and with good diet and ideally some exercise there is no reason why you can't.

The cost will vary depending on the clinic you visit, however an approximate cost is £840 for a course of 8 sessions.
