Principles of Ultrasound Cavitation

Works by utilizing ultrasonic energy,delivered in PULSE
(SHORT BURST OF ENERGY TO AVOID HEAT BUILDING UP IN THE
TISSUE)
To effectively emulsify unwanted fat cells while leaving

surrounding tissue unaffected
Non invasive procedure
Does not have radiation
Within a particular range of frequency (FROM 20 TO 70 KHZ)
creates microbubbles inside a liquid
The name CAVITATION comes from the cavities
(MICROBUBBLES) CREATED BY THESE PRESSURE WAVES
How does it works?

The ultrasonic waves
delivered via a hand held
device, focus their energy
in the subcutaneous fat.
The sound waves hit the
fat cells under the skin,
causing them to vibrate
and to break up the cell
membranes. The
destroyed fat cells are
then carried to the liver,
where they are
metabolized.

INDICATIONS:
ULTRASOUND CAVITATION is
used to treat stubborn areas of
fat and cellulites which are
resistant to diet and exercise
such as those found on the:
Abdomen, e.g., tummy, waist

Thighs, e.g., saddle bags
Back, e.g., love handles
Arms

Common questions ask?

Note: Dont give false assurance
How many session would it take?
Depends on the size of bulges and body frame of a person:
Small Frames = 4-6 sessions
Big Frames = 6-12 sessions
How long is the treatment time?
1 hour per week
How long is the interval of treatment?
Depends on the proper interval of the treatment:
Once a week
How long is the result?
Depends if the client pairs it with proper diet and exercise
Has faster and bigger result
Procedure
Strokes
Arms Start from elbow then drain to armpit area
Abdomen Focus on one area first then drain to inner thighs but not too
close to mons pubis or might cause inflammation
Thighs Start from lower portion to upper area then drain on the inner thighs
area
Measurement use centimeter side
Arms Place tape measure from shoulder bone to elbow, get the center
portion measurement .
From the center portion measure 3cm up and 3cm down.
From the 3cm up portion, measure the circumference around
From the 3cm down portion, measure the circumference around
Note: Using the measurement taken before the treatment subtract it to the
measurement taken after the treatment and add those results to take the
final measurement result
Hands on
Drape the client properly

Measure the area before the treatment
Expose only the area to treat
Apply gel on the area to treat
Set the time and sound intensity of the Cavi machine to use
Check the highest intensity of the machine to use and start on the average
intensity of sound
Increase sound intensity as desired and tolerated by the client to prevent
irritation or discomfort
Advise client not to plug headsets or earphone
Divide the area into two sides as well as the time
Be sure to finish one side before transferring into another area
Avoid bony prominences
Maintain on a circular movement or focus on one area and do the draining
before transferring into another area until allotted time is finished
Measure again after the treatment
Side Effects
You can see some redness
but will disappear
gradually
A low intensity whistling
sound will be heard during
the treatment and
considered by most
people tolerable
Treatment is generally
considered by most
people to be painless, with
no pain or discomfort post
treatment being reported.
After Treatment
Offer the client to drink
warm tea or warm
beverages
Advise client to take
proper diet and continue
exercise if possible for
