"LUST" (Lipolysis Ultra-Sonic Thermal) Fat/Cellulite Reduction Treatment

Call for pricing


"LUST"
is a non-surgical lipolysis (breaking down of the fat) treatment that utilizes high-frequency thermal energy. Unlike invasive liposuction, the treatments utilize high-frequency thermal energy to break down the fat causing the fat cell to shrink down in size.

 

"LUST" treatments utilize energy from high-frequency thermal waves to penetrate the dermal and sub-dermal tissues to break down fat resistant to weight loss and exercise. Using revolutionary multipolar RF technology, this treatment selectively increases the temperature of fat cells at both the deep and superficial layers.  This increases metabolism and the release of fat from the cells through the lymphatic system.  After treatments, the fat cells shrink in size and skin is restored closer to original form, reducing or eliminating the appearance of cellulite.  The ultrasonic thermal energy also tightens and improves skin elasticity while smoothing and improving skin texture and scar damaged areas, making it a great treatment for the face and neck, as well as the body. Treatments melt away inches by breaking down fat cells with its lipolysis (fat dissolving) facilitation to help control obesity & enhance body shape while, tightening and smoothing your skin.

 

"LUST " treatments remove biological wastes through a high-frequency thermal massage that acts deep on a patient’s subcutaneous fat, and increases skin elasticity by regenerating the collagen tissues.

 

Frequently Asked Questions:

 

Q: Who is best suited for this procedure?

A: The best results will be seen on someone who is within 5-25 pounds of their ideal body weight, but there are no restrictions based on weight or skin type. 

 

Q: Is it okay to have this procedure done if I’m tanning?

A: Absolutely.  This is not a laser procedure, so the presence of additional melanin in the skin will not effect the outcome or cause any damage to the skin.

 

Q: Does it hurt?

A: “LUST” treatment is a non-surgical, painless procedure.  You should feel a heating sensation on your skin, but no discomfort.  Some patients experience slight swelling post-procedure, but this goes down within a few hours.

 

Q: What is the down time?

A: There is no down time following the procedure other than a little redness and swelling. It is recommended to drink at least four, 8 ounce glasses of water following the procedure to flush your body of the fat and toxins that were released into your system.

 

Q: Is it Permanent?

A: The total number of fat cells in the human body does not increase when a person gains a large amount of weight. The fat cells simply become larger with weight gain. With the "LUST" treatment, the fat within the cell is broken down and the cell shrinks back down in size. Therefore, with weight gain your fat cells will again increase in size. You will retain the benefits of skin tightening, skin texture and scar diminishing improvements. As with any form of Liposuction, the fat cell is actually removed. Naturally weight gain can occur, but the fat would accumulate where removal of fat cells has not been done.

 

Q: Who performs the treatments?

A: Treatments are administered by our licensed medical aestheticians.

 

Q: How many treatments would I need?

A: One to two treatments per week for a series of 6 to 8 treatments is recommended for optimal results. A reduction in caloric intake (diet) and an increase in caloric expenditure (exercise) are insurance for your great results.

 

Q: How much does it cost?

A: "LUST" sessions can be purchased individually or in packages. Low Introductory Prices are available now for a limited time only!
