How does it work?
Our device uses a combination of Red Light and Infrared Light which causes the fat cell membranes to temporarily change the permeability of the cell wall. This allows some of the fat contents to seep out to where it can then be processed by the lymphatic system, just like any other waste. We then incorporate our supplementation.
Expertise:
Working directly with professionals to establish tools for sustaining in the long term. Professionals with expertise target proper eating habits with the right vitamin and nutrition therapy to turn on the furnace and continue achieving long term goals of burning fat. One major benefit of getting energy from your stored fat is BODY RESHAPING! When abnormal fat disappears, so does your double chin, potbelly, and excess flab around your hips, buttocks, thighs, and arms. Furthermore, since this fat is burned and utilized properly for the energy, you do not get saggy skin when you begin to lose size.
What happens at my consultation?
We like to call this discovery day! This gives us an opportunity to get to know each other. You will meet with the Doctor and Nutrition expert to go over your goals. This will help him determine if you are a good candidate. We try and tailor our program to fit everyone’s individual needs. Once the doctor determines what course of action will work best for you, we will schedule your first treatment. You will then be given instructions to prepare for your first day.
What happens at my first treatment?
When you arrive you will be placed on our state of the art 3D body scanner. The scanner will take over 600 images of your body in 30 seconds to create a razor-sharp 3D image with less than 3% margin of error. This is a much more accurate way to measure than using a tape. After your scan, you will be brought into the treatment room where one of our technicians will wrap you in our light pads. You can now relax for the next 10 minutes as the light gently removes the fat. After your procedure, you then again will be placed on the 3D scanner so that we can compare your results.
How long do the Light treatments take?
Because we have the most powerful light available, your treatment time is only 10 minutes. This may not seem long, but we can assure you that this is all you need. Extended treatment times at this power could prevent your body from entering lipolysis, which is the goal.
How do you measure success?
We use a state of the art 3D body scanner. This advanced technology has only a 3% margin for error. So the measurements are precise. You can actually see your body’s transformation.
What areas of the body can be treated?
The treatment can be effectively used on essentially every part of the body where localized fat deposits exist that are resistant to diet and exercise. This includes the waist, hips, upper legs, thighs, and upper arms, back, buttocks, and face.
Does this help with cellulite and loose skin?
Patients have noticed an improvement with cellulite as well as skin tone and texture. In addition to Red Light, we also use Infrared Light. This helps to build collagen which repairs and tightens your damaged skin.
What happens to the fat?
After being released, the fat is broken down into free fatty acids and glycerol and enters the bloodstream. Once in the bloodstream, fatty acids can be either used as fuel or quickly eliminated by the body through the lymphatic system just like any other waste.
Why don’t you destroy fat cells?
Although this may sound like a good idea, and many clinics will use this as a selling point, it’s not. If you destroy fat cells in one area, then other areas with remaining fat cells potentially can get bigger faster. The fat has to go somewhere.
Is this permanent?
There is a big misconception that surgery or destroying fat is permanent. That is just not the case. Without moderate lifestyle changes you will start to retain fat in other areas of your body that were not treated. Everyone needs fat cells to survive. Destroying all of your fat cells is not an option. Our procedure is as permanent as any other available.
Do I have to follow a diet?
You can expect better results if you reduce your caloric intake somewhat and increase your water consumption. ½ your body weight in ounces is recommended. Meanwhile, reducing alcohol consumption will help. We do recommend our nutritional program for optimal results!
Do I have to exercise?
Each of your sessions should be followed by at least 10 minutes of exercise to stimulate circulation and help burn the fat that has been released. To ensure this, after your treatment you are placed on our vibration therapy machine. This also helps to stimulate your lymphatic system. We also recommend a compression garment to help squeeze the fat out of the cell.
How many sessions do I need?
You will see changes from your very first session! Best results are seen after a series of sessions. How many you need depends on your goals. Your tech will review the options at your initial consult. It’s like getting a tan, you want to continue to build on it at first, and then it’s just maintenance. We give you all the tools so that you can keep the fat off long after your treatments.
How often can I do a treatment?
We recommend doing a treatment once to twice per week for best results.
Cost?
Without knowing your specific goals, it is impossible to say how many treatments you will need. This is why we recommend a complementary consultation. The doctor will then give his recommendations so that you can make an informed decision. There are no high pressure sales. We provide a relaxed environment.
