FAQ about HIFU

HIFU stands for "High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound." It is a non-invasive technique that uses ultrasound to target and stimulate deep layers of the skin or specific tissues, creating a lifting and firming effect.

There are five main types of HIFU treatments:
• HIFU Radar: An advanced treatment for increased precision in tissue targeting.
• HIFU Vaginal: For vaginal tightening and rejuvenation.
• HIFU Body: Targets specific body areas to reduce fat and tighten the skin.
• HIFU Face: Used to lift and tone the face, often around the cheeks, jawline, and neck.

Focused ultrasound penetrates beneath the skin’s surface to heat deep layers, stimulating collagen production and causing tissue tightening.

Most patients experience a sensation of warmth or tingling, which is generally tolerable. Mild discomfort may occur, especially in areas where the skin is thinner.

The duration depends on the area being treated. A session for the face or body typically lasts between 30 minutes to one hour, while vaginal treatments may take less time.

Results include gradual tightening, a lifting effect, and improved skin texture. For treatments like HIFU Body, localized fat reduction may also be observed.

Generally, significant results can be seen after a single session, but multiple sessions may be needed to optimize and extend the effects, depending on individual needs.

Side effects are rare but may include temporary redness, mild swelling, or tingling in the treated area.

HIFU treatments are suitable for most adults looking to tighten their skin or reduce fat without surgery. However, a preliminary assessment is recommended to ensure HIFU is appropriate.

The effects can last several months to a year or more, depending on the type of HIFU, lifestyle habits, and individual metabolism.

FAQ about Hydrapeel

Hydrapeel is a non-invasive deep cleansing treatment that combines exfoliation, impurity extraction, and skin hydration. It is designed to enhance skin radiance, texture, and overall health.

The treatment uses gentle suction technology and a series of serums to exfoliate the skin, remove impurities from pores, and infuse hydrating and nourishing active ingredients, providing deep and lasting hydration.

Benefits include deeply cleansed and hydrated skin, a brighter and more even complexion, and reduced appearance of enlarged pores and blackheads.

Hydrapeel is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive, oily, dry, and acne-prone skin. The treatment can be tailored to meet the specific needs of each skin type.

Typically, a session lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on skin type and specific requirements.

Hydrapeel is painless and well-tolerated. Most patients describe the experience as refreshing and enjoyable.

Patients usually notice smoother, softer skin, immediate radiance, and visible hydration. The glowing and refreshed appearance is noticeable after the first session.

A single session can provide a radiant result, but regular treatments (approximately once a month) are recommended for lasting effects and to address deeper skin concerns.

Hydrapeel is gentle and rarely causes side effects. In rare cases, mild redness may occur post-treatment, which typically resolves within a few hours.

Yes, although the skin appears naturally radiant after the treatment, makeup can be applied shortly afterward if desired.

FAQ about Pressotherapy

Pressotherapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses compression devices to stimulate lymphatic and venous circulation. It helps reduce water retention, improve blood flow, and alleviate heavy or swollen legs.

During the treatment, inflatable sleeves are placed around the legs, arms, or abdomen. These sleeves inflate and deflate in cycles, applying gentle pressure to stimulate lymphatic drainage.

Key benefits include reducing water retention, relieving heavy and swollen legs, improving circulation, and aiding in toxin elimination. It may also help diminish the appearance of cellulite.

A session typically lasts between 30 to 45 minutes, depending on individual needs and the areas being treated.

No, the treatment is painless. Patients usually experience a gentle, rhythmic pressure, which is often described as relaxing.

Pressotherapy is suitable for individuals with circulation issues, those suffering from water retention or heavy legs, and anyone looking to improve the appearance of their skin.

FAQ about Pressotherapy for Pregnant Women

Yes, pressotherapy can be suitable for pregnant women, particularly to alleviate heavy legs, reduce water retention, and improve circulation. However, it must be performed with caution and under the guidance of a healthcare professional.

During pregnancy, pressotherapy can help relieve swelling, reduce heavy legs, and stimulate circulation, contributing to overall comfort and well-being.

For pregnant women, only the legs should be treated. Abdominal sleeves are avoided to ensure no pressure is applied to the abdomen. Additionally, it is highly recommended to consult a doctor or specialist before beginning sessions.

Women with pregnancy complications, such as severe circulation disorders or a risk of phlebitis, should avoid this treatment. A medical consultation is essential to ensure the safety of pressotherapy.

In general, one session per week may be sufficient to relieve symptoms. However, the frequency should be adjusted based on the needs and tolerance of each patient.

FAQ about Lipolaser, Lipocavitation, and Radiofrequency

These three technologies offer a synergistic effect to:
• Reduce localized fat
• Firm and smooth the skin
• Stimulate collagen and improve skin elasticity
• Diminish the appearance of cellulite and skin irregularities

Results can vary depending on the individual and the areas treated. Generally, 6 to 12 sessions are recommended for optimal results, with a frequency of one to two times per week.

Side effects are rare. Some people may experience slight redness or mild swelling, which disappears after a few hours. The machine is designed to be gentle and non-invasive.

These treatments are suitable for people who want to reduce localized fat, firm the skin, or reduce cellulite without surgery. However, these treatments are not recommended for pregnant women, people with pacemakers or metal implants, and those suffering from certain illnesses (such as severe liver disorders).

Patients may notice a reduction in fat deposits, smoother skin, and improved firmness after several sessions. Results are optimized when combined with a healthy lifestyle.

With a balanced lifestyle, results can last for several months, or even longer. Maintenance sessions can be performed to extend the effects.

Lipolaser is a non-invasive technique that uses low-intensity laser beams to target and break down fat cells under the skin. The fat is then naturally eliminated by the lymphatic system.

Lipocavitation uses ultrasound to create cavitation bubbles that target fat cells. These bubbles implode, releasing the fat which is then eliminated by the body. This helps to reduce localized fat deposits.

Generally, one session per week may be sufficient to relieve symptoms. However, the frequency should be adapted according to the needs and tolerance of each patient.

Radiofrequency uses electromagnetic waves to heat the deep layers of the skin. This heating stimulates collagen production, firms the skin, and helps reduce cellulite and wrinkles.

Depending on the goals, each technology is applied specifically to the areas to be treated. A session may include a combination of lipolaser to reduce fat, lipocavitation for specific areas, and radiofrequency to firm the skin.

A session can last from 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the combination of treatments and the targeted areas.

The treatments are generally painless and well-tolerated. Patients often feel a gentle warmth during the radiofrequency and a slight tingling during lipocavitation.

FAQ about LED Therapy

LED therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses LED lights of different colors to improve the appearance and health of the skin. Each color targets a specific skin issue, such as acne, wrinkles, redness, or cell regeneration.
