— 01 / CONSULTATION
Fat cavitation.
A consultation and clinical assessment for stubborn, localised areas and body contour — using a non-invasive, ultrasound-based treatment, planned personally by an experienced practitioner. We start by understanding your goals and what’s on your mind, then talk through what’s realistic for you.
— 02 / ABOUT FAT CAVITATION
About fat cavitation.
Fat cavitation is a non-invasive treatment that uses ultrasound energy through the skin. It’s used to work on stubborn, localised areas to support body contour, which may help refine specific areas over a course, alongside a healthy lifestyle. It isn’t a weight-loss treatment, and individual results vary.
A consultation comes first. We assess the area and your suitability, talk honestly about whether — and how much — it may help, and explain what’s involved. No two plans are the same.
WHAT TO DISCUSS
- A clinical assessment of the areas you’d like to discuss
- Your goals and what you’d like to address
- How the treatment works and what’s involved
- Associated considerations and aftercare
ALSO COVERED
- Suitability, including any contraindications relevant to you
- Time to ask questions before any decision is made
- Timing, the course of sessions and ongoing care
- Individual outcomes may vary — this is a cosmetic treatment
— 03 / WHAT TO EXPECT
What to expect during your appointment.
Personalised consultation
Your appointment begins with a clinical discussion of your goals and expectations. The practitioner assesses the area and your suitability to support a personalised plan.
Preparation
Where appropriate, the area is prepared in line with clinical practice standards. Specific steps are discussed during your consultation, based on what’s being assessed.
Duration & recovery
Appointment length varies between individuals and is discussed with you. Most people can resume daily activities afterwards; recovery varies, and the practitioner explains what to expect.
Post-appointment care
Aftercare is personalised and discussed with you, so you know what to expect in the days that follow. Follow-up may be scheduled depending on your circumstances.
— 04 / ABOUT STUBBORN AREAS & CONTOUR
About stubborn areas and contour.
Small, stubborn areas can persist even with a healthy lifestyle. Refining contour is a gradual process, and how much it matters to you is entirely personal.
Whether it’s something to work on — and what approach might suit — depends on the area, your circumstances and what’s realistic to achieve. These factors are reviewed during your consultation. This section is general information only.
NON-INVASIVE
A comfortable, non-invasive treatment with no downtime for most people — often described as a warm massage.
NOT WEIGHT LOSS
It refines specific, stubborn areas — not general weight loss — and works best over a course with a healthy lifestyle.
REVIEWED WITH YOU
