Cavitation is popular in medicine and cosmetology. This is a phenomenon in which cavities filled with gas are formed in a liquid. Numerous reviews before and after prove the effectiveness of the procedure, especially in cosmetology.
For the best results in the fight against body fat, it is important to listen to a specialist who will give helpful advice to prevent complications or side effects.
What is cavitation
Cavitation is an innovative method in cosmetology, with which you can easily and painlessly say goodbye to fatty deposits, cellulite, extra pounds forever. A couple of sessions will help to reduce the size of the waist, and after a full course, the body becomes noticeably perfect.
The method is based on the effect on fat cells with low frequency ultrasonic waves. Extra pounds are burned due to the destruction of the cell membrane. Other cells (epidermis, vascular endothelium, muscle fibrils) remain intact due to the high coefficient of elasticity.
The price of one session depends on the area to be treated on the body:
| Name | Cost, rub.) |
| Stomach | 1000-1300 |
| Buttocks | 4500-5000 |
| Arms | 3000-3500 |
| Hips | 4000-7000 |
| Knees | 800-1000 |
| Waist | 1250-1500 |
| Cheeks | 3540-5000 |
| The chin | 2550-5000 |
The essence of ultrasonic cavitation is as follows:
- Low frequency ultrasound waves act on fat cells (adipocytes).
- A small bubble forms inside each of them. Its volumes are gradually increasing.
- The softened fat expands, there is little space for it. The cell membrane bursts. The fat is displaced by the formed bubbles.
Large fat cells are more exposed to the powerful effect of high voltage. The bulk of the decay products (90%) enter the liver and lymphatic system. The remaining 10% is absorbed into the bloodstream through the vessels and transformed into glucose.
There are 2 types of cavitation:
| Name | Description |
| Hydrodynamic | It occurs when the local pressure in the liquid decreases, which leads to the formation of bubbles or cavities. The decrease occurs due to the increase in fluid velocity. |
| Acoustic (ultrasonic cavitation) | It is the result of a high intensity acoustic wave passing through liquids, which also leads to the formation of cavities with gas. |
In medicine and cosmetology, ultrasonic cavitation is mainly used to combat excess body fat and correct the body.
Advantages and disadvantages
Cavitation (reviews before and after the procedure are left by numerous representatives of the fair sex, who have already tried this innovative method of fighting body fat) is carried out by professional cosmetologists in specialized beauty salons.
Acoustic liposuction has positive and negative aspects:

Ultrasonic cavitation is also used in combination with other cosmetic skin care procedures. After removing fat cells, new ones are not restored. An examination before the procedure will help prevent side effects.
It is also important to follow the recommendations of the cosmetologist after each session (adhere to a diet, play sports).
Acoustic liposuction at home is allowed if you purchase a special gel and device. Before starting the course, it is recommended to consult with a beautician who will tell you how to do the procedure yourself correctly in order to prevent serious complications.
Indications
Before starting therapy, it is recommended to undergo a complete medical examination and visit a specialist. The beautician will tell you when ultrasonic cavitation is needed and who should not resort to acoustic liposuction.
Body correction is indicated for people who have the following problems:
- loose skin on the back, arms, thighs, buttocks and abdomen;
- cellulite of varying degrees;
- wen, lipoma;
- various problems and defects after liposuction, which was performed by surgery;
- disturbed material exchange.
Body cavitation is also recommended for those who have folds of fat on the body, deposits on the knees, sides and abdomen. Positive and negative reviews before and after the procedure are direct evidence that it should be approached with the utmost responsibility. Otherwise, the chance of serious complications and consequences increases.
Contraindications
Examination by a doctor and consultation with a beautician are a certain stage in preparation for ultrasonic cavitation. The specialist will tell you how acoustic liposuction is performed and what is the advantage of the procedure. He will conduct an examination and tell you which parts of the body require correction in the first place.
A complete medical examination will be needed to make sure that there are no serious contraindications, which include the following states:
- the period of bearing the baby and breastfeeding;
- renal and pulmonary failure, hepatitis;
- heart failure;
- purulent and inflammatory processes on the skin;
- chronic diseases of the digestive system;
- osteoporosis;
- thrombosis;
- thrombophlebitis;
- damage to the skin in the place where the procedure is planned;
- poor blood clotting;
- pathological changes in the functioning of the immune system;
- fibroids, erosion of the cervix;
- malignant or benign neoplasms;
- pathological processes in the ovaries;
- obesity of 2-3 degrees;
- umbilical hernia;
- high blood pressure (hypertension);
- chronic diseases of infectious origin at the stage of exacerbation;
- diabetes mellitus (uncompensated stages).
It is not recommended to visit ultrasound cavitation if there are implants, pacemakers. Ultrasonic waves can affect the operation of devices in a negative way. The same goes for scars, scars or tattoos on the body in the treated area.
You should also postpone the procedure if the person has taken non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or aspirin 10 days before the session. The procedure is new and not yet fully understood, so the list of contraindications may be longer. That is why it is important to follow all the beautician's instructions and follow the regimen after each session.
What examinations need to be done
Cavitation (reviews before and after are different, since the method is innovative and gaining popularity) is carried out after a complete medical examination. It is important to exclude the risk of side effects and the presence of contraindications.
| Name | Description |
| Bioimpedancemetry | Comprehensive examination of the skin, muscle structure, subcutaneous fat. Bioimpedancemetry will help to select the most optimal parameters for ultrasonic cavitation. Also determine what additional methods are suitable for effective body correction. |
| General blood analysis | A detailed blood test to assess the level of hemoglobin and blood cells. Deviations indicate the development of certain diseases. |
| Cardiogram | The examination allows you to assess the work of the cardiovascular system, to identify violations. |
| Fluorography | Chest X-ray. |
You will also need to conduct a biochemical blood test, which will eliminate the inflammatory process in the body or other diseases.
Training
If there are no contraindications to ultrasonic cavitation, you can start preparing for the procedure, adhering to the recommendations of cosmetologists:
- Give up bad habits (alcoholic beverages, tobacco products) 3 days before the start of the course.
- For 4 days before the first procedure, exclude fried, fatty, salty and sweet dishes from the menu. They contain substances that slow down the metabolic process.
- Drink 1.5 liters of clean liquid per day.
- On the day of the session, it is recommended to cleanse the skin with peeling, so that the lipolytic gel better penetrates the skin.
It is recommended to drink 1 liter of still water immediately before the ultrasonic cavitation procedure. Do not ignore the recommendations of a cosmetologist, since there is a high probability of complications or side effects.
Procedure
Cavitation (reviews before and after the procedure are left by real girls who visited the salon in order to correct the body) is an innovative method and an expensive means to combat body fat. Cavitation liposuction is performed with a special device that provides handpieces and emits low-frequency ultrasound (38 kHz).
All information about the course of the session is displayed on a special screen. The device also has a built-in memory that allows you to store information about therapy programs. More often women resort to cavitation, sometimes men turn to salons.
| Impact area | Description |
| Body | The procedure helps to remove excess fat deposits that hang over the body. At the waist, the minimum amount of fat loss is 3-4 cm. The effect lasts up to 2 years. |
| Stomach | To remove excess fat from the abdomen, you will need to go through 5-8 sessions of ultrasonic cavitation. According to the results, not only the volume is reduced, the skin becomes lighter and tighter, and the tone rises. The sides, waist and navel are processed. |
| Face | After ultrasonic cavitation, bags under the eyes disappear on the face, the eyelids look tight. The chin is also processed. The procedure does not leave scars or marks, everything is painless. |
Features of the application of ultrasonic cavitation:
- The device allows you to use various programs of ultrasound exposure.
- The duration of one session takes 45-60 minutes.
- Persistent results in one area can be achieved thanks to 3-6 sessions. The interval between them is 5-8 days.
- To accelerate the destruction of fat cells in the body, it is recommended to combine ultrasonic cavitation with other cosmetic procedures (lymphatic drainage, pressotherapy, ozone therapy, mesotherapy, thermolifting).
After the first session, the results are noticeable: the waist is reduced by 3 cm, the body contour is restored, and the skin structure is improved. Most often, ultrasonic cavitation is performed on the abdomen and thighs. These areas are the most problematic.
Each procedure provides for a specific algorithm:
- The skin on the treated area is cleaned and a special gel is applied.
- The beautician selects the required program and attachment. All individual characteristics of a person (gender, skin physiology, body area) are taken into account.
- The session lasts from 20 minutes to 1 hour.
- After the completion of the procedure, the remaining gel is removed from the skin.
During the session, the person relaxes, feels warmth and a slight tingling sensation. If there is discomfort, it is important to tell the technician to lower the power of the device.
Recovery after
Cavitation (reviews before and after the procedure prove the effectiveness of the method in the fight against body fat) requires strict adherence to all the rules and recommendations of the cosmetologist. It is important to remember about physical activity so that the result after each session was more noticeable.
Gymnastics and sports activities speed up the metabolic process, improve blood circulation, which prevents the appearance of new fat cells.
Specialist recommendations to follow after acoustic liposuction:
- Do not use body cosmetics for 2 months. All you can do is aloe or a moisturizer that has a cooling effect.
- Lymphatic drainage is recommended after ultrasonic cavitation.
- The skin should be washed with extremely cool water.
- For several days after ultrasonic cavitation, it is strictly forbidden to eat seafood, spicy food, fried and fatty foods.
- You should refrain from drinking alcohol for 3 weeks after the procedure.
- Continue drinking clean water every day, at least 2 liters.
- Carry out self-massage 2 r. a week to improve lymphatic drainage.
When performing ultrasonic liposuction on the face, the beautician recommends using a sunscreen. You should choose a product for your skin type. It is necessary to constantly moisturize it.
How long will the result last
It is important that the woman, after each session, adheres to the daily and rest regimen, eat properly and fully, and also maintain an active lifestyle. Otherwise, the risk of recurrence of body fat increases. The effect of ultrasonic cavitation persists for many years.
In one session, the specialist removes up to 15 cm3 of fatty deposits, the size of the waist is 3-5 cm. During the next week, the effect of ultrasonic cavitation increases. Blood circulation is restored, fibroblasts are stimulated. Improves the elasticity and tension of the skin on the treated area of the body. Flabbiness and sagging are eliminated.
Strengthen the effect and speed up the process of removing decay products after fat cells by the circulatory and lymphatic system the following procedures will help:
| Name | Description |
| Pressotherapy | Hardware type of massage.Under the influence of the created pressure, fluid and metabolic products are removed from the intercellular space, as well as blood and lymph vessels. Pressure decreases, blood vessels dilate, which leads to improved blood circulation and activation of metabolic processes. |
| Wrapping | An effective cosmetic procedure that helps to fight excess pounds. Post-cavitation wrap removes excess fat deposits, liquid and other metabolic products. |
| Myostimulation | A procedure during which impulse currents are used. They restore the natural function of muscles, tissues, nerves and internal organs. In modern cosmetology, myostimulation is used for body shaping. Thanks to the procedure, muscle mass is strengthened and increased. |
| RF lifting | Radio wave skin tightening is a unique technique for skin rejuvenation. There is no surgical intervention. The skin is exposed to electrical radio waves. |
After ultrasonic cavitation, it is recommended to also carry out apparatus vacuum or manual drainage massage.
Possible complications
If the recommendations of a specialist are not followed after ultrasonic cavitation the risk of serious side effects increases:
| Name | Description |
| Body temperature rises | Fever can be general or local (manifests itself in the part of the body where cavitation was carried out). |
| Vascular mesh | The first symptom that indicates an increased risk of developing varicose veins in the future. |
| Zhiroviki | After the procedure, the localization of adipose tissue occurs in any part of the body. |
| Liver disorders | The human body stores and removes toxins from the body. The increased load can disrupt its functioning. |
| Inflammatory process | A dangerous side effect that affects the tissues and internal organs of the human body. The pathological process is a consequence of the rapid destruction of toxins. Their remnants quickly spread throughout the body through the circulatory system. |
| Pancreatic stool | During ultrasonic liposuction, the pancreas and intestines are heavily stressed. The process of producing a special enzyme, lipase, is impaired. It is necessary for the breakdown of complex fats into simple ones, which the liver processes. |
| Dehydration | In the process of destruction of fat cells (adipocytes), the amount of intracellular fluid is significantly reduced. The residues are absorbed by the circulatory and lymphatic system, protecting the body from toxins. |
| Burn | During each session, a specific area of the body is treated for a long time. Heating tissues to high temperatures leads to protein denaturation, which leads to burns. |
Hematomas, dehydration, soreness during or after the procedure are also side effects of the procedure. The same goes for local hyperpigmentation.
Each method of losing weight has advantages and disadvantages, as evidenced by numerous reviews before and after procedures. Ultrasonic cavitation is a new technology, therefore it is only gaining popularity. It is important to adhere to all the recommendations of a cosmetologist so that the fight against body fat passes without serious consequences.

Cavitation and nutrition:
The procedure suited me and the result pleased me.Very visible in the abdomen and thighs! But the pleasure is certainly not cheap.
I did 1 session, I did not feel any side effects, well, how do they write here that it took 3-4 cm, alas, no. At the same level, see. Maybe he will leave the 2nd session. (I did it together with RF-lifting.)
Now I started to undergo cavitation on the stomach and lpg massage together. The result from one session is 1 cm.Further there will be more
I decided to do this procedure, after the session the liquid comes out as if I was taking diuretics, well, minus 1 cm after each procedure, the procedure is not cheap 1100-60 minutes, the cosmetologist said 6-8 procedures need to be done
I did 4 procedures. There is no result yet.
I did a cavitation session and a Russian lifting session, the result was minus 5 cm at the waist. I did the same on the hips minus 2 cm. I felt great. This procedure is worth the money. Recommend.
