Cavitation liposuction is a modern, non-invasive aesthetic medicine procedure that effectively reduces excess fat and improves body contours without the use of a scalpel.
The cavitation liposuction procedure uses the phenomenon of cavitation, i.e., the breakdown of fat cells using ultrasound waves of a specific power and frequency.
Unlike traditional surgical liposuction, the procedure does not require recovery time or a long period of exclusion from daily activities, which is why it is becoming increasingly popular.
Cavitation liposuction is a procedure that involves breaking down fat cells in a selected area of the body (e.g., abdomen, thighs, hips) using an external source of ultrasound with a specific power and frequency. Ultrasound waves generate microbubbles in the intercellular fluid, which leads to damage to the membranes of fat cells and their breakdown.
The triglycerides released in this way are then transported by the lymphatic system and excreted in metabolic processes. The treatment also supports blood and lymph circulation and stimulates cell metabolism, which helps reduce cellulite and improve skin elasticity.
Accent Prime is a modern platform that uses high-frequency ultrasound and radio waves to break down fat cells even more effectively while firming the skin. The Accent Prime treatment is based on the synergistic action of two technologies—ultrasound (cavitation) and radio waves (radiofrequency)—which not only reduces fat tissue but also improves skin tone and elasticity at the same time.
The Accent Prime treatment is non-invasive, comfortable, requires no recovery time, and can be used on various parts of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, hips, and arms. This makes it an excellent alternative to traditional surgical liposuction, allowing you to achieve a sculpted, firm figure in a safe and modern way.
Cavitation liposuction is recommended for people who:
Cavitation liposuction is considered a safe procedure, but in some cases the following may occur:
These symptoms usually disappear within a few hours after the procedure and do not require any special recovery period.
The cavitation liposuction procedure is completely painless and does not require anesthesia. First, a specialist qualifies the patient for the procedure, ruling out any contraindications. Then, the head of the device emitting ultrasound waves is moved over the selected area of the body.
Ultrasound waves break down fat cells, and their contents are transferred to the lymphatic system. To speed up the process of removing the released fats, it is recommended to have a lymphatic massage after the treatment, drink plenty of water, and engage in moderate physical activity.
The entire procedure takes approximately 30–60 minutes, depending on the area of the body. The treatment can be repeated up to twice a week.
The effects of cavitation liposuction are often visible after the first treatment, although the best results are achieved with a series of treatments performed at intervals of 7–10 days. The main effects of the treatment include:
The effects of the treatment are permanent, provided that you maintain a healthy, balanced diet and physical activity.
