About the Appointment

Body Slimming Basics of Body Contouring without Surgery invisa-RED™ is the latest innovation in body slimming technology used to remove fat from areas that are unresponsive to diet and exercise and reshape regions of your body very rapidly. Our innovative technology is a safe, non-invasive, and painless alternative to traditional fat reduction procedures. Each session can remove up to an inch of unwanted fat from any undesired problem area(s). Treatments are ideal for both men and women, eliminating the fatty areas that are unresponsive to diet and exercise. Most clients will see results after their first treatment. How it works Subcutaneous fat (fat cells between the skin and the muscle) is what your body utilizes when it needs energy. When the body metabolizes fat from the subcutaneous fat it will utilize the fat cells that are closest to the muscle first. These fat cells are located the farthest from the skin. Most people rarely utilize the fat from the cells closest to the skin. These cells are larger due to the amount of stored fat inside that is never metabolized in the body. Concentrated laser energy safely and painlessly activates the fat cells closest to the skin to open and stimulate the body’s metabolism to utilize the stored fat as energy. The fat that is not utilized for energy is then eliminated from the body through the lymphatic system naturally. How many treatments do I need? Treatments will vary depending on several factors including, size of the area, skin-tone and site location. Multiple treatments are recommended three times per week for optimal results. Treatment times can range between 15-20 minutes per session. Treatment sessions will vary from client to client. Is there any pain or downtime after treatments? No. Treatments are non-surgical, non-invasive, and pleasant. Clients will listen to music, use Facebook, text, or take a nap during treatments. Areas that can be treated Any area of the body that is non-responsive to diet and exercise can be reduced and contoured effectively. The most common areas are the waist, back, arms, legs, hips, thighs, buttocks, chin and neck. Cellulite Reduction Know About Cellulite Removal Treatment Cellulite is an extremely common condition that affects 90% of women and 20% of men both fit and obese. While unsightly, cellulite presents no major health risks but is one of the most difficult conditions to get rid of due to the variety of factors that can cause it. There are many misconceptions regarding how cellulite occurs and it is a widely debated topic within the medical and aesthetic communities. However, a large majority of experts do agree on several factors that have assisted us in developing a highly effective, long lasting solution to rid your clients of unattractive cellulite. Cellulite consists of enlarged adipose tissue or fat cells and is a type of connective tissue that is classified as a connective tissue disorder. Due to low collagen production, the connective tissue allows the fat cells to rise towards the skin. Because of this, cellulite (fat cells) bulge and push upwards towards the dermis giving the “orange peel” or “dimpling” effect at the dermis level in different grades. We place these into four grades or types: 0 – Smooth (no visible dimpling in the skin sitting or standing) 1 – Mild Visibility (slight dimpling when sitting, but not visible standing) 2 – Moderate Visibility (Dimpling is visible, even if slightly, but not lying down) 3 – Severe Visibility (heavy dimpling or pitting in the skin, sitting or lying down) There are several treatment levels depending on the grading. Treatments help increase with fresh blood, water, nutrients, and oxygen saturation in and around the area as well as helping to stimulate collagen and elastin production to tighten the connective tissue deficiency of the cellulite. invisa-RED™ provides multiple solutions: Stimulation of collagen production creating tighter skin and connective tissue reducing the appearance of cellulite. Size Reduction of fat cells Stimulation of the lymphatic system to remove fat and toxins Increased ATP synthase to boost metabolism Increased blood flow (vasodilation), water, and micro nutrients to the area Cellulite Treatments Safely smooth and eliminate cellulite as effectively as liposuction with no needles, no pain, and no downtime. invisa-RED™ treatments target the bumpy appearance of cellulite by restoring enlarged fat cells to a smaller size, resulting in smooth, tighter skin. How it works Cellulite is caused from weakened connective tissue and enlarged fat cells that are unresponsive to diet and exercise causing a dimpling effect. The pulsing laser light increases collagen production to strengthen the connective tissue and activates the enlarged fat cells to open, allowing the contents to leave the cell and be utilized in the body’s natural metabolism. The fat that is not utilized will then be eliminated through the lymphatic system. The result is a smooth cellulite free area of the body. Areas that can be treated Any area of the body can be treated. The most common areas are the back of legs, hips, thighs, buttocks, and waist. Stretch Mark Removal Learn More About Stretch Mark Removal Therapy Also known as striae distensae or simply as striae, is a type of scarring caused, literally, by rapid stretching of the skin beyond its elastic capacity. Micro tears develop and the blood vessels that lie under the skin show through usually creating a stretch mark that is red in color. If the body is slow to produce enough collagen to repair the area, the appearance of the stretch marks usually become darker in color. Pregnancy and rapid weight gain are the most common reasons stretch marks develop. Stretch marks affect both men and women, appearing as a result of the fast changes in weight, no matter if they are rapid losses or gains associated with a quick stretching of the skin. They are also influenced by the hormonal changes specific to puberty, pregnancy or the exposure of the body to hormone replacement therapies or muscle building. Therefore, people suffering from hormonal imbalance face greater risks of dealing with stretch marks. Among them, there are the teenagers, the pregnant women, people with the Cushing’s syndrome, the Marfan syndrome or suffering from adrenal disorders, but also people using corticosteroid medication. Sudden Gain/Loss of Weight in Adolescence Very often, during adolescence, individuals face intense hormone fluctuations associated with sudden gain or loss of weight that affect the skin’s elasticity, overstretching it and disrupting the normal collagen production. Some Facts about Stretch Marks The studies in this field show that, throughout their life, approximately 80 to 90 percent of women develop stretch marks of some degree, from adolescence to adulthood and motherhood. Men can also be affected by stretch marks, although, in their case, the targeted area of the body varies depending on where the fat is stored and how the muscles develop. Due to the significant hormonal changes they go through, pregnant women tend to develop stretch marks throughout the third trimester, when their skin stretches excessively in the abdominal area in order to accommodate the baby. How it works invisa-RED™ simultaneously triggers three processes necessary to repair and minimize visibility of the stretch mark effectively. Heats the epidermis to the necessary temperature required to stimulate the natural production of collagen, elastin, and fibroblasts to fill the wound or gap left in the epidermis and lighten the discoloration. Increases the circulation of fresh oxygenated blood to aid in the wound healing process. Skin tightening reduces the size and depth to create a smoother more uniform look and texture to the skin. Will I feel any pain during treatments? No. The treatments are quick, non-surgical, non-evasive and pleasant.
