1. What is the Cavi-sliming function used for?
The Cavi-slimming function has ultrasound cavitation technology of 40khz, and it is use for the reduction and treatment of localized fat and cellulite It is recommended to use only in specific areas of the body.
2. How does Ultrasound Cavitation Non-Surgical “Liposuction” work?
Ultrasound waves produced by the headpiece cause thousands of microscopic air bubbles to surround the lipocyte (fat cell) membranes and with vibration, these bubbles create enough pressure to cause the fat cells to break up instantly. The contents of the broken lipocytes are then moved through the lymphatic system to the liver and are safely metabolized and excreted from the body, assisted by drinking plenty of water both the day of treatment and on subsequent days. Results can be noticed after the first treatment with more significant improvement noticed within a few days. This treatment must be performed by a professional to following a safe protocols and discarding any contraindications...
3. How many treatments of cavitation are required ?

You will receive a training manual with all guidelines and known contraindications to use this Cavi-sliming o Ultra-contouring functions.
7. How does "Ultra-contouring" function work?
The function of Ultracontouring combines the technologic of sonic waves with red light photons. This treatment is indicated to aid: post-operative (edema and bruising), anti-cellulite, localized adiposity, mesotherapy and hidrolipoclasia
The ultrasonic waves allow:
•Permeate the skin for penetration of active ingredients
•Emulsify fat through continuous emission of acoustic waves.
The function of photon has a monochromatic red light that increases the activity of keratinocytes, thus stimulating the skin cell cycle. Among the benefits of the red led light on the skin:
•Stimulates and enhances cellular activity.
•Accelerates the penetration of the active ingredients in the dermal-epidermal layer.
•Increased production of collagen and elastin.
•Improves circulation.
•Recovers skin elasticity.
•Skin rejuvenation.
•Oxygenation of the stratum corneum.
8. When to choose between Cavislimming or Ultracontouring?
If you are going to treat a thick adipose tissue fold exceeding 3 cm of thick, use Cavi-sliming. If you are working more superficial adipose tissues or want to penetrate active ingredients use Ultra-contouring.
9. How long is a full treatment session?
Treatment times vary depending on the areas being treated and whether or not you are doing just Fat Cavitation, just Radio Frequency, or both. A typical session will last in between one hour to one and a half hours. This includes consultation time, body and weight measurements, before pictures, treatment and after pictures and measurements.
10. What type of results can I expect with Cavislimming or Ultracontouring?
Both treatments usually produce immediate results. Most clients experience between ¼” to 3” loss after a single session. However, more significant results will be noticed after the second and third treatment. Results continue to improve after subsequent visits and can be long lasting. But it is important that clients observe a healthy diet and exercise frequently to keep fat from returning.
11. Can I lose weight with Cavislimming or Ultracontouring?

The Cavidermis System offers multiple functions allowing you to treat the face and the body.
This equipment has three Radiofrequency heads :
2- RF is bipolar radiofrequency for treating the the face.
3 -RF is tripolar radiofrequency for the body .
8 - vacuum is multipolar radiofrequency head with vacuum for specific areas of the body.
17. What is the Aesthetic Radiofrequency ?
Aesthetics RF is an electromagnetic waves having electric and magnetic properties. These electromagnetic waves produce a controllable heating of the dermis and subdermal layers, selectively acting on adipose tissue and fibroblasts , producing a shortening of the collagen fibers and the production of new collagen . RF generates an electric field that changes from positive to negative, this rotational movement of molecules generates heat on the tissues.
18. What are the contraindications for Cavidermis Radiofrequency Treatment?
You will receive a manual explaining the Cavidermis RF treatment. But overall radiofrequency is contraindicated in cases of pregnancy and lactation , severe heart disease, coagulation disorders , connective tissue diseases and neuromuscular , cancer, recent collagen implants , patients with metal implants , pacemakers or cardioverter, defibrillator or cases of severely overweight.

Yes, they are safe, comfortable, and non-invasive with typically no side effects. The ultrasound energy is designed to target only fatty tissues beneath the skin, and does not affect the blood vessels, nerves and connective tissues. Radio frequency is a radiation that travels in waves lower than the frequency emitted from a microwave which heat fat cells allowing fat to leak out. Neither treatments require anesthesia, leaves scars, uses injections, nor are there pills to swallow or incisions.
23. Are the Cavidermis’ treatments painful?
No, the treatments are virtually painless. A slight tingling sensation may sometimes be felt during the treatment but this is not uncomfortable.
