The main benefits of a cavitation treatment are:
- It is a non-invasive, painless treatment with no side effects.
- The use of low frequencies, above 40 kilohertz (Khz), avoids damaging other tissues that are not adipose.
- No sedative or anesthesia is needed for its application.
- The results are visible from the first sessions.
- It is a very flexible technique and can be applied to many areas of the body.
- Helps treat the skin where it is applied, improving the elasticity and tone of the treated areas.
- The technique covers both the superficial and deeper layers of the skin.
- The elimination of waste is carried out by natural processes of the body.
- It is very effective in eliminating cellulite and orange peel skin.
- The breakdown of fatty acids helps improve metabolism and overall health.
Precautions and contraindications of cavitation
Although it is a non – invasive treatment and in principle it is innocuous, certain precautions must be taken. These machines are not designed to be applied to sensitive parts, such as the genitals, lymph nodes or the head.
It is also not recommended to apply this treatment in the following cases:
- You often suffer from skin infections.
- You have a pacemaker or suffer from a heart condition.
- You are undergoing treatment and you are overcoming some febrile or infectious process.
- You suffer from circulation problems.
- You are undergoing treatment for cholesterol control.
- You have diabetes or liver failure.
- You are pregnant or have an IUD.
- You suffer from osteoporosis.
- You have thyroid problems or any metabolic problem.
- You suffer from hypertension.
- You have a serious illness, such as asthma or epilepsy.
- Presence of cancer and chemotherapy treatments.
Cavitation machines for professionals
The models destined for the professional market include many more configuration options to cover a greater variety of treatments.
In addition to the specific applicators (or hand pieces) for cavitation, it is common to include others for radiofrequency and vacuum. Thus, the machine covers a greater variety of treatments and allows better amortization of its cost view more.
It is important to keep in mind that these cavitation and ultra cavitation devices are intended to be operated by an aesthetic specialist who has been trained in this type of therapy. But its use and technique are very simple.
Simply select the applicator to use according to the area in question, set the intensity and time of the treatment. You can even set the preset programs that the cavitation machine already has.
The technique is learned quickly from the first sessions. These cavitation sessions usually last about 40 minutes, so that it is effective and results can be obtained.
Home use of cavitation machines
A home cavitation machine is not much different from a professional one. They work with the same frequencies, although they are designed for sessions of shorter duration.
They usually have preset programs with durations of 15 to 20 minutes, where you do not have to configure any additional parameters.
It is always important to read and study well all the documentation and manuals that the manufacturer includes in this type of device.
