BODY SCULPTING
BODY SCULPTING uses safe and proven approaches to manage the fat accumulation in hard to fix places on your body, like the mummy tummy, bat wings, love handles and saddlebags, by removing fat cells permanently as well as firming skin and toning muscles.
All Body Sculpting treatments require the completion of a pre-consultaion form to ensure that you are a suitable candidate and that no contraindications exist.
Lipolytic Injections
Are you tired of those stubborn fat deposits that seem to have taken permanent residence on your thighs, hips, and buttocks? Lipogon is here to help you reclaim your confidence with a non-invasive solution.
Our treatment involves mostly painless micro-injections that target specific fat layers beneath the skin. One of the key active ingredients in Lipogon is Phosphatidylcholine (PPC), a component of Soy Lecithin. PPC has the remarkable power to permanently remove fat.
During the application, these active substances work by "cracking" the membranes of fat cells in the targeted area, causing their contents to be released into the neighboring tissue. From there, the fat is transported through the bloodstream to the liver, where it is metabolized and eliminated from the body.
Areas That Can Be Treated:
Fat around the chin area
Fat around the waist
Inner thighs
Abdomen
Upper arms
Knees and ankles
Contraindications:
While Lipogon is a non-invasive procedure, patients can typically return to their normal daily activities almost immediately. However, there are a few precautions to keep in mind:
Avoid hot showers or baths for the first 8 hours after treatment.
While Lipogon is mostly painless, patients may experience some mild discomfort from the injection, such as:
Swelling
Redness
Light bruising
Burning sensations
The Results:
Patients usually begin to notice results approximately 2 weeks after receiving the treatment. However, the timing can vary depending on factors like age, skin type, weight, and lifestyle. For optimal results, a follow-up treatment is recommended 6-8 weeks later.

Fat Freezing / Cryoliposysis
Cryolipolysis, commonly referred to as "Fat Freezing" by clients, uses freezing temperatures to break down fat cells. The fat cells are particularly susceptible to the effects of cold, unlike other types of cells so while fat cells freeze, the skin and other structures are spared from injury.
A 2009 study looked at the clinical efficacy of cryolipolysis. The researchers found that cryolipolysis reduced the treated fat layer by as much as 25 percent. The results were still present six months after the treatment.
Frozen, dead fat cells are excreted out of the body through the liver & lymphatic system over the weeks following a treatment, revealing full results of fat loss after two to three months. And usually, only 1-3 treatments may be needed - depending on personal goals and the thickness of the resistant fat. Suitable for all ages and skin types.
A complete treatment takes 60 minutes and can be repeated monthly on the selected area until the desired results are achieved.
Cavitation
Cavitation uses ultrasonic waves to rupture fat cells and allowing the body in this way, to safely remove the waste via the lymphatic system and liver. As with cryolipolysis, the treatment only targets the fat cells, with no effect on the surrounding organs and tissue.
In both 2007 and 2019 a study into the effectiveness of Cavitation, saw all the participants who received the treatment lose body fat in the treated areas.
Cavitation requires between 4-8 session, spaced 4 days apart to achieve the best results.
Requires the completion of a pre-consultation form.
Radio Frequency
Radio Frequency body contouring is an excellent way to tighten the skin after fat loss treatments or weight loss procedures. It focuses on providing you with smoother and more even skin by boosting collagen synthesis and allowing the skin to be rejuvenated. This also means improvement of stretch marks.
As an added bonus it is also clinically proven to reduce the appearance of cellulite!
Radio Frequency is a highly recommended add on to any of the body sculpting treatments, should you wish to tighten and tone your skin.
LaserLipo
LaserLipo is an alternative to liposuction with no pain, no needles and no downtime. The device emits low levels of laser energy, which creates a chemical signal in the fat cells, breaking down the stored triglycerides into free fatty acids and glycerol and releasing them through channels in the cell membranes. It basically turns your fat cells from grapes into raisins.
The results are natural-looking and will appear gradually. In a randomized, controlled study, patients experienced an average loss of 2-12 cm from their waist, hip and thighs in just one session.
EMSculpting & Diathermy
Muscles are effectively the fat burners of the body and the better shape they are in, the better they can perform that function.
EMSculpting treatments aim to do just that. It stimulates hundreds of muscle contractions in a targeted area, such as the belly, imitating the effect which you will get from doing crunches, for example. (Obviously without the cardio benefits). The result is an intense workout which you will actually feel the next day :-)
Our machine can use up to 24 pads, meaning you can cover a large area and has nine selectable programs designed to slim, tone and firm targeted body areas. It also has a Lymph drainage function, making it the perfect add on to your Cavitation and LaserLipo sessions, especially when combined with the Diathermy heat wraps.
Cellulite & Detox Wrap
Remove toxins and improve circulation with this active body wrap treatment which can can also include a Diathermy add on, to heat things up and help you shed even more centimeters.
