Non-Surgical Liposuction – Your Top Questions Answered

Are exercise and healthy eating still not shedding the excess fat around your stomach, thighs, and buttocks? You’ve probably already considered surgical liposuction but are not too keen on going under the knife. Nirvana Beauty Laser Clinics is one of the very few clinics in Australia that offer proven non-surgical liposuction treatments which provide amazing results. Our Non-Surgical Liposuction and Face-lifting treatments involve no risks and no downtime. This means you can return to work on the same day and resume your daily activities.

How does it work?

Non-surgical liposuction is a 2-step process:

Step 1 – High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU):

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) works by making fat cells vibrate so much they start hitting against each other and eventually collapse. Approximately 30% of the fat released and cellular residues are then naturally processed by the body’s liver and lymphatic system and eliminated through the kidneys.

Step 2 – Radiofrequency:

Once the fat has been broken down in step 1 the fat cells are then liquified via radiofrequency, which is electricity used above a certain speed to generate warmth deep in the tissues, reaching up to 60 degrees celsius. Radiofrequency results in skin tightening and slimming by liquefying and melting fat as well as contracting collagen within the skin, and inducing new collagen formation. New collagen can take up to 6 months to form which is why your skin will continue to improve even months after your initial treatment, giving you a younger and more youthful appearance. Radiofrequency is one of the best treatments for face and body shaping and it is the only medically proven non-surgical alternative to face lifting and liposuction.

Once the fat has turned to liquid it is ready to be used as energy so we recommend going for a 20-minute walk right after your treatment to achieve added benefits. You will notice immediate tightening of the skin and centremetre loss after the first treatment.

Will this treatment work for me?

The majority of clients with weight concerns are good candidates for this treatment, however, it is important to know that this technology works on fat cells only and not on fluid retention. Unfortunately, there is no way of knowing if a client has fluid retention or fat cells in the areas of concern until treatment commences.

Will it hurt?

Most people find the treatment painless, and liken it to a warm deep tissue massage. The treatment is designed to accommodate your sensitivity and comfort level. It is normal to experience a warm sensation and mild soreness for a few hours post treatment. Overall, it is a very comfortable treatment.

Is it safe?

This technology has been studied extensively. Dr Fassi has worked tirelessly on perfecting non-invasive body-shaping treatments achieving astonishing results. Often described as a “magician” by his patients, Dr Fassi has been selected by Australian Women’s Weekly as the Australian Cellulite Expert and interviewed many times to provide specialist advice regarding non-surgical facelifting and liposuction.

Unlike surgical liposuction, there are no risks and no downtime, which is why people love it so much.

What areas can I treat?

Areas such as stomach, buttocks, thighs, flanks, and upper arms can be treated to reduce fat and tighten the skin. Areas such as the face, neck, and even breasts are suited for a lifting treatment. Our experienced and highly-qualified therapists will assess your area of concern and will make recommendations as to what treatments would be of most benefit to achieve the desired result.

How many treatments will I need?

Treatments are generally administered in a series of 4 to 6 sessions so that results are gradual and risks minimised. The length of treatment depends on which area of the body you are having done. Treatments can take anywhere from 40 minutes to 1 hour.
