NON SURGICAL FACE LIFTS Radio
Frequency Facials are considered among the most effective non-surgical procedures available today. Via this treatment, radio waves penetrate the outer skin layers and deliver heat energy to the muscles and tissues beneath. This heat stimulates collagen production, and that, in turn, triggers tissue contraction. The overall result is tighter, brighter skin and a significant reduction in sags and wrinkles. RF facials go deep into the dermis providing immediate, longer lasting results and accelerating cell renewal in the skin. It requires little or no recovery time. Skin may have redness or swelling for 1-2 hrs and up to 24 hours.
The radiofrequency facelift has been approved by the FDA as a non-surgical treatment for wrinkles and facial skin imperfections. This treatment requires no downtime. Best of all, results are immediately noticeable, and they become even more so in the weeks following the treatment as the build-up of collagen effects further skin contraction. It is non-invasive and easy and is a great alternative to chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and laser skin resurfacing.
The full face procedure is about one hour long and you will not need any anesthetic. You will feel some warmth in the skin and perhaps a prickly sensation but not really any discomfort.
At first the skin may look pink or flushed but fades to normal within hours. Best results require 6 treatments. (Max 2 times a week.)
Some clients may require more treatments (up to 12) to achieve optimal results.
Results of this procedure can last 2 years depending on the age (ideally, mid-30s to late
50s), skin quality and home care of the client.
BODY SCULPTING
This non-invasive, non-surgical form of liposuction uses radio frequency waves to promote the metabolism of fat cells, destroy
‘orange peel’ cellulite and to firm skin and improve elasticity. The effects of this procedure are long lasting. This process is called
cavitation.
Fat released by radiofrequency and cavitation can be oxidized for energy in the muscles and other tissues.
Both ultrasound cavitation and radiofrequency stimulate the release of fat, in the form of triglycerides, by the fat cells. These triglycerides are taken up by the lymphatic vessels and the veins and end up in various body tissues (such as the muscles) where they can be burned for energy.
Ultrasound Cavitation is a new, revolutionary
European fat removal technique that does NOT involve surgery – there is no need for anesthesia, any hospital stay or time off work.. Ultrasound
Cavitation causes tons of microscopic air bubbles to surround the fat cell membranes and with its resonant frequency, the bubbles cause a high enough pressure to cause the fat cells to break up instantly. Furthermore, there is a breakdown of the fibers through mechanical action. Some content of adipocytes is metabolized by the liver and eliminated in the urine, so it’s always recommended to drink plenty of water both the day of service and in the following days.
Tripolar RF technology offers new scientific development in fat and cellulite reduction treatments, body sculpting, anti-aging and skin tightening. It involves applying electromagnetic
(non-ionizing) waves to the body in order to return physiological processes that have slowed down to normal. These waves carry heat and energy deep into the skin creating an endothermic effect that has a positive effect on the lymphatic and vascular systems and on the adipose-connective structures.
Body Sculpting and
Facelift
6-8 treatments are recommended.
Ideal Package
1 treatment per week* for 6 weeks is preferred.
For Body Sculpting, additional treatments may be required to achieve desired results. *Max 2 treatments per week.
Who is not a good candidate?
If you are pregnant, have cancer, heart disease or coronary artery dysfunction of the heart, blood pressure unbalanced, if you have arrhythmias or irregular heart rhythm, or have a pacemaker treatments will NOT be performed.
What are the contraindications?
Individuals with cardiac and vascular diseases, pacemakers, and women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should avoid this treatment. A doctor’s certificate may be required with certain individuals.
Are the results long-term?
Facelift : Results can last 2 years or longer if proper regular skin care services, good home care and a healthy lifestyle are maintained.
However, we cannot stop the natural aging that affects your appearance.
Body Sculpting: The results are maintained, especially when combined with exercise and proper nutrition. While fat and cellulite will not return where it was destroyed, it can form in new areas…for this reason, we recommend maintenance visits.

Main Actions
Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) can directly affect the lymphatic system and more indirectly, all body fluids, including the venous and arterial blood circulation.
MLD can also affect the immune system, the autonomic nervous system, and through techniques like lympho-fascia release, all of the musculoskeletal system, the body framework.
1 - To activate fluid circulation
Activation of circulation of lymph, blood capillaries and veins, interstitial liquids, cerebrospinal and synovial fluid, etc.
Applications: help to reroute stagnant fluid, edema, primary and secondary lymphedema, in skin, muscles, viscera, joints, cranial sutures, chambers of the eyes, and cochlea, etc.
2 – To drain
A-Toxins: as part of treatment to promote tissue generation, , for example, h=where there are scars, stretch marks, or wrinkles; or where the client has had fracture or surgery, we also use facial MLD for anti-aging applications.
B- Fat – most every time fat content is present in the body lymphatic system vessels are present to help evacuate them
C – Proteins MLD helps eliminate protein-rich fluid from the extracellular tissue, helping reabsorption of edema
3- To Stimulate the Immune System
Increased lymph flow carries more antigens to the lymph nodes, increasing antibody/antigen contact.
The is can help the immune system in the following ways
LDT can be utilized for preventative action
Lymphatic drainage techniques have been found to help with chronic and sub-acute inflammatory processes, e. g. chronic fatigue syndrome, autoimmune diseases, arthritis, bronchitis, sinusitis, tonsillitis, laryngitis, acne, eczema, etc
4 – To stimulate the parasympathetic system
Stimulation of the lymphatics tends to increase parasympathetic and diminish sympathetic tone, the “fight or flight; response. This can be very helpful in dealing with: stress, depression or sleeping disorders
5 – to reduce pain
MLD alleviates tissue fluid stagnation and inhibits type C nociceptors ,which trigger pain. It is effective in dealing with some kinds of chronic pain
6 – to reduce muscles spasm:
Skeletal or smooth muscle spasms, constipation, etc
BODY SYSTEMS AFFECTED BY MLD
1 - angiology, cardiology, lymphology
2 - dentistry, orthodontics
3 - dermatology (skin)
4 - esthetics
5 - general/metabolic
6 - gerontology/geriatric
7 - gynecology
8 - gastroenterology
9- infectious diseases
10- neurology
11- ophthalmology
12- orthopedics (bones, tendons, surgery)
13- otorhinolaryngology (ear, nose, throat)
14- pediatrics
15- pneumonology – allergology
16- rheumatology: disorders of the bone/articulations, musculoskeletal system and connective tissue
17- sports medicine
18- surgery-pre and post procedure
19- urology, nephrology (bladder, kidneys)
