Sculpt. Smooth. Tighten. Define.
Looking for a non-surgical way to improve the appearance of stubborn areas and create smoother, firmer-looking skin?
At Desired Image MedSpa, our body contouring treatments combine ultrasonic cavitation and skin-tightening technology to help improve body contours, reduce the appearance of localized fat, and enhance the look of loose or crepey skin — without surgery or injections. Treatments are customized based on your body, skin quality, treatment area, and individual goals.
What Is Ultrasonic Cavitation?
Ultrasonic cavitation is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that uses ultrasound energy to target localized areas of unwanted fat beneath the skin.
The treatment is designed for body contouring rather than overall weight loss
It may be used to help improve the appearance of areas such as:
- Abdomen
- Waist
- Love handles
- Back
- Bra area
- Thighs
- Hips
- Buttocks
- Upper arms
How Does Ultrasonic Cavitation Work?
During treatment, ultrasound energy is delivered to the targeted area.
The treatment is intended to disrupt targeted fat cells, after which cellular debris is gradually processed and cleared by the body.
Because results develop gradually, a series of treatments is typically recommended rather than expecting a dramatic change from one appointment.
How Does Skin Tightening Work?
Depending on the technology used, non-surgical skin-tightening treatments deliver controlled energy into the deeper layers of the skin.
This controlled energy can stimulate the body’s natural collagen-remodeling response.
Over time, this may help the skin appear:
- Firmer
- Smoother
- Tighter
- More toned
- Less crepey
Skin tightening can be especially helpful after weight changes, pregnancy, aging, or other changes that affect skin firmness.
Why Combine Cavitation With Skin Tightening?
Cavitation and skin tightening address two different concerns.
Cavitation focuses primarily on improving the appearance of localized fat and body contours.
Skin tightening focuses on improving the appearance of skin laxity, firmness, and texture.
Combining the two can provide a more comprehensive body-contouring treatment for appropriate candidates.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
Popular treatment areas include:
Abdomen
Improve the appearance of localized abdominal fullness while helping the skin look smoother and firmer.
Waist & Love Handles
Help contour the waist and improve the appearance of stubborn areas along the sides.
Back & Bra Area
Target localized fullness around the upper and lower back.
Thighs
Improve the appearance of inner or outer thigh contours while addressing skin firmness.
Arms
Help improve the appearance of localized fullness and mild skin laxity on the upper arms.
Buttocks
Improve the appearance of skin texture and firmness for a smoother, more toned look.
Does Cavitation Hurt?
Most patients find ultrasonic cavitation comfortable.
You may experience mild warmth or a buzzing or ringing sensation during treatment. The procedure does not require needles, incisions, or anesthesia.
Skin-tightening treatments may also create a warming sensation as energy is delivered into the treatment area.
Your comfort will be monitored throughout your appointment.
Is There Any Downtime?
One of the benefits of non-invasive body contouring is little to no downtime for most patients.
You can generally return to your normal daily activities following treatment.
Temporary redness, warmth, tenderness, or sensitivity may occur depending on the technology used and the area treated.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
The recommended number of treatments depends on:
- Treatment area
- Amount of localized fat
- Degree of skin laxity
- Skin quality
- Your individual goals
- The specific device and treatment protocol used
Body contouring is typically performed as a series of treatments.
During your consultation, we will evaluate your concerns and recommend a customized treatment plan.
When Will I See Results?
Results are gradual and vary from person to person.
Some patients notice changes during their treatment series, while skin-tightening improvements may continue developing as collagen remodeling occurs.
For the best outcome, patients should complete their recommended treatment series and maintain healthy lifestyle habits.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Skin tightening and cavitation may be appropriate for adults who:
- Are near their desired body weight
- Have localized areas they would like to contour
- Have mild to moderate skin laxity
- Want a non-surgical body-contouring option
- Prefer little to no downtime
- Have realistic expectations about non-surgical treatment
These treatments are not designed to replace weight-loss programs, medications, or surgical procedures.
Frequently Asked Questions About Kybella
Is ultrasonic cavitation a weight-loss treatment?
No. Cavitation is a body-contouring treatment, not a weight-loss treatment. It is intended to address localized areas and improve body contours rather than produce significant changes on the scale.
Is cavitation the same as liposuction?
No. Liposuction is a surgical procedure that physically removes fat. Ultrasonic cavitation is non-invasive and does not require incisions, anesthesia, or surgical recovery. The results are also more subtle and gradual than surgical liposuction.
Does skin tightening really tighten loose skin?
Non-surgical skin-tightening treatments can improve the appearance of mild to moderate skin laxity in appropriate candidates. Results vary based on age, skin quality, degree of laxity, treatment technology, and other individual factors. Significant loose or hanging skin may require a surgical consultation for more dramatic correction.
How long is a treatment?
Treatment times vary depending on the size and number of areas being treated. Your provider will give you an estimated treatment time when creating your personalized plan.
How often can I have treatments?
Treatment frequency depends on the technology being used and your personalized treatment protocol. Your provider will recommend an appropriate schedule rather than treating the same area too frequently.
Are the results permanent?
Body contouring results can be long-lasting, but your body can continue to change over time. Weight fluctuations, pregnancy, aging, hormonal changes, and lifestyle can all affect your results. Maintaining a relatively stable weight and healthy lifestyle can help preserve your body-contouring results.
Can cavitation help with cellulite?
Body-contouring treatments may help improve the appearance of skin texture in some patients, particularly when combined with other technologies. However, cellulite is caused by several structural factors and no treatment can guarantee its complete elimination.
Can I combine cavitation with other treatments?
Yes. Depending on your goals, your provider may recommend a customized body-contouring program combining different treatments. Options may include:
- Skin tightening
- Red light therapy
- Body contouring treatments
- Muscle-toning treatments
- Weight-management programs
- Medical-grade skincare/body products
