What can I expect during a Lipomelt session?
During a treatment, you will comfortably lie down in the treatment bed. You will feel a gentle, warming sensation while the laser treats all areas of the body at once and you simply enjoy a relaxing 15-minute session.
How Does Ascend Trim work?
The Ascend Trim program utilizes a combination of Lipomelt technology, whole body vibration, and personalized topical treatment gel. The unique light emitted from the Lipomelt laser causes fat cell membranes to temporarily alter the permeability of the cell wall. This brief change allows some of the fat contents to seep out to where it can then be processed by the body. This process also increases collagen and elastin in the skin to tone and tighten while creating a slimmer appearance.
Where does the fat go?
The fat is broken down into free fatty acids and glycerol. It then enters the bloodstream and free fatty acids are either eliminated by the body or used as fuel.
Do I have to exercise?
After each session, you will be on a vibration plate for ten minutes. This helps to drain and utilize the fat that has been released.
What are the risks?
Lipomelt is a safe alternative to invasive procedures such as liposuction or cool sculpting. Lipomelt is 100% noninvasive, with no downtime and no surgery. Although there are no risks for the general population, we do not allow women who are pregnant or breastfeeding to be treated.
How long do results last?
The results can be very long-lasting. The Ascend Slim program resets the metabolism, while the Ascend Trim program shrinks fat cells. However, this treatment does not destroy fat cells - just simply releases their contents (like water leaking out of a water balloon). If your caloric intake is significantly higher than you require (sometimes the holiday season gets us!), your body could eventually store fat again.
How quickly will I see results?
Most patients will see a reduction in measurements in just one visit!
Do you have any treatments for loose skin and cellulite?
Clients undergoing the Ascend Trim therapy have noticed an improvement in cellulite as well as skin tone and texture. We also have a body care line of topical gels that target both of these issues!
Are there any contraindications to the Lipomelt laser treatment?
Lipomelt is very safe: The contraindications are the same as many procedures. They include Pregnancy, Active Cancer, Pacemaker, HIV/AIDs, and Hepatitis C.
What research has been done?
LipoMelt is based on over forty years of research starting with NASA experimentation and culminating with the aesthetic and orthopedic industries today. Following the recent discovery that 635nm laser light has an effect on emptying and/or shrinking fat cells, this new technology has created an explosion in the body sculpting industry.
