Cavitation
Ultrasound cavitation is a treatment that reduces body fat safely, efficiently, and non-invasively. We use targeted ultrasonic waves to break down fat cells without harming any other cells in your body

If you are looking to reduce the circumference of your thighs, hips, stomach or get rid of stubborn pockets of fat that won’t shift no matter how much you diet and exercise, then at Avelar Aesthetics, we can help you. During cavitation, fat cells are instantly and permanently broken down in your area of concern.
Cavitation is most effective at treating larger areas, so if you are looking for leaner thighs, to get rid of love handles or to lose inches from your waist, then cavitation is for you.
Cavitation delivers a focused wave of ultrasound to the fat layer. The power of the vibration from the ultrasound wave creates a build-up of pressure in the fat cell. It continues to build until the fat cell membrane can no longer withstand this pressure and the fat cell wall disintegrates without causing damage to any other cells or tissues.
The triglycerides are released from the cells and flow into the intra-cellular space where they are enzymatically changed into free fatty acids and glycerol. Water-soluble glycerol is absorbed by the circulatory system and used as an energy source. Insoluble free fatty acids are transported to and processed by the liver.
The more water you drink, the better your body will be at flushing these out!

Frequently Asked Questions
Please reach us at ricardo@avelaraesthetics.co.uk if you cannot find an answer to your question.
The treatment is non-invasive and painless. You may feel a warming sensation on the area being treated and a slight feeling of vibration in the fat layer.
There is also a slight ringing in the ears caused by the ultrasound waves passing through your tissues. It is completely safe, normal and stops as soon as the cavitation head is removed.
We recommend a course of 6-8 treatments for you to see meaningful results. It is important that your expectations are realistic. We are reluctant to give one off treatments as results (1-3cm loss) will not be as noticeable. Therefore, in the interest of client satisfaction, we recommend that you have 6-8 treatments. However, each person’s body will react differently and so we cannot guarantee what your results will be.
For you to get the results you want, your treatment time is tailored to suit you. Your treatments will be either 30 or 45 minutes, depending on your needs and concerns. A larger surface area will need more treatment time. A course of 6-8 is recommended for best results.
After cavitation, the triglycerides are removed naturally by the body. The only side effects may be that you feel a little thirsty as the body wants to flush these waste products from the body. So, drink at least 2.5 litres of water a day for 5-7 days after treatment.
You may have some redness around the treated area and mild bruising, both which are very normal, temporary and will subside.

This therapy is non-invasive, unlikely traditional liposuction that removes the fat permanently from your body, this therapy breaks down the fat cells that need to be then removed by the lymphatic system. If you don't have a change on your diet/exercise, this therapy will not work as intended and you will not be satisfied with the results. For best results we recommend that you reduce your calory intake by reducing the amount of carbs/fat consumed for 3 to 5 days and do at least 30 minutes cardio (this can be done at home).
