Effective cellulite reduction and a sculpted body with ultrasonic cavitation
Ultrasonic cavitation, is a cutting-edge body sculpting technique that uses low-frequency ultrasounds to break down fat cells beneath the skin. The treatment works well on cellulite and creates a more contoured appearance with no downtime. Unlike traditional weight loss methods, ultrasonic cavitation focuses on reducing cellulite (or lumpiness under the skin) in targeted areas, allowing for visible improvements in just a few sessions. It is also used to sculpt other areas of the body.

How does ultrasonic
cavitation work for cellulite reduction?
Ultrasound cavitation works by sending low-frequency sound waves into the targeted area, causing the fat cells to break down and turn into a liquid form. The body naturally absorbs and eliminates these liquefied fat cells through the lymphatic system and liver, helping achieve cellulite reduction and cm loss. This process is safe and does not harm surrounding tissues, making it one of the most advanced body contouring treatments available today.
Each treatment is 30 minutes, and most clients start to notice a reduction in cm’s or cellulite and improved skin tone after just a few treatments.
What to expect during and
after treatment
During your ultrasonic cavitation cellulite reduction session, a gel is applied to the targeted area, and an applicator is used to deliver ultrasound waves. You might feel a mild heat sensation, tingling, or a slight buzzing in the ears, but the procedure is generally painless. Most clients compare the experience to having a relaxing massage.
After the treatment, there is no recovery time required. You can return to your daily activities immediately. Some redness in the treated area may occur but usually subsides quickly. For optimal cellulite reduction results, we recommend increasing your water intake to help flush out the broken-down fat cells.

Preparing for ultrasonic cavitation treatment
To ensure the best results from your ultrasonic cavitation treatment, it's important to properly prepare your body beforehand. Here are some tips to get ready for your cellulite reduction session:
- Drink plenty of water (at least 2 litres) in the 24 hours before your treatment. Proper hydration helps your body break down and eliminate fat cells more effectively.
- Refrain from consuming alcohol or caffeine 48 hours before your session, as these can dehydrate your body and interfere with the fat removal process.
- Have a light, balanced meal before your treatment. Avoid heavy or greasy foods that can slow down your metabolism.
- Engage in light physical activity leading up to your appointment to boost circulation and metabolism.
- Choose loose, comfortable clothing for your session. This makes it easier to access the treatment areas and ensures you feel relaxed during the process.
- Do not apply any lotions, oils, or creams to the target area before your appointment. Clean, product-free skin allows for optimal ultrasound energy penetration.
Post-treatment care tips
After your ultrasonic cavitation session, follow these care tips to maximise the benefits and promote optimal cellulite reduction:
- Continue drinking at least 2 litres of water daily for several days after your treatment. Proper hydration helps flush out the liquefied fat cells through your lymphatic system.
- Limit your intake of alcohol and caffeine for 48 hours post-treatment to support your body’s detoxification process.
- Lightly massage the treated area in circular motions to stimulate circulation and aid in the removal of broken-down fat cells.
- Incorporate light exercise, such as walking or cycling, within 24 hours of your treatment. Physical activity helps speed up the body's natural fat elimination process.
- Maintain a healthy, balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins. Avoid high-fat and high-sugar foods to prevent new fat cell formation in the treated areas.
- For at least 24 hours post-treatment, avoid hot environments that can cause excessive sweating and irritation in the treated areas.
- Mild redness or sensitivity may occur in the treated area, but it should subside within a few hours. If any unusual side effects persist, contact your therapist.
- For optimal results, follow the recommended number of sessions and consult your therapist for any additional post-treatment advice.
- By following these pre- and post-treatment care guidelines, you can maximise the effectiveness of your ultrasonic cavitation sessions, enhance cellulite reduction, and achieve your desired body sculpting results more efficiently.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does ultrasonic cavitation work?
Ultrasonic cavitation uses low-frequency sound waves to penetrate the skin and break down fat cells, effectively reducing the appearance of cellulite. These cells implode into a liquid state and are naturally processed by the body, resulting in cellulite reduction and a more sculpted appearance.
Where do the fat cells go?
The liquefied fat cells are absorbed by the body and flushed out through the liver and lymphatic system as waste.
Where are the best parts of the body to use ultrasonic cavitation on?
This treatment is best suited for areas with localised fat, such as the upper arms, thighs, abdomen, hips, and buttocks, providing a comprehensive cellulite solution.
Can I lose weight with ultrasonic cavitation?
Ultrasonic cavitation is not designed for weight loss. Instead, it focuses on body contouring as well as diminishing the appearance of cellulite in targeted areas, helping you achieve a more toned and slim appearance.
How long until I see results?
Most clients notice a reduction in measurements and cellulite after the first treatment, with continued improvement over the following weeks. Results may vary depending on individual metabolism and lifestyle.
Is the procedure painful?
The procedure is not painful. Clients may feel a slight heat sensation or mild tingling, but most find it relaxing, similar to a massage.
Is the procedure safe?
Yes! Ultrasonic cavitation is FDA-approved and considered one of the safest methods for cellulite removal and body contouring.
Does the treatment require time off afterwards?
No! You can go right back to your daily routine. We recommend increasing your water intake to aid in fat removal.
Are there any side effects?
The targeted areas may experience mild redness, which typically subsides within a few hours.
Combination treatments for optimal results
For the best body contouring outcomes, ultrasonic cavitation can be combined with other treatments like EMS sculpt and tone for muscle building, lipo laser for enhanced fat reduction, or radio frequency for skin tightening. Our specialists at Body Sculpt On The Go will create a customised treatment plan tailored to your body goals, ensuring you achieve optimal and lasting results.
EMS Sculpt and Tone
Our EMS sculpt and tone treatment uses high-intensity electromagnetic pulses to build muscle and burn fat simultaneously. A 30-minute session is equivalent to 20,000 crunches or squats, providing a powerful workout boost without any effort. It’s perfect for toning the abs, thighs, and glutes.
Lipo Laser
Lipo laser uses low-level laser therapy to shrink fat cells in areas such as the legs, abdomen, and arms. Each session lasts around 30 minutes, and you can resume normal activities right after. This painless, non-invasive treatment helps reduce centimeters in the treated areas and requires no recovery time.
Radio Frequency
Radio frequency is a skin-tightening treatment that stimulates collagen and elastin production, reducing the appearance of fine lines and sagging skin. This 30-minute non-invasive treatment can be used on the face and body, providing a firmer, more youthful appearance with no downtime.
