Do you like close-fitting clothes but can not wear them because of unsightly fat layers on your abdomen or thighs? UltraShape is the first safe, effective, surgery-free (non-operative) body contouring treatment which breaks down subcutaneous fat layers and smooths out skin with celulitis on places that are difficult to shape with exercise or diet. This method is completely painless, effective, with no surgery and no undesirable side effects and its results can be actually measured.

What happens during treatment

The treatment uses focused ultrasound waves selectively breaking membranes of fat cells lying 1,5 cm under skin surface. After one treatment there is an average reduction of a six-milimetre layer of subcutaneous fat deposits. The fat cells are ultimately processed by the body´s immune system. The neighboring tissues as blood vessels, nerves and muscles remain intact as well as the skin which does not show signs of any possible damage caused by the treatment.

Who is it for

Suitable candidates for the treatment are men and women with subcutaneous fat layer thicker than 1,5 cm. Ultrashape can also provide a long lasting remedy for clients with celulitis.

Contra-indications for treatment are pregnancy, liver diseases, heavy metabolic derangements, metabolic errors of blood lipids, derangement of coagulation, illnesses of connective tissues and heart pacemaker. The UltraShape treatment focuses mostly on flanks, abdomen and thighs (inner and outer sides) – places which are difficult to shape with other methods. This treatment is however not the same as surgery liposuction and is therefore not suitable for obese people. UltraShape can not reduce your weight but helps you to change and improve your body contour.

Before treatment

During an obligatory consultation before the treatment, the physician is going to decide whether UltraShape is suitable for the patient, examine the area to be treated as well as its size and set the price for treatment.

Treatment

The physician first marks the treatment area directly on the skin and covers surrounding parts with towels. He/she enters required data to a computer system and starts the treatment. Using a sophisticated tracking system, focused ultrasound energy (pulses) selectively targets fat cells in the chosen body area, ensuring that each treatment point is covered. This tracking system ensures an even treatment without unwanted irregularities on the skin. Treatment is comfortable, painless, you can even read or make telephone calls during it. The procedure usually ranges between one and two hours, depending on the size of the treated area.

One session is usually enough, but if you want to get rid of more than 6mm of subcutaneous fat layer, it is possible to repeat the treatment, no sooner than after one month. And the result? After a single procedure there is an average reduction of 1,5 – 2 centimeters in treated area circumference.

After treatment

A very comfortable manual lymphatic drainage follows immediately after treatment and helps the body to process the disrupted fat cells by its own lymphatic system. For best results, it is recommended to be on a diet with low fat and sugar intake for a period of 4 days after treatment and do plenty of exercise. Final results can be seen after approximately 3-4 weeks.

How long do the effects last

Human body has a final number of fat cells, it means that no new ones are formed after removal of some of them.

UltraContourT of MedixSysteme company is the first patented device of the dual ultrasound technology with the accesory multisequential ultrasounds waves technology UMDR to reach optimal body contours.

What is UltraContour?

System UltraContour is a painless form of liposuction with the help of highly focused ultrasound that is thousand times more intense than normal ultrasound examination. It is a gentle method that enables to reach desirable effects without bruises and odds that are typical for invasive methods. New generation UltraContour™ uses in its first phase (HIFU) combination of physical effects associated with ultrasound:

In the second phase the fat cells metabolism is increased through UMD ultrasound drainage massage waves. They help their drainage via lymphatic system.

UltraContour is a medical device fully certified by CE 0499 according to Medical Directive 93/42/EEC. Its safety and effects are guaranteed and proved.

Are you a suitable candidate for UltraContour?

A woman is the most suitable candidate for the therapy at age 25 to 55, with BMI index 25-35, with the fat in the area of tummy and legs. Eventually even with cellulite. A man is an ideal candidate at age 30 to 50 with overweight in the area of tummy. Both with low exercise and with energetic content of food higher than output. Also a woman after pregnancy or nursing can undergo the procedure, when she wants to quickly regain her original contours.

Before the surgery

It is not necessary to keep some special restrictions or preparation. Maybe only sufficient intake of liquids. The procedure is not recommended to patients with metabolic diseases, during pregnancy and nursing, with metal implants and tumors in the area of the procedure, with hepatitis, HIV, inflammations or skin rash in the place of application.

The procedure

Each procedure – one session consists of two phases. In the first phase a technology HIFU is used (high intensity focused ultrasound), which covers point by point the given area, e.g. tummy, thighs… This part of the procedure takes approximately 20 minutes.

In the second phase (approximately 20 minutes) a technology UMD is used (ultrasound lymph drainage) that ensures effective drainage of residua after HIFU phase. The treated area is painted with special gel, which creates good conditions for ultrasound waves spread.

After the procedure

There are no limitations. It is good to maintain a healthy menu and to start with exercise activities.

How long does the effect of UltraContour last?

The effects are more lasting compared to alternative non-invasive procedures and massage technologies with vacuum suction. The fat cells are removed similar to invasive liposuction. The best results can be naturally achieved by patient that consequently change their eating habits and increase their exercise activities.

SmartLipo or laser lipolysis is a method used in removal of undesirable fat deposits. It shapes your body. The laser beam promotes the breaking up of the fat cells that are eliminated in a natural manner from the body. Without large bleeding, without pain and incapacity for work.

How does  laser liposuction – SmartLipo  work?

A very small cannula (tube) approximately 1.0 mm to 2.0 mm in diameter containing a laser fiber is inserted into the skin. The cannula is moved back and forth delivering the laser’s energy directly to the subcutaneous fat cells, causing them to rupture and easily drain away. The laser energy also interacts with the dermis, resulting in collagen shrinkage.

Liquid fat tissue is left usually without suction in case of very tiny parts. It is gradually absorbed due to natural metabolism. In case of larger treated areas it is necessary to gently suck the fat tissue dissolved through laser. Most of the modern clinics world-wide use technique of vibration liposuction.

Due to the cannula’s small size, Smartlipo is a minimally invasive procedure and can be performed under local anesthesia. The laser causes small blood vessels to coagulate immediately on contact, resulting in less bleeding, swelling and bruising – and a quicker recovery time than conventional liposuction.

Worries about the safety of the laser should be quelled – the laser can easily differentiate between fat cells and other tissues including nerves, blood vessels, and connective tissues. The places of laser beam insertion into the subcutis are not sewn, they are only treated with plaster. They almost disappear step by step.

Are you a good candidate for laser liposuction – Smartlipo?

If you have areas of fat that will not respond to diet and exercise, then you’re a candidate for Laserlipolysis. Ideal candidates are in good health, of normal body weight and have realistic expectations for the results.

SmartLipo is ideal for treating following areas : tummy, chin, arms, male breasts, inner and outer thights, buttocks, decolletage, knees, hips, ankles and areas of loose and flabby skin. The procedure may improve the body’s shape and may improve cellulite to a certain degrese.

How many treatments are needed?

For most patients, typically only one treatment is required. The session may last from 45 minutes to one hour for each area treated.

What is necessary to do post-treatment?

After the treatment you will need to wear a compression garment for several days to several weeks, depending on the body area being treated.In small treatments such as double chin it is possible to leave the treated areas without compression underwear. Rest is recommended after the procedure and activity may be resumed gradually. Refrain from hot tubs or strenuous exercise for 2 weeks. Most people go back to work after two days.

Does laser liposuction provide lasting results?

Yes, adults do not create new fat cells. When a person gains weight, the fat cells expand. The Smartlipo procedure permanently removes the fat cells. Should you gain weight, most fat will be deposited in areas where the procedure was not performed.

Results can be seen as soon as a week with continued improvement over several months.

Mesotherapy is a procedure rejuvenating not only facial, neck and low neck skin but also the skin of arms. It enhances blood and lymph circulation and substantially improves the regenerative capacity of the skin.

Mesotherapy treatment

Mesotherapy naturally supports formation of collagen and new cells, stretches your skin and smoothes medium wrinkles. Mesotherapy is also used to treat cellulites.

Mesotherapy is a minimum invasive procedure that involves injecting of microscopic quantities of healing solutions into the mesoderm (i.e. to the depth of 4 mm).

Healing solutions mostly contain high concentrations of vitamins, amino acids and coenzymes.These substances significantly enhance the skin regeneration.

If your skin is too dry or if fine wrinkles are to be smoothed, the solution is combined with hyaluronic acid, which is one of the fundamental elements of the skin structure. Its application intensively hydrates and subsequently stretches and consolidates the skin profile. Even medium facial or low neck wrinkles can be smoothed.

The surgeon performs the procedure manually or uses a special applicator. He/she determines the specific procedure and the exact composition of the healing solution on the grounds of the skin age and state.

Are you the right candidate for mesotherapy?

If you are looking for a non-surgical bargain method of rejuvenating your facial, neck and low neck skin, you are probably the right candidate for mesotherapy. Nevertheless, your expectations should be realistic. Mesotherapy will not prevent your skin from aging but it can temporarily stretch the skin and smooth medium wrinkles, and thus make you look better.

Discuss your expectations and ideas with your surgeon who will check the state and age of your skin and decide which healing solution should be used. Composition of such solution is always highly individual.

Mesotherapy may be combined with other aesthetic surgery procedures.

Anaesthesia

Mostly, the desensitization is not necessary. Extremely sensitive patients may ask for a desensitizing cream.

After the operation

It is vital to avoid sun exposure immediately after the operation and for the two subsequent days; sun-block creams (SPF 40-100) must be used.

The recovery process depends on the extent of the procedure and the state of your skin. No other limitations are in place. You will be able to return to your job and other everyday activities within two hours after the operation.

Results of mesotherapy

Since the effect of healing solutions is immediate, the results are visible after the first session already. Nevertheless, the effect of mesotherapy is temporary and the treatment must be repeated.

Mostly, it is recommended to have the first two applications in one-month time and the third application after three months. To sustain the effects of mesotherapy it is recommended to repeat the treatment once a year.

Firm, rejuvenated, and relaxed skin without cellulite or the efficient preparation of skin for surgical procedures and quick healing afterwards – these are the benefits of LPG. The Cosmetic Department at Asklepion now offers body and face treatments with an LPG device that provides a great number of various aesthetic and therapeutic procedures.

The device sends regular, rhythmic, mechanical and intensely stimulating micro impulses to the skin. By means of special massage the LPG is able to efficiently fight cellulite and firm skin. It also provides relaxing therapeutic effects to the entire body.

Another important advantage of LPG is preparation for surgical procedures such as liposuction, abdominoplasty and the reduction or modelling of breasts. Pre-surgical treatment programs serve to prepare the hypodermis, promote blood circulation to the skin and to soften fat tissue. These programs effectively prepare patients for surgical procedures and significantly influence their successful outcome.

If a patient has already undergone an operation the LPG continues preventative pre-surgical massage with therapeutic post-surgical programs. These programs are recommended following all procedures performed on the body. LPG radically reduces the healing period. Following liposuction LPG is able to ensure faster and more balanced absorption of hypodermic structures, which has a positive influence on the overall result of the operation.

With individual face programs, which can also be applied on the bust, LPG works as lifting and, thanks to a positive influence on the creation and regeneration of collagen fibres, helps prevent the appearance of aging skin. LPG effectively fights against wrinkles and loose skin and also has a positive effect on problematic skin. Patients can undergo the program in a series of several treatments or as express therapy with immediate effect (serves as effective first aid). At Asklepion we combine LPG treatment with the Omnilux device and top skin masks and sera that intensify the effects of the therapy and guarantee an excellent feeling from the visible results.

A non-invasive and non-ablative method for tightening skin, remodelling the contours of the face and body, and treating cellulite that is not demanding time wise.

We apply radio frequency using special electrodes that heat subcutaneous tissue to a high temperature, causing collagen fibres to regroup and contract. By alternating mono and bipolar radio frequency waves limp skin immediately tightens.

A unique combination of ultrasound sonic dermabrasion and ultrasound sonic phoresis works on the deepest layers of skin. The treatment gives clients tight, rejuvenated and invigorated skin on both the surface and in the deep layers. The overall effect of the therapy is supported by the stimulation of collagen fibres, the “building blocks” of the skin. The better the condition of these fibres, the younger your skin will look. Radio frequency also has a fantastic effect on deep deposits of cellulite.

How is the treatment performed?

The treatment by radio frequency is always performed on the basis of a medical recommendation from a physician who evaluates the physical condition and medical history of the client.

Following an initial check-up the actual procedure is performed by trained medical personnel or a cosmetician. The skin is first prepared with a fine ultrasound peeling to maximise the resulting effect. A local anaesthetic is then applied (for approximately ten minutes), followed by the actual radio frequency treatment. A refreshing gel is applied to the skin afterwards.

During the procedure the patient feels a gentle vibration as the radio frequency waves penetrate fat tissue. There must never be any pain; in fact, many clients experience the treatment as a very pleasant massage.

Visibly strained after the procedure, the skin may be warm and red as the result of increased blood circulation. Everything returns to normal after one or two days.

How many times must the treatment be repeated?

Visible results are achieved after five treatments; there should be at least a two week pause between procedures. Sessions last between 15 and 50 minutes depending on the individual’s condition.

Where is radio frequency effective?

Any parts of the body with cellulite and which need to be tightened and firmed, including limp skin on the neck and face, on the back of arms, etc.

Radio frequency produces excellent results in combination with body programs and face and neck therapy such as Omnilux, the laser gel mask, and fractionated lasers.

It’s that time again! Soon the air will be full of summer, holidays, and the thought “I want to lose weight and so something with myself…”

We all want to be beautiful and slim and to handle everything with a smile at work and in our personal lives. So, we need a new stimulus, motivation, or the help of a specialist. In our cosmetics department we offer our clients a wide choice of face and body care programmes. Now we want to present something new – the Cellu M6 Keymodule I device produced by LPG Systems (France), which works on the principle of the latest Endermology technology.

This technology is designed to treat pathological chances in connective tissue. The Cellu M6 Keymodule I combines the effect of a modulated vacuum and a roller massage. Its treatment head, containing two completely independently powered rollers creates a “vacuum wave” which the self-propelled head moves forwards, backwards, to the side, or diagonally. Depending on the choice of programme it offers a painless way of loosening the fat deposits below the uppermost layer of the epidermis.

The device is equipped with a procedure checking system allowing the operator to monitor the intensity of the session on the folds of the skin and ensure the maximum efficiency of each movement.

As each treatment has its own specific characteristics, LPG Systems has developed special body care programmes:

1. Aesthetic programmes

2. Therapeutic programmes

3. Sports programmes

The basic effects resulting from use of the Cellu M6 Keymodule I and Endermology technology are:

Another new device we have added to the range of appliances in our cosmetics department is the LIFT 6, also made by LPG Systémes (France). It works on the basis of the new Cosmécanique three-dimensional technology. This device enables treatment of the face, neck and upper chest area using a mechanical vacuum method.

The device has the following positive effects where it is applied:

Nowadays lasers are used almost in all medicine fields. Plastic surgery and esthetic dermatology are not an exception. In this article you can find out why not to be afraid of SmartLipo method and what you can expect.

Laser Liposuction (Laser-assisted Liposuction, SmartLipo)

This surgical method develops dynamically and is used in many countries with success. It was approved by FDA in USA. It completes and gradually substitutes older liposuction methods.

It is the newest conception of body contouring through laser beam. It presents the least invasive technique that can remove excessive fat tissues in all areas. It is caused by change from energy of laser beam to thermal energy, which breaks up the fat cells. The fat cells of an adult person don’t have the ability to reproduce (multiplication, reproduction) and that’s why the performed procedures have permanent effect. The permanence of the result does not concern only the reduction of fat tissue, it includes also permanent optimal body shape. Also another effect of laser liposuction is of the same importance, unique skin lift in treated areas that is caused by laser stimulation of subcutaneous collagen.

Performing Laser Liposuction

The chosen and beforehand drawn area is anesthetized with a solution before the procedure. It is followed by insertion of very thin laser fiber into the chosen subcutaneous fatty area and gradual dissolving of fat cells. Liquid fat tissue is left usually without suction in case of very tiny parts. It is gradually absorbed due to natural metabolism. In case of larger treated areas it is recommended to combine the laser treatment with gentle suction of the fat tissue. Most of the modern clinics world-wide use technique of vibration liposuction – power assisted liposuction. The combination of laser lipolysis with this type of suction is nowadays considered as the most gentle and most effective.

The area of laser fibers insertion is not sewn after the procedure, they are treated only with a tiny piece of plaster and the marks fade after some time. The patient wears according to the surgeon’s recommendation elastic underwear for several days. In case of very tiny extent of the procedure it is possible to leave the treated area without special underwear (e.g. gentle treatment of double chin).

The Advantages of Laser Liposuction

The same advantages are valid for the described surgical technique as for tumescent and vibration-tumescent technique, i.e. out-patient procedure without the need of general anesthesia; no medical and esthetic risks of the procedure; the possibility to evaluate the result in a vertical position; permanent effect of the result; self-sufficiency after the procedure without the need for repeated check-ups by the surgeon; improvement or deletion of eventual cellulite.

Moreover compared to other liposuction techniques by laser liposuction we can expect:
