Non-surgical tightening

In order to achieve optimum results from your Radio Frequency treatment, we strongly recommend the following:

One Week Prior To Your Treatment Session:

· Increasing water intake and aim to drink 2 – 3 liters per day.

· Reduce the intake of toxins to the body (caffeine, tobacco, alcohol).

· Medications are OK to continue, although this will be fully analyzed and checked during your consultation prior to your treatment.

· Avoid alcohol 48 hours prior to treatment.

· Reduce intake of carbohydrates.

· Increase the consumption of fruit and vegetables.

24 Hours Prior To Your Treatment Session

· Drink 1 liter of water prior to your appointment.

· Do not drink fizzy, carbonated drinks 12 hours prior to your treatment session.

· Do not eat a large meal prior to your treatment session, as this can make you feel uncomfortable during the treatment.

AFTERCARE:

In order to achieve optimum results from your Radio Frequency treatment, we strongly recommend the following:

· Drink 2 – 3 liters of water daily, keep a large bottle with you at all times and infuse with lemons and limes for flavor. This will flush out the crystallized lipids (dead fat cells) out of your body through the lymphatic system.

· Follow the diet plan we issue and reduce your intake of alcohol and carbohydrates.

· Reduce your intake of caffeine to no more than 1 cup a day.

· Exercise vigorously after treatment to help stimulate lymphatic drainage (the body’s process of the removal of fat).

· Regular body brushing at home, this is a great way to stimulate the lymphatic system to naturally eliminate the fat cells.

· Avoid hot baths or showers, steam or heat treatments for 24 hours.

· Avoid alcohol for 48 – 72 hours.
