Dual-Frequency Ultrasounds
for a Double Slimming Effect
The Finesse slimming program relies on exclusive dual-frequency ultrasound technology to treat both superficial fat, including cellulite, and deep internal fat.
How does it work?
There are two types of ultrasounds: high and medium frequency (HMF) ultrasounds and low frequency (LF) ultrasounds. Both are used in the medical and aesthetics fields.
HMF ultrasounds, which have a convex stream, are less sensitive to change of tissue density and, therefore, are not refracted. They are mainly used in physiotherapy, non invasive surgery and facial treatments.
LF ultrasounds, which have a concave stream, are very sensitive to change of tissue density and, therefore, are immediately refracted. They are mainly used for echography and cellulite treatment.
There are also two types of fat:
- Superficial fat, which is hypodermic fat that eventually transforms into cellulite, parallel and steomatic fat.
- Deep internal fat, which is mostly visceral fat located around organs in the abdomen.
Therefore, there are two types of ultrasound for two types of action on fat:
-
Low frequency ultrasounds for a mechanical action on superficial fat.
Low frequency ultrasounds cause a molecular agitation that weakens the cellular membrane of fat cells and liberates fatty acids (through the lipolysis of triglycerides) as well as water into the lymphatic system. They also increase temperature that causes an hypervascularization to restore blood microcirculation. The "jack hammer" effect of LF ultrasounds breaks fibrosis networks of cellulite and LF ultrasounds sonophoresis effect allows active principles of cosmetics to penetrate through the skin for a long-lasting action on fat cells.
-
Medium frequency ultrasounds for an informative action on deep internal fat.
Low intensity medium frequency ultrasounds stimulate the neuro-sympathic system which liberates noradrenaline to cause lipolysis in stimulated areas and all over the body.
Each treatment session is twenty minutes. The technique is pain free.
Results are visible after two sessions.
