LIPOcel Pre & Post Treatment Care
Thank you for choosing Elite Body Contouring for your LIPOcel Body Sculpting treatment.
In order to maintain our high standards of safety and to maximise your results, we've listed some important information below which you should familiarise yourself with before you commence your treatment.
The information listed on this page contains essential details, requirements, and/or instructions which are important for you to know before you begin your treatment with Elite Body Contouring.
If any of the below apply to you or should you have any questions, please contact us as soon as possible prior to completing your treatment.
Pre-Treatment Preparation
- Avoid a heavy meal and fatty foods 1 hour before treatment
- Avoid caffeine 2 hours before treatment
- Avoid any alcohol 24 hours before treatment
- Avoid having any laser treatments on the area 2 weeks before treatment
- Avoid excessive sun exposure 48 hours prior to treatment (we cannot treat skin which has been sunburnt)
- If the skin is red, irritated or broken, we cannot treat until the skin has completely healed
- Our treatments are not suitable for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding
- Please advise of any blood thinning or skin thinning medications you are taking
- If you have any metal implants in the area being treated unfortunately we cannot treat with LIPOcel. This is because the metal attracts the HIFU energy and the area can become quite hot and painful
- Treatments must be used in conjunction with a healthy diet and lifestyle, including the consumption of at least 2 litres of water per day to achieve results
- Please ensure the treatment area is clean shaven prior to your appointment
- Please remove any body moisturiser, oils, cream from the treatment area prior to your appointment or advise our team if you have applied a cream prior to your appointment
Combining Other Treatments with LIPOcel:
Our LIPOcel Treatment can be combined with Cellulite Reduction, RF Fat Melting, RF Skin Tightening and StimSure 7 days post treatment, however our Fat Freezing and HIFU Skin Tightening can only be performed on the same area after waiting 4 weeks post treatment. If you are interested in accelerating your results with a combined-treatment approach, please speak with your Therapist to help you plan out your ideal treatment schedule.
