Frequently Asked Questions
1. What can I expect during a session?
During the treatment, you will be placed lying down on a treatment table. Special pads will be positioned in strategic places on your body as you simply enjoy a relaxing 25 to 30 minute session.
2. How does this light system work?
The unique light emitted from the Ultimate Light System causes fat cell membranes to temporarily alter the permeability of the cell wall. This brief change allows some of the fat contents to seep out to where it can then be processed by the body. The process also increases collagen and elastin in the skin while creating a slimmer appearance.
3. What happens to the fat?
After being released, the fat is broken down into free fatty acids and glycerol and enters the bloodstream. Once in the bloodstream, the fatty acids can be either used as fuel or quickly eliminated by the body.
4. What happens to the fat cells?
The fat cells shrink to a fraction of their original size.
5. Why do you recommend a Liver Cleanse or Milk Thistle?
Your liver is the ultimate filter to remove toxins and nutrient byproducts from the body. The fast release of fat can sometimes overwhelm the liver and for this reason, a high-quality liver cleanse is recommended.
6. What area of the body can be treated?
This system can be effectively used on essentially every part of the body where localized fat deposits exist that are resistant to diet and exercise. This includes the waist, hips, upper legs, thighs, and upper arms.
7. How Soon Will I See Results?
Every body reacts differently to this type of body contouring. Some people have seen results after just one treatment!
8. How long lasting are the results?
The results can be very long-lasting. However, the Ultimate Light System does not destroy fat cells (fat cells are not just for storing fat) but releases some of their contents. If your caloric intake is significantly higher than you require, your body will eventually store fat again. For this reason, we recommend a maintenance program of once or twice per month after the desired results are attained and eating healthy.
9. What risks are involved?
There are no risks or side effects involved in using this light system. It is considered a safe alternative to invasive procedures such as traditional liposuction or cool Sculpting. The Ultimate Light system is 100% non-invasive and does not cause any bruising or scarring.
10. Are there any contraindications for its use?
Although the Ultimate Light is very safe, there are the usual contraindications which include: pregnancy, active cancer, pacemaker, HIV/AIDs, and Hepatitis C, certain diseases.
11. Do I have to follow a diet?
No changes are required... but you can expect better results if you eat healthy and increase your water consumption. Your technologist can suggest a program that fits your needs.
12. Do I have to exercise?
Each of your sessions should be followed by 10 minutes of exercise or whole body vibration to stimulate circulation and help process the fat through your lymphatic system. 20 to 30 minutes of walking per day will give you great results.
13. Does this system help with cellulite and loose skin?
Clients undergoing this treatment have noticed an improvement with cellulite as well as skin tone and texture.
14. What research has been done?
Light Therapy is based on over forty years of research starting with NASA experimentation and culminating with the aesthetic and orthopedic industries today. Following the recent discovery that 635nm light has an effect on fat cells, this new technology has created an explosion in the body sculpting industry.
