Cavitation, cryolipolysis, lipo laser, vacuum therapy and EMS compared by mechanism, sessions, evidence and cost, with honest limits on what each technology can and cannot change.
Most cavitation before and after photos are taken at the wrong moment. Immediate circumference readings after a session measure fluid, and a ten session course is where the real change appears.
Here is what actually changes, how to document it, …
Cavitation is sold as fat melting and measured with a tape measure the same afternoon, which is why so many people conclude it does not work. A cavitation treatment course does produce modest change, but only if you measure what …
Cavitation is marketed as fat melting, which sets expectations nobody can meet. What the technology actually does is narrower and more useful to understand before you spend money.
Low-frequency ultrasound disrupts fat cell membranes.
Waves …
Cryolipolysis remains the most evidence-backed fat reduction technology, and also the one with the strangest rare complication. Both facts matter before you buy a machine or book a course.
Cooling crystallises fat cells, …
Six technologies share the label “body contouring” and each changes something different. Choosing the wrong one is the most common expensive mistake we see, so this page matches technology to the concern you actually want to change.
Lipo laser machines are sold mainly on pad count, which is the least informative number in the specification. Coverage, wavelength and session time decide whether a course produces anything measurable.
Low-level laser light …
