1. HOW DOES ULTRASHAPE WORK?
Physical exercises, weight loss diets, anti-cellulite creams… often the efforts pay off but are unfortunately not visible enough on the little bellies, love handles, and other dimples.
We therefore present to you a technique “full of promise”: ULTRASHAPE.
Fat and cellulite
There are two layers of fat under the skin:
- the superficial fat responsible for the dimpled appearance of orange peel skin and
- Deep fat, close to the muscles, responsible for volume.
The normal thickness of the fat layer is between 3 and 6 mm.
When one has cellulite, it can increase up to 30mm.
ULtrashape V3 A true surgery without a scalpel
Ultrashape V3 is the first non-invasive treatment that effectively and painlessly destroys fat cells thru the action of focused ultrasound.
Based on the safe and effective therapeutic ultrasound technology used for several years in the destruction of kidney stones, UltraShape has revolutionized the application of this technology by adapting it to the field of body contouring.
The technology allows for the selective laser treatment of superficial subcutaneous fat without damaging neighboring tissues.
The broken fat is directed to the liver and expelled thru the body’s normal physiological pathways, just like the fat contained in food.
The operation
This intelligent technology relies on two technological innovations:
1. Selective ultrasound that eliminates fat
The Ultrashape technique allows the application of focused therapeutic ultrasound on the subcutaneous fat layer. The focused nodes allow for the concentration of a predetermined amount of energy on the targeted fat cells, located at a depth of 1.5cm. The focused wave causes a mechanical effect that breaks down fat cells, without affecting neighboring tissues such as nerves and blood vessels, without thermal heating and without the risk of burning.
2. A 3D tracking and guidance system
Precision and safety are enhanced by an optical tracking and guidance system ensuring precise treatment.
With the help of a single camera, the treatment area is captured by the computer system. a state-of-the-art software is used to map the treatment area in 3D.
The system then determines in real-time the fat nodes that need to be treated and that no diet can make disappear. The tracking system ensures that each area is treated only once. This ensures optimal efficiency thanks to the uniformity of the treatment. The system records and synchronizes the body’s position in real-time, allowing the patient to move freely and giving them the option to stand up in the middle of the treatment.

- For those who fear a heavy procedure and consider surgery too early or too aggressive. For those who fear a heavy procedure and consider surgery too early or too aggressive.
- For those who do not wish to undergo surgery.
- For people of “normal” weight or slightly overweight (BMI <29). the thickness of the fat should be between 1.5 and 3cm. ATTENTION: you are not a good candidate if you are

2.3 A typical Ultrashape session Here is the typical course of a session: 1. During the consultation, the practitioner delineates the areas to be treated, takes measurements, and captures images. 2. A gel is applied to the entire area to be treated. For men, this area may be waxed because abundant hair can hinder the effectiveness of the treatment. 3. The computerized guidance system calculates
