1 Love-Lipo Ultrasonic Liposuction is a nonsurgical, painless, body sculpting procedure for permanent inch loss. Join the fat loss revolution today! Love-Lipo Ultrasonic Liposuction destroys fat cells permanently while dieting only decreases fat cells in size, but their quantity remains the same! About Us Love-Lipo uses a unique cavitation technology that allows for non-surgical removal of stubborn fat deposits that despite diets or exercise normally refuse to disappear. The most problematic areas of the body are the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, inner knees, upper arms and male breasts (moobs). Ultrasonic liposuction is a procedure that breaks down fatty tissue and fat cells are removed naturally through the body's lymphatic system. It is a low-cost alternative option to surgical liposuction. The Love Lipo Treatment This revolutionary new 40 minute treatment session feels like a massage and the slimming results can be instant. Straight after the treatment you can go and get on with your normal life - your body shape can now be contoured with no pain, no scars and no down time! What can you expect from the treatment? We all know that for our bodies to look their best, we need to follow a healthy diet and ensure that we take regular exercise. However for some of us this still doesn't always give us the body and shape we crave or desire. Ultrasonic liposuction is a really effective method of giving your body that extra boost to remove stubborn pockets of fat that just won't disappear despite working out in the gym or taking regular aerobic exercise. One treatment can remove up to a pound of fat or 1.5 inches from the area being treated. Permanent Results The ultrasonic waves destroy fat cells in the areas treated forever. Noticeable results in problem areas may be achieved in as few as 4-6 sessions. A course of 6 to 20 sessions are recommended for the best results, this will depend on the individual and the area being treated. The area being treated will continue to decrease fat cells for 3 months after the procedure without further assistance.

2 The Process of Ultrasonic Liposuction Here at Love-Lipo we aim to provide a relaxing and enjoyable experience. We offer a free, noobligation consultation and the first treatment can be performed immediately after if you like. The purpose of the consultation is to:- Discuss how the machine works; Discuss the areas you would like to have treated; Help us understand your requirements and what you would like to achieve from the process; Give you all the necessary information you need on the treatment and answer any questions: Advise you on what extra lifestyle changes you may need to implement to gain the best results from the treatment course. We will take before measurements and photos to record your progress. The trained technician focuses a round ultrasonic amplifier around the area being treated which delivers ultrasonic energy to subcutaneous fat. The ultrasonic waves burst the fat cell membranes and 'melts' the fat. This then passes through the lymphatic system and leaves the body through the liver within 2 to 3 weeks after the procedure. The machine consists of two ultrasonic heads and electrode pads. All three are pain free and intensity is adjusted for every individual to meet their specific needs. The first ultrasonic head has a low frequency strong sound wave, which only targets fat cells and destroys them. Once destroyed they cannot grow back. The second ultrasonic head is a higher frequency process which melts down the fat and makes it easier to stream through the lymphatic system and into the blood stream for disposal. The electrode pad tightens and firms the area helping to sculpture the body. Each treatment lasts around 40 minutes and one session is required per week for at least 6 weeks. Lifestyle Change The treatment at Love-Lipo should not be thought of as a "quick fix". In order for the treatment to work at its best you also need to commit to certain changes in lifestyle. In between sessions you should follow a low carbohydrate diet and drink plenty of water. You must avoid alcohol for at least 4 days after the treatment and take lots of exercise to encourage lymph flow which supports the removal of fat cells from the body. If you don't follow the lifestyle changes recommended by Love-Lipo it is likely that you will gain more weight but it will just show up in another area of the body which has not been treated.

3 Love-Lipo Ultrasonic Liposuction treatment is ideal for men, women, brides, bodybuilders, people with minor injuries or little or no time to exercise Brides and grooms - lose inches before your big day or beachside honeymoon (noone will know you have had the treatment) Body Builders - get rid of that last few cm of fat covering specific areas of your body such as your chest (moobs) or hard earned abs. Look good on holiday - imagine what a few inches less around the waist or thighs could do for your silhouette & selfconfidence. Time poor? Just 40 minutes a week will give you great results. Remember Ultrasonic Liposuction gives you permanent results Suitability for Treatment Unfortunately treatment isn't suitable for everyone. Please check that your BMI falls in the treatable range and should be no more than 30. Significant obesity is outside the treatment range for the contouring and styling effects of ultrasonic liposuction. Also some medical conditions and drugs will make some patients unsuitable to benefit from treatments. You will be unsuitable for Love-Lipo treatments if you have any of the following: Liver problems Kidney or pancreatic problems Pregnancy or suspected pregnancy or baby nursing women Significant obesity (BMI>30) Severe hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, diabetes mellitus & poor circulation in blood & lymph Gall stones or problems handling a fatty diet High cholesterol or hypertriglyceridemia Implanted devices (e.g. pacemaker or intrauterine device (IUD) Cancer Systemic or autoimmune diseases Immunosuppression or are taking immunosuppressive drugs Scarring, hernias or undefined skin disorders or allergies in the treatment area Body image disorders or too little fat (not able to pinch & hold 3cm of fat) Not eating a healthy diet and taking regular exercise

5 What does Ultrasonic actually mean? Ultrasonic refers to sound frequency. An ultrasonic Cavitation hand piece will make a sound we cannot hear while it is vibrating. We measure the vibration times per second as sound frequency and refer to this as Hertz. Humans can hear from 20 hertz to 20,000 hertz. We are unable to hear anything above or below these levels. Therefore sound waves with frequency above 20,000 hertz we call ultrasonic. A Megahertz is 1,000,000 hertz; we refer to as Mhz. Usually an Ultrasonic frequency of 1Mhz to 5MHz is used for various medical treatments. It is highly penetrative. The Science How does Ultrasonic Liposuction work? The basic working principle is the wellknown physical phenomenon of cavitation. The first Ultrasonic Head has a low frequency strong sound wave of 40,000Hz. Ultrasonic waves are made up of expansion and compression cycles. The compression cycles exert a positive pressure on fluid bringing the molecules nearer together, while the expansion cycles exert a negative pressure that tends to move the molecules away from each other. The focused high energy waves create micro bubbles of vapour inside the adipose tissue and in the interstitial liquids of cellulite. In a low density tissue such as adipose (fat) tissue this makes the adipose cell implode with the release of water and fat, as they do not have the structural capacity to withstand the vibrations. The effect of cavitation easily breaks fat cells while sparing the vascular, nervous and muscular tissue. The ultrasonic device emits regulated ultrasonic waves of 40,000Hz which only affect adipose tissue and non-adipose tissue remains unaffected. The blasted fat cells disintegrate and the triglyceride is enzymatically metabolized into glycerol and free fatty acids. When you work out it takes over half an hour of intense exercise to produce cavitation, with Ultrasound it is reached from the first minute of treatment.

6 What is Radio Frequency (RF)? Radio Frequency is the number of oscillations (or waves) per second of the electric and magnetic fields within the radio waves portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. It is the lowest of the electromagnetic radiation frequencies within the spectrum (ranging from radio waves, microwaves, infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays to gamma rays). By applying RF energy to the human body, which can conduct current and therefore act as part of the electrical circuit, any resistance encountered by the energy flow will cause heat to be produced at the site of maximum resistance which can be used to coagulate tissue. RF energy is able to penetrate deeper into the skin and affect the deeper dermis and subcutaneous layers, causing tightening and improvements to the underlying tissue structure. The second Ultrasonic RF (Radio Frequency) Head which operates at 0.5MHz is used for exhausting the integrated glycerol and free fatty acids and toxins from the body through the sweat glands, hepatoenteral circulation and lymph glands and ultimately achieves the effect of dissolving fat. These waves carry heat and energy deep into the skin creating an endothermic effect that has a positive effect on the lymphatic and vascular systems and on the adiposeconnective structures. This improves draining, accelerates fat metabolism, stimulates fibroblasts resulting in effective skin firming and improves the tone. Radio Frequency treatments enable excellent results to be achieved also at the skin surface in the fight against cellulite, skin relaxation and stretch marks, as they stimulate the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid, leading to a rebalance of the epidermis in body treatments. The dissolved fat consisting of water soluble glycerol is absorbed by the circulatory system and used as energy, whereas the insoluble free fatty acids are transported to the liver and processed as fatty acids from food and leave the body via the liver and through faeces and urine within 2 to 3 weeks after the procedure. What is Bio Electrode & Red Photon Therapy? The third part of the treatment the oriented liposuction electrode pads with red photon colour spectrum stimulates and tightens and firms the area helping to sculpture the body. The electrode energy of the equipment produces biology waves to stimulate the body s relevant points. The different frequencies and pulses of the electrode pads stimulate the fat and exercise the body and exhaust the heat energy which continues to dissolve fat tissue and consume the fat energy. The bio electrodes promote lymphatic circulation and body metabolism and help to excrete toxins and fatty acids out of the body which helps to sculpture the body. Skin exposure to the red light photon LEDs has anti-aging benefits. Red photon therapy activates skin cells, stimulates fibroblasts producing new collagen under the skin and tightens the skin and reduces age spots and wrinkles. When used in synergy with radio frequency and ultrasound it improves skin tone and tissue elasticity.
