Body Contouring 101: What You Need to Know About The Shaping Technology

Tired of exercising intensely without seeing the desired results? You're not alone!

Its should come as no surprise then that the demand for non-invasive body contouring or body shaping is higher than ever. With 63% of Australians over the age of 18 considered overweight or obese (that’s 2 out of 3), it's no surprise that many Aussies are seeking effective non-surgical fat reductionoptions. Consequently, the body contouring industry is booming, catering to around 12.5 million out-of-shape individuals in Australia.



Ultrasound Body Contouring

One of the most popular and enduring body contouring treatments available is Ultrasound Body Contouring. Also known as fat cavitation, this treatment is often paired with skin tightening and cellulite reduction. Typically, a comprehensive body contouring session will involve all three treatments to achieve the best possible results. Fat cavitation machines offer a convenient alternative to expensive and painful surgeries, effectively removing stubborn fat pockets that diet and exercise alone can't shift.

Body enhancement programs utilize the latest technology to deliver fast, visible results. The process involves applying heat and low-frequency sound waves to target areas with a body contouring machine, disrupting the fat cells and breaking down fatty tissue. This is then converted to liquid, dispersed throughout the body, and filtered out through the lymphatic system—your body’s natural filtration system. Ultrasound body contouring specifically targets fatty areas without affecting the surrounding skin tissue.



Radio frequency skin tightening involves applying heat to the dermal layers of the skin, causing the tissue to retract and resulting in smoother, tighter skin. Radio frequency machinees also stimulates collagen production, firming the skin over time and effectively treating stubborn fat pockets or cellulite.

One of the many benefits of non-surgical fat reduction is that treatments are quick, with absolutely no downtime post-appointment. These treatments are non-surgical and non-invasive, allowing clients to maintain their regular lifestyle with minimal disruption. Unlike liposuction or other surgical options, clients can undergo treatment during a lunch break and resume normal activities immediately. The sessions are painless and comfortable, making this an extremely convenient alternative to more painful and invasive treatments.


Virtually any part of the body can be targeted for toning or fat removal, including legs, thighs, upper arms, stomach, abdomen, buttocks, hips, and even the face (e.g., jowls). In addition to eliminating stubborn fat pockets and unsightly bulges, body contouring treatments can tighten and tone loose, sagging, or aging skin. Skin elasticity, firmness, and cellulite can all be effectively addressed thanks to improved lymphatic flow and increased circulation.


A clinician will work with you to assess your individual needs and develop a personalized plan targeting your specific problem areas. The number of treatments will vary based on factors such as the type and size of the area being treated. Typically, a course of 6-10 treatments is recommended, spaced about one week apart. Results can often be felt after the first session, with more noticeable improvements after the third session. The results are cumulative, so further improvements can be expected even after completing the program.



Practitioners often recommend 20 minutes of cardiovascular exercise post-treatment to encourage lymphatic drainage within the body. It's also highly advised to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water to help flush out dissolved fatty acids and aid the detoxification process.


Sometimes, a healthy lifestyle, balanced diet, and regular exercise aren't enough to achieve the desired body shape. If you need an extra boost to get in shape, treatments with body sculpting machines offer a comfortable, non-invasive, and convenient solution to enhance your physique and appearance without the pain, cost, and downtime associated with surgery.
