Cavitation
Cavitation is a non-surgical local slimming method that aims to break down fat cells under the skin using ultrasonic sound waves. Low-frequency sound waves produced by the device create vibrations within fat cells, helping to break them down (lipo-destruction). The broken down fats are then eliminated from the body through the lymphatic system and liver.
