95% Treatment Effectiveness

Meso-CRF offers *impressive results in comparison to the majority of radiofrequency, cavitation and needle-free mesotherapy treatments, because of it's high specifications and because it simultaneously combines these three techniques, also saving you time and money. These results occur when the treatment is combined with diet, exercise and alcohol avoidance.

However, nothing biological can be guaranteed by any method, surgical or non-surgical, including Meso-CRF. Our success rate after 12 sessions is about 95%, with a small percentage of women not experiencing satisfactory results in 12 sessions unless a large number of sessions is undertaken. This is usually due to the fact that many women continue being sedentary, drinking alcohol and overeating, thereby producing new cellulite whilst attempting to reduce it with a treatment... It is apparent that under such circumstances any anti-cellulite, slimming or toning treatment may not be effective.

In a very small number of cases satisfactory results are not produced in 12 sessions even if the client exercises and diets. Fortunately, after 500 sessions in the last 5 months we have only had two such cases, but we cannot guarantee that it will not happen again, as we do not pretend to be God (nothing biological can be guaranteed).

What we can guarantee, however, is that we will offer the most powerful and comprehensive anti-cellulite, fat-reducing and skin tightening treatment available, combined with our extensive knowledge and experience, to offer the best possible results to all our clients. And if after the end of your course a client needs a few extra sessions to achieve maximum results we will be happy to offer her a reduced price for those extra sessions so that she achieves those results!

 

99.6% Treatment Safety

The last 5 months we have provided 500+ Meso-CRF sessions and we only had 2 cases of mild swelling/irritation, which dissipated in about a week. The remainder 498+ sessions went smoothly with no problems whatsoever, so we can safely state that our treatments are 99.6% side-effect free!

 

Diet and exercise are essential

Naturally, you would not expect to lose cellulite/localised fat if you continued doing the things that caused the cellulite/local fat accumulation in the first place, i.e. poor diet, inactivity and/or drinking. It is biologically impossible for any body reshaping treatment to be effective under those circumstances, so we cannot emphasise enough the importance of diet, exercise and alcohol avoidance duting your course of treatments. Ideally, you should be losing half a pound of weight per week in order to maximise the effects of the treatment.

Which works best for cellulite: radiofrequency, ultrasound cavitation, cellulite-specific massage or mesotherapy?

What works for cellulite

The most effective options for cellulite reduction are high-power ultrasound cavitation treatment, high-power monopolar radiofrequency treatment, no-needle mesotherapy treatment (if a highly concentrated gel with several active ongredients is used) and vigorous cellulite-specific massage. Low intensity ultrasound, low intensity RF, bipolar RF, mesotherapy is diluted commercial gels and literally any other technique, are not worth bothering about, as they are either ineffective, inefficient or intrusive.

Examples of such methods comprise low level laser therapy (LLLT), infrared LED, mechanical massage (such as vacuum suction/palper-rouler or vibration massage/G5), any other massage technique (including the old-fashioned manual lymphatic drainage massage), injection-based mesotherapy, acoustic wave therapy and other gimmicks.

Fortunately for you, we have tried/assessed almost every cellulite treatment available today (so you don't have to) and concluded that only three things work, offer good value for money and are not intrusive/nasty to your health.

 

The choice is between three techniques: strong cellulite-specific massage, high-power ultrasound cavitation and high-power, cooled, monopolar radiofrequency

Intensive cellulite-specific massage (ICSM) works on all aspects of cellulite naturally and gradually, and offers great value for money. However, ICSM is a bit slow for some people's liking.

On the other hand high-power radiofrequency does work fast, but only if it is "monopolar" (as opposed to bipolar or multipolar), if it is "resistive" (as opposed to capacitive) and if the equipment used offers a cooling option (essential for safe, effective RF treatment). High-power ultrasound also works fast. The only problem with these techniques is that they are typically more expensive than ICSM, and they do not offer good value for money/time as stand-alone procedures.

A good solution is to simultaneously combine both radiofrequency and cavitation (a small number of machines allow such functionality) so that you can benefit from both technologies at the same cost. However, this only makes sense if the clinic does not charge you more for the combined treatment.

Furthermore, both ultrasound and radiofrequency exert a needle-free mesotherapy effect on the skin (they help boost absorption of active ingredients by the skin). Therefore, by applying one or both of those techniques with a good anti-cellulite gel/cream you can benefit from the mesotherapy effect at no extra cost. Again, this only makes sense f the clinic uses a highly concentrated product and if they do not charge you extra for mesotherapy.

Needle-free mesotherapy does not make any sense at all as a stand-alone treatment, as it is not effective enough on it's own to justify the typically high cost charged for this technique. However, seen as an extra bonus of your RF and/or ultrasound treatment, no-needle mesotherapy makes perfect sense, provided that you are not charged additionally (or at least not too much).

So, in summary, we could say that the simultaneous application of a good RF treatment with a good ultrasound cavitation treatment makes perfect sense in terms of effectiveness and value for money and time. On the other hand, those treatments taken separately may be effective but they don't offer good value for time and money.

However, now the following question arises: what is better, cellulite-specific massage or simultaneous cavitation/radiofrequency/mesotherapy?

 

Intensive, cellulite-specific massage (ICSM)

Vigorous cellulite-specific massage is very effective for lymphatic drainage, blood circulation and detoxification, at is generally available a lower cost than SCRM. Cellulite-specific massage also boosts firmness and helps with cellulite fat loss, but not as impressively and not nearly ad fast as simultaneous cavitation, mesotherapy and radiofrequency. Therefore, it becomes apparent that vigorous cellulite-specific massage is ideal is speed of results is not a consideration and if you want cellulite reduction at a low cost, with emphasis on circulation enhancement and detoxification.

 

Simultaneous cavitation, radiofrequency and mesotherapy (SCRM)

The right cavitation, radiofrequency and mesotherapy treatment is more effective for skin tightening, for cellulite fat reduction and for overall faster results in one specific area, as we analysed in our dedicated radiofrequency/cavitation article. It also boosts circulation, but not as effectively as intensive cellulite massage does. On the other hand, SCRM is more expensive than intensive cellulite massage. Therefore, it becomes apparent that simultaneous mesotherapy, cavitation and radiofrequency is ideal if price is not a problem and if your main consideration for a cellulite treatment is fast and impressive cellulite reduction with emphasis on fast skin firming/lifting.

You can stay cellulite-free for life...

...if you exercise a lot, consume a healthy diet and avoid smoking, the contraceptive pill/other unnecessary drugs and excessive alcohol/coffee. The more you deviate from the above principles the higher your likelihood of developing cellulite or the need for quality cellulite treatments and cellulite creams to help you prevent/fight cellulite. If you already have had cellulite for more than a year, or if it is extensive, then quality creams and treatments (in combination with a cellulite-specific diet and exercise) are absolutely necessary: cellulite will not be eliminated only by diet and exercise if it has been established for a long time or if it is quite progressed.
