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.

Intense mental activity, calorie burning and cellulite - Part II

Go to Part I of this article

 

The energy needs of the brain

In Part I of our article on intense mental activity and fat accumulation we described how the brain is an energy-hungry organ that consumes more than one-fifth of our daily calorie allowance. In this second part of our article we are describing how intense thinking indirectly leads to futher calorie burning and we are examining if it can also prevent or reduce cellulite.

 

Intense thinking and metabolism

On the other hand, intense thinking will almost definitely lead to increased noradrenaline/dopamine release and consequent nervous alertness/tension, which will in turn increase the overall whole-body metabolism and the consumption of even more calories. At the moment no studies exist to quantify the effect of intense thinking on the overall increase of metabolic rate, so this information can only be speculative, but the truth is that people who think a lot (or worry a lot!) tend to generally be slimmer than people who don't need to think very hard or people who ...“take it easy”. Of course, a whole lot of other factors are involved in staying slim/getting fat, including diet, exercise, general daily physical activity and genetic predisposition, but generally speaking intense thinking most probably helps us stay a bit thinner.

However, calorie burning in the brain, and the consequent increased metabolic rate, do not lead to the increased muscle mass that exercise offers (muscle consumes a high amount of energy, even when at rest), neither it improves aerobic capacity or overall health (although it obviously does improve mental ability).

Intense mental effort and cellulite

Of course, intense thinking does not protect from cellulite, even though it may lead to a moderate decrease in fat accumulation, a major component of cellulite. This is because when we think intensely (i.e. studying, working in front of the computer for hours on end etc.) we tend to sit on our bums, thereby minimising circulation and mechanical stimulation in the areas most prone to developing cellulite: the buttocks and the back of the thighs! Poor circulation leads to water retention (an important aspect of cellulite), while lack of mechanical stimulation leads to lack of skin firmness and overall skin tissue weakness/flabbiness (another important cause of cellulite). Therefore, we can safely conclude that studying/intense mental work does increase cellulite even though it most probably moderately boosts energy consumption.

In fact, this conclusion agrees to loads of anecdotal evidence, which shows that women with sedentary occupations that involve hard thinking (i.e. researchers, students, traders, bankers etc.) may sometimes be slim, but almost always suffer from loose skin and cellulite...

 

As a practical note...

...if you do have to be stuck in front of your computer for hours on end, do not expect your hard brain's work to keep your skin in good shape, even if you don’t snack on sweets and other “brain candy”. Instead, try to undo the damage that sitting on your bum causes to your bum, by doing at least 30’ of exercise a day (power plate is the best for this specific purpose), daily applying a quality anti-cellulite cream and, if you can afford it, try to regularly receive a good cellulite treatment that will provide some much needed mechanical stimulation to the skin of your bum and thighs.

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.
