1. Mandatory water consumption: 1.5-2 liters of water per day throughout the slimming course.

During this period, if the amount of water is conscientiously controlled, healthy water consumption becomes a habit and a person transitions their diet to be more beneficial.

Consequently, decreasing the amount of consumed food will positively contribute to the client’s metabolism acceleration and weight loss goals.

 2. Stabilization of dietary regime: During the slimming course, it is recommended to eat lighter meals at frequent intervals rather than eating a few heavy meals. This habit has positive effects on the client’s body shape and overall health.

3. It’s not recommended to eat carbs 2 hours before or 2 hours after the procedure, but patients may snack lightly on yogurt or berries. This habit has the same advantages as staying hydrated and maintaining proper food intake.

 4. Minimal physical activity during the day: steady cardio training or a 30-minute walk per day accelerates metabolism, helps reduce swelling, and provokes the quick excretion of cell dissolution products after CoolRestore. This habit also restores muscle tone which impacts body contour and skin elasticity. Additionally, this is a great preventative measure against future swelling and cellulite.

5. Lymphatic massage: After every cavitation procedure, a beauty therapist must provide the client with a crucial massage to stimulate lymphatic drainage.

Vacuum Application Contraindications: 

Diabetes– the body’s inability or lowered ability to regulate blood sugar and fat levels can significantly hinder the proper removal of fat cell contents from the lymphatic system, thus lowering the overall effectiveness of the treatments

Thyroid problems– thyroid regulates overall metabolism of the body, thus it can deter the proper disposal of fat contents from the body, and hence also lower the overall effectiveness of the treatments

Current or history of skin cancer or pre-malignant moles– In order to avoid and prevent any further irritation to these conditions treatment of body areas with these conditions should not be performed. We recommend you talk with your physician before committing to any treatment.

Any active skin conditions– It is best to schedule treatment when any skin conditions in treatment areas such as sores, psoriasis, eczema, herpes and rashes are no longer active to avoid and prevent any further irritation of skin.

Alcohol and Caffeine– These substances will slow down lymphatic drainage of fatty acids and toxins. For best results, please try to avoid or reduce your intake of products that contain them during the course of treatment.

Infection in the urinary system i.e. kidneys, bladder and urethra

Crohn’s Disease 

Hyperthyroidism  

Deep Venous Thrombosis  

Lymphedema 

Patient Aftercare
What to Expect During and Immediately After the Treatment:

  • After the session, the patient’s skin may experience temporary irritation, redness, or tightness. These reactions are all normal, and may typically resolve within 48-72 hours depending on your skin sensitivity.
  • The majority of the session customers see the results immediately after treatment and their skin may feel tighter and toned with appropriate home care to maintain treatment results.
  • The session treatments are recommended every one to two weeks depending on the skin type and condition for optimal results.
  • Patient experiences may vary. Some people may experience a delayed onset of the previously mentioned symptoms.
  • Patients should avoid excessive sun exposure and use a minimum of SPF 40 sunscreen.
  • It is also recommended that the patient drink plenty of water to keep your body and skin hydrated.
Machine Maintenance

The maintenance required for this system is:

  • to keep the external filter clean and dry
  • to keep the handpicks clean, disinfected, and dry
  • To keep the screen clean and dry.

The external filter is conveniently located on the back of the machine.

Filter Care, Removal & Replacement

Between Procedures Filter Care

• Check and clean the filter every week (once a week).
• If there is any oil inside the filter, please detach it from the system and unscrew the top part
• Empty any waste content from the clear canister, wipe clean, pat dry, and attach it back together

• Be careful not to lose the clear rubber seal inside the rim of the filter canister cover.
• Reinstall the filter to the back of the system.

• Ensure to plug the filter all the way in the backside of the system.

  •  Do not attempt to use the filter if it is not completely dry!

Filter Replacement
Even with routine washing, over time the filter will become clogged with waste materials which block off vacuum pressure. When this occurs a decrease in performance will be noticed resulting in less effective treatments.

  •  Remove the old filter and dispose of it as required by local and federal laws
  •  Install a new filter and replace the filter canister cover making sure that the rubber seal is clean and in place.

Handpieces cleansing and sanitation

After every service wipe all the handpieces clean from any remaining gel or oil
