Ultrashape - cosmetic treatment

Ultrashape is new development in cosmetic surgery offering a painless alternative to liposuction. Ultrasound waves, similar to those used during pregnancy scans, are used to break down fat cells.

A hand-held transducer delivers these powerful, directed ultrasound beams over body, and the beam destroys fat cells. The broken down fat cells are naturally absorbed by the body's white blood cells.

The Ultrashape treatment takes between 1 hour to 1.5 hours, depending on the size of the area to be treated. In most cases, you can can return home immediately after the procedure. There are no serious risks associated with the Ultrashape although some people such as pregnant women or those with have high cholesterol may be not suitable for the treatment.

Ultrashape costs in the region of $1000 for a small area of the body but obviously the more fat you want to target, the more expenive it becomes. It may cost a little more than standard liposuction but the risks and potential for complications are much lower.
