Emtone for Cellulite

Almost all of us have cellulite, especially women. Ugh! 80-90% of women develop cellulite after puberty whereas only 10% of men have it. And let me be perfectly clear.....being overweight is not THE cause so stop beating yourself up. Cellulite can appear anywhere but is most common on the butt, thighs and tummy. 


The cause of cellulite is multifactorial and represents a chronic inflammatory process.  Cellulite forms when fibrous bands connecting your skin to the underlying muscle tighten irregularly. This tightening pulls down on your skin, and the layer of fat beneath the skin pushes upward. This results in a puckered appearance to the skin.

In women the subcutaneous tissue connects to the muscles differently than in men. In men, the fibers that make up the connective bands crisscross together. In women, the fibers that make up the connective bands run the same direction and are an equal distance apart. (see above) These "parallel"  bands may show puckering more than crisscross bands. Hormonal factors play a role too. Higher amounts of estrogen cause cellulite. Cellulite often develops more rapidly when women produce more estrogen, like during adolescence or pregnancy.  A high-calorie diet that features a lot of carbs, fats, salt and preservatives can also contribute to the development of more cellulite. And since cellulite is a chronic inflammatory process, it can be made worse by smoking which diminishes blood flow to the area and weakens the formation of collagen. 

Again, cellulite is a chronic inflammatory process, therefore it can be hard to get rid of and keep away. Treatments include liposuction, Qwo, and Cellfina for example, all of which can work but have their associated costs, swelling, bruising and down time. There are multiple at home devices and other noninvasive medical devices as well, none of which we have been very satisfied with in the past. Until now.......

Emtone is the first and only device that delivers both thermal and mechanical energy to treat all the contributing factors to cellulite. In clinical studies Emtone showed a 93% visible reduction in cellulite. 

It is appropriate for all skin and body types. It is completely noninvasive, painless, requires no downtime and requires no anesthesia. We sell Emtone in a package of 4 that usually last 20-30 minutes for each treatment and are done 1 or 2 times per week. Many many people see results after the first treatment. Results typically continue to improve over the next few months as well. 

With this monopolar radiofrequency combined with a targeted pressure energy and  mechanical effect, after an Emtone treatment the size of the fat chambers are diminished. Collagen begins to remodel. Blood flow to the area is enhanced and skin elasticity is restored. Plus, there is an increase in metabolic waste removal.

It's very popular to combine an Emtone package with an EmsculptNeo package (see previous blog on EmsculptNeo)  Both are noninvasive and painless; they can remove fat, build & tone muscle plus treat cellulite. 501-228-6237

We look forward to helping you achieve some of your goals!

Emsculpt Neo

We are so excited to introduce one of our new devices! EMSULPT NEO! We were able to offer noninvasive permanent fat loss with SculpSure, but now we can offer better permanent fat loss painlessly AND build and tone muscle in multiple areas of the body at the same time! BMI up to 35 can benefit unlike other devices!

EMSCULPT NEO is the only non-invasive technology that simultaneously uses Radiofrequency (RF) and HIFEM+ (high intensity focused electromagnetic field) to permanently eliminate fat and build muscle. This results in more fat reduction and more muscle growth than with any other single device. Due to the RF heating, EMSCULPT NEO is the only aesthetic procedure that works out heated muscles, similar to what a warm up activity does before any workout. Fat destruction temperature is reached in less than 4 minutes. Bypassing brain limitations, HIFEM+ energy contracts muscle fibers at intensities not achievable during a voluntary workout. On average muscle volume increases by 25% and fat decreases by 30%.

The synchronized RF is the only patented radiofrequency heating in the world that works simultaneously within a magnetic field. HIFEM+ is the #1 muscle sculpting technology and the Emsculpt Neo has newly designed protocols that operate simultaneously with the RF heating. It offers the fastest thermal effect on the market, with settings that are fully adjustable.


Check out this patient testimonial:

Reproducible results are supported by 7 new clinical studies in more than 500 patients and 30 peer-reviewed HIFEM publications since 2018 with more than 30 investigators. This makes HIFEM the most intensively researched technology used in non-invasive body shaping. These results were proven by ultrasound, MRI and electron microscopy.

Multiple applicators allow for effective treatment of multiple body parts including abdomen, buttocks, inner thighs, outer thighs, front of thighs, back of thighs, biceps, triceps, and calves. The temperature and intensity of muscle contractions is customizable to each patient and the computer saves all information from previous treatments.

Treatments are usually done in a series of 4-6 sessions approximately a week apart. Call for your appointment today! 501-228-6237. Individual treatments are available, but only recommended for maintenance of results. Treatment packages are needed to achieve optimal results. Price varies depending on area treated and number of treatments. We will go over that with you when you call! 501-228-6237

Emsella


One of our newest devices at Sei Bella Med Spa is also one of our most exciting ones! As a med spa we like to focus on health and wellness, not just beauty. Emsella offers just that. It is FDA approved to treat urinary incontinence in women AND men. It is completely noninvasive and you get to stay fully clothed!

Emsella strengthens all the pelvic floor muscles with HIFEM technology (High Intensity Focused Electromagnetic Energy). it's like doing 11,000 Kegels in one 28 minute session.

BTL has performed multiple studies with multiple providers. An article published in Lasers and Surgery in Medicine, 2019 reported that on average 64.42% of patients showed improvement in their ICIQ-UI score (a score of incontinence severity) and 53.68% decrease in absorbent pad use. 34.3% considered themselves completely cured. 64.29% of patients reported less leakage with sleeping. 44.19% reported they did not need to use absorbent pads at all! This study was done in patients who received 6 treatments.

Another study published in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgery Journal, December 19, 2019 showed significant improvement of pelvic floor integrity proven by 3D ultrasound. Treated patients achieved a 3X higher level of improvement in their PDFI-20 questionnaire (another marker of improvement in symptoms.) All assessment methods showed the HIFEM technology (Emsella) is more effective than electrostimulation for treatment of weakened pelvic floor muscles.

Now let's talk about sexual wellness. Emsella is not FDA approved to improve sexual wellness, orgasms, etc., HOWEVER, studies are showing it works very well in this area! A study presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery 2021, reported on 33 females (around 50 years of age) who showed decreased interest in sexual activity accompanied by urinary incontinence. Both desire and incontinence improved. Makes sense doesn't it? I mean who wants to dribble during sex?! Their ICIQ-UI (see above) score decreased by 61%. FSFI score (sexual function score) increased by 33%. PISQ-12 (another continence, sexual wellness questionnaire) increased significantly by 24%. Patients also benefited from increased sexual desire, improved lubrication, and orgasmic response.


If you're ready to stop dribbling when you cough, laugh or sneeze., ready to stop using pads, sitting with your legs crossed all the time, or having to carry around a change of clothes......give us a call! Emsella may be a great option for you!

Coming Soon! Oxygeneo 3 -in-1 Super Facial!

oxygeneo2.jpg

 

 

We are very excited to announce that in July we will be adding new lasers and the Oxygeneo facial!

 

This second blog in a series discusses our new Oxygeneo facial:

The geneO+ is a new platform that redefines how we do facial treatments with the combined innovative OxyGeneo and ultrasound technologies. One device, one treatment to exfoliate, oxygenate, and infuse.

oygeneo2.jpg

 

Exfoliate: A Capsugen tablet exfoliates the upper skin layer to remove dead cells, smooth and renew the skin.

Infuse:  And this Capsugen action prepares the skin to receive active nutrients. 

Oxygenate: After infusion of nutrients, carbon dioxide bubbles are produced that gently burst on the skin sending oxygen rich blood to the treated areas. This process increases capillary blood flow and increases the skin's metabolism.

Ultrasound: finally we use ultrasound waves to penetrate below the surface of the skin. The ultrasound vibrations increase the permeability of the upper layer of the skin which is generally not very permeable at all. This even further assists the skin in absorbing essential ingredients.

How many treatments will you need?

We did our demo session on a current patient of ours who has significant rosacea and was currently having a flare. She noticed improvement immediately! To get the best results, though, you are going to want to do a series of treatments. Our aesthetician, Monica, will advise you on how many you need based on the severity of the condition you're trying to correct.

What can you expect after a treatment? Any downtime?

After your Oygeneo 3- in-1 facial your skin is going to feel so refreshed and rejuvenated! The treatment doesn't hurt and there is no downtime! You can resume your daily routine immediately. However, it's very important to use quality skincare products, like Epionce, to maintain your results.

Can any skin tone have an Oxygeneo facial?

Yes! Oxygeneo can benefit all skin types and tones!

How long will a treatment take?

Usually the treatment takes 30 minutes after your consult, your face is cleaned and a good skin evaluation is done.

We look forward to seeing you soon! 501-228-6237

New Laser Hair Removal Coming to Sei Bella Med Spa in July!

Lightsheer3.png

We are very excited to announce that in July we will be adding new lasers and the Oxygeneo facial!

This first blog in a series will discuss laser hair removal:

We will be able to offer hair removal with our new LightSheer laser! Many of you have asked for laser hair removal, but everyone always complains about how much it hurts. I actually had a treatment on my legs and underarms with the Lumenis LightSheer and it was very comfortable! During the demo we actually had to turn the power up because I have coarse, dark hair. And the whole thing only took 10 minutes!

The Lumenis LightSheer is 75% faster than the average hair reduction session, and what makes it so comfortable are the unique HIT and ChillTip technologies that greatly increase comfort. The HIT technology incorporates suction to elevate and stretch the skin. This causes maximum absorption into the hair follicles and fast coverage of large areas.The ChillTip uses a proprietary cooling system that momentarily numbs the skin which decreases discomfort as well.

 

Lightsheer.jpg

Multiple treatments are required to achieve permanent hair reduction. (NOTHING removes 100% of hair FOREVER). We have to treat the hair follicle in the early growth phase of the hair (anagen phase). Not all hairs are in the same phase at a given time, thus the reason multiple treatments are needed. Usually 4-6 treatments achieve excellent results.

 

hairremoval.jpg
hairremoval1.jpg

The appearance of the treated area varies from person to person. During the treatment, some hairs shed from their follicles immediately, while remaining ones will shed in the following weeks. A little swelling and redness around the hair follicle may appear immediately after the treatment and this is a GOOD sign indicating the treatment is working. My legs looked like they had a small a small amount of razor burn for about 12 hours, but absolutely no discomfort! And I can already tell a difference after one treatment!

Stay tuned for the exact date in July that we will start! You can call us to be added to the list of the first ones we schedule! 501-228-6237

Epionce Lytic Tx Products Reduce Sebaceous Hyperplasia

SebaceousHyperplasia.jpg

 

Sebaceous hyperplasia is hypertrophy (overgrowth) of the entire sebaceous gland. These lesions are benign, but bothersome, and can become severe. They are characterized by yellowish papules, and sometimes actual nodules on the forehead, nose and cheeks. They are most common in middle aged, elderly and acne-prone people. There haven't been a lot of available treatments other than topical retinoids (think retin-A) which tend to dry the skin out and cause aggravating flaking.
 

sebaceoushyperplasia 3.jpg
sebaceoushyperplasia2.jpg

However, a recent study has shown that the Epionce skincare products, Lytic Tx and Lite Lytic Tx have been very effective in treating sebaceous hyperplasia. A controlled clinical trial done with human volunteers (Epionce never does animal testing) showed visible improvement or complete resolution of the lesions. Epionce products are botanical based. The Lytic Tx products have keratolytic activity (meaning they break up these nodules and papules) and prevent the release and activation of inflammatory factors in the skin.
 

Epionce8.jpg

Epionce products do not contain teas, soy, vitamins, retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids or traditional antioxidants. They are formulated for elderly, infant, atopic and sensitive skin, individuals with outdoor lifetstyle and occupations, including those that live in harsh environments and climates. Despite their effectiveness, they are very well tolerated with only a .01% sensitivity rate across the brand. Give us a call today.....501-228-6237
