Candela UltraShape®?

Below, you’ll find pre-treatment and post-treatment guidelines to help you maximize the results of your UltraShape Power treatments.
72 Hours Before and After UltraShape Treatment
- Refrain from taking supplements that can increase the risk of bruising: Supplements to avoid include fish oil, omega-3 fatty acids, garlic, ginkgo biloba, and St. John’s wort. Please be sure to tell your UltraShape Power provider about your current medications and over-the-counter (OTC) supplements.
- Discuss with your physician about any medications you take: Some medications, including OTC products, can make the skin more prone to bruising. Please consult with your physician regarding any prescription or OTC medications before beginning UltraShape Power treatment.
- Avoid sunburns: A hand-held transducer is used to apply gentle pulses inside the defined treatment area. Prior to your treatment, avoid excessive sun exposure that may lead to sunburn, which makes the skin sensitive to the pulses.
- Treatment on inner thigh area: If you treatment areas include the inner thigh, brief style underwear is required. Please bring an extra pair of underwear to change into after the procedure.
- For men only: Please shave your abdomen and/or love handles to reduce body hair prior to treatment.
- Avoid consuming alcohol: Avoiding alcohol helps the liver to effectively process treated fat cells.
- Drink lots of water: Staying hydrated and drinking plenty of water will help the body metabolize damaged cells through your lymphatic system.
