Does Radio Frequency Treatment Need Combined with Ultrasound Lipo Cavitation for it to Work?

RF and ultrasonic "lipo cavitation" must be done together to work! HOGWASH!

Each treatment should be able to stand alone as appropriate, and there are indeed some technologies that are appropriately "additive" in their effects. But to "require" a patient to do both treatments in order to "promise" effectiveness is disingenuous at best, and unethical at worst. And just what is ultrasonic lipo "cavitation"? Why not call it ultrasonic lipo "emulsification"? (This is just another hype or "marketing"... more

Liposuction does not need another treatment to work

Ultrasonic liposuction needs the aspiration, or removal of fat, involved with the liposuction done at the same time of the ultrasonic energy, but one does not need to provide any other energy, whether radiofrequency, or laser to assist liposuction.
