Reduce Cellulite
Cellulite Reduction
With Arctic Contour, there's finally a real, non invasive solution to help you to reduce stubborn cellulite. Cold temperatures widen the blood vessels, increasing oxygen supply. This boosts collagen production which breaks down cellulite, leaving you with smooth, dimple free skin.
Fat Freezing & Slimming
Arctic Contour capable of causing thermal shock and alternate rapidly between periods of skin warming and cooling. Heat allows for the fat cells to rise to the surface which are then quickly targeted in a cold treatment of each area.
Natural Neck & Facelift
The Arctic Contour uses cold temperature to cause vasodilation in the blood vessels (widening of the blood vessel) in the face. This extra blood flow helps collagen production reducing the appearance of wrinkles. It also reduces pore size and improves the elasticity of the skin.
Revitalizing Beauty
A natural, non-invasive way to shape, slim and tone the body,
and look younger and more radiant.
Science that Works
The Arctic Contour consists of a special developed technique where warm and cold are used and applied directly to the client’s skin. Subcutaneous fat cells are naturally more vulnerable to the effects of cold than other surrounding tissue. Exposure to cooling causes fat cell apoptosis – a natural, controlled cell death, which leads to the release of cytokines and other inflammatory mediators that gradually eliminate the affected cells. Inflammatory cells gradually digest the affected fat cells in the months after the procedure, reducing the thickness of the fat layer. Lipids from the fat cells are slowly released and transported by the lymphatic system to be processed and eliminated by about 15% to 30% over 12 weeks.
Fat loss and cellulite reduction
The many different functions and processes which take place in the body are caused by chemical reactions occurring between hormones and receptors. These are carried around the body by the blood. The areas of the body which have a lot of fat, tend to have a poor blood supply. This means that the blood borne hormones which trigger lipolysis – the break down of fat – are actually unable to reach the fat cells and therefore, the fat can’t be broken down. It also means that mobilized fat can’t get away from the fat cell to be burned elsewhere in the body. Cryostimulation cools the surface of the skin very rapidly. The body reacts to this extreme cold by turning up its metabolic rate to produce heat. The blood vessels in the area widen, leading to an increase in blood flow, allowing the hormones in the blood to reach the fat cells and break down the fat. This also improves lymphatic drainage in the area, which helps to reduce cellulite.
3 STAGES OF CELLULITE
Stage 1
AQUEOUS CELLULITE
This type is caused by water retention due to poor blood and lymphatic circulation. It is important to drain toxins and reactivate circulatory exchanges.
Stage 2
ADIPOSE CELLULITE
This type of cellulite is often associated with excess weight. It is necessary to stimulate natural fat release.
Stage 3
FIBROUS CELLULITE
This type is harder to get rid of because it has been present for a long time, is compact and often painful. The tissues must first be softened before fibrous cellulite can be removed.
