Customers are excited about a new, non-invasive treatment that promises to eliminate belly fat and show results after just one session.
Non-invasive fat loss treatment is used by clinics to target areas of the body where a person wants to lose excess fat, and as people reject weight loss products like Ozempic, it could be the solution they are looking for. .
SV Aesthetics in Mayfair, London, has revealed how the 3-in-1 radiofrequency treatment works by breaking down fat and encouraging muscle toning, and shared success stories from some very satisfied customers.
The most common areas treated are the stomach, arms, legs, butt lift and jawline, with a typical stomach treatment lasting 40 minutes and sessions spaced a week apart.
The treatment could be a welcome alternative to Ozempic, which has become one of the hottest trends of 2024, with celebrities around the world using the diabetes drug to help lose unwanted weight.
SV Aesthetics, in Mayfair, London, uses a 3-in-1 non-invasive fat loss treatment that uses a combination of radiofrequency and dynamic muscle activation to stimulate fat breakdown, muscle toning and skin tightening on a specific area, with results seen in just one session (pictured Amy, 32, before (left) and after (right) three sessions)

‘I had given birth to my third child at 40 and no matter how much exercise I did, I couldn’t get that last bit of fat off my stomach. I also found that the skin on my abdomen needed some tightening as well.
‘I have seen Susan for a treatment on my stomach and now do follow-up treatments once a month to maintain the fantastic results.
‘I’m an average size 10/12 but I wanted my stomach to be tighter and less wrinkled. The exercise just wasn’t working.
I expected the treatment results to be quick and it certainly made a big difference after the first treatment.
‘I look and feel more toned, the skin on my stomach is tighter and now, at 50, I feel fantastic! The clothes definitely fit better and I feel confident and comfortable in a bikini.”
Recently, leading doctors have warned about the long list of side effects that come with taking Ozempic: from intestinal blockages, changes in vision, low blood sugar, bad breath, dry mouth, changes in taste, dental problems, nausea, constipation and diarrhea.
The most common side effect of the injections, which have been linked to more than 100 deaths in the US, is “Ozempic face,” which is due to rapid and dramatic weight loss that can leave patients with a haggard appearance, sagging and aged facial skin. .
However, non-invasive fat loss treatment is touted as a safer way to lose weight quickly by using radiofrequency, which is a proven way to help break down fat and has been used in the medical industry for more. 60 years old.
The SV Aesthetics machine has all its medical technical documents, which means it has gone through all its clinical trials to ensure its safety.
A minimum of four sessions is recommended for those wishing to focus on fat breakdown, but clients can see results from the first session.
A single appointment for the stomach, sides and hips costs £220 per session. a four-session course costs £800.
The treatment is also very different to Cool Sculpting or any fat freezing technology, as it is a heat stream that penetrates deep into the fat cells and helps metabolize and break down fat from within the fat cells.
No damage is done to the cells and fat is excreted from the cells during the 40-minute session and for 48 hours afterwards.
How the treatment works
Susan Vaughan, clinic owner and practitioner, said: ‘A gel is applied to the area of the body being worked on, say the stomach. We use the big handpiece of the machine to heat the skin to 40-42 degrees, the radio frequency current penetrates to the adipose layer of the skin, the fat cells start to reach 70-72 degrees.
‘What’s inside the cells (hard, stubborn fat) begins to liquefy and break down. We then introduce the muscle activation setting – this begins to contract and pulse the muscles underneath the fat cells.

‘I always had a hard time keeping weight on my stomach. After turning 44 I could no longer lose fat easily. I knew I didn’t want to go down the path of surgical liposuction.’
‘With non-surgical liposuction there was no downtime and I was in and out within 40 minutes once a week.
‘It’s not the most comfortable but you get used to it and it doesn’t hurt. Just a different sensation and after the second or third treatment it no longer bothers you at all.
‘After eight sessions I noticed a big difference, it was great to see the before and after photos.
‘People who haven’t seen me for a while are really surprised. I’ve had a lot of ‘where do I go to get this’. Two friends have already signed up to start treatment.’

‘I felt frustrated by the looser skin and the small amount of fat in my abdomen after pregnancy that I simply couldn’t get rid of with diet and exercise. He didn’t want perfection, just a little help.
‘Although I didn’t find it a relaxing spa experience, I felt no pain or discomfort and was able to take that window of the day to myself.
‘I was surprised, I didn’t expect to see such a change in my definition right away.
‘My body size didn’t change, but how I felt about myself did. I’m taller and I don’t worry as much about wearing a 2 piece swimsuit. I feel more comfortable being in my body and proud of what there is that doesn’t go away.’
‘As there is external pressure from the handle and internal pressure from the contracting muscles, we create a compression effect on the cells, which helps expel the broken down fat from the cells.
She continued: ‘There is no damage to the fat cells and your body will metabolise the fat through the lymphatic system or use the fat for energy.
‘Dynamic muscle activation also helps to retrain and tone muscles, which helps keep your stomach in and gives you a beautifully toned look.
‘As well as breaking down fat and toning muscles, radiofrequency works to tighten the skin as it penetrates to the deepest layers of the skin and contracts fibroblasts, which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. So as you lose inches, your skin stays nice and firm.
‘There is no downtime after treatment; many of my clients come for a 40 minute session during their lunch hour. It is recommended to drink plenty of water after the treatment, as this helps reactivate the lymphatic system, which helps eliminate broken down fat.
During a face-to-face consultation, the practitioner, who often shares incredible before and after results on her Instagram account @sv_aesthetics_mayfair, can advise clients on how many sessions they think would be best for them.
On average, people can see results from the first session, however, sometimes it may take a few sessions to gain the momentum needed to break down fat.
