Step 1 — Prepare the Area
Apply a thin, even layer of DermaGene® Slimming & Firming Conductive Gel to clean, dry skin. Use enough gel to allow the treatment head to move smoothly throughout the session, and reapply if it begins to dry.
Step 2 — Cavitation Treatment
Select cavitation mode and begin at a comfortable intensity. Treat one area at a time, approximately the size of an A4 sheet.
Move the cavitation head slowly and continuously in circular motions for up to 40 minutes per area. Never hold the treatment head in one position.
A typical treatment course consists of 6–10 sessions per area .
Step 3 — Radiofrequency Treatment
Apply additional conductive gel if needed, then select RF mode.
Move the RF handpiece continuously across the skin using slow circular or upward motions. Continue until the area feels comfortably warm and may appear slightly pink. The treatment should never feel painful or excessively hot.
RF may be performed after cavitation during the same session or on a separate day.
Step 4 — After the Treatment
Remove any remaining gel and apply a gentle body moisturiser if desired. Mild temporary warmth or redness may occur and should gradually settle after the session.
For the best experience:
- Drink plenty of water before and after treatment.
- Keep the treatment head moving continuously.
- Begin at a lower intensity and increase gradually.
- Include light movement, such as walking, in your routine.
- Follow a balanced lifestyle and consistent treatment schedule.
Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before and after cavitation. There is no need to drink exactly three litres of water; regular hydration is sufficient.
Always follow the contraindications and treatment limits stated in the user manual. Detailed instructions are also available in the English and German manual and in the step-by-step video tutorial.
Treatment Protocols — Same Body Area
Choose your BodyContour protocol according to your experience. All frequencies below apply to the same body area.
Beginner: 1 cavitation treatment and 1 RF treatment per week.
Pro: 1 cavitation treatment and 1 RF treatment per week. Progress through technique and a comfortable intensity, rather than increasing treatment frequency.
Express: up to 2 cavitation treatments and 2 RF treatments per week on the same area. This is an intensive course for users who tolerate treatment comfortably; allow recovery between sessions.
Maintenance: 1 RF treatment per month. Cavitation is not a maintenance treatment.
Cavitation is used in courses only. Take a break after 2–3 months before considering a new course. Do not continue cavitation indefinitely.
Always apply sufficient conductive gel, keep the treatment head moving and follow the user manual’s treatment-time limits, contraindications and safety instructions. Individual results vary.
