For most people, the only proven way to zap fat was liposuction. But now, there are slimming teas, herbal pills and fad diets that trim the body down from extra-large to extra-sexy. But if you really want to lose stubborn flabby areas without invasive treatments, try Marie France’s UltraShape.
Dig this, 37-year-old actress Dawn Zulueta-Lagdameo gave birth to her first child last year. Just like what every woman goes through after childbirth, she had to deal with the extra pounds she gained during her pregnancy. Her quest to be sexy again was on.
"After I gave birth to Jacobo, I was very frustrated that I could not do much with my excess weight," says Dawn. "Since they performed Caesarean on me, I could not do any strenuous activities. I already contemplated getting liposuction as a desperate measure."
The thing is, liposuction apparently has a lot of cons. Aside from being expensive and quite dangerous, a person who goes through this procedure may get uneven, ripple-like curves with sagging skin and lots of fat hits and misses. And, oh, not to mention the downtime. Scary, huh?
Dawn opted for something less traumatic, like UltraShape. This is a surgery-free body-contouring treatment that effectively and safely reduces unsightly fat deposits. Compared to other desperate weight-loss measures, UltraShape requires no downtime, no anesthesia, and no healing period. Patients can immediately get back to their daily routines.
All women have this problem of body fat storage. No matter how many hours we work out or go on a diet, we have to deal with our own set of bulges. UltraShape focuses on difficult-to-lose fatty areas like the abdomen, outer thighs or saddle bags and, of course, love handles.
"The UltraShape treatment takes an hour and a half and is done once a month," explains Dawn. "Four to five treatments are normally recommended per area. You will see the results as early as the first treatment and lose at least two centimeters."
The doctor will mark out trouble spots and use the computer to line up each shot. So, how exactly does it work? According to Dr. Ariel S. Torres of Marie France, UltraShape makes use of ultrasound waves, which are designed to break down fat cells without harming neighboring tissues.
Imagine fat cells as a bunch of grapes. UltraShape will break down each grape, or fat cell. If you are wondering what will happen to the split fat, it will be metabolized by the body. Meaning, the body will burn it as energy.
"The beauty of UltraShape is that it is safe. You can’t go wrong with the computer," enthuses Dawn. "I didn’t exercise because I didn’t have time. But thank God, I had Marie France treatments and I just watched what I ate."
Being one of the first to try UltraShape, Dawn is really happy with the results. She lost three inches on her tummy but still has to work on her saddle bags. With her re-sculpted body of a 20-something woman, she can proudly show off her curves in a bikini. Without a sarong, that is.
Hey, gals, we really owe it to ourselves to look good, hot and sexy no matter how young or old we are. With this newfound confidence, it removes all forms of self-pity and insecurities that prevent us from having a blast in life.
Just look at Dawn.
"Every woman can achieve a sexy body if she only sets her mind to it," concludes Dawn. "There are so many choices out there and Marie France offers a lot, especially with UltraShape. It offers safe and effective solutions for unwanted bumps that won’t go away."
Definitely the lipo without the suction or the fat-loss cure without exercising.
