What is Oxyjet Body Slim?
Oxyjet Body Slim uses oxygen coupled with blue and red light technology to reduce fat, minimize cellulite, correct skin pigmentation problems, restore sun-damaged skin, reduce acne and/or enhance bust and lip size. Body Slim is a more advanced form of the popular Oxyjet Facial and deals with body contouring and rejuvenation instead of focusing on the face.
This treatment can take the place of (without as dramatic results) cosmetic surgery, injectibles or electrolysis. This treatment offers anti-aging benefits as well as muscle toning options. This treatment usually takes 60 minutes and is well-suited for those who have only a short time to spare, such as a lunch hour. There is no pain or downtime associated with this treatment.
What Happens During a Treatment?
First, the patient has a consultation with a practitioner to identify problem areas such as excess chin, arm, leg or stomach fat. When the patient comes in for an actual treatment, he or she lays down on what looks like a massage table. Topical ointment is applied, either Body Slim cream or Body Firm oils from plant extracts.
Oxygen is probed into the tissue through a small wand. The oxygen acts as a needle (minus the pain). It helps the ointments penetrate into the skin, which begin working to break down fat cells. Oxygen is a cleansing element and removes toxins from our body as well, which build up and work to keep fat in our bodies.
Then, the practitioner applies a red and blue light treatment to the problem area. A red light treatment penetrates deep into the under layers of our skin to activate metabolism, which in turn, breaks up fat cells. Red light treatment is literally a neon red light attached by a removable head at the end of a wand, which is rubbed gently back and forth over the body, its invisible rays reaching deeper levels of the skin.
Blue light technology puts finishing touches on the skin by cooling and tightening. It also “produces an antibacterial layer over the skin,” which helps expel toxins and keep skin looking young and healthy. Before a blue light treatment, a spray is applied. Then a wand with a round, rotating, florescent blue head is rolled over the body.
This treatment is very relaxing and it ends with an oxygen mask being placed over the patient’s mouth while they lay back and enjoy a few more minuets of quiet, leaving them clear headed and ready to tackle the rest of the day.
Who is Oxyjet Body Slim Good For?
This treatment works best on people who are already healthy and who aim to “tone up” rather than lose drastic amounts of weight. For example, someone who works out regularly may have certain spots where weight stays on or cellulite refuses to go away. Oxyjet can help with that.
For those who wish to enhance their bust size, Blue Light technology can improve bust size by 13%. It won’t take the place of breast enlargement surgery, but it is a good alternative to injectibles. It will firm and amplify the breasts, rather than enhance them one or more cup sizes.
How Much will it Cost?
Treatments start around £60 per treatment for one area (chin, stomach, legs, face, etc.) but will vary depending on which salon you go to. Ten treatments are recommended for maximum results, but 6 or 7 for breasts or chin could easily suffice.
