Bliss is non-invasive body-contouring treatment that reduces fat, tightens skin and diminishes cellulite.
During a Bliss fat reduction treatment, a diode laser destroys fat cells by heating the adipose tissue, deep below the skin’s surface. After the treatment, the damaged fat cells are gradually eliminated through the lymphatic system.
During a Bliss skin tightening and cellulite reduction treatment, an (MP)2 applicator (a combination of Multi-Polar Radio Frequency, Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields (PEMF) and VariPulse technologies), stimulates the growth of collagen and elastin fibres.
Why
A Venus Bliss treatment is ideal for anyone who has pockets of excess body fat that they want to get rid of without surgery. It is also ideal for anyone who wants to tighten their skin or reduce their cellulite without surgery.
Procedure
A Bliss fat reduction treatment begins with the application of up to four laser applicators on your targeted areas (usually the abdomen and/or flanks).
After the device is activated, you will feel a slight chill in your targeted areas for a few seconds before they gradually start to feel warmer. Once the temperature builds, you will fell the slight chill again as the applicators switch to cooling mode for another brief period.
This process of heating and cooling will continue for the duration of your treatment as the Bliss maintains the required therapeutic temperature in the fat layer while ensuring you remain as comfortable as possible.
During a Bliss skin tightening and cellulite reduction treatment, your treatment provider will gently massage the (MP)2 applicator over the targeted areas (usually the abdomen, buttocks and thighs) for 30 minutes.
The Bliss fat reduction treatment, and the Bliss skin tightening, and cellulite reduction treatment can be completed consecutively in the same session, or separately.
You can choose one or both treatments depending on your unique needs.
