UltraSlim® uses a patented type of LED light to empty the contents of fat cells. Releasing all of that stubborn fat in areas you just can’t seem to get rid of with dieting or exercise. The light also stimulates collagen production, helping to restore the youthful look of your skin, and reduce the appearance of scars, and blemishes. UltraSlim® is an FDA cleared device for noninvasive body contouring with no needles, no incisions, and no recovery time. The UltraSlim® treatment is slightly warm and very pleasant, the light is positioned over you, never touching your body. Relaxing in the light of UltraSlim® is like treating yourself to a mini spa day.
