As seen in the Daily Mail, Silk are using the very latest ultrasound fat loss technology to offer the most advanced treatment to reduce problematic fat deposits from your body – stomach, flanks (love handles), thighs, arms and knees.
Using our advanced ultrasound technologies, Silk’s fat removal London clinic offers either focused or selective resonance treatments to break open the membranes around fat cells. They are then permanently removed from your body and will not return. We will recommend which technology based on our examination during your consultation. Our therapists can advise if ultrasound fat reduction is right for you and your body.
We also offer therapy to reduce fat volume using advanced radio-frequency technology for other parts of the body where ultrasound is not applicable, such as the upper arms, legs, knees, face and neck.
This system is called Accent RF and can be used alone, or in combination with ultrasound therapy. Our therapists can advise you at consultation as to which treatment will give you the best results.
Accent RF can also be used for skin smoothing and facial rejuvenation to help you look younger, reducing wrinkles and skin folds that come with age.

Suitability for Ultrasound Fat Removal
Unfortunately, treatment isn’t available to everyone. For ULTRASOUND patients (not cellulite patients planning on RF smoothing), please check that your BMI falls in the treatable range and should be no more than 30. Significant obesity is outside the treatment range for the styling effects of ultrasound therapy. Also some medical conditions and drugs will make some patients unsuitable to benefit from treatments.
You can check if your BMI is in range by visiting the BBC health website’s BMI calculator page, and enter your weight and height. The result will appear near the top of the page.
Alcohol
Please remember that you will have to avoid alcohol for 5 days after each treatment session, while you liver processes the fat that has been dissolved by the ultrasound.
Medical Problems
You will be unsuitable for UltraShape if you have any of the following:
- Liver problems
- Kidney or pancreatic problems
- Pregnancy or suspected pregnancy
- Significant obesity (BMI>30)
- Gall stones or problems handling a fatty diet
- High cholesterol or hypertriglyceridemia
- Implanted devices (e.g. pacemaker or intrauterine device, IUD)
- Cancer
- Systemic or autoimmune diseases
- Immunosuppression or are taking immunosuppressive drugs
- Scarring, hernias, or undefined skin disorders in the treatment area
- Body image disorders or too little fat (not able to pinch and hold 3cm of fat)
- Not eating a healthy diet and taking regular exercise
The last one is very important. Silk body treatments will help you only if as part of a sensible lifesyle and is not a licence to stop exercising or to eat more than your recommended daily intake of calories!
