-
Drink at least 2 liters of water before your treatment and another 2 liters per day following your treatment (soft drinks, soda, juice, or tea is not water).
-
Refrain from ANY alcohol consumption for 2 – 3 days following your treatments. Alcohol can prevent your liver from working to remove fats as it will make alcohol metabolism its priority before fat removal and could hinder your results.
-
Refrain from caffeine for 3-4 days prior to your treatment and for 48 hours after treatment. If you absolutely can not skip your coffee for 3-4 days prior, then refrain from it the day before and the day of your appointment, along with the 48 hours after.
-
Avoid eating large meals 2 hours prior to and 1 hour after your treatment.
-

-
Localize the treatment area after the treatment, such as using a body brush, using body moisturizer every day, and massaging recommended moisturizer freely in the treatment area. The use of dry skin brushing daily to stimulate lymph movement (your therapist will show you how to do this). This is not mandatory but will hasten the results.
-
