WHAT IS BODY MUSCLE STRENGHTENING, TONING AND FIRMING

Body muscle strengthening, toning and firming are terms that are often used interchangeably in the fitness industry, but they have different meanings and implications. Body muscle strengthening refers to the ability to exert force or lift weight for a short period of time, and it can be improved by doing resistance training with heavy weights, bodyweight exercises, or resistance bands. Body muscle toning refers to the appearance of having defined muscles without excess fat, and it can be achieved by combining strength training with aerobic exercise and a balanced diet. Body muscle firming refers to the elasticity and tightness of the skin and connective tissue around the muscles, and it can be influenced by factors such as age, genetics, hydration, and nutrition. All three aspects of body muscle fitness can enhance your health, performance, and confidence.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

StarFormer is a device that uses high-intensity Tesla magnetic stimulation (HITS) to target muscle tissues and induce contractions. This helps to strengthen, tone and firm muscles without any effort or exercise. Fotona StarFormer offers two treatment options: TightWave and IntimaWave. 

TightWave is designed for body sculpting and can treat areas such as glutes, abdomen, arms and back. IntimaWave is designed for pelvic floor strengthening and can treat urinary and faecal incontinence. Both treatments are non-invasive, quick and safe, with high patient satisfaction and improvement after only a few sessions.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT DURING THE TREATMENT?

A Fotona StarFormer muscle strengthening, toning and firming treatment is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic pulse energy to stimulate muscle contraction. The treatment can target different areas of the body, such as the glutes, abdomen, hamstrings, arms and back muscles. The treatment can also help with pelvic floor muscle strengthening and urinary incontinence. The treatment is performed with the patient lying down or sitting on a comfortable chair, fully clothed. One session usually lasts between 20 to 30 minutes, and the patient can resume their daily activities immediately after the treatment. The treatment can improve muscle strength, shape and firmness after only a few sessions .

AFTER THE TREATMENT

After a Fotona StarFormer treatment, you can expect some mild redness and swelling in the treated area, which should subside within a few hours. You may also feel some warmth and tightness, which are normal signs of the laser working. 

The results of a Fotona StarFormer treatment are not immediate, but gradual and progressive. You may notice some improvement after the first session, but the optimal results will be achieved after a series of treatments, usually 8 to 10 sessions, spaced second to three days apart.

The results can last up to 12 months or longer, depending on your lifestyle and maintenance. To enhance and prolong the effects of the treatment, you should follow a healthy diet, drink plenty of water, and exercise regularly.
