☀️40k Cavitation uses 40,000 Hz. This allows the handle to penetrate deeply into the skin and target larger and stubborn fat areas.
☀️80k Cavitation works at 80,000 Hz. The slightly higher frequency waves have less deep penetration, making them more effective for targeting shallow or localised fat that is closer to the surface.
PRO’s 40k
✅ Deep Penetration for Tough Fat: the 40k machine is excellent for breaking down deeper/denser fat, especially in areas where fat is more stubborn.
✅ Fewer Sessions Needed: it works quickly and efficiently. Often requiring fewer sessions to see noticeable results, especially for larger or more stubborn fat areas.
✅ Advanced Technology: many 40k cavitation machines come with features that help target fat evenly and effectively, making them great for larger areas.
✅ Ideal for Fibrous Fat: it works well for fat that is more resistant, such as love handles or post-pregnancy belly fat.
CON’s 40k
❌ Higher Intensity May Cause Discomfort: due to its deeper penetration, the 40k machine can feel more intense and some clients may experience discomfort.
❌ Risk of Overheating: the deeper the penetration, the higher the risk of overheating nearby tissues. Proper control is needed to avoid irritation or damage.
❌ Not Good for Shallow Fat: if you're targeting small or less dense fat areas, the 40k machine may be too intense and unnecessary.
PRO’s 40k
✅ Great for Shallow Fat: it’s perfect for targeting fat just under the skin, such as in the arms, thighs and belly.
✅ Quick Results for Small Areas: it works efficiently for smaller fat deposits, offering faster results for these areas.
✅ Comfortable and Non-Invasive: many people find 40k cavitation more comfortable than the 80k since it doesn’t penetrate as deeply.
✅ Lower Risk of Side Effects: the lower frequency is less likely to cause discomfort or irritation, making it a gentler option for sensitive skin.
CON’s 80k
❌ Not Good for larger/deeper fat: the 80k machine struggles to target deeper fat, so it’s less suitable for clients with more significant fat layers.
❌ More Sessions for Larger Areas: larger areas may need multiple treatments, as the 80k machine is not as powerful as the 30k or 40k.
Which one should you choose?!
Choose 40k if;
* You’re dealing with deep and stubborn fat deposits or larger body areas.
* You need a stronger and faster fat breakdown.
* Your clients have resistant fat that needs deeper penetration for effective treatment.
Choose 80k if;
* You’re targeting shallow fat deposits or smaller and localised areas.
* You need a more comfortable and precise treatment for less dense fat.
* You want quicker and less intense fat reduction.
Conclusion:
Really there one machine isn’t better than the other, they just have different functions, target different types of fat and are more ideal for different clients.
Because you can’t necessarily know exactly who all your clients are and what their fat deposits will be and what they want, we recommend having both machines.
Additionally as a professional it is always a jolly good idea to have more than one machine available in case your machines malfunctions at all mid a session. 💅🏻
