You wont have to worry about incisions or downtime because everything is done entirely on the surface of the body.

WHAT IS IT? A non-invasive way to get bikini-ready you can flaunt. The procedure instantly trims your tummy, hips, arms, back, love handles and thighs.

THE COSMETIX FIX: The hour-long session involves three steps: radiofrequency (RF) heating, ultrasound and suction. First, your therapist runs a heated RF device over your body to melt fat near the surface of your skin and smoothen out the cellulite-induced dimpling. Cosmo tip: If the heat gets uncomfy, ask your therapist to lower the temp. During the ultrasound, a cold rod is run over your targeted areas to break down the deeper layers of fat. Then, the suction machine loosens the melted fat to make it easier to flush out of your system. Step three is a bit ticklish, so be prepared to let out a giggle.

THE COSMO TEST: We were amazed to see insta-results after the first procedure (three and a half inches off!). But, we were warned that some of the jiggle would return after. To test it further, we finished a ten-session program, losing a few inches here and there during each visit. The amazing results: less back fat our string-bikini bottoms now tie perfectly over shrunken saddle bags, and we finally don't have to suck in our bilbil at the beach.

THE REAL DEAL: Though the results aren't as instantaneous as liposuction's, this gradual contouring of the body is a great option for those who don't want to go under the knife. To score even better results, couple the program with a healthy diet, so you can continue to keep of the inches you lose with every session.
