Ooh You Look Well!
Amazing the difference you can see and feel in just an hour or so! I can put my hand on my heart and say these tweakments really are worth your cash and time, so you won’t be disappointed. Book in now for a pre-summer fixative.

1 Five centimetres less

Zeltiq CoolSculpting, from R7 000 per area, at Cape Town’s Just Skin Aesthetic Clinic, works on small sections of stubborn fat like the chin, knees and axillary puffs (the bits around the bra on your back), and the skin on arms (it hurts a bit here!) to minimise and reshape your body in hard-to-hit places. In 35 to 60 minutes, the vacuum-like nozzle sucks up skin and fat and freezes it, destroying localised fat cells en route. Lie back and listen to music – one treatment can see up to a 25% reduction in volume three months later, provided you don’t pig out!

2 No pain, no gain?

OK, Ultherapy is possibly the most uncomfy treatment to tighten the saggy skin you get from weight loss on the face, neck and bust, but so worth it. Using Ulthera, from R18 000 at Pretoria’s Rejive Skin & Body Clinic, besides a bit of redness after, there’s no downtime (A-listers often go on the red carpet on the same day), and it looks so natural. In each 30-minute session, ultrasound microwaves penetrate to the same depth as a facelift without breaking the skin, triggering natural tissue repair and production of collagen and elastin for tighter, youthful-looking skin.
