FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Please find below my most commonly asked questions. If there are any questions you may have that are unanswered, please reach out to me.
Can you treat lipedema?
Unfortunately I can not treat lipodema.
When will I see results?
A minimum of 6 - 10 sessions is recommended for optimum results. Each persons body responds differently to the treatment, some may need less sessions, some may need more. To achieve BEST results it is recommended to combine both the Fat Cavitation and RF Skin Tightening on the treatment area per session. Results also heavily depend on the client following the post care instructions.
I’m trying to call but no one is answering?
I am a one woman show. And as exciting as that is to enter this new chapter in my career, there is no receptionist, no manager. Just me. And I also have 2 little girls at home. If I am not answering the phone it means I am either busy attending to a client or busy with my girls. Please send me a message or an email and I will get back to you as soon as I can. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding.
Why don’t you work late nights or saturdays?
With 2 little girls it is just not feasible for me right now to work any more hours than what I am. As they get older I hope to expand on my days and hours. I understand that my days/times aren’t the most convenient, and I can’t tell you how appreciative I am that you make it work to see me. I promise it’s worth it!
What happens if you cancel my appointment?
In the event that I need to cancel your appointment, I will work with you to rebook you into a time and day that suits. I promise that I don’t cancel or reschedule my clients unless truly necessary.
How often can I get it done?
Fat Cavitation can not be done any sooner than 72 hours between sessions so not to flood the lymphatic system. RF Skin Tightening can be done daily.
Are there any side effects?
Yes there can be, please read through the Pre care, Side effects and Post care for Body Sculpting that you can find here.
Are you still affiliated with Gingerella Rox?
No, I am no longer affiliated with Gingerella Rox. I am now a completely separate business under my own business name. But I will always be so grateful for that chapter in my career and all my clients who I met there and have followed me to Abigail Jane Beauty.
