Suddenly Slender Ionithermie Body Contouring Treatment Review

Still remember my post on Suddenly Slender's IONITHERMIE Launch Party back in November?

Just to recap, Suddenly Slender has launched a new treatment - Ionithermie Body Contouring, which has the benefits of:
 • Smoother skin texture and reduced measurements 
• Defines upper abdominal muscles and improves contour 
• Excellent for post natal re-establishment of muscle tone 
• Aids circulation and lymphatic drainage 
• Reduces water retention and the appearance of cellulite 
• Lifts, smoothens and tones the quadriceps 
• Inch loss of up to 8 inches per treatment 
• Detoxifies the body

I received a complimentary one time session of Ionithermie Treatment. Hence, I decided to utilise it before the festive season approaches, to make myself look good and ready for the festive.

Suddenly Slender has 3 outlets in Singapore at Holiday Inn Orchard City Centre, Malacca Centre and Yishun Central. I went for the outlet at Malacca Centre which is just 5 minutes walk from Raffles Place MRT station.

Upon entering, I was being brought to a consultation room to fill up forms on my particulars and areas of concern.

After which, I was led to the changing room to change my clothes off. 

There were locker in the changing room for us to place our belongings. Inside the locker was a towel, robe, disposable undergarments that I need to change into. The towel was to be used for bath later on.

I'm changed and ready to take my weight.

Next, I was being brought to a cubicle in the changing room for 20 minutes steaming (sauna) at about 40 degree celsius.

The steaming started off with a comfortable one. Slowly, it became hotter and hotter, I started to perspire all over. The therapist has provide me a wet towel which I used it to wear the sweat off my face and cover my face with it.

Lucky I only put on thin eyeliner, if not, my makeup will surely be smeared after steaming. It is not a wise idea to put makeup on when going for treatment.

After steaming I went to took a shower before proceeding for the treatment.

After my shower, I was brought to the treatment room for Ionithermie Body Contouring. A layer of plastic was placed on the bed so that the clay mask will not stained on the bed.

The products that will be used later.

Before the treatment, the therapist applied toner, lotion and ampoule on my thighs and tummy. After which, they started to prepare the algae-clay mask on electrodes pad that was being placed underneath my back and applied the clay on my thighs and tummy, then connect the wires to the machine.

Ionithermie is a combination of five treatments that are applied simultaneously. It uses five active components that work together directly on the problem

1. Iontophoresis: 
A non-invasive electrical stimulation charged with negative and positive ions. It is used in medicine to facilitate the penetration of therapeutically active ingredients deeply into the skin layers. It also helps to increase blood circulation and lymphatic drainage. The effect of the ionization lasts between 36-48 hours after the treatment.

2. Thermal Aroma Mask: 
Conductive healing clay which heats up and gives a relaxing feeling. Thermal mask accelerates blood circulation, improves lymphatic flow and relaxes the muscles. The content of clay helps to eliminate excess fluid from the body, stimulates the metabolic processes and re-mineralize the skin. 

3. Aromatherapy: 
Cypress essential oil increases circulation and helps remove toxins and excess fluid from the body and balance the hormones. Pine essential oil is a natural diuretic, with stimulating and anti-inflammatory activity on the body. The effect of the essential oils lasts between 5 -7 days after the treatment. 

4. Algae: 
A building material for connective tissue, re-mineralize the skin and eliminate toxins. Along with other active products, algae stimulate, nourish and heal the skin and body. Algae are rich in iron, iodine, minerals, vitamins, chlorophyll, trace elements and sea salt. 

5. Electro Muscle Stimulation with faradic current: 
It tightens and tones the muscles. Physiotherapists use Faradic current to restore weak and damaged muscle tissue. It is utilized to stimulate the muscles, which helps blood circulation and lymphatic system. Furthermore, it helps to detoxifies the extracellular matrix (where collagen is synthesized). Hence, it stimulates the production of collagen resulting in smooth skin.
The session was 30 minutes starting from the time when the wires were plucked on. This was no discomfort during the session, there was only vibration throughout. I took a quick nap during this 30 minutes. It was so peaceful with the soothing music being played.

After 30 minutes, the clay back has hardened up, the therapist peeled them off from my body. She then used a towel to wipe off the remaining clay mask on my body, followed by applying body lotion.  

With that, I'm ready to go off. But before that, I measured my weight again. I have lost 0.2kg just within 2 hours.
