Retinol Body Renewal vs Acoustic Wave Treatment in Calgary
Choosing between Retinol Body Renewal and Acoustic Wave Treatment at TIVA BEAUTY in Calgary starts with understanding the appointment itself. One brings together professional body skincare and manual techniques. The other uses acoustic wave technology on selected body areas. Their names, time options and booking formats describe different appointments, even when you want to discuss the same area.
Retinol Body Renewal: body skincare and manual techniques
Retinol Body Renewal is a 45-minute appointment priced at $180 CAD. The appointment includes professional Italian Bioline Jatò products, concentrated retinol ampoules, manual sculpting massage and body Gua Sha techniques.
The treatment can focus on the thighs, buttocks, abdomen or arms. Discuss which areas you want attention on when arranging your visit. Retinol Body Renewal has a single 45-minute booking option; the two-, three- and four-area counting system below belongs to the Acoustic Wave appointments.
If you are looking for an appointment involving body skincare products and hands-on work, these are the components to ask the team about. Explain your concern in your own words, whether that is how your skin feels or how its surface looks, and ask how the appointment fits your priorities.
Acoustic Wave Treatment: assessment and selected areas
Targeted Anti-Cellulite Acoustic Wave Treatment uses acoustic wave technology for focused work on selected body areas. The appointment begins with a body and tissue assessment, followed by targeted treatment. Treatment focus and intensity are adjusted to the assessed areas.
The available areas are arms, abdomen, buttocks and thighs. Both arms count as one area, both buttocks count as one area, and both thighs count as one area. For example, both thighs plus the abdomen make two selected areas within this booking system.
Your selected areas can change between visits after reassessment. You can discuss your priorities at each appointment and ask which areas will receive attention that day.
