In 2025, more and more innovative technologies are being applied to the field of body care and beauty, among which ultrasonic cavitation technology has quickly attracted the attention of many consumers with its significant effects and fewer side effects. In particular, ultrasonic cavitation machine, which is widely used in the fields of fat reduction and skin tightening, has become one of the common equipment in modern beauty salons.

However, there are still many questions and controversies about the use time of ultrasonic cavitation machine, especially the topic of "Is 10 minutes of cavitation enough?"

What is ultrasonic cavitation machine?

Ultrasonic cavitation machine is a device that produces cavitation effect through high-frequency ultrasonic waves. Cavitation effect refers to the formation of tiny bubbles in liquid due to pressure changes. These bubbles explode in a short time, generating strong local heat and tiny impact force. Ultrasonic cavitation technology uses this principle to form cavitation phenomenon in skin and fat tissue through ultrasound, so as to destroy fat cells and promote fat metabolism, thereby achieving fat reduction, shaping, skin tightening and other effects.

The working principle of ultrasonic cavitation machine mainly relies on high-frequency ultrasonic vibration. The probe generates ultrasonic vibration waves, which drive the cavitation effect of the fat tissue on the surface of the skin and below. This effect not only helps to decompose fat, but also promotes blood and lymphatic circulation, thereby improving metabolism and promoting fat discharge.

What is the common use time of ultrasonic cavitation machine?

When using ultrasonic cavitation machine, many consumers are concerned about the duration of cavitation treatment. A common question is: "Is 10 minutes of cavitation enough?" In the beauty industry, there is no unified standard answer to the duration of ultrasonic cavitation machine treatment, because its effect is closely related to multiple factors, including individual differences, the power of the equipment, and the difference in treatment area.

Usually, the treatment time of ultrasonic cavitation machine varies according to the specific situation. In some standard treatment plans, the single treatment time ranges from 30 to 60 minutes. During the treatment, the ultrasonic cavitation therapist will adjust the treatment time according to the individual's fat situation, skin condition and customer needs. A 10-minute treatment may be suitable for some areas with mild fat accumulation or for first-time customers, but for those who need deeper treatment, 10 minutes is obviously not enough.

How is the cavitation effect of ultrasonic cavitation machine in 10 minutes?

So, what is the effect of 10 minutes of cavitation treatment? For this question, we can analyze it from several aspects.

Depth and breadth of cavitation effect

The working principle of ultrasonic cavitation machine is to impact fat cells with bubbles generated by ultrasound, causing fat cells to rupture and liquefy. The longer the treatment time, the greater the depth and breadth of the ultrasound effect, and the more obvious the effect. Therefore, 10 minutes is generally difficult to produce a deep treatment effect, especially for those areas with stubborn fat. If the treatment time is too short, it may not fully act on fat cells, resulting in insignificant fat decomposition effect.

Individual differences

Different individuals have large differences in fat layers, skin conditions, metabolic rates, etc., so the treatment effect of ultrasonic cavitation machine will also be different. For those with less fat or faster metabolism, 10 minutes of cavitation time may be enough to achieve certain results; but for individuals with more fat or slower metabolism, 10 minutes of cavitation treatment is often far from enough.

Treatment area

Different treatment areas require different treatment times. For areas with thinner skin, such as the face and hands, the treatment time of the ultrasonic cavitation machine is usually shorter, while for areas with thicker fat, such as the abdomen and thighs, the treatment time is usually longer. Therefore, a 10-minute treatment time may not be satisfactory for areas with more concentrated fat, such as the abdomen.

Equipment power and technical level

The power and technical level of the ultrasonic cavitation machine are important factors affecting the treatment effect. A high-power ultrasonic cavitation machine can produce a stronger cavitation effect in a shorter time, thereby achieving a more significant treatment effect. Low-power equipment requires a longer treatment time to produce sufficient results. The therapist's technical level and operational proficiency also have an important impact on the treatment effect. If a high-powered ultrasonic cavitation machine is used and operated properly, a 10-minute treatment time may help, but for most common devices, a 10-minute treatment time will still not produce significant results.

What is the correct duration of ultrasonic cavitation machine treatment?

For best results, ultrasonic cavitation treatments need to be adjusted according to the specific circumstances of the individual. Generally speaking, a single treatment time is usually 30 minutes to 1 hour, and the specific time varies depending on the thickness of the fat, the treatment area, and the power of the device.

Fat thickness

Areas with thinner fat, such as the face and upper arms, can achieve certain results with shorter treatment times. For areas with thicker fat, such as the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks, longer treatments are required. Ultrasonic cavitation therapists usually arrange treatment times reasonably according to the thickness of the fat to ensure that the ultrasound can fully act on the fat layer to achieve the best results.

Metabolic level

Everyone's metabolic rate is different. People with faster metabolism can usually see results in a shorter time, while people with slower metabolism may need longer treatments to stimulate the fat breakdown process. During ultrasonic cavitation machine treatment, the therapist will adjust the intensity and duration of treatment according to the individual's metabolic status.

Treatment goals

If the purpose is to reduce weight locally, the ultrasonic cavitation machine treatment time may be shorter, and 10 minutes of cavitation can sometimes play a certain role. If the purpose is to achieve a more significant fat reduction effect, multiple treatments are usually required, and the duration of each treatment is extended.

Equipment and technology

Using a high-performance ultrasonic cavitation machine, the treatment time can be appropriately shortened, but the treatment time still needs to be reasonably arranged according to the specific treatment goals. At the same time, the therapist's technical level is also an important factor affecting the treatment effect. Only professionally trained therapists can give full play to the effectiveness of the equipment.

Regarding the treatment time of the ultrasonic cavitation machine, 10 minutes of cavitation treatment is far from enough for most people. In order to achieve better results, longer treatments are usually required, and the treatment plan should be adjusted according to factors such as the individual's fat situation, treatment site, equipment power, and metabolic level. Therefore, a 10-minute ultrasonic cavitation treatment is only suitable for some mild cases of fat accumulation, and for most customers who need a deeper fat reduction, a longer treatment time is a more appropriate option.
