External gluteal treatment at VIVO Leeds
Ultrasound and RF are applied on the skin surface in the Leeds package; no injection, implant or fat transfer is involved, and results should not be compared with a BBL.
Clarifying the Leeds treatment
The Leeds service uses devices outside the body: ultrasound for local contouring and RF heat for a possible temporary change in tissue or skin appearance. Vacuum may be available but must be confirmed.
Because nothing is injected or transferred, treatment cannot build volume like filler or reposition fat like surgery. The possible improvement is smaller, varies by person and may need maintenance. It is cosmetic and offers no weight-loss or health benefit.

That distinction is safety-critical. If you are researching augmentation, do not treat external-device and injectable risk profiles or outcomes as interchangeable.
Before the Leeds course
Ultrasound should not be used over open or compromised skin, active implants or metal near the site; complications can include burns, blisters and nerve damage. RF adds risks such as nodules, pigment changes and scars as well as burns and swelling.
Provide a full medicine and treatment history, including anticoagulants, implants, metal, surgery, tattoos, skin conditions and pregnancy. Report painful heat or abnormal sensation during treatment. Seek timely review of persistent pain, weakness, new numbness, skin injury or discolouration.

Before choosing Leeds treatment
The safest starting point is precise language about devices, effects and alternatives.
Contact the Leeds studioA surgical BBL transfers fat, while a liquid BBL injects filler. This service does neither; it uses external ultrasound and RF devices with different, generally subtler aims.
No added substance or tissue creates volume. Any visible change from external treatment may be subtle or temporary, and a lasting increase in size should not be promised.
Agree consistent timing, position, lighting and measurements before a course. Even then, natural fluctuation and photography can affect apparent change.
Yes. Therapeutic ultrasound device complications can include pain, redness, swelling, blisters, burns and nerve damage, so contact and settings must follow the device protocol.
RF body treatment may cause pain, swelling, blistering, burns, nodules, pigment change or scarring. Tell the practitioner immediately if it feels painfully hot.
No. Implants, metal, skin integrity, altered sensation, medicines, pregnancy and medical history can make one or more components unsuitable.
Get prompt advice for significant burns, blistering, colour change, escalating pain, weakness, spreading redness or a new lump. Severe or sudden symptoms need urgent assessment.
