Solution cost for each session, with the arithmetic shown: the 500ml bottle is $75 distributor-listed, and at the distributor-stated yield for gel in this device class — approximately 50 sessions per 1L — a 500ml bottle covers roughly 25 sessions, so $75 ÷ ~25 ≈ $3.00 per session. The yield is a class-level approximation; facial work uses less solution than body work, so heavy-body practices should budget fewer sessions per bottle. Filters are a separate recurring cost. |

Overview
Italian spa-channel contouring flagship, US via Artemis/America Cryo
How it worksTechnology and manufacturing
How the technology works
Capacitive/resistive RF heats dermis and subcutaneous tissue (genuine collagen-remodeling mechanism), vacuum plus motorized rollers mechanically work tissue and boost circulation/lymphatic flow, and a 650nm laser adds a low-level light component.
RF-plus-vacuum-massage has the deepest evidence base in the cellulite category — consistent, modest, temporary improvements in cellulite appearance and small circumference reductions over a series. Not supported: permanent fat destruction or lasting results without maintenance.
Expect visible smoothing/tightening across 6-12 sessions with honest regression over months if clients stop.
Patented technology
Baldan brands the combination as the four-technology "T-Shape method" (RF + laser + vacuum + roller vibration massage). Strip the branding and it's a well-executed multi-modality thermal + mechanical platform, not a novel mechanism.
Origin
Italy — B&M S.r.l. (Baldan Group), near Venice.
