Reductiva Sant Cugat is open at Àngel Guimerà 19. If you have seen the new centre and wondered what happens inside, this is for you: what the 3-in-1 session is, what it feels like, what it costs, and honest answers to the questions our guests ask most before their first visit.
Sant Cugat, meet Reductiva. Our new centre at Àngel Guimerà 19 opened its doors on 4 July, joining Paseo de Gracia and Muntaner in Barcelona. It is also the first centre to work with Reductiva Curve, our new generation machine.
If you are discovering us now, here is the short version. Reductiva specialises in non-invasive body remodelling: volume reduction, firmer skin and muscle toning, for men and women, on all body zones. One session, three technologies, 45 minutes. No surgery, no needles, no downtime.
What happens in a session at Reductiva Sant Cugat?
Three clinical technologies work in a single 45 minute session. Radiofrequency acts on stubborn fat and firms the tissue from within. Neurostimulation works muscle tone with precise contractions that go beyond what exercise can achieve on its own. Bioactive Therapy works drainage, circulation and recovery at cellular level.
The combination is the point: fat, tone and fluid are three different challenges, and most people arrive with more than one. Treating all three in the same session is what makes change visible early.
Does the treatment hurt? What does it feel like?
No. The session is painless and requires no anaesthesia. Most guests describe a light numbness in the treated area and gentle muscle contractions, and many find the session genuinely relaxing.
There are no wounds and no recovery time. You walk out and continue with your day, which is why sessions fit into a lunch break.
When will I see results?
From the first session. Many guests measure a volume reduction of 2 to 5 centimetres after their first visit, especially where fluid retention is part of the picture. Treatments that rely on fat elimination alone typically show their full result between three and six months, according to the American Academy of Dermatology; the combined approach shows change earlier because fluid responds immediately and tone builds over a programme.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on your starting point and your goal, which is why every programme begins with an assessment rather than a standard package. As a reference, stable results over time are typically consolidated across a programme of around 10 sessions.
In the assessment, a specialist looks at your goals, your body and your schedule, and gives you an honest answer about timelines in your specific case.
How much does it cost?
Your first visit costs €59,90 instead of €129,90 with the welcome offer. It lasts about an hour and includes your assessment and your first full 3-in-1 session, so you leave having felt the treatment and knowing exactly what your programme would look like.
That is the whole price answer. No obligation to continue, no package required to start.
Do I need to prepare anything?
Only water. Being well hydrated matters for the drainage work, so drink at least a glass of water before your session and plenty afterwards.
Come as you are, on the way to work or between errands. There is nothing to recover from afterwards.
Do I have to follow a diet?
No. No special diet is required for the treatment to deliver results. A balanced diet and an active routine will amplify what the sessions do, but the treatment does not depend on them.
Who is it for, and who should wait?
Men and women equally, and especially anyone whose routine no longer delivers what it used to. Athletes use it too: neurostimulation stimulates muscle recovery and definition, and it is not considered doping.
The treatment is not indicated during pregnancy or breastfeeding. If that is your case, the team at Sant Cugat can plan your programme for afterwards.
Can I start now, in summer?
Yes. Radiofrequency is not light-based, so it is not photosensitive and sessions continue all year, as Healthline notes it is considered safe for all skin types. The only precaution is simple: avoid direct sun on the treated area for 24 hours after the session and use sunscreen.
Summer is actually when the drainage work shows most, because it counters exactly what the heat is doing to your body. We answered the summer questions in depth here: Why does my body feel heavier in summer?
What is Reductiva Curve?
Reductiva Curve is our new generation machine, and Sant Cugat is the first centre where you can try it. It delivers the same 3-in-1 method, radiofrequency, neurostimulation and Bioactive Therapy, in its most advanced form to date.
