Procedure of the Month
Invented in France by LPG Systems, Endermologie® has been used for over two decades as a way to get rid of cellulite, without invasive surgery.
The success of the treatments relies on the body’s natural way to eliminate fat stores and trapped toxins, therefore results tend to appear over a course of time.
Length of Treatments
Each session lasts about 35-45 minutes. It is recommended sessions are performed twice a week. Depending on how much cellulite you want to get rid of, it may take a few weeks or months to achieve desired results.
Ideal Candidates
Women and men who follow a healthy lifestyle and diet are ideal candidates, particularly those that find they are still effected by cellulite in specific areas.
Anesthesia
No anesthesia is required during a session.
The Procedure
A medical aesthetician will use a device with two adjustable rollers and controlled suction to massage the skin, gently folding and unfolding the skin in the target areas. A specially designed body stocking, called Endermowear, is worn for sanitary reasons and to allows for a smooth plane on which the device can maneuver.
The deep massage of Endermologie® reduces the viscosity of subcutaneous fat, promoting blood circulation and lymphatic drainage.
Side Effects
Some bruising may occur.
Because treatments encourage circulation, it is recommended that you drink more water so that released toxins drain from the body more easily. You may find that you visit the washroom more often throughout the day as a result.
Risks
Bruising is the only risk of this procedure. Any bruising tends to be minor and temporary.
Recovery
After a session, you’ll be able to return to work and normal activities immediately. You may continue to exercise while undergoing treatments, which is necessary to produce and maintain the best results.
Alternative Uses
Endermologie® can also help with the recovery of those who have undergone liposuction. However, consult your surgeon before proceeding with treatments.
