Are you bothered by pesky cellulite? This problem afflicts 80 – 90% of women and around 10% of men. There are some surgeries that can reduce cellulite, but if you hesitate to undergo an invasive procedure, you might think about trying Lipomassage by Endermologie instead. What is this treatment, and how does it work? Read on below to find out.
Targeted Massage Reduces Cellulite
Lipomassage, sometimes simply called Endermologie, utilizes the power of mechanical massage to remove toxins from the body and exercise important connective tissues. It encourages the production of collagen and has been known to significantly reduce the appearance of cellulite. It can also give a slimmer, firmer appearance to certain areas of the body, such as the tummy, buttocks, and thighs.
The treatment uses a specialized device that ensures the appropriate pressure and massage techniques are used to produce the desired results.
What to Expect with Endermologie
Here are a few notes on what you can expect while undergoing Endermologie treatment:
- Endermologie is relaxing. You may feel some pressure from the rollers that are applied to your skin, and you might feel minor discomfort during your first couple of sessions. Overall, however, you can look forward to an extremely relaxing experience.
- The sessions are short. Endermologie sessions can vary in length. In general, though, you should plan on your appointments lasting 35 – 45 minutes.
- Multiple sessions are necessary. At first, you may need to visit your Endermologie provider twice a week. Once you achieve your desired results (which may take several weeks), you can go in for maintenance session once a month or so.
- No downtime is required. You should be able to dive back into your normal routine immediately after your Endermologie appointments. (Make sure you stay well-hydrated so you can minimize the risk of nausea and lightheadedness.)
- The results are remarkable. Endermologie can help to firm and smooth skin in areas that do not respond well to traditional methods of toning, such as diet and exercise.
Is Endermologie Right for You?
Your local Endermologie provider can help you decide whether it is right for you. It is often recommended for patients who have recently undergone liposuction, as well as those that are concerned about cellulite or sagging skin. It is more popular among women than men, but both genders can benefit.
