What is cellulite reduction therapy? Cellulite reduction therapy utilizes a treatment called Endermologie which reduces cellulite and tones the skin. Endermologie , is a registered trademark of LPG Systems and was introduced to Europe in the 1980’s, and the United States in the early 1990’s, as a non-invasive approach to reduce or eliminate cellulite. Endermologie was originally invented in France in the 1970’s as a treatment to reshape scar tissue, although many patients observed reduction of body dimensions and improvement in skin texture.

What is cellulite? The term cellulite refers to the dimpled appearance of the skin generally on the hips, thighs and buttocks. Cellulite is due to any number of reasons, age, genetics, and hormonal changes being the most common, 80% to 90% of post-adolescent women lose circulation to the skin. This causes fluids and toxins to become immobilized, cutting off fat cells from nutrition and waste removal. Fat cells then become engorged, swell up to 300 times in size, and push up on the skin. At the same time, the fibers that connect the skin to the muscle shrink, and pull down on the skin. Fat cells pushing up…..connective tissue pulling down……and there’s your “dimple,” “orange peel,” “cottage cheese” or “hail damage”!

How does Endermologie affect the appearance of the skin? Endermologie is a mechanized technique, combining regulated suction and two rollers to symmetrically, and rhythmically, fold and unfold the skin. As the deepest layer of fat becomes less adhesive, less glutinous, blood flow increases, thereby allowing the metabolic byproducts to pass through the body by normal physiological methods. At the same time, the fibers that connect the skin to the muscle are being stretched. Through repeated treatments, the fat cells shrink and reshape. Shrinking fat cells….stretching connective tissue…..eliminating trapped fluids…..and there’s the magic of Endermologie !

Is Endermologie recognized by the FDA? Yes! Approved in 1998, Endermologie was the first mechanized treatment to receive FDA clearance for cellulite reduction.

How is Endermologie different from Liposuction? Endermologie is a non-surgical, noninvasive procedure, not requiring anesthesia or breaking of the skin. There is no pain or downtime experienced with Endermologie . Plastic surgeons all over the country do, in fact, recommend Endermologie as part of the Liposuction process. Several treatments before surgery will make the fat softer, and easier for the surgeon to extract. Treatments after surgery will smooth out the lumps and the bumps.

How often should I have a cellulite reduction treatment? Twice per week is optimal, with at least one day in-between treatments. In certain cases, three times per week is advisable. Once you’ve reached your plateau, you’ll want to maintain your appearance with one treatment each month or as needed.

How long before I see results? Everybody is different, but most of my clients start noticing results within as few as 6 or 7 treatments; though, dramatic results are more likely to be noticed after 16 to 20 treatments.

How long is a cellulite reduction treatment? Thirty-five minutes. It is sometimes necessary to go longer, but never more than 45 minutes.

Does Endermologie hurt? Most clients find the sensation quite pleasant, even falling asleep during their treatments! The intensity of the treatment will be adjusted to your own comfort level.

I am overweight; am I a good candidate for Endermologie ? Though Endermologie treatments often result in significant changes in body circumference, this is not a weight loss remedy. There is no correlation between weight loss and circumference loss. You are not likely to see improvements to skin texture unless you are close to your ideal weight. However, if you are embarking on a weight loss program, particularly a radical program such as gastric bypass, Lap-Band , or the like, Endermologie may help ward off the sagging skin syndrome that often results from rapid weight loss. The key is to receive regular treatments as you lose the weight, keeping your skin taut as you become smaller in circumference. If you wait until the skin is already sagging, Endermologie is not your answer.

Is Endermologie only for cellulite reduction? No! The FDA also recognizes Endermologie in the relief of Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS), minor muscle aches and pains, and muscle spasms. Your muscles will inevitably become sore after a proper workout; muscle soreness and joint pain being frequent problems for athletes. Many people allow themselves to be overcome by the challenges of their exercise program, including severe soreness after workout. The key is to not allow these obstacles to stop or deter you from reaching your full potential. With Endermologie , you’ll feel the difference with enhanced physical performance and endurance during your workout, and you’ll notice the effects from better recovery after your workout. See me before vigorous exercise to help energize your muscles and maximize your workout. A treatment beforehand not only increases blood circulation, it also improves the visco-elasticity of the muscles, thereby preventing the minute tears of muscle fibers, and the muscular swelling that causes DOMS. See me to aid in lessening soreness after your workout. Endermologie helps with the elimination of lactic acid, the drainage of inflammation, and relieves stiffness to provide greater flexibility. Those who incorporate Endermologie into their workout routines, enjoy an improved comfort in everyday life, as well as improved static and dynamic strength.

Can I receive cellulite reduction treatments if I am pregnant? Though no correlation has been found between Endermologie and pregnancy complications, for liability reasons, I cannot treat pregnant clients. But we can get started as soon as six weeks after delivery.

Who else should not receive cellulite reduction treatments? Because Endermologie increases blood flow by up to 400%, some conditions may be exacerbated, or some organs over-burdened upon treatment. For this reason, I cannot treat those diagnosed with the following conditions:

1) Thrombosis, and/or taking prescribed blood thinners 2) Progressive, infectious illnesses such as AIDS, etc. 3) Cancer or malignant tumors within the past five years 4) Heart disease 5) Acute infections or inflammation 6) Respiratory disease 7) Kidney failure Hepatitis 9) Diabetes 10) Circulatory conditions within the past two years
