Endermologie for Cellulite Reduction in the South Hills Of Pittsburgh

What is Endermologie?
Endermologieis the perfect tool to fight conditions that may, in part, be caused by the body’s hormonal changes, such as a dimpled appearance to the skin often known as cellulite. Endermologie is a broad term that encompasses all connective tissue treatments performed with mechanical stimulation by way of lipomassage. Lipomassage with Endermologie describes an accelerated aesthetic technique acting on fat cell metabolism to address trapped fat and streamline the body. 

We target the pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. Endermologie triggers the breakdown of fat by activating the receptors that burn fat. Endermologie is a cellulite treatment utilizing a machine with 2 rollers and a gentle suction action that when rolled over the top layer of fat makes a fold. This folding action stretches the connective tissue and results in the reduction of cellulite and body measurements. The treatment head of the machine is applied directly to the skin using various programs that increase blood flow and help fluid elimination, there by contributing to a more even finish to the skin and better body contours. 

The FDA has approved Endermologie claims involved in the reduction of cellulite, reduction of muscular pain, and reduction of muscle spasms. It was developed in the 1980’s as a non-surgical method to treat the scars of burn victims, who began to notice improvements in their cellulite as well.

When will I see results?
Usually 14-28 initial Endermologie body treatments, 1-2 times a week, are necessary to achieve the optimal results, with a monthly visit thereafter for maintenance. Treatments are usually thirty minutes in duration, and the entire body will be treated. In addition to the targeted areas, your endermologie treatments will help increase lymphatic flow and help promote better circulation throughout your entire body.

Does it hurt?

LPG Endermologie theraputic massagers have been cleared by the FDA to relieve DOMS, muscle spasms, minor aches and pains, temporary improvement in local blood circulation and temporarily improves the appearance of cellulite and circumferential body measurements of cellulite treated areas.
