What is cellulite?

Cellulite is a skin condition that is genetic and hormonal and usually gets worse with age. It affects more than 90% of women. Cellulite is basically toxins that get stuck in the connective tissue in combination with enlargement of fat cells, fluid retention, and an alteration of connective tissue. There is no circulation in the cellulite infected area. Endermologie promotes circulation to the area to get the toxins out of the connective tissue and into the blood stream. Water intake will help flush toxins out of the body.

Do diet and exercise get rid of cellulite?

No! Although diet and exercise affect deep fat, they fail to act on the underlying cause of cellulite in the superficial tissue of your skin. Even women who eat low fat diets and exercise regularly may still have cellulite.

Does Endermologie hurt?

Endermologie is not supposed to hurt. It should feel relaxing like a deep massage. If during a treatment you should feel any pain or pinching the Endermologist can adjust the suction to make you feel comfortable .

Are there any contradictions to Endermologie?

Endermologie is non-invasive and non-surgical with few contradictions. People who are on blood thinners can not have Endermologie done due to the risk of blood clots.

Diabetics have a high chance of bruising but as long as the diabetes is controlled, Endermologie can be performed. Endermologie can be done 6 weeks after having a baby or surgery. Anyone with heart problems or extremely high blood pressure should not have sessions.

If you have a health condition you are concerned about, we recommend talking to your doctor before considering Endermologie

Who is the perfect candidate for Endermologie?

Endermologie works best on women who are 35 pounds or less overweight who want to reduce cellulite, stretch marks, or scars, who want body contouring, toning, and tightening of their skin, who drink at least 2 liters of water a day and eat a moderate diet, who need that extra circulation increase to help them get more energy, break down fat, and get to where they want to be.
