Endermologie Treatment for Cellulite

Around the 1980s, endermologie treatments for cellulite were studied by a French engineer named Louis-Paul Guitay as a non-surgical method for treating scars of burn patients. Through this study, Guitay along with other medical experts discovered that endermologie treatments also provided positive effects on cellulite.

After this discovery, endermologie became a technique for treating healthy tissues that resulted in cellulite reduction, body re-contouring and skin tone improvements.

Endermologie treatment for cellulite is the first FDA-approved method that has been allowed to claim its effectiveness in reducing cellulite. Unlike other kinds of surgical and non-surgical methods, endermologie treatment for cellulite involves a specially designed massage machine with two cylindrical rollers and a mild suction that makes fat fold when rolled over the skin.

Compared to liposuction where any plastic surgeon can perform, endermologie treatments for cellulite shall only be provided by a certified endermologist. When the fats are folded, the connective tissues are stretched, which result in reducing cellulite as well as hip, thigh or butt measurements.

While other treatment options for cellulite claim to temporarily reduce cellulite, reduce body measurements, increase blood circulation, relieve muscle pains and reduce muscle spasms, only endermologie treatments for cellulite can legally claim these things.

Understanding Endermologie Treatments and Cellulite

The word “Endermologie” came from a French phrase that means “through the dermis”. The endermologie treatment for cellulite has been scientifically proven to show positive results after six months of sessions.

Endermologie as a treatment for cellulite works within the skin, mobilizing the underlying connective tissues, which in turn, causes the positive changes. Using patented massage machines that includes unique cylindrical rollers and a controlled suctioning, the cellulite-affected areas typically increases circulation of up to 200 percent. As a result, it improves lymphatic drainage while preventing breakage of the connective tissues that causes the orange-peel look of cellulites.

After several endermologie treatments for cellulites, you can expect a reduction in the unsightly appearance of cellulites, an improvement in your streamlines and curves, decrease of fatty areas, improvement of blood flow, exfoliation of your skin and a relief of inflammation, pains, muscle spasms and minor aches.

Not only does endermologie as a treatment for cellulite work, it also aids in yielding positive results before and after a liposuction surgery. With this kind of cellulite treatment, you will have no scars due to surgery, you will lose extra fats and weight, your skin will become smoother and the cellulite-affected areas will look and feel smaller.

Removing Cellulite

Cellulite is a condition of the skin that is often called orange peel skin or cottage cheese skin. The appearance of the skin in almost every woman over the age of twenty is affected by cellulite. This condition is very rare in men. As the fat cells gather beneath the surface of the skin, it takes on the appearance of dimpling. This is a very unattractive look especially for women who want to wear shorts or a bathing suit to the beach or swimming pool. There is some evidence that the condition is caused by hormones, but there is no evidence that taking hormones will remove cellulite.

Cellulite is so unattractive that many treatments have been touted to remove cellulite. Liposuction is one treatment that some try to remove cellulite. There is no evidence that liposuction will remove cellulite. A licensed surgeon uses equipment to suction the fat beneath the skin from the patient. This type of treatment is very expensive because it must be performed by an experienced surgeon. This treatment can also be painful and time consuming. This treatment will help with weight loss, but some patients find that liposuction increases the unattractive appearance of cellulite. With liposuction treatments, fat is removed and the patient may feel much better after some time. This will probably not remove cellulite.

Treatments Are Available to Remove Cellulite

Some treatments are advertised to remove cellulite, but there does not seem to be any evidence that some of these treatments work effectively. Working out in the gym is probably the best way to minimize the appearance of cellulite. A personal trainer can provide a plan for losing weight which might make the cellulite less visible. A good massage therapist might convince clients that the proper massage techniques will remove cellulite. The massage treatments will probably help to lessen the appearance of cellulite, but there is no evidence that these treatments will remove cellulite.

Several companies offer lotions and creams that are supposed to remove cellulite. Some of the customers believe that they see results from continued use of these products. There is no substantiated evidence that these creams are effective. Unfortunately, the people affected by cellulite might just have to learn to live with it. They might dress differently to limit the number of people who know that they have cellulite. This unsightly condition seems destined to remain a problem for some time to come.

The Cellulite Laser Treatment

Cellulite laser treatments are one of the most promising treatments of cellulite in the cosmetic surgery world. Various medical experts are studying different methods of cellulite laser treatment in combination with other cellulite treatment.

For instance, endermologie is a perfect combination of cellulite laser treatment because once the lasers have effectively softened the tissues, endermologie treatments can be accomplished in lesser time. Another benefit of cellulite laser treatments is that it could aid in improving the effects of liposuction.

When cellulite laser treatments are combined with an extensive roller massage, it could yield better results for Endermologie patients. According to various studies, when a cellulite laser treatment is combined with other treatments, it appears to produce a higher level of fatty tissue breakdown.

When a person undergoes a cellulite laser treatment combined with Endermologie, his or her body’s mechanics naturally mobilizes the disposal of unwanted byproducts of fats, such as fatty acids or glycerol.

How does cellulite laser treatment work?

A cellulite laser treatment involves a process where an intense physical massage is done to rub down and loosen the cellulite areas under the skin while penetrating radio energy and head to reshape one’s body and improve the appearance of orange-peel skin. Generally, cellulite laser treatments may feel like a deep tissue massage. Although you may experience slight pinching of your skin, this can immediately be eliminated once the cylindrical rollers are adjusted.

After a cellulite laser treatment, you may experience slight reddening or bruising after your first sessions. If you’re wondering about the required treatment to lose cellulite completely, it largely depends on areas being treated and personal lifestyle, eating habits and characteristics of the patient. Patients usually see improvements of the treatments within seven or more sessions.

With cellulite laser treatments, not only can your skin look and feel smoother, you also won’t need further therapies or surgeries to eliminate your cellulite. It simple reshapes the layers of cellulite, smoothing them down to lessen or eliminate the unattractive ridges of cellulite.
While cellulite laser treatment have not yet achieved its maximum potential since it is still considered in the testing phase, this cellulite treatment holds major promise for the cosmetic surgery field.

However, cellulite laser treatments are already being used in various parts of the world and many patients and physicians are claiming positive results. Give it a few months and everyone can receive cellulite laser treatments and can ward off that unsightly cellulite for good.

Cellulite

1Cellulite is ugly fat that lies beneath the surface of the skin. The cellulite makes dimples in the skin that are very unattractive. Cellulite is nothing new and there is evidence of this term being used more than one hundred years ago. Cellulite is referred to by many different terms including orange peel skin and cottage cheese skin. These terms are descriptive of the effect of this substance on the skin.

2Cellulite does not usually affect men and does not usually appear in women until they are at least a teenager. The appearance of cellulite increases with age in females.

3There is some evidence that this condition is affected by hormones and is not the result of obesity. Although there is evidence that hormones contribute to the appearance of this condition, there is no hormone treatment to cure it. Thin people can have cellulite like their overweight friends. This problem is mostly in appearance and is not the sign of a medical problem.

4Cellulite shows on the buttocks, the thighs and hips. This problem is one of degree. Some woman have more than others, and the appearance is more noticeable on some women. In normal, daily living, this problem is not as serious as it becomes when a woman wants to wear shorts or a swimming suit at the beach.

5Some women annoyed by this condition have turned to liposuction. This is a surgical procedure that should be performed by an experienced doctor. The doctor uses equipment and skills to suck the fat from beneath the skin. This procedure can be extremely expensive and somewhat time consuming. There is evidence that liposuction actually worsens the appearance of the orange peel skin.

6Exercise that results in weight loss can improve the appearance of the areas affected by this condition. Massage therapists offer treatments to women bothered by the ugly appearance of their skin. These massage treatments specifically target the areas affected.

7Several cosmetics companies offer products, and the advertisements for these products claim to reduce the unattractive appearance of cottage cheese skin. There is not much evidence available that shows these products make a significant difference although some individuals believe that the products work. Some health professionals recommend a low fat diet to reduce the appearance of cellulite.

Body Wrapping

Many spas and salons offer a process called “body wrapping.”  This procedure claims to remove inches from the waist, thighs, hips or other parts of the body.  The process includes the use of special wraps or clothing and can sometimes be used with special lotions or creams that are applied to the skin.

Customers are usually told that they can lose “inches” as opposed to pounds and that fat will melt away bringing about a loss of inches in about an hour.  One of the claims is that wrapping will work because cellulite is “water logged fatty tissue.” 

What overweight person wouldn’t love to find a product that will render them slim and trim while they sleep?

Unfortunately, many people think that body wrapping is a relatively “new” procedure and jump on the bandwagon quickly.  The truth is that the body wrapping craze has been around for some time.

Over two decades ago, government “watchdogs” reported:

“Who can blame the fretfully flabby for being lured by the promise of losing inches without doing anything more strenuous than popping a pill or wrapping up the offending flesh? Who can resist ads for body wraps that promise ‘to burn away fat even while you sleep,’ to ‘lose 4-6 inches the first day?”

What do these wraps consist of?

Some are plastic or rubber garments worn around the waist, some cover the waist, hips and thighs, and others cover nearly the entire body. Some are to be worn while carrying out routine activities, others while exercising, and some while sleeping. One is inflated with air from a vacuum cleaner. Another uses an electric hair dryer to blow in warm air. Some are used after a cream, gel or lotion is applied or after the wrap is soaked in a solution.

The garments and wraps, with or without lotions and creams, say that they reduce body dimensions by removing fluids. Most medical experts agree that such treatment will cause a loss of inches and perhaps pounds due to profuse perspiration. But the reductions are temporary. The fluid is soon replaced by drinking or eating.

Remember, rapid and excessive fluid loss is potentially dangerous because it can bring on severe dehydration and can upset the balance of important electrolytes in the body.  Reputable spas are aware of any potential hazards such as this, so do your homework and select a spa with a good reputation.

Some advertising claims that body wrapping will eliminate, or at the least reduce, cellulite but we’ll leave that up to you to determine.  What we can tell you is that visiting a spa or salon for body wrapping may be a wonderfully rejuvenating experience, leaving you rested, relaxed and refreshed.

Herbal wraps.

Some of the higher end spas go so far as to grow their own “herbs” for use in their body wraps, but that isn’t necessary for a good body wrap experience.  Herbs can be fresh or dried and usually organically grown is best. Each herb has a specific effect.  Some increase circulation, another may soothe the skin and so on.

The herbs are steeped in very hot water (almost boiling) then special muslin sheets are soaked in the solution.  It is these herb-infused sheets along with other insulating layers that wrap around the body.

How the treatments work.

The goal is to create a condition not unlike your body when you have a fever.   We all know that when we have a fever, our body eliminates toxins by sweating. It’s the same principle with body wraps.  The results vary.  Some people report a very intense detoxification while for others it might be mild.

Methods of application and content.

Seaweed, mud and salt are popular body wraps.  Most often, the subject is wrapped from neck to toe with the arms set close to the sides of the body.  This can be uncomfortable for someone who suffers from claustrophobia.

The easiest correction for this is to keep the arms free from the wrap.  Most people who are claustrophobic find the works and that all they need to be able to feel free to remove themselves if they choose.

Whatever type of body wrap you select make certain that you feel comfortable with the spa and that a technician is always close at hand. Care should be taken when selecting a salon or spa.  

Some things to consider:

• How long have they been offering body wraps?
• Do they have a licensed clinician whose sole purpose is massage and/or body wraps?
• Where do their herbs and other contents come from?
• Do they offer any special pricing for new clients?
• Will they allow a tour of their facilities prior to purchase?
• Have they had any unresolved complaints reported by the Better Business Bureau?
• Do they have any package pricing for multiple visits?

Watch your local publications for coupon offers.  This can be a good way to try out a service at a bargain.   Ask your friends if they have had a body wrapping experience and whether they enjoyed it and what kind of results did they experience.  You may even want to check for “two for one” specials and try it out with a friend!

Whether the experience reduces your cellulite or not, if you follow the guidelines you are in for a pleasant experience.
