Endermologie®

Serving Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Endermologie is a clinically proven scientific treatment that reduces the appearance of cellulite. Most people who have cellulite usually know what it is and don't like to talk about it because they are embarrassed by it. Cellulite consists of fatty tissue, which causes a dimpled or lumpy appearance to your skin. If your skin is dimpled or lumpy when you pinch it, you probably have cellulite (and maybe you didn't even know it)! It sometimes looks like the texture of cottage cheese, even on people who are physically fit.

This body contouring treatment originated in France, but is currently patented for use in the United States.

What Does the Treatment Entail?

The non-invasive body contouring procedure typically uses rollers and suction to smooth out and redistribute the fatty deposits, similar to a deep-tissue massage. It also temporarily increases circulation in the treatment area. In this fashion, dimpling and lumps are removed or tightened.

A typical Endermologie body contouring treatment lasts for about 45 minutes. Most people who undergo Endermologie usually need about 14 to 28 of these sessions to see complete results. Monthly sessions following the basic treatment are sometime necessary in order to retain the results. If you are not committed to following through with all of the treatments, you may want to look into alternatives such as liposuction. However, you will see results sooner and in a more targeted way with Endermologie.
