Lumpy Bumpy

Cellulite.

The word just makes my stomach drop. It’s something of an embarrassment to 85% of all women (even though it’s not our fault). I’m sure you’ve all seen it, if not on your own backside then on someone else’s.

Just when you think it’s a lost cause…rescued by the French! LPG Systems pioneered a sub dermal approach to treating those lumps and bumps. Endermologie was originally developed in the 1980’s as a treatment for keloid scars. While being treated, many patients noticed a reduction of problem areas (i.e. hips, saddlebags and tummy pooch) and skin texture. Since then the treatment has been improved and cleared by the FDA as the first treatment to improve the appearance of cellulite.

The treatment lasts for 35 minutes and involves wearing a full length bodysuit (definately not a great look) followed by a massage. The massage is done by a certified technician with a mechanized device that has two motorized rollers and regulated suction - a bit like a vacuum cleaner. The results are a loss in inches and the reduction of cellulite's appearance. The Endermologie treatment feels amazing and really gets the blood flowing!

Ok, it’s not a miracle or complete cure-all, but it sure helps! It’s recommended to start with two treatments a week for 14-20 sessions followed by once-a-month treatments for a year. Prices generally run $100.00 per treatment session.
