The process known as endermologie may be one of the most effective options available today - for a price, of course.

What Exactly is the Endermologie Cellulite Treatment?

Endermologie is a professionally administered series of cellulite treatments that is performed by a licensed or certified practitioner (in most states) to perform the non invasive procedure on paying clients.

There are currently a limited number of beauty spas and cosmetic surgeon's offices which offer the procedure at this time, but if you search hard enough you should be able to find a provider in a metropolitan area within driving distance.

Endermologie is a skillfully applied process where a technician manipulates a patented endermologie suction device, which performs a vacuum-like suction to the affected areas, usually the thighs, buttocks and sometimes the belly.

The device gently kneads and alternately pinches the skin in these areas, which is supposed to help stimulate circulation, as well as to encourage something called lymphatic drainage?

Lymphatic drainage is where the local lymph system is relieved of toxins and expelled from the body. This is supposed to help cellulite disappear, based on the somewhat popular theory that cellulite is caused by both poor circulation and toxin build up.

The client is fitted with an apparatus similar to panty hose on affected areas as a protection measure to minimize contact between the skin and the endermologie machine.

The recommended course of treatments for best results is is twenty to twenty-five sessions initially, going twice a week and ending the initial treatments during the course of about ten weeks.

Each endermologie cellulite treatment session usually lasts about forty-five minutes to one hour. After the initial treatments are administered at twice per week, it is recommended the patient continue with monthly treatments.

What to Expect from Endermologie

Results from the endermologie cellulite treatment can be pretty impressive, depending on a few variables. Several before and after pictures of clients who received endermologie treatments show a distinct and visible improvement in the area's firmness and texture.

Some endermologie before and after pictures even show a reduction in actual inches around the thighs and buttocks area. This extra bonus?effect may not prove true for every endermologie treatment series, but it certainly would be a nice bonus for anyone who is fortunate enough!

Many patients say that they feel invigorated and energized after the treatments this may be due to the toxin flushing. It is recommended that clients drink tons of water to assist with the flushing of toxins from the body after the treatments.

The going cost for endermologie treatments currently is about $50-$75 per session, depending on your area and the caliber of the treatment facility.

The total cost for the initial twenty to twenty-five treatments is usually anywhere from $1,500-$2,000, and the yearly maintenance?cost can range from about $500-$1,000.

It's definitely not the cheapest treatment available for cellulite, but if your results are exceptional, this may very well be the most effective cellulite treatment you'll ever experience.

It's important to ask any office you are considering for before and after pictures of the results their facility has provided for other customers.

The experience level of the facility and the technician can be the difference between a colossal waste of money and one of the best things you've ever done. Why?

According to some experts, the level of pressure the technician applies can make the difference between outstanding and mediocre results. How does the technician know how much pressure to apply and what technique works best? One word : Experience.

Any way you look at it, endermologie can be a great investment in a firmer, more toned looking you. And, who knows, you may even lose a half a size in the process!
