FAQ – Endermologie | LPG Endermologie – the best anti cellulite treatments in SA
FAQ – ENDERMOLOGIE
SOMA BODY THERAPY 011.327.4490
How many sessions before I see results?
The average women will need 14 to 20 treatments to achieve optimal results. Treatments are generally 35 minutes in duration, twice a week. Once a month follow-up treatments are recommended to maintain results.Click here to request a booking.How long do the results last?
For several months up to a few years, depending on age, lifestyle, and hormonal changes. Once-a-month maintenance sessions are recommended after completion of the initial sessions, which maintains the results and keeps the toxins and abnormal fluid from building back up in the connective tissues.
How long does a session last? Do you just work on my problem areas?
Sessions last an average of 35 minutes. Your problem areas are focused on, but time is given to other areas to stimulate general circulation and elimination.
What is cellulite?
Cellulite is a skin condition that affects more than 90% of women. It is the “orange peel” skin most women begin to notice in their 20s. It tends to worsen with age and is related to hormonal variations. Resulting from circulation impairment on a micro level, cellulite is a vicious circle involving abnormal fluid retention in connective tissue and enlargement of fat cells.
Does this replace exercise?
No. In fact, it is highly recommended that you add diet and exercise to the routine you follow while undergoing Endermologie ® treatments. In most cases, this improves results. It really works on a different area than exercise ~ which effects the deeper structures, which is why even women who work out often have cellulite.
Do diet and exercise get rid of cellulite?
Since cellulite is a complex problem, it must be addressed from the subcutaneous layer, to act on fluid retention. This fluid retention is abnormal. It is not the kind of fluid you would lose by exercising – it is a combination of fluid and toxins that have built up in the connective tissues. Whereas both 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 exercise regularly and follow a low fat-diet may still have cellulite.
Does this treatment work on men also?
Definitely ~ especially for problem areas such as “love handles”, stomages and loose pectoral tissues.
How long do I have to wait after liposuction or a tummy tuck to receive treatment?
This depends, but usually you can start once the compressive garments come off. However, Endermologie ® is an excellent way to prepare the skin for liposuction or a tummy tuck before surgery ~ allowing for optimal results.
Does the machine tone the skin? Will I lose weight?
You will most likely notice an improvement in skin tone after using the LPG machine. Appearance of stretch marks and loose skin may be improved. It is not a weight loss machine. However, many clients report being able to lose weight, especially fat weight, more easily while using the machine than they ever could before.
Does it hurt?
The sensation is similar to a deep massage and most clients find it quite pleasant. The strength of the treatment can be individually adjusted to your comfort level. What will I feel like afterwards? Most clients report a feeling of relaxation and an increase in energy. Since the Lymphatic system is stimulated, it is recommended that you drink at least two liters of water every day during the duration of your treatment in order to aid in elimination of the mobilized fat.
Why are photos taken before and after the session of treatments?
Photos are taken to provide an accurate record of improvements and to help the Endermologie practitioner provide better treatments through comparative analysis.
Are there any side effects?
Minor temporary bruising may occur.

Endermologie Treatments | Endermologie Center in Parkhurst SA
What is Endermologie®?
ENDERMOLOGIE® is a proven technique, which has been in use for about 12 years in Europe, United States, Asia, South America and is now in South Africa.It uses a low-pressure vacuum pump to massage the skin between two motorized rollers, sucking it up into a fold or pleat. This rolling suction action reduces oedema in fat cells and increases the circulation, unblocking the blood and oxygen flow in the suffocated cellulitic tissues. The connective tissues are stretched, allowing the skin to go from the puckered look of cellulite to its normal smooth appearance.
The drainage of stagnant waste products via the lymphatic system and fine blood capillaries is also accelerated, resulting in more refined curves and a beautiful, toned skin. ENDERMOLOGIE® is already popular with many women worldwide.
Clinically, the effectiveness of ENDERMOLOGIE® lies in its action upon cutaneous and subcutaneous structures such as connective tissues, fatty tissues, as well as vascular and lymphatic circulation. As a result, the body is reshaped; skin quality and texture are improved.
Does it work?
Yes. ENDERMOLOGIE® is an international phenomenon in the beauty, health and wellbeing arena. With a strong presence in over 95 countries with 110,000 treatments performed world wide per day, ENDERMOLOGIE® sets the benchmark in the industry for slimming, anti-cellulite and anti-aging.
Is it painful?
No. In fact, an ENDERMOLOGIE® experience is very pleasurable. Being non-invasive and with the use of a hygienic body stocking, there is no pain and no down time. While you relax and escape to your own world, an experienced clinician attends to your wellbeing needs and ENDERMOLOGIE® delivers an unsurpassed treatment on your whole body.
Why should I choose Endermologie®?
ENDERMOLOGIE®’s major point of difference is the synchronisation of mechanical rollers and suction in a controlled manner. There is a common misconception that one will work without the other. However, if a machine only has suction, the outcome will be no more than a slight increase in circulation. Without controlled suction, there is a substantial risk of tissue damage and bruising. On the other hand, machines that are designed with just rollers merely roll over the skin and have no affect on the connective tissue other than a sensorial feeling.
When will I see a result?
Similar to any results-driven treatment, multiple treatments are required. The quantity is determined by your age, body shape, cellulite type, cellulite grade and what your desired outcomes and expectations are. For optimum results, a consultation by a certified ENDERMOLOGIE® therapist and licensed clinic is required. Typically, 14-20 treatments are required.
How much does it cost?
An ENDERMOLOGIE® treatment typically retails between R290-R380. It is recommended to purchase packages to receive the best price.

Ozone Therapy | Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Parkhurst SA
What is Ozone Therapy?
Oxygen Chamber Therapy is a common way to describe the combination of Ozone and Steam Sauna Therapy. Ozone, or “activated oxygen”, is introduced into a special steam sauna cabinet, where it then is absorbed transdermally (across the skin) of the occupant. The result is a health effect on the occupant that combines the beneficial oxygenation and detoxification effects of both Ozone and Steam Sauna Therapy.
Over a period of 20-30 minutes, ozone breaks down into one regular molecule of two atoms of oxygen – by giving up one single reactive atom of singlet oxygen. Medical ozone is made when medical grade oxygen is electrically activated (using an ozone generator) to form ozone. Ozone is germicidal, bactericidal, and fungicidal. Oxygen has these properties too, but less strongly.oxygen, such as ozone, people consistently report that these conditions as well as their general health and energy levels dramatically improve.
From a technical point of view, cells infected with a virus are already weakened and this shows up as lowered levels of enzymatic activity in the cell wall, or “lipid envelope”. This substandard protein coating is unbalanced and incomplete, and it is the perfect attractor for the extra oxygen. Once the ozone attaches itself to the infected cell, it is destroyed and flushed from the system. Healthy cells are completely unaffected and there is no residual toxicity.BenefitsWhen the body is flooded with an activated form of:
