  Endermologie Treatments
  

  Endermologie is a non-invasive cellulite treatment using deep massage and suction to “shrink” the fat cells responsible for cellulite. This mechanical massage technique increases blood and oxygen flow to tissue where cellulite resides, theoretically stimulating the metabolism of fat cells in that area. Fluids from the massaged cells are naturally absorbed and removed during urination. This causes the cells to be temporarily reduced in size.

  The Endermologie technique originated in France’s plastic surgery community and is FDA-approved for the temporary reduction of cellulite. It is frequently used in combination with traditional liposuction.

  What can I expect during an Endermologie treatment?

  During an Endermologie treatment, your physician will set a mechanical roller to massage the treatment area. A suction device will pull gently on the massaged skin to smooth and remove cellulite dimpling. While most patients find the sensation — much like that of a deep tissue massage — to be pleasant, patients who are especially sensitive to pain should speak to their physician. The intensity of the massage can be effectively adjusted for your comfort.

  It is important to be properly hydrated when undergoing the Endermologie procedure. Drinking 6 to 8 glasses of water should be sufficient, and the same level of hydration should be maintained for several weeks after treatment to help flush out the fluids created by the procedure.

  How long does it take?

  Endermologie sessions rarely exceed 45 minutes, but there is no down time — at most, you will experience some brief soreness. Most patients will need anywhere from 10 to 20 such sessions to achieve optimal results. As with all cellulite treatments, the effects are temporary — follow-up sessions will need to be scheduled to maintain results.

  FAQ

  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.

  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.

  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

  Thank you Mariette!

  When I first decided to try endermologie I went to see Mariette at Soma Body Therapy (owner) without a full understanding of the treatment and results. Mariette sat and explained the treatment process, the expected results, the time frame in which to see the results and my part in the overall process.

  We talked for 20 minutes and with absolutely no pressure to purchase a package.

  I decided to buy a package and it was a great decision!

  I (and my boyfriend) noticed the reduction of cellulite and the “glow” of my skin.

  As an added bonus: I have had digestion problems for years and since starting endermologie my “problem” has become regulated (if you know what I mean!)

  Soma Body Therapy  “ROCKS”

  I had never heard of endermologie until I came to Johannesburg. When I found Mariette. I was blown away with her knowledge of the human body. I have been an athlete my entire life and thankfully have never had a problem with cellulite. However, I have had a problem with water retention. I had a very important photo shoot to get ready for and I went to Mariette and I must say I looked fabulous for my shoot. I was cut and glowing.

  Endermologie is amazing. It does more than just rid cellulite, it truly flushes your system and feels amazing while having it done.

  Thank you “ Mariette”

  The Best!

  by Laracante

  I loved my experience with Mariette at Soma Body Therapy in Parkhurst. I have suffered with a condition called Thoracic Outlet Syndrome for over 10 years; after being an elite swimmer since the age of five. After years of intense training, I had no circulation pulsing through my left arm, a consequence that ended my swimming career. After years of reaching out for help from Neurologists, Neurosurgeons, physical therapists, and eastern medicine practitioners…

  Nothing helped with the return of the circulation to my arm like the feeling I was cons equated with after treatments with Mariette! I truly believe in the pulsating machine that is used during the endermologie session, and also the warm spirit of Mariette, to help heal the body and ease the mind. And, I love that Mariette ’s kindness and keen knowledge of Endermologie has eased my mind during treatment, and expanded my film collection.

  I truly had a great experience here

  Cheers!!!

• Get a dimple-free booty

  What you really need to know about smoothing out your body.

  It really does seem like a nasty twist of fate. We women are designed to gain weight on our hips and thighs. It’s what gives us, to quote many men, “curves in all the right places”. However, anywhere between 85 and 95 percent of women end up the downside of those curves: the lumpy, bumpy effect we call cellulite.

  Beautiful from the inside

  Eating foods rich in nutrients which support the connective tissue can be helpful,” write Patrick Holford and Natalie Savona in their book Solve Your Skin Problems (Piatkus). They recommend upping your intake of foods rich in vitamin C, a nutrient essential for healthy collagen production. If you’re carrying a few extra kilos, losing weight can also help. They do caution, however, that weight loss won’t eradicate the problem. Still, the point is that weight-loss will result in a reduction in dimple depth, and we’re certain you won’t complain about that.

  ‘There’s little evidence to suggest that the fat in cellulite is any different to the fat anywhere else on your body’

  Hit me with your laser beam

  While there has been some debate about the efficacy of some cellulite creams, more research is being done into machines. The likes of ultrasound and radio frequency are more able to get to the heart of the matter: fat build-up and the elasticity of the connective tissue. You should note that none of these can cure cellulite. The nature of your skin means that if you have it now, you’ll always be prone to it. However, these treatments can temporarily reduce the appearance and will require long-term maintenance.

  Suction massage

  This is a non-invasive treatment that uses uses a high-powered suction and roller tool to lift and massage cellulite-affected areas. Treatments like Endermologie work on increasing blood flow and stimulating lymphatic drainage. The latest generation of Endermologie is Lipomassage, which adds isometric exercise to the mix, meaning you play an active role in your treatment. Apparently this cuts down on the number of sessions you need as you could see results in as few as six sessions. You may need six to eight weekly treatments at a cost of around R500 per session.

  Mesotherapy

  Not a machine treatment, but a popular one nonetheless, Mesotherapy involves injecting an elixir of pharmaceutical or homeopathic medications, vitamins, minerals, amino acids and enzymes into the skin. This cocktail is said to help rejuvenate the skin by improving blood flow, removing hardened connective tissue, and improving lymphatic drainage. You’re looking at anything upwards of R700 per session. If you’re carrying a few extra kilos, experts advise that you may need anything from eight to 15 sessions, which could cost up to R1 500 per treatment. Maintenance treatments are recommended every second month, and eventually every six months.
