  Endermologie Treatment Johannesburg

  Endermologie 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.

  Frequently Asked Questions:

  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.

  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.

• Liposuction: The Benefits Of Fat Removal

  Date: 2010.09.28 | Category: Body And Beauty Treatment Tips | Response: 0

  

  For years, liposuction has been one of the most popular forms of plastic surgery. Because it is relatively safe and very effective, millions of people have used the technique to take care of troublesome areas of the body where fat tends to stick. Liposuction is not an alternative to diet and exercise.

  Rather, it acts as the final measure to reduce obese in places a traditional diet and exercise program won’t touch. When used right, it can be one of the greatest tools in the fight against fat. Here are some of the benefits of fat removal surgery.

  Appearance

  The main reason people choose to have liposuction done is to improve their appearance. Plastic surgery of all kinds fills a need people have to change things they don’t like about their bodies. A poor body image can lead to low self esteem and chronic depression. It is not, as some people might say, about being vain. It is not for impressing anyone. It’s about being happy with the person that individual sees in the mirror.

  Health

  It may come as some surprise to learn that liposuction can actually provide a health benefit. Excess obese storage on the body can be a dangerous thing, health-wise. This is particularly true for storage in the abdominal region, which has been shown to lead to health problems like heart disease and decreased lung function.

  Removing extra obese not only provides an immediate health boost, but in many cases it leads to a renewed vigor in the patient, encouraging them to redouble their exercise and diet routines so that they never have to worry about excess fat again.

  Improved Status

  Whether we want to admit it or not, there is a considerable “fat bias” in this country. It might be shameful, but study after study has shown that men and especially women are continually passed over for job promotions, job offers, and are discarded as potential romantic partners because of their weight. The reasons for this are uncertain.

  Some sociologists blame factors like Hollywood and the advertising industry for placing a premium on skinny girls. Others cite evolutionary factors as being behind the trend: we tend to see thin people as healthier, and therefore stronger, with a greater potential for passing down good genes. Whatever the reason, surgeries like liposuction have been shown to increase status by removing excess fat and helping people attain the bodies they desire.

  Why an increasing number of people are going for Liposuction

  A large number of people are continuously trying to find new and better techniques of toning down, as obesity is fast emerging as one of the most serious health problems of the present day. One of the techniques using surgery to relieve the body of excess fat is liposuction.

  This technique makes use of a suction instrument known as cannula that is inserted into the body through a small incision that pulls out the excess fat. When compared to the different traditional means of weight loss, Liposuction has certain benefits as mentioned below.

  Liposuction helps you to lose several kilos within hours. Most of the other weight loss methods like dieting or following a rigorous workout regime require a lot of hard work for months, and it is tough to maintain your motivation for such a long period. However, lipo not just helps you remove the few extra pounds instantaneously, but it also motivates you to stay in shape without adhering to rigorous workouts.

  Other conventional practices like dieting can result in many complications and create severe health risks. However, liposuction as a technique is not only safer but is also free from serious adverse effects on your health. Even if there are minor surgical scars on the body, they are not long lasting and they disappear in a short time.

  Liposuction is very effective in removing fat from some areas of the body like the chin and thighs from which extracting fat is tough through other methods. Liposuction is helpful in effective fat removal from each and every part of the body.

  Liposuction might have many advantages, but it should be remembered that it is a surgical process. It is advisable that before you decide on whether to go for the surgery, you take suggestions from a competent physician and ensure that the process won’t have any side effects on your body. You must also be ready for taking a short leave from work as you might require some time  to recuperate.

  Benifits of Endermologie after Liposuction

  While many plastic surgeons encourage patients to pursue massage therapy after recovery is over to help the body heal and reduce the risks of bumps and lumps developing after surgery, patients may also benefit from the FDA-approved treatment called Endermologie.

  Endermologie uses mechanical rollers and heat to increase circulation in the body and is typically performed to address cellulite; however, it is a powerful and relatively effective body reshaping treatment for patients who are noticing small bumps and dimples in certain areas after plastic surgery.

  Endermologie is a non-invasive procedure that has become increasingly popular in recent years as more people look for non-surgical procedures that will get rid of cellulite. The procedure involves applying a mechanical roller against the skin and using a suction device to manipulate the skin tissues and increase circulation. The treatment itself is powerful enough to stimulate the skin and underlying tissues so that the connective tissues can be smoothed out over the muscles which then creates a smoother, sculpted appearance on the skin’s surface.

  This effect may be especially valuable for plastic surgery patients who have undergone liposuction, body sculpting or other procedures and have loose or sagging skin as a result of the fat removal. The skin and underlying muscle tissues can be suctioned and smoothed out with the help of the endermologie procedure.
