EXPERT ADVICE - FACE

Our experts answer all your questions about endermologie® face treatments.

  • WHAT ARE THE CONTRAINDICATIONS?

    Strict contraindications to endermologie® treatments are:

    – Cancer in progress
    – Infection, skin rash
    – Illness during inflammatory flare-up
    – Anti-coagulant treatment
    – Blood disorder
    – Herpes
    – Cosmetic surgery (ask for a medical certificate)
    – Injections (wait 2 weeks)

    People with hypothyroidism, diabetes or undergoing a long-term corticosteroid treatment respond less well to our treatments. In case of doubt, please consult your general practitioner or your attending physician.

  • HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO SEE THE FIRST RESULTS?

    From the first sessions*, your skin is brought back to life! Your complexion becomes radiant immediately, your skin texture looks more refined and your skin feels more supple thanks to the reactivation of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid production. The results keep improving after each session. For optimal results, sessions can be scheduled several times a week at the beginning of the treatment (fibroblasts can be constantly stimulated). The first month is important to trigger the process at the skin level. After that, one session per month is enough. A beauty anti-ageing lifestyle to be adopted all year round!

  • IS IT PAINFUL?

    No, the session is very pleasant. The settings are customised depending on skin sensitivity. After the first few minutes, you can feel a “cellular awakening” and the acceleration of blood circulation. Your skin is re-oxygenated and a feeling of well-being sets in. It’s a true sensory experience!

  • THERE ARE MANY OTHER TECHNIQUES FOR FACIAL, ANTI-AGEING TREATMENTS. WHAT IS DIFFERENT about endermologie® treatments?

    Traditional facial treatments are limited by their superficial action. Other techniques can damage the skin or have side effects. The endermologie® technique stimulatestheskin naturally, painlessly and without any risks for visible results. The endermologie® face treatments help you age better, while retaining your natural expressions.

    The 30 years experience of LPG SYSTEMS® and numerous scientific studies also guarantee remarkable effectiveness in the complex world of beauty.

  • CAN I CONTINUE TO USE MY LPG® SKINCARE PRODUCTS DURING MY ENDERMOLOGIE® TREATMENTS?

    During the sessions, the skin will require different and more suitable nourishment. Our LPG® Skincare range is the solution to get past the skin’s “imperviousness” to active ingredients. LPG®products, thanks to their unique composition, accelerate the visible effects on the skin during the treatment (+50% results).

    They are recommended after a personalised skin diagnosis and depending on theprotocols.

    LPG practitioners are experts who know all about how the skin works. They will help you select a comprehensive treatment tailored to your goals!

EXPERT ADVICE - BODY

Our experts have the answers to all your questions about endermologie® body treatments.

  • WHAT ARE THE CONTRAINDICATIONS?

    Strict contraindications to endermologie® treatments are:

    – Cancer in progress
    – Infection, skin rash
    – Illness during an inflammatory flare-up
    – Anti-coagulant treatment
    – Blood disorder
    – Organ transplants (kidneys, liver, etc.)
    – Renal failure

    People with hypothyroidism, diabetes or undergoing a long-term corticosteroid treatment respond less well to our treatments. In case of doubt, please consult your general practitioner or your attending physician.

  • WILL THE RESULTS LAST?

    A simple metaphor is in order: you can’t stay strong all year round by doing 2 weeks of sport during your summer holidays. The same applies to endermologie® treatment sessions. During the booster phase (2 sessions per week for 1 month), the goal is to send enough messages to our slimming cells to create a sustainable cellular awakening. In a few weeks, depending on your objectives, the technique will release resistant fat, smooth away cellulite, reshape forms or firm your skin. After this intensive period, it is important to continue regularly stimulating these cells so they don’t fall back to their old, lethargic habits. The good news is that one session per month is sufficient to reactivate this cellular memory and leverage its slimming and firming effects. Just like physical exercise, endermologie® becomes a new lifestyle.

  • SHOULD I DIET AND EXERCISE AT THE SAME TIME?

    It all depends on your weight and your beauty objectives. Almost any diet can help you lose weight, but not always where you want it. Orange-peel skin and localised fat in certain areas of the body (saddle bags, buttocks or thighs) are resistant to diet and exercise. To treat them, endermologie®body treatments are particularly effective*. For optimal results, it is best to combine your endermologie® programme with a varied, balanced diet and regular physical exercise.

  • I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH WATER RETENTION. ARE ENDERMOLOGIE® TREATMENTS EFFECTIVE?

    Yes, endermologie® treatments stimulate circulatory exchanges to eliminate excess water while providing an immediate and lasting sensation of well-being. Over the course of your sessions, your legs become more refined and regain their natural shape while the overall quality of your skin improves.

  • I’M PREGNANT. CAN I GET ENDERMOLOGIE® TREATMENTS?

    During your pregnancy, the only effective treatments will be the drainage of the legs as well as anti-ageing face and hand treatments. Please consult your general practitioner beforehand.

  • I THOUGHT THAT A QUICK DIET AND A FEW AB EXERCISES WOULD BE ENOUGH TO LOSE MY BELLY, BUT APPARENTLY THE PROBLEM IS SAGGING SKIN. WHAT CAN I DO?

    A little extra belly does not always mean it is storing fat. It could just be sagging skin and in this case, diets or ab exercises won’t help you. To effectively treat this area, the initial assessment is fundamental.

    What’s the test? Just gently pinch the skin fold. If the skin between your fingers is thin and the fold lacks substance, it’s a sagging skin problem. Other tell-tale signs include wrinkled skin, stretch marks or a frowning belly button. The endermologie® treatment uses specific maneuvers to stimulate the youth cells (fibroblasts) at the skin surface, making it firmer and more toned.

  • WHY DO I NEED TO WEAR A SPECIAL ENDERMOWEAR® SUIT?

    Endermowear®is THE suit to wear for an endermologie® body treatment. Strictly for personal use, it guarantees perfect hygiene and its opaque areas respect your privacy during the treatment. The unique composition of the endermowear® suit provides excellent adhesion to the skin fold for an even more effective endermologie® session.

  • ARE ENDERMOLOGIE® TREATMENTS AN ALTERNATIVE TO LIPOSUCTION?

    Some women consider liposuction as the last resort to eliminate resistant fat tissue. However, it has been scientifically proven that the endermologie® technique is able to naturally release localised and resistant fat with the additional benefit of reshaping curves, eliminating cellulite and firming the skin. Painless and without any side effects, the endermologie® technique also stands out as the solution of choice in cases where liposuction is not recommended (circulatory disorders, insufficient volume, etc.). However, if liposuction is done, it is strongly recommended to combine the two techniques to optimise results. Before the operation, the sessions prepare and soften the skin tissue to facilitate the surgery. After the operation and if recommended by your surgeon, they facilitate the resorption of oedemas and haematomas and effectively improve the skin quality. In any event, a comprehensive review should be carried out to determine the best approach to adopt.
