What is it cellulite ?
Cellulite is a condition that occurs in men and women where the skin of the lower limbs, abdomen and/or pelvic region become dimpled.

What causes the cellulite:
Cellulite can be the result of a weakening of the connective tissue, diminished microcirculation, hormonal problems, or hereditary factors (gender, genetics, etc.).

It is caused by an inflammation of fat cells located in the hypodermus. When the environment of these cells (lymphatic and blood systems) is healthy, excess lipids are dissolved by enzymes. However if the lymphatic and blood systems are not eliminating toxins as they should, the enzymes cannot effectively eliminate the lipids, which may lead to the formation of cellulite.

In order to eliminate cellulite we first have to treat the environment. Photoderma specialists will determine the best treatment for your type of cellulite to help you achieve the best results possible.

Endermology

Endermology is a unique, non-invasive way of shaping your body, reducing the appearance of cellulite and improving overall skin fitness. In its original form Endermology® was used to rehabilitate scars, burns and damaged muscular tissue when a surprising side-affect was discovered ― the reduction of cellulite and significant inch loss from the body.

The Keymodule’s small hand-held, motorized treatment head with specially designed rollers performs the Endermology treatment. By gently lifting and rolling the skin the Keymodule® stimulates the venous and lymphatic systems thereby eliminating toxins. Fibroblasts are stimulated to increase the collagen and elastin production generating a healthier rejuvenated skin tone.

The motorized rollers are gently run over the full length of the body wrapped in a body stocking and then concentrated on the problem areas. The controlled succion gently lifts and rolls your skin, to deeply massage the affected areas, increasing the cutaneous blood flow by 400 percent (Laser Doppler measurements) and lymphatic flow by 300 percent (Lymphoscintigraphy measurements). Toxins and abnormal fluid retention buildup is expelled as connective fibers are stretched and restored.
