Cellulite Treatments at the Spa – What to Expect


Advertisement

Are patches of cellulite preventing you from looking your best? Liposuction and body contouring treatments can help eliminate fat cells completely, but surgery is no longer your only choice – many spas are catering to clients who want to reduce the appearance of cellulite and improve their figure, without resorting to needles or painful surgery.   

From body wraps to vacuum massage, here are some of the top non-invasive cellulite reduction options available at your local day spa or medispa:  

Synergie Celluilte Treatments  

The Synergie system is the only cellulite reduction treatment that has received approval from the FDA, and can not only help reduce the appearance of cellulite, but can also help improve the texture and tone of the skin. Synergie Cellulite treatments are comprised of a vigorous massage that increases circulation and helps tighten up loose skin. The body is wrapped in a tight bodysuit, and the treatment begins with a vacuum-enabled massage on the entire body. This vacuum is powerful enough to reach the subdermal layers of the skin, the areas where cellulite and fat may have accumulated, and the technique helps to break down these cells so that the body can release them through the lymphatic system.   

Synergie Celluite treatments are typically administered as a series of treatments so that the body can adjust and detoxify naturally. Most people see a visible difference after just one session, with significant weight loss and reduction of inches after 6 – 8 treatments.  

Cellulite Reduction Body Wraps  

Body wraps have been used for centuries as a skin rejuvenation and body treatment, and can not only keep skin looking fresh and beautiful, but may also help with the body’s natural detoxification process. Seaweed and clay body wraps are particularly effective for managing cellulite because they provide a deep cleansing to the top of the skin and help improve circulation overall. Increased circulation can help the body get rid of excess toxins, leaving you with smooth and healthy-looking skin and reducing the appearance of cellulite.  

Endermologie Cellulite Treatments  

Endermologie Cellulite Treatments are another non-surgical opportunity to get rid of cellulite, and can help reshape, tighten and tone the entire body. Endermologie treatments are particularly effective for reshaping the body after pregnancy, but can help anyone with loose or bumpy skin achieve  a sleeker figure. The treatment makes use of a motorized massage device that reaches deep within the skin’s tissue to mobilize fat and toxins. A series of treatments may help get rid of the appearance of cellulite and improve the overall texture and tone of the skin.  

Endermologie was first developed in France in the 1980’s as a skin rejuvenation treatment, but can now be found at spas and cosmetic surgery centers around the world.  

Aqua Massage for Cellulite Removal  

Aqua massage techniques are another option for getting rid of cellulite and improving the texture and tone of the skin. An aqua massage makes use of an anti-cellulite treatment lotion and oils that help stimulate circulation and draw blood to the skin’s surface. A vigorous massage, followed by powerful hydro-jets can help to loosen up fatty deposits, and then a light massage can help remove these toxins from the body through the lymphatic system. This technique is only available at select medispas around the country, but may be a valuable way to combat cellulite for good.  

If unsightly patches of cellulite around your thighs, hips and buttocks are ruining your figure, a non-invasive cellulite treatment can help you achieve a more attractive appearance. 

Whether you’re interested in a body wrap or Endermologie treatment, learn more about cellulite removal treatment options by contacting a medspa or cosmetic surgery center in your area.
