FACE

WHAT ARE THE CONTRAINDICATIONS?

Strict contraindications to endermologie^® include:
– Cancer in progression
– Infection or skin rash
– Disease with inflammatory eruption
– Anticoagulant treatment
– Blood disease
– 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 very first sessions, your skin is brought back to life! Your complexion becomes radiant immediately, your skin texture is refined and your skin more supple thanks to the reactivation of the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. The results then keep improving after each session. For quicker results, sessions can be scheduled several times a week at the beginning of the program (the fibroblast 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-aging lifestyle to be adopted all year round!

IS IT PAINFUL?

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

THERE ARE MANY OTHER TECHNIQUES FOR FACIAL, ANTI-AGING TREATMENTS.
WHAT DIFFERENTIATES ENDERMOLOGIE^® FROM THE OTHER TECHNIQUES?

Traditional facial treatments are limited by their superficial action. Other techniques can damage the skin or have side effects. The endermologie^® technique “mechanizes” the skin naturally, painlessly, and without any risks for visible results. Face endermologie^® treatments help you to age better and to retain your natural expressions.
LPG’s 30 years of experience and countless scientific studies are also a guarantee of remarkable effectiveness that stands out in the complex world of beauty solutions.

CAN I CONTINUE USING MY COSMETIC PRODUCTS DURING THE ENDERMOLOGIE^® TREATMENT PROGRAM?

During your sessions, your skin will need a different and more appropriate nutrition. Endermologie^® cosmetics are the solution, and they will fight against the skin’s built up “drug tolerance” to the main active ingredients.
Thanks to their unique formulas, LPG skincare helps to accelerate the visible effects on the skin during the treatment program (+50% results!). They are recommended after a personalized skin diagnosis in line with the protocols of the device. LPG practitioners are experts who know how the skin works. They will recommend a comprehensive treatment tailored to your goals!

WILL THE RESULTS LAST?

The best way to answer this question is with a metaphor: exercising two weeks during your summer vacation won’t keep you fit for the rest of the year, will it? The same is true for your endermologie^® sessions. During the attack 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 curves or firm your skin. After this intensive period, it is important to regularly continue to stimulate 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.

It is a unique sensory experience!

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 localized fat in certain areas of the body (saddlebags, buttocks or thighs) are immune to diets and exercise. To get rid of them, the endermologie^® technique has proven to be particularly effective. The ideal is to associate your endermologie^® program with a varied and balanced diet as well as regular physical exercise for optimal effectiveness.

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH WATER RETENTION. IS ENDERMOLOGIE^® AN EFFECTIVE SOLUTION?

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 streamlined and regain their natural shape while the overall quality of your skin improves.

I AM PREGNANT. CAN I GET ENDERMOLOGIE^® TREATMENTS?

During pregnancy, the only effective treatments will be the drainage of the legs as well as anti-aging facial 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 excess 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 telltale signs include wrinkled skin, stretch marks or a frowning belly button. endermologie^® 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?

The endermowear™ suit is THE outfit to be worn during a Body endermologie^® session. Strictly used 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 grab of the skin fold for an even more effective endermologie^® session

CAN ENDERMOLOGIE^® BE USED AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO LIPOSUCTION?

Some women consider liposuction as the last resort to get rid of their resistant fat. However, it has been scientifically proven that endermologie^® is able to naturally release localized and resistant fat with the additional benefit of reshaping curves, eliminating cellulite and firming the skin. Painless and without any side effects, endermologie^® 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 optimize 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 edemas and hematomas and effectively improve skin quality. In any case, a comprehensive review should be carried out to determine the best approach to adopt.
