Candice Swanepoel Let's be honest: if you have the third stage of cellulite and serious problems with excess weight, then a miracle most likely will not happen - after one procedure you will not leave the salon ten kilograms lighter and a couple of sizes smaller. But these procedures will help start the lymph, boost metabolism and remove unnecessary fluid from the body - you will lose a few centimeters in the waist and hips, and maybe even the scale will show that you have become a kilogram lighter. Remember that the process of losing weight is very individual, so everyone’s results will be different.
Effect of the procedure
A noticeable result is achieved after the first procedure. There is immediately less fat and it loses density. The final result will be visible in 2-3 weeks. If the client continues to control their weight, the effects of ulphite will last about two years. Most often, the doctor recommends a course of one to three procedures per problem area, with an interval of approximately three weeks between them. The cosmetologist will also recommend other body treatments that can be combined with ulphite and enhance its effect.
Intensive cellulite therapy 3 in 1 in the beauty space [comfort zone]
Gisele Bündchen If you are planning an important event, but did not have time to lose weight to fit into the dress of your dreams, then we advise you to sign up for this procedure, since after the first session, minus three centimeters in your waist and hips is guaranteed.
True, they can return just as quickly (the next day), so in order to maintain the effect, you need to take a course. In addition to the fact that this therapy models the contours of the figure, it also leaves behind a feeling of lightness throughout the body. The treatment includes several alternating stages of manual massage and wraps, but it all begins with a welcome aromatic ritual: you are asked to close your eyes, relax and take a few deep breaths to feel yourself immersed in a cloud of cedar, rose, sandalwood, geranium and sweet orange essential oils . Then the master begins lymphatic drainage massage of the legs with myofascial techniques. It is done with butter, working the muscles and fascia as much as possible. Afterwards, a warming mask is applied to the lower part of the body, which increases lipolytic and modeling effects, activating blood and lymph flow. After a few minutes, it is removed and a signature massage [comfort zone] with anti-cellulite cream, which includes the legendary “Brazilian Butt” technique, begins, this stimulates the acceleration of the process of breaking down subcutaneous fat in problem areas. The final stage consists of two blocks. First: for 15 minutes you are wrapped in bandage tapes soaked in a special composition of pure essential oils of lemon, orange, mint and ivy extract, which has a draining effect, relieves swelling and removes excess fluid. And at this time you get a foot massage. The second, final stage: after removing the bandages, a cooling gel is passed over the body, which gives an incredible feeling of lightness.
How is the procedure performed?
The non-traumatic Izojay hardware procedure strengthens the muscles of the face and body and eliminates swelling. Electrodes are attached to the body in the right places. They give impulses by tensing the muscles.
The essence of the procedure is the impact of electrical impulses on the muscles, each impulse causes muscle tension and subsequent relaxation. During the procedure, each individual muscle that is stimulated contracts evenly - such a static local load gives the best therapeutic result.
"Endosphere Plus" at the Remedy Lab clinic
Isabel Goulart Remedy Lab experts combined two of the most popular body procedures: the hardware “Endosphere” and the author’s manual sculpting massage in the waist and abdomen, resulting in a new service for a slim figure appearing on the clinic’s menu.
It's super powerful and sometimes painful. It is worth taking into account that it has restrictions for people with oncology, dermatitis, thrombophlebitis, viral infection, and pregnancy. Everyone else can go to it once a week; more often it is not necessary, since the body must come to its senses and recover. During the first part of the procedure, the master works on your entire body, except for the abdomen, using the Endosphere apparatus, going through a special cylindrical attachment (manipulator), which consists of 50 rotating silicone spheres arranged in the form of a honeycomb. The affected area is pre-treated with oil - this is done for better gliding. These manipulations activate microcirculation, improving blood circulation, lymph flow and, as a result, nutrition of cells and muscle tissue and their saturation with oxygen. Plus they stimulate the removal of toxins and excess fluid from the body. The second part of the procedure is a manual massage of the abdomen and waist. The master works with an intensity and pressure that is comfortable for you, sculpting Galatea out of you. After the first session, you will notice that the quality of your skin has improved: it has tightened, smoothed and become more elastic. In addition, “Endosphere Plus” starts metabolic processes, and also trains blood vessels, tones weakened muscles and helps relieve muscle pain.
Fighting excess weight and cellulite
Body care procedures offered by beauty salons have different purposes.
Preparatory procedures improve microcirculation and blood flow in tissues, reduce the volume of subcutaneous fat and the appearance of cellulite.
Lymphatic drainage - removes excess fluid that accumulates toxins.
Lipolytic - breaks down excess fat deposits.
Corrective - increase the tone of muscle tissue, improve the structure of the skin.
Prescribing a course of necessary procedures is possible only after diagnosing the skin condition, during which the most effective way to influence the existing problem is determined. The fight against cellulite and excess weight is not a one-time procedure, but a course, and the result is possible only with constant targeted action.
So, what will they offer you in a modern beauty salon?
Manual (from Latin manualis - manual) anti-cellulite massage is a procedure in which the master carefully works on problem areas, manually adjusting the intensity and load. Not recommended during pregnancy.
The procedure on the LPG device - the use of mechanized roller massage in combination with vacuum - stimulates tissue, improves the structure of the skin and subcutaneous fat, and effectively treats cellulite. Can be done during pregnancy, excluding the abdominal area.
Vacuum massage - the skin of problem areas is exposed to vacuum using special plastic cans, as a result fibrous tissue is softened, the “orange peel” is smoothed out, and excess fluid is removed. It doesn't hurt, but bruising is possible after the massage. It is acceptable to use during pregnancy, with the exception of the abdominal area.
Stone therapy (hot jadeite stones) - massage with heated jadeite stones - includes more than 60 elements of the periodic table, which can have a positive effect on many human organs. The different sizes of stones allow them to be used for both body and facial massage. Due to temperature effects, it is contraindicated during pregnancy.
Electrolipolysis - plates and the thinnest needles are applied to the body, through which a weak and healthy low-frequency current is supplied. Under the influence of the impulse, metabolism is activated, enzymes are formed in tissues that accelerate the breakdown of fats, lymph outflow (lymphatic drainage) is stimulated, and the permeability of intercellular membranes improves, thereby promoting the active release of cells from fat granules. The rhythmic impact of the impulse on the connective tissue increases the elasticity of the skin. Due to the effects of current, electrolysis is contraindicated during pregnancy. It should not be done during menstruation either.
Ultrasound therapy is a deep pulse effect on the subcutaneous fat layer using a special device that breaks down fat deposits and is used in the fight against cellulite and excess weight. Not recommended during pregnancy.
Computer pressotherapy - the client’s data (height, weight, gender, age, pulse, pressure, presence of varicose veins) is first entered into the device. They are analyzed by a computer, as a result of which an individual course of pressotherapy procedures is established. During the procedure itself, wave-like mechanical pressure is applied to the tissue using an air-filled suit. It has a lymphatic drainage effect, reduces subcutaneous fat deposits, and is a method for the treatment of cellulite. Due to the mechanical effect on the abdomen, it is contraindicated during pregnancy.
Body restorative therapy (mesotherapy) - a medicinal cocktail is injected into the areas affected by cellulite using a special device for microinjections. Its active elements transform large fat molecules into smaller ones and promote their breakdown and elimination. A course of mesotherapy gives a good effect for reducing body volume, removing toxins, eliminating edema, and optimizing the functioning of the body's excretory systems. It is not recommended during pregnancy as it is a painful procedure.
Ozone therapy - injections of ozone-oxygen mixture into problem areas. Getting into the problem area, the ozone-oxygen mixture accelerates the metabolic process, promotes the destruction of fibrous tissue along with dense subcutaneous fat deposits - the mesh structure of collagen fibers around the fat cell turns into a cellular one, resulting in a change in the skin texture. Not recommended during pregnancy.
Myostimulation is passive gymnastics: special plates are applied to the muscles, through which alternating current indirectly affects the muscles through nerve endings. A load arises that simulates muscle contraction under various loads: water aerobics, aerobics, strength training. Microcirculation and lymph flow are activated, tone is restored, but without physical effort, fatigue and muscle pain. During the procedure, minor discomfort may occur, which gradually disappears. Due to exposure to current, the method is contraindicated during pregnancy. Myostimulation cannot be done during menstruation.
Thalassotherapy - combines peeling with sea minerals and wrapping based on professional cosmetic lines. The procedures are based on the contrasting effects of heat and cold. It is possible to combine seaweed wrap with paraffin. The first stage of the procedures is “hot”: the drug is applied to the body, evenly distributed over problem areas, wrapped in a special film and left for a while (from 45 minutes to an hour), then covered with a thermal blanket, which creates a sauna effect and allows you to activate metabolic processes in the problem area . Activation of metabolic processes occurs due to direct stimulation of lipolysis (decomposition of adipose tissue) by the active components of algae (iodine, organic acids). As a result, fat reserves are consumed. The second stage of the procedures is “cold”: menthol is added to the wrapping composition, which in large doses causes a feeling of cold. Cold stops metabolic processes and causes contraction and narrowing of blood vessels and capillaries. Thanks to this, blood and lymph circulation improves, and the breakdown products of adipose tissue (water, carbon dioxide, toxins) are removed from the problem area with blood and lymph, from where they enter the kidneys and intestines.
Alternating heat and cold increases skin tone and elasticity, normalizes blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, and eliminates the “orange peel” symptom.
During pregnancy, such exposure to heat and cold is contraindicated, but you can do wraps without temperature contrast - so-called isothermal (based on body temperature). In this case, thalassotherapy improves the elasticity and structure of the skin, tightens the skin through active nutrition and hydration.
Paraffin therapy is another type of wrap using purified molten hot paraffin. The mechanism of action of paraffin wrap is as follows: when paraffin hardens, it contracts, tightly grasping and squeezing problem areas. Since the skin is deprived of air access, its temperature rises, the sweat and sebaceous glands begin to work intensively, as a result of which the skin is freed from toxic waste products, and the beneficial substances contained in the nutritional composition applied before the wrap, on the contrary, freely penetrate the skin. Due to the compression effect and increased temperature, this procedure is not recommended during pregnancy.
