What is Endermologie?
At its most simple Endermologie is a mechanical massage, using mechanical stimulation with the use of aspiration (suction) and a motorised flap and roller. It is 100% natural and non-invasive helping with a range of aesthetic issues such as cellulite, loose skin, scars and burns. LPG was founded by Louis-Paul Guitay in the 1980s after he was involved in a bad car accident in which he suffered skin burns and muscle damage. Following hours and months of manual massage, Louis realised that there weren’t any technologies or machines that were available to speed up the process of recovery. Consequently, using his background as an engineer, Louis launched his first endermologie® prototype in 1983 designed to help people recover from muscle and tissue damage. Over the years, as the technology was developed and improved, Louis realised the technology was also improving the quality and appearance of the skin. As such, the aesthetic side of LPG endermologie® was born.
What are the effects of Endermologie on fat cells?
Endermologie stimulates the micro circulation (fat cells compressed against each other, in between this lies blood and lymph vessels, these drain and oxygenate the cell), once stimulated with Endermologie, this causes a negative preasure on the fat cell allowing the release of fatty acids (toxins) causing Lipolysis (shrinkage of the fat cell). In contrast to a lot of the techniques available on the market, LPG® endermologie offers a 100% natural alternative. The endermologie® technique “mechanises” the skin naturally, painlessly, and without any risks for visible results.
What are the effects of Endermologie on Cellulite?
Cellulite is compressed fat cells in the sub dermis of the skin pushing against the epidermal wall of the skin. The Septa (connective tissue holding skin and fat together) become squashed and hardens causing a dimpling effect on the skin.
With the mechanical stimulation of Endermologie (grabbing and releasing of the skin, negative pressure), this allows cells to be oxygenated and the compressed fat cells to be broke up, the compressed fat cells and septa are then released and softened creating a smoother and less dimpled appearance to the skin.
What are the effects of Endermologie on the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and loss of firmness to the skin?
From our early 20s the collagen, hyaluronic acid and elastin production decreases, by the age of 30 this reduces dramatically, the effects are aging skin, lines, wrinkles, sagging and hollowing skin.
The process of Endermologie stimulates our bodies to reawaken the fibroblast (production of hyaluronic acid, elastin and collagen), this is a natural process. It stimulates blood flow to the cells and oxygenates the skin creating clarity, contour and smoothing lines and wrinkles.
How effective is endermologie®?
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. In just 3 treatments amazing results can start to be seen such as 67% reduction in cellulite.
Are there any side effects?
The only possible side effect of endermologie® is minor bruising for individuals with very sensitive skin. However, there are numerous positive side effects, such as relieving muscle soreness, fading of stretch marks and scar tissue, feeling rejuvenated, and relaxed.

Additional tips and advice on cellulite prevention?
Affecting 90% of women, cellulite can be present on even the leanest and most athletic body. It is the result of both fat storage in adipocytes (fat cells) and of water retention in the body. As the adipocytes grow, the connective tissue that contains them (septa) pulls on the skin surface and deforms it. At the same time, circulation is blocked, and toxins accumulate. Orange-peel skin and localized fat in certain areas of the body (saddlebags, buttocks or thighs) are immune to diets and exercise but theendermologie® technique has proven to be particularly effective.
Endermologie® is the leading mechanical skin stimulation that acts like a manual massage, reversing the effects of these processes. 100% natural, the treatment is extremely pleasant, smoothing cellulite by softening the tissue, draining excess fluids and reactivating healthy circulatory exchanges, enabling any woman to restore her skin to a smoother, healthier and more toned state.
How can LPG® endermologie’s results be accelerated?

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. For quicker results, sessions can be scheduled several times a week at the beginning of the program. The first month is important to trigger the process at the skin level. After that, one session per month is enough.
