Endermologie for Belly Fat After Pregnancy?

I had a baby 5 months ago and in my belly area near my C-section, I have lots of fat that I can't get rid of with sit-ups. Will Endermologie work for me?

A: Better option for non-invasive Body LipoSculpting

While nothing works better than tumescent liposuction, your best option for non-invasive body sculpting may be the new medical devices based on cavitational ultrasound technology, e.g. Liposonix, Ultraphase, Vaser Shape. You should not have high expectation from medical devices of prior generation, e.g. Endermologie, VelaSmooth, VelaShape, or Zerona, as the clinical benefit may be quite a bit more modest and often inconsistent.

Endermologie: Yes or No for Poor Skin Laxity

HELLO, I HAVE CELLULITE AND VERY POOR SKIN LAXITY. I'M CONSIDERING ENDERMOLOGIE HOWEVER WAS TOLD THAT THE ROLLERS DO STRECH SKIN AND IT SHOULD BE AVOIDED BY POOR SKIN LAXITY. DO YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE? THANKS.

A: Endermologie improves cellulite and skin tone

Endermologie does use a system of rollers combined with other modalities. While there is a stretching component to it to deal with shortened ligaments, that are partly the cause of cellulite, the treatment actually improves skin tone in general. The results of Endermologie are very much dependent on the abilties and experience of the therapist administering the procedure. Performing Endermologie well is more complicated than it might appear. At Rejuvenation Center we often see patients who have had courses of Endermologie elsewhere with little or no result. After only a few treatments with our Endermologie therapist (who has at least 15 years experience & has trained others) they see results.
