Cellulite Treatment

Vacuum cellulite treatment, is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure aimed at reducing the appearance of cellulite on the body. It involves the use of a device that creates a vacuum effect on the skin.

During the treatment, suction is applied to the targeted area, such as the thighs, buttocks, hips, or abdomen. The device creates a vacuum, gently lifting and stretching the skin. This action improves blood circulation, lymphatic drainage, and tissue elasticity in the treated area.

The increased blood circulation helps to break down fat deposits and improve the appearance of cellulite, while the improved lymphatic drainage can reduce fluid retention and swelling. The stretching and massaging action of the vacuum device can also stimulate collagen and elastin production, leading to firmer and more toned skin.

Vacuum cellulite treatments can be done as standalone treatments or as part of a comprehensive body contouring program.

• Is this treatment suitable for me?

  Vacuum cellulite treatment may be suitable for individuals who have noticeable cellulite and wish to improve its appearance. Generally, the treatment is considered for individuals who:

  Have mild to moderate cellulite: Vacuum cellulite treatment is typically most effective for individuals with mild to moderate cellulite.

  Are in good overall health: It is important to have good general health before undergoing any cosmetic treatment. Conditions such as uncontrolled diabetes, skin infections, blood clotting disorders, or certain medical conditions may be contraindications to vacuum cellulite treatment.

  Have realistic expectations: It is crucial to have realistic expectations regarding the outcomes of vacuum cellulite treatment. While the treatment may improve the appearance of cellulite, it may not completely eliminate it.

  It's important to note that individual suitability for vacuum cellulite treatment can vary, and a consultation with us is necessary to assess your specific circumstances and determine if this treatment is suitable for you. We can evaluate your cellulite severity and other factors to provide personalised recommendations.

• What areas can be treated?

  Vacuum cellulite treatment can be performed on various body areas where cellulite is commonly found. The most common areas treated with vacuum cellulite treatment include:

  Thighs: The front, back, inner and outer of the thighs are often targeted areas for vacuum cellulite treatment.

  Buttocks: Vacuum therapy can be applied to the buttocks to address cellulite in this area. It aims to improve the texture and appearance of the skin.

  Hips: The hip region, including the sides and love handle area, can be treated with vacuum cellulite treatment to reduce the appearance of cellulite and promote smoother skin.

  Abdomen: Vacuum therapy can be used on the abdominal area to help diminish the appearance of cellulite and improve skin tone.

  Arms: In some cases, vacuum cellulite treatment may be used on the upper arms to address cellulite in that area.

• How many sessions will I need?

  The number of sessions required for vacuum cellulite treatment can vary depending on factors, including the severity of cellulite and individual response to the treatment. Typically, a series of sessions is recommended to achieve optimal results.

  In general, a minimum of 6 to 8 sessions is often suggested, with treatments usually scheduled once or twice a week. Each session typically lasts around 30 minutes, but this can vary.

  It's important to note that visible improvements may not be immediately noticeable after the first few sessions. Results tend to accumulate over time as the treatment progresses, and individual responses can vary. It is common for maintenance sessions to be recommended after the initial treatment series to help sustain the results achieved.

  During a consultation, we will assess your specific needs and goals and provide personalised recommendations regarding the number of sessions needed. We can also monitor your progress throughout the treatment series and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan based on your individual response.

• Can I treat multiple areas at once?

  Yes, it is possible to treat multiple areas of the body with vacuum cellulite treatment in one session.

  Treating multiple areas in one session can be beneficial as it saves time and allows for a comprehensive approach to addressing cellulite concerns.

  We will assess your needs and determine the feasibility of treating multiple areas in one session based on factors such as the severity of cellulite and your individual circumstances.

  During a consultation, discuss your desired treatment areas and goals with us. We will provide recommendations based on your individual circumstances and ensure that the treatment plan aligns with your expectations and comfort levels.

• What does the treatment feel like?

  The sensation experienced during vacuum cellulite treatment can vary from person to person. However, here are some common experiences reported by individuals undergoing this treatment:

  Suction and pulling sensation: The vacuum effect created by the device can create a pulling or suction sensation on the skin. This is typically described as a mild to moderate pulling or tugging sensation.

  Massage-like feeling: As the device is moved across the treated area, it often incorporates a massaging motion. This can feel similar to a deep tissue massage or a rolling sensation on the skin.

  Warmth: Some individuals may experience a mild warmth in the treated area due to increased blood circulation and the mechanical action of the treatment. This is generally considered a normal response and should not cause discomfort.

  Mild discomfort or tenderness: In certain cases, individuals may experience mild discomfort or tenderness during or after the treatment, particularly if the suction intensity is high. This discomfort is usually temporary and subsides quickly.

  It's important to communicate your comfort level and any sensations you experience during the treatment to us so that can adjust the settings or technique as needed to ensure your comfort and safety.

  Overall, vacuum cellulite treatment is generally well-tolerated, and many individuals find the sensation to be pleasant or tolerable. However, individual experiences can vary, so it's always a good idea to consult with us to discuss your specific concerns and expectations regarding the treatment.

• What would prevent me from having this treatment?

  There are some factors that may prevent someone from being able to have vacuum cellulite treatment. These factors can vary depending on individual health conditions, contraindications, and specific circumstances. Some potential reasons that may prevent someone from undergoing this treatment include:

  Pregnancy: Vacuum cellulite treatment is generally not recommended during pregnancy due to the potential risks and unknown effects on the developing fetus. It is advisable to postpone the treatment until after pregnancy and consult with a healthcare professional for guidance.

  Skin infections or conditions: If you have an active skin infection, such as a bacterial or viral infection, or if you have an open wound or severe dermatological conditions in the treatment area, vacuum cellulite treatment may be contraindicated. It is important to allow the skin to heal before considering this treatment.

  Blood clotting disorders: Individuals with blood clotting disorders, such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or a history of clotting disorders, may be at an increased risk of complications during the treatment. Vacuum therapy involves suction and mechanical manipulation of the skin, which could potentially dislodge a clot or cause other adverse effects. It is advised to consult with a healthcare professional and disclose any relevant medical history before undergoing this treatment.

  Certain medical conditions: Individuals with certain medical conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes, circulatory disorders, compromised immune systems, or cancer, may need to avoid vacuum cellulite treatment or require special considerations. These conditions can affect the healing process or increase the risk of complications.

  Medications: Some medications, such as blood thinners or anticoagulants, may increase the risk of bleeding or bruising during the treatment. It is important to disclose all medications you are taking with us to ensure that there are no contraindications.

  Unrealistic expectations: If a person has unrealistic expectations or misunderstands the potential outcomes of vacuum cellulite treatment, it may be advisable to have a thorough consultation with us to discuss the expected results and determine if this treatment aligns with your goals.

• What is the before and after care?

  Before undergoing vacuum cellulite treatment, it is important to follow certain before-care guidelines to ensure optimal results and minimise any potential risks.

  Hydration: Stay adequately hydrated before the treatment. Drinking enough water helps keep your skin and tissues hydrated, promoting better treatment outcomes.

  Avoid sun exposure and tanning: Avoid excessive sun exposure and tanning beds in the days leading up to the treatment. Sunburned or overly tanned skin can be more sensitive and may increase the risk of adverse reactions during the procedure.

  Avoid applying creams or oils: Refrain from applying creams, lotions, oils, or any other substances to the treatment areas on the day of the procedure. These products can interfere with the suction or affect the efficacy of the treatment.

  Shave or trim hair: If you have hair in the treatment area, it may be necessary to shave or trim it before the session. This allows for better contact between the device and the skin, enhancing the effectiveness of the treatment.

  Avoid blood-thinning medications: If you are taking medications that thin the blood or certain supplements, consult with your healthcare provider about temporarily discontinuing or adjusting the dosage prior to the treatment. This can help minimise the risk of excessive bruising or bleeding.

  Wear comfortable clothing: Choose loose and comfortable clothing to wear to the treatment session. This will make it easier to access and treat the targeted areas.

  After undergoing vacuum cellulite treatment, it is important to follow proper after-care instructions to optimise the results and promote healing. Here are some general guidelines:

  Avoid excessive heat and sun exposure: After the treatment, it is advisable to avoid prolonged sun exposure, hot showers, saunas, hot tubs, or activities that generate excessive heat. This can help prevent skin irritation, redness, or potential complications.

  Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and support the body's natural healing processes.

  Avoid strenuous exercise or activities: It is typically recommended to avoid strenuous physical activity or exercise for the first 24 to 48 hours following the treatment. This allows the body to recover and reduces the risk of bruising or other complications.

  Wear loose and comfortable clothing: Opt for loose-fitting clothing in the treated areas to avoid unnecessary friction or pressure on the skin.
