What is LPG endermology?
LPG endermology is a mechanical connective tissue massage that activates and strengthens the skin from within. The treatment stimulates blood circulation and lymph drainage using rolling and suction movements. As a result, the skin becomes firmer, smoother and cellulite is visibly reduced. LPG endermology is suitable for improving body contours and loosening adherent connective tissue. It is also used to support skin repair after cosmetic surgery or scarring. The result is tighter, smoother skin with more comfort and suppleness.

The LPG treatment
During an LPG treatment, the skin is mechanically massaged with a rolling and suction motion. This stimulates blood flow, activates lymphatic drainage and promotes the production of collagen and elastin. The skin becomes visibly firmer, smoother and cellulite is reduced. During the treatment you wear a special bodysuit, which facilitates the treatment. A session lasts on average 30 to 45 minutes and requires no recovery time. The first improvements are often noticeable after just a few treatments.
Benefits of an LPG treatment
- Firms the skin and improves elasticity
- Visibly reduces cellulite
- Stimulates the natural production of collagen and elastin
- Activates lymphatic drainage and promotes waste removal
- Improves circulation of skin and connective tissue
- Supports recovery after cosmetic surgery or injuries
How does LPG endermology work?
LPG endermology uses a mechanical rolling and vacuum system that deeply stimulates the skin. The treatment head picks up the skin and rolls off the connective tissue in a controlled manner. This improves blood flow and activates lymphatic drainage. At the same time, the treatment stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. This results in a firmer skin structure, reduced cellulite and a smoother skin surface. The technique is 100% natural, painless and without recovery time.

FAQ
What is an LPG endermology treatment and how does it work?
LPG endermology is a mechanical connective tissue massage performed with a special device. The treatment head makes rolling and suction movements across the skin, stimulating the underlying tissue. This improves blood flow, promotes the removal of waste products and stimulates the natural production of collagen and elastin. The result is firmer, smoother skin and a visible reduction in cellulite.
How many LPG treatments do I need for visible results?
Most clients see initial improvement after three to five treatments. A course of eight to 10 sessions is usually required for visible and long-lasting results. The exact duration depends on your skin condition, treatment area and desired effect. To maintain results, a maintenance treatment every three to four weeks thereafter is advised.
Is an LPG endermology treatment painful or uncomfortable?
The treatment is usually considered comfortable. You will feel a firm, rolling massage that is not painful. The intensity of the device is adjusted to your skin type and personal sensitivity. Many clients even find the treatment relaxing.
What are the possible side effects of LPG treatment?
LPG endermology is a safe treatment with minimal side effects. In some cases, temporary redness, mild sensitivity or bruising may occur. This usually disappears within one to two days. Serious complications are very rare and are almost never reported when the treatment is performed correctly.
