What is an Endermologie treatment, and how does it feel?
Kay works with the LPG Endermologie Cellu M6 Alliance. The treatment head draws a fold of skin in with light suction, and motorized rollers move it along. Kay moves the head over one area at a time. She sets the suction, the settings and the protocol for each client, by age, area treated and the condition of the skin.
The American Academy of Dermatology describes it as a deep massage while a vacuum-like tool lifts the skin. Nothing pierces the skin. Kay says clients usually feel no pain and see no redness or bruising afterward. Many need to urinate more often later that day, and most leave feeling lighter and more relaxed.
It is also the service clients book most at the studio, Kay says.
Which body areas does Kay treat?
- Abdomen, above and below the navel.
- Thighs, front, back, inner and outer.
- Hips, the outer curve from waist to thigh.
- Buttocks, which can share a session with the thighs.
Kay plans the areas with you at the first visit, inside the 60 minutes.
What do you wear?
Every session is done over Endermowear, a fitted white body suit made for LPG treatments. It lets the rollers glide and keeps you covered. Kay sells it at cost, $45. The suit is yours to keep, and you bring it to each session. It is sold only through LPG providers. The rule is firm: no suit, no treatment.
How do you prepare, and what about after?
- Before: start hydrating early, with at least 2 liters of water within 3 days of your visit.
- On the day: wear loose clothes that are easy to take off and put back on, and skip heavy meals.
- After: keep drinking water, avoid a heavy meal, and have no alcohol for 24 hours.

How does a series work?
- 1First visit, $160Kay asks about your health, looks at the areas that bother you, and does your first session the same day, then suggests a plan.
- 2The seriesEndermologie works over a run of sessions, not in one visit, and Kay sets a customized series with you at the first visit. For scale: LPG bases its cellulite claim on 12 sessions, and the 2009 and 2013 studies used 15, at two a week.
- 3After the seriesYour goal sets the next step, Kay says. For the look of cellulite she may suggest more sessions. For relaxation and wellness, once a month. As post-workout recovery, whenever you need it. The change in appearance is temporary: the AAD notes that cellulite tends to return about a month after treatment stops, and LPG's own model is one session a month once the starting phase is done.
What do the FDA and the research say?
In January 2000, the FDA cleared LPG's massager models, including the Cellu M6, under 510(k) K990445. One listed use is "temporarily reduces the appearance of cellulite." The key word is temporarily. [TO CONFIRM: 510(k) number that covers the Cellu M6 Alliance model, LPG America or Kay]
The study most often cited is small. In 2009, A.T. Güleç followed 33 women through 15 LPG sessions in the International Journal of Dermatology. Average cellulite grades went down, yet only 5 of the 33 women showed a visible improvement. The author called the effect on cellulite mild. Results vary, and Kay will tell you plainly what to expect for your body.

Who it may suit
Women who want the look of their thighs, hips or stomach to be smoother, without needles or surgery, and who can commit to a series. [TO CONFIRM: candidate profile, Kay]

Questions about Endermologie
Does Endermologie really work?
It can soften the look of cellulite for a while. LPG's FDA-cleared claim is a temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite, and in the 2009 study 5 of 33 women showed a visible change. It does not remove fat or cellulite for good. For the longer answer, read Does Endermologie work for cellulite?
How much does LPG Endermologie cost?
At Karisma Esthetics, $160 for the first visit with the consultation, $150 for each session after that, and $45 once for the Endermowear suit. Packages run from 3 sessions for $450 to 12 for $1,800. The cost guide walks through the math.
How long do Endermologie results last?
Not long without upkeep. The FDA wording says temporarily, the AAD notes cellulite tends to return within about a month of stopping, and LPG suggests one session a month to keep the effect. The results guide has the detail.
Is Endermologie the same as lymphatic drainage?
No. Manual lymphatic drainage is a light massage done by hand. Endermologie is a device session with rollers and suction, done over a body suit. Karisma does not offer manual lymphatic drainage.
Can I do Endermologie on my face?
LPG also makes a face treatment, booked as its own session. See Endermologie Face, $120.
