LPG endermologie® treatments: technology for your well-being
A gentle, natural and effective method
At Centre Philae, we're committed to offering you treatments that are innovative, body-friendly and deeply effective. That's why we've chosen LPG endermologie® technologytechnology, a patented method that acts deep down on skin tissue to naturally reactivate your skin's functions.
Thanks to gentle yet powerful mechanical micro-pulsations, LPG treatments stimulate skin cells (fibroblasts) and fat cells (adipocytes), helping to firm tissues, boost circulation and reshape the silhouette. Non-invasive and painless, these treatments are suitable for both aesthetic purposes (cellulite, sagging skin, wrinkles) and therapeutic needs (drainage, scars, heavy legs...).
By working in synergy with the body's natural functions, LPG delivers visible, long-lasting results and a real sense of well-being. Our specialized therapists tailor each session to your needs for a targeted, personalized and effective treatment.
LPG and cellulite: smoothing, firming, reshaping
LPG technology targets stubborn fat, even when dieting or exercising. It stimulates the activity of adipocytes (fat cells) and improves skin texture. The result: a firmer figure, smoother skin and a visible reduction in cellulite.
LPG and drainage: lightness and detox
Thanks to precise mechanical movements, LPG treatment activates lymphatic and venous circulation. It helps eliminate toxins, reduce swelling and relieve the sensation of heavy legs. Ideal for water retention, circulatory problems or after pregnancy.
LPG anti-aging: gentle skin regeneration
LPG facial treatments stimulate the natural production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. They plump the skin, reduce wrinkles and restore radiance to the complexion. A non-invasive way to age gracefully, naturally.
