A NEW MACHINE, THE FIRST IN CANADA, HELPS REDUCE THE APPEARANCE OF CELLULITE WHILE ENHANCING SKIN TONE AND BODY SHAPE

What is cellulite ?

Cellulite is a form of irregular skin, easily identified by its bumpy "orange peel" texture. Underlying areas of enlarged fat pockets, intersected by vertical fibers that pull or depress the skin, cause its uneven, pitted appearance.

Factors such as age, hormonal imbalances, pregnancy, menopause, poor eating and poor exercise habits can hasten the appearance of cellulite, especially along the hips, thighs and buttocks.

Traditional means of combating cellulite have included weight management, diet and exercise, but have had mixed results. If, like many people, you have a predisposition to cellulite, your own experience may prove that eating right and exercising just aren’t enough.

Introducing "The Silhouette"

A new technology Newly available for the first time in Canada, "The Silhouette" machine was designed by LUXAR, a company world-renowned for its advances in laser technology.

A precisely controlled vacuum aspiration and an ergonomic headpiece stretch, and ultimately smooth, the fat pockets and fibers underneath the skin.

"The Silhouette" treatments have no complications, no undesirable side effects; in fact, they tend to promote lymphatic drainage and blood circulation.

All treatments are performed under medical supervision by one of Dr. Fanous’ trained assistants. Comfortable, affordable treatments

"The Silhouette" treatments feel good

Invigorating yet relaxing, like a deep massage. And, like massage, each session is an opportunity to enhance your well being by relieving your body of stress and tension. "The Silhouette" advanced computer technology customizes each treatment to suit your personal comfort level while delivering maximum effectiveness.

Most people report noticeable improvement within the first month, and see full effects after eight weeks. A typical course of treatment consists of one to two 40 minute sessions per week, over a period of 2 to 4 months.

"The Silhouette" and liposuction

"The Silhouette" treatments may be used after liposuction to decrease post-operative swelling and to speed up the healing process. In some cases, "The Silhouette" treatments may offer an alternative solution for patients considered as poor candidates for liposuction or who, for whatever reason, are reluctant to undergo surgery.

"The Silhouette", good food and gentle exercise

A sensible program While undergoing treatments, you can eat all the foods you love : fish, poultry, lean meats, cheese, yogurt, grains, fresh fruits and vegetables. As with any sensible diet, try to avoid fried foods, sugar, alcohol or caffeine. Gentle exercise such as walking, cycling or swimming-three times a week is highly recommended.

Maintain your gains for years

Once your initial course of treatment is completed, you can arrange to have a monthly maintenance session to prolong the texture and beauty of you skin.
