The basic principles of weight loss are known to all. This is a decrease in the number of calories consumed and an increase in physical activity. Unfortunately, not everyone is able to always adhere to such a regime for the sake of an ideal figure. One lacks willpower, while the other lacks time. Refuse the dream, despite the difficulties, is not worth it. Hardware slimming is the way out. This is an effective solution to the problem that modern cosmetology can offer.
What is hardware weight loss
Hardware correction of a figure is a complex of various procedures, the action of which is aimed at reducing body weight. This includes agents that can damage fat cells in a certain way. Thanks to this, you can get the same effect as after surgical liposuction.
In the event that you want to get rid of two or three extra pounds, it is quite possible that one visit to the salon is enough. If the excess weight is about 10 kg, most likely, you will need to undergo a full course of procedures. In some cases, it can take up to 12 weeks.
Regardless of weight, the first results can be seen after one session. Often the volume of the hips or waist decreases by one or two centimeters. The skin is smoothed, cellulite becomes less noticeable.
The most effective hardware weight loss are the following procedures:
- Vacuum massage.
- Endermological lipomassage.
- Electrolysis.
- Non-surgical liposuction.
- Lymphatic drainage.
- Mesotherapy
- Miostimulation.
- Pressotherapy
All these procedures have their advantages and disadvantages. Nevertheless, they really work. But this does not mean that during the course of procedures you can relax and abuse sweets and fast food. Food restrictions will still be present. Otherwise, the weight that can be lost due to the hardware procedures for losing weight will quickly return.
Electromyostimulation
Sport helps to model a beautiful body. It strengthens the muscles and tightens the skin. In the event that time for classes is sorely lacking, electromyostimulation will help.
The procedure for exposure to muscle current is an excellent solution for those who want to have a beautiful, athletic body without going to the gym. The first devices were created for bedridden patients and other patients who lack movement. Through special pads with electrodes that were attached to the body, a weak electric current was supplied to the muscles, stimulating their contraction. Subsequently, these devices were also used by cosmetologists.
During the procedure, the client may even take a nap on the couch. The apparatus will do everything for her. Not all cosmetologists admit that electromyostimulation can be attributed to hardware weight loss only with a big stretch. The procedure itself is not fat burning. But it stimulates the work of muscles. And also increases their volume. Muscle tissue is known to consume far more calories than fat. That is, by reducing portions, a woman will lose weight. And her figure will begin to take on sporting outlines.
After completing a course of 10 procedures, you will notice the following positive changes:
- volumes will decrease due to muscle tightening;
- problem areas will be worked out;
- contour improves.
The disadvantage of this technique is the fact that the amount of adipose tissue without dieting will not change. The procedure is contraindicated in thrombophlebitis, pregnancy and in the presence of a pacemaker.
Vacuum massage
In ancient China and Rome, banks were used to relieve pain and treat various diseases. But they began to be used for massage not so long ago, at the end of the 20th century. The first anti-cellulite procedures were carried out with ordinary glass or silicone jars.
Modern vacuum apparatus massage for weight loss is performed using special equipment. A pump and nozzle are used that glides over the skin. The device in contact with the body creates a vacuum. Under the influence of negative pressure, the fat cell ruptures. And the increased rush of blood and lymph eliminates decay products and accelerates metabolism. After a series of procedures, the skin is smoothed, the tubercles are eliminated and elasticity appears.
Vacuum apparatus massage for weight loss improves body contours, reduces the amount of subcutaneous fat, removes excess fluid, improves lymph and blood circulation. In addition, the procedure contributes to the resorption of scar formations. It increases contractility and muscle elasticity.
Vacuum massage, if it is not possible to visit the salon, can be independently performed at home. To do this, you need to purchase silicone cans at the pharmacy. The skin on the hips must be pre-treated with oil. Then use cans to massage.
Lymphatic drainage
Lymphatic drainage allows you to remove metabolic products and excess fluid from the intercellular space. The procedure relaxes muscles and dilates blood vessels. Its implementation requires a good knowledge of anatomy and physiology.
Lymphatic drainage is considered one of the most effective methods of hardware weight loss. Reviews of clients of salons indicate that the result is noticeable after the first session. The hips and sides of the abdomen are markedly reduced in volume due to the removal of excess fluid.
The procedure is performed using a special lymphatic drainage apparatus. The client does not feel any pain during the session. The nozzle of the device should slide in the direction of movement of the lymph, from the feet to the pubis. During the session, blood liquefies, and the lymph is distributed evenly.
Endermological lipomassage
Endermologic lipomassage activates lipolysis in fat cells. Laboratory data confirm that the procedure works even in the deeper layers of the skin. Changes occur at the intracellular level, so they persist for a long time.
During an endermologic lipomassage, the nozzle of the apparatus captures a fold of skin. Special rollers practically "grind" subcutaneous fat. The device is programmed for each client, his needs and level of sensitivity.
During the procedure, the patient must wear a special suit. It facilitates the sliding of the device on the skin. The average session time is 30 minutes. Procedures should not be performed more than twice a week. The entire course consists of eight sessions. But if necessary, their number can be increased to 18.
After completing a course of hardware cosmetology for weight loss, a woman will receive such results:
- getting rid of cellulite;
- relieving muscle spasm and increasing their tone;
- improved blood circulation;
- complete rehabilitation of the figure after childbirth;
- elimination of cicatricial changes;
- detoxification of the body;
- restoration of skin elasticity;
- buttock lifting;
- decrease in the volume of subcutaneous fat.
Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy for body shaping also refers to hardware weight loss. The procedure consists of two stages. At first, a special substance that destroys fat cells is injected into the skin using a syringe. In the second, lifting and drainage procedures are carried out, which should remove the decay products from the body.
The composition of the drugs usually includes:
- L-carnitine, which helps to reduce fat deposition;
- lidocaine, which makes it easier for patients to tolerate injections;
- extracts of various medicinal plants;
- benzopyrone, which has an anti-inflammatory effect;
- sodium deoxycholate, which can destroy the membrane of the fat cell;
- phosphatidylcholine - converts the contents of a fat cell into an emulsion;
- amino acids;
- vitamins.
With mesotherapy, you can get rid of fat on the knees, back of the hands, on the hips and sides, as well as on the bottom of the buttocks. All injections are performed by a cosmetologist using a special device - a meso-injector. The first results can be seen after four sessions. But the full course consists of 10 procedures.
Contraindications for mesotherapy are the same as for all hardware methods of losing weight:
- Oncology.
- Pregnancy.
- Inflammation in the treatment area.
- Epilepsy.
- Nervous Disorders.
- Skin damage.
- Blood coagulation disorders.
- Lactation.
- Hypertension.
- Diseases of the liver and kidneys.
Pressure therapy
Pressotherapy is another option for effective hardware weight loss. We can say that this is a massage that is performed not with human hands, but with the help of air.
For the procedure, the patient needs to wear a special suit. It connects to equipment that supplies air at different pressures. As a result of this effect, rhythmic muscle contraction occurs. This helps improve blood microcirculation and outflow of lymph. Thus, all toxins, excess fluid and waste are removed. Volumes are getting smaller.
Pressotherapy is an excellent remedy against cellulite, as it cleans the intercellular space of the skin. This helps to improve elasticity and restore its turgor. In addition, pressotherapy is a good prophylactic against varicose veins.
Non-surgical liposuction
The first liposuction was performed under general anesthesia and required quite impressive cuts on the skin. Often, operations ended in severe complications. Therefore, the procedure has been improved. Now patients can successfully fight overweight with non-surgical liposuction.
This hardware slimming procedure is performed under local anesthesia. A needle is inserted into the problem area, the diameter of which is only 1 mm. Through it pass laser beams that break down body fat. In one session, depending on the amount of excess weight, you can get rid of 12 cm of volume. In this case, no scars after the procedure will remain.
Electrolysis
Scientists have discovered that fat cells are sensitive to current. Thanks to this, such a procedure of hardware weight loss was created as electrolysis. Using special needle electrodes that penetrate the skin to a depth of 5 mm, current is applied to the adipose tissue. Its effect is weak, so the patient will not feel pain. The current breaks down fat, accelerates cellular metabolism and enhances blood flow.
The procedure is effective to combat local fatty deposits and cellulite. The course consists of 10 procedures, the interval between which should be seven days. The session lasts about an hour. Occasionally, adhesions, bruises, swelling, and redness may occur at the injection sites.

Reviews of losing weight
Many women managed to try the procedures of hardware massage for weight loss. Customer reviews of the salons confirm that all the techniques are effective. After completing the full course, the volume and cellulite are reduced, the body contours are improved and the skin is strengthened.
Most of the negative reviews are associated with the pain that women often experience during the procedures. In addition, the short-term effect is sometimes attributed to the disadvantages of hardware weight loss. In fact, no procedure can save women who abuse sweets and pastries from excess fat. To consolidate the result, you will have to adhere to the rules of a healthy diet.
