Endermologie

Quick Intro

VEI Clinic Apgujeong offers Endermologie®—a non-invasive mechanical tissue massage designed to gently mobilize skin and subcutaneous tissues. It’s a clothes-on session (thin treatment suit provided) with no anesthesia and no downtime, suitable for travelers and busy Seoul residents seeking a light, device-assisted body treatment near Apgujeong Station (Exit 5).

What Is Endermologie?

A motorized head uses rolling + suction to rhythmically lift and knead the skin. The aim is to temporarily improve skin appearance, support localized circulation/lymphatic flow, and promote a feeling of lightness in treated areas. Results vary by body type, lifestyle, and session count.

Who It May Be Right for (Examples)

• Seeking non-invasive body care with a relaxing, massage-like feel
• Looking to soften the look of skin dimpling (cellulite appearance)
• Wanting relief after travel or long days of sitting (heavy legs, puffiness)
• Preferring no needles, no downtime, and gradual changes

What It Can Help with (Appearance & Wellness)

• Temporary improvement in the look of skin texture/tone
• A less puffy, lighter feeling after flights or long days at a desk
• Comfortable add-on to fitness and healthy diet routines

What It Cannot Do (Manage Expectations)

• Replace surgery, liposuction, or doctor-supervised weight management
• Deliver permanent, single-session changes—a series is usually recommended
• Treat medical emergencies or acute pain—call 119 or go to an ER when appropriate

Areas & Typical Plan

• Common areas: thighs, hips, buttocks, abdomen, arms
• Session length: ~30–45 minutes
• Frequency: 1–2×/week for 6–12 sessions; optional monthly maintenance
• Clothing: thin body suit provided for comfort and hygiene

Visit Flow (What to Expect)

• Check-in & brief consult (goals, medical history, meds, allergies)
• Target mapping + baseline photos (if desired)
• Endermologie session (comfort-guided intensity, continuous monitoring)
• Post-care tips (hydration, light activity) + plan for next sessions

How to Prepare

• Hydrate well the day of treatment
• Avoid heavy creams or body oils beforehand
• Wear/bring comfortable underwear; treatment suit supplied
• Share any skin sensitivities, varicose vein history, or recent procedures

Aftercare Tips

• Drink water and walk lightly the same day
• Resume normal routine; most people return to activities immediately
• Maintain consistent sleep, nutrition, and movement for the best visible results

Safety Notes (Who Should Avoid or Discuss First)

• Pregnancy, active skin infection/open wounds in the area
• Uncontrolled varicose veins, bleeding disorders, or anticoagulants (discuss)

Pricing & Insurance Notes

• Fees depend on area(s) and package size (single session vs. multi-session package)
• Most visitors pay upfront; request an itemized English receipt for insurance
• Ask for a written quote with the recommended session count and schedule

What to Bring

• Passport/ID and a Korean phone number (if any)
• Medication/supplement list, allergies, and prior treatment notes
• Payment method (card/cash); insurer details if you plan to file a claim
