Scar therapy utilizing endermologic technology (Icoone® or classic Endermologie LPG®) is a modern, fully non-invasive method to improve skin quality, utilizing precise subpressure massage and cellular microstimulation. The treatment works on multiple levels of the skin and subcutaneous tissue - not only improving its appearance but also stimulating natural regenerative processes, aiding in scar remodeling and integration with surrounding skin.
This method is applicable for both fresh and older scars, whether they are thickened, hardened, fibrotic, or adherent - including after cesarean section, surgical procedures, injuries, or burns.
Mechanism of Action
Endermologic tissue stimulation triggers a series of beneficial biological processes:
- Mechanical loosening of scar tissue - subpressure massage acts on fibrotic structures, reducing stiffness and enhancing skin elasticity
- Stimulation of fibroblasts for collagen and elastin production - activating deep skin regeneration
- Improved microcirculation and lymphatic drainage - increased blood and lymph flow supports tissue oxygenation, nutrition, and cleansing
- Anti-inflammatory and detoxifying effects - the treatment reduces swelling, supports healing, and reduces the risk of abnormal scarring
- Evening out skin structure and complexion - by unifying cellular metabolism and stimulating intercellular exchange
When is it Worth Using?
Endermologic therapy is an effective method when your skin needs support in regeneration, but you do not want or cannot undergo invasive techniques.
It is worth considering the treatment when:
- You have thickened, hard, immobile scars - and want to soften and make them more elastic
- The scar limits skin mobility or causes discomfort upon touch
- You are dealing with scars from cesarean section, surgeries, or injuries
- You want to support the healing of fresh scars and prevent fibrosis (after 6-8 weeks of wound closure)
- Your skin poorly tolerates ablative treatments (laser, RF microneedling, peels)
- You seek gentle regenerative therapy between PRP sessions, microneedling, or lasers
- You need a procedure without downtime that can be performed regularly
It is a safe and comfortable therapy that allows for effective action - without disrupting the skin's integrity.
Effects of the Treatment
The treatment brings a range of visible and profound effects - especially with regular use:
Aesthetic effects:
- Flattening and loosening of scars
- Reduced stiffness and thickening within the scar area
- Evening out skin texture and tone
- Increased skin hydration and smoothness
- Reduction of discoloration and irregularities in the scar area
Biological and functional effects:
- Activation of fibroblasts and increased collagen synthesis
- Improved skin elasticity and firmness
- Stimulation of blood and lymph circulation - accelerated healing and regeneration
- Reduction of swelling and inflammatory conditions
- Loosening of adhesions and restoration of tissue mobility
The effects appear gradually but are lasting and profound. The therapy works not only on the surface - it rebuilds the skin from within.
Which Variant to Choose?
- Icoone® - recommended for precision and delicacy in therapy of specific areas, including the face, neck, and postsurgical scars (e.g., after cesarean section). It utilizes micro-opening heads for more intensive yet safe action.
- Endermologie LPG® - effective for larger and harder scars, especially on thighs, abdomen, back. It works well for extensive areas and fibrotic conditions.
The choice of method depends on scar location, structure, and expected results - individually determined during consultation.
Combining with Other Treatments - and When?
Endermologic therapy complements well with other scar treatment methods:
- With laser therapy (e.g., CO₂, Er:YAG) - perform endermology 3-4 weeks after laser treatment to accelerate healing and improve tissue elasticity
- With microneedling (Dermapen) - between sessions or 2 weeks after, to facilitate scar integration and enhance metabolism
- With PRP, CGF, plasma, or exosomes - alternately, to deepen regeneration and anti-inflammatory effects
- With INDIBA® or BeautyTek - concurrently or alternately, for synergy in bioelectric stimulation and mechanical remodeling
- With manual massage / scar physiotherapy - as a complement to therapy conducted by a physiotherapist (e.g., scar after CC)
Endermologic treatment prepares the skin well for invasive therapies or supports their effects during the regeneration phase.
If you seek an effective yet gentle method for scar reduction - endermologic therapy is the solution for you. It not only improves skin appearance but primarily supports its function, elasticity, and regeneration. It is a modern, medically justified method that is worth incorporating into comprehensive scar therapy.
