- Wrap with bandages. The elastic bandages are already soaked in an active ingredient solution, simply wrap them around critical areas such as the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, or arms. The bandages should be tight but not too much to avoid discomfort during the treatment.
- Rest and relax. Once the bandages are applied, wear the paper pants and relax for at least 30 minutes while the active ingredients work on your skin. Are you feeling hot? Don’t worry, the gel fat bandages with warming effect may cause a slight burning sensation and redness due to the active ingredients that act as vasodilators!
- Remove the bandages. At the end of the treatment, remove the bandages and massage the skin to help absorb any remaining product.
For visible results and lasting well-being, use them at least once a week in combination with thermal effect cellulite cream or bifasic spray for fat and cellulite!
