Breakthrough Anti-Cellulite Treatment Gets Women Back in Their Skinny Jeans

MERRIMACK, N.H., Dec. 29, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- A premier aesthetics company focused on body shaping, Eleme Medical Inc., announced today that Ellen Frankel, MD, of Dermatology Physicians and Rejuvaderm Medical Spa is the first physician in Rhode Island to offer the SmoothShapes® laser to fight the battle of cellulite.

SmoothShapes effectively treats cellulite and is a non-invasive method for producing long lasting results. The SmoothShapes device uses a proprietary technology called Photomology® which is a unique mechanism of action that combines dynamic laser and light energy with mechanical manipulation (massage and vacuum).  This process impacts the tissue responsible for the appearance of cellulite—enlarged fat cells and inflexible collagen. SmoothShapes stimulates restoration of healthy cell activity by focusing on the physical manifestations of cellulite and its underlying causes.

Dr. Frankel has been on the forefront of non-surgical skin rejuvenation and laser treatments. As a leader in aesthetic and general dermatology, she recognizes the current request for non-invasive body treatments, especially cellulite improvement.

"Demand for non-invasive body shaping continues to grow," said Dr. Frankel. "After evaluating the technology and the clinical results, SmoothShapes is more advanced than other cellulite technologies. SmoothShapes has impressive scientific validation of its efficacy and I'm offering the treatments to patients because it creates smoother and tighter skin without downtime, discomfort or side effects. Additionally, the laser powered technology provides long lasting cellulite reduction, without the need for monthly maintenance."

"We are honored to have such a distinguished physician as Dr. Frankel to be our first SmoothShapes provider in Rhode Island," said Nancy M. Briefs, Eleme Medical President and CEO. "At Eleme Medical we have taken a much disciplined approach to the science of body shaping. We were the first aesthetic company to understand that our partners wanted more clinical proof than simple before and after photos. Our luminaries completed the first study that validated cellulite improvement via MRI and the first that used Ultrasound to show the changes under the skin as a result of SmoothShapes treatments. Another researcher was the first to validate volume change in cellulite after SmoothShapes treatment via 3D photography. Clinical studies have also showed the benefits of adding SmoothShapes to liposuction protocols. None of our body shaping competitors has this amount of clinical proof nor have they worked with such a distinguished list of the globe's top physicians."
