Unlike the traditional Brazilian butt lift, vacuum therapy promises to help tone and tighten your rear without the use of incisions and fat grafting.
What is vacuum therapy?
Vacuum therapy is a noninvasive massaging technique that helps to lift your skin via a mechanical device equipped with suction cups.
While it originally entered the market during the 1970s as a way to help treat burn scars, this treatment has evolved into a nonsurgical butt lift method. Some studies have also looked into the therapy as a way to close up skin ulcers.
Vacuum therapy is also known as vacuotherapy and depressomassage. Aside from purportedly offering similar effects to those of a surgical butt lift, the procedure is also sometimes used to mimic a traditional breast lift.
Certain forms of vacuum therapy are also used for the treatment of cellulite.
Does vacuum therapy work to lift and sculpt the buttocks?
At its core, vacuum therapy offers deep massaging effects. The procedure may work for buttock toning by:
- decreasing muscle tension
- increasing lymphatic flow to remove toxins and water retention
- exfoliating the skin, thereby making it smoother and more toned in appearance
- stimulating the middle layers of skin for increased toning effects
- decreasing the appearance of cellulite
When performed for several sessions on a weekly basis, you may notice that your skin is tighter and more toned. This can provide the appearance of a butt lift.
Results aren’t permanent
Once you stop going for vacuum therapy treatments, your skin will likely go back to the way it was before. If you’re looking for more permanent results, you may consider talking to your doctor about surgery instead.
Is vacuum therapy safe?
Vacuum therapy is a noninvasive procedure, so you can expect few to no side effects. However, you may feel slight pain and tightness after the procedure.
Mild swelling can also occur.
