Madonna’s no-cellulite secret
I will neither confirm nor categorically deny that I have any orange peel. Let’s not dwell on my thighs in particular. But just say, hypothetically obviously, that I did have unloved lumpy bits like pretty much everyone with XX chromosomes. Then I would be fascinated to find that the anti-cellulite cheatment Madonna has been keeping on the quiet is available all over Australia. And let’s just say you have some cellulite too – you’d be intrigued also. So…
Let’s be real. One billion gym hours and habitual white bread hatred obviously has advantages. But the inside word is Acoustic Wave Therapy (AWT) is why Madonna has that freakishly fine-tuned behind. Busted, your Madgesty…
How it works: Non-surgically and needle-free. A high-frequency applicator passes over dimpled zones, emitting high-energy acoustic waves that “shock” fat pockets into shifting.
The idea? By firing up circulation and lymphatic flow while also kickstarting new collagen and elastin, the waves both drain away cellulite lumps and ‘flatten’ and firm skin. Double whammy.
Targets: Backsides, tums, thighs and bingo wings.
How fast? A smoother, slimmer payoff after six 20-minute sessions (over three weeks), yet as collagen and elastin continues to crank up, better results show around three months after treatment, continuing for up to 12 months.
Feels like: A little jackhammer. It’s not what you’d call wincingly painful, but any ouch-factor fades after the first few minutes.
Costs: $70 per treatment area (ie. back of legs or backside) per session.
Get it: Around Australia. Check www.acousticwave.com.au or1300 304 734.
