Hypoxi

How it works: the lower half of your body – the thighs, buttocks and hips – are sealed in a airtight capsule and your feet a placed on a pedalling machine. For about 30 to 40 minutes, you pedal under different pressure conditions. The idea is that the blood flow is boosted to the lower body and your metabolism is increased in order to remove fat.

Cost: a session will cost $58 and 12 sessions are usually recommended for most people.

Mesoslim

How it works: a formula containing caffeine, seaweed, ivy and buckwheat is smoothed over the cellulite affected area. An electro-therapy system is applied to the formula to help the ingredients to soak deeply into the skin.

Between treatments, a waist belt is worn for six hours a day to help strengthen the abdominal muscles.

Cost: a session is priced at $175 and you we need about six weeks of treatment.
