What it is
The 3Max Plus is a platform combining different technologies for skin tightening, the appearance of cellulite and localised fat on the body and face.
The treatment is non-invasive and painless, with a sensation of warmth and massage. It is performed as a course, since the result relies on repetition.
It is complementary: it works best in people with a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle, and does not replace weight loss or surgery.

Frequently asked questions
Will I lose weight?
No. The treatment improves tightening and the appearance of the area; it is not a weight-loss method.
Does it hurt?
No. You feel warmth and massage. If the sensation becomes strong, the setting is reduced.
How many sessions are needed?
Usually 6–10, once or twice a week, followed by maintenance.
Is there downtime?
None. You can return to your activities immediately.
Does cellulite go away?
Cellulite does not disappear. Its appearance improves, especially when combined with a stable weight, movement and hydration.
Indications, the number of sessions and the protocol are determined individually, after medical assessment. Results vary from person to person.
