Hot and cold wraps

Wrap for weight loss at home – the most effective solution for the independent fight against cellulite. Wraps relate to cosmetic procedures in which an active mixture is applied to various parts of the body, penetrating the skin and accelerating metabolic processes.

Weight loss treatments can be hot and cold. They differ among themselves by the temperature of the applied mixture.
