The Roller Cell 2 (or just Roller Cell) by Verseo is a handheld anti-cellulite massaging device designed to be used for at-home treatment of cellulite.
The unit has multiple functions including air suction, heating, vibration massage and motorized rollers, all of which help to reduce the appearance of cellulite. A nice side effect is that it also improves local blood flow to the area, which benefits overall skin tone and appearance as well.
The Good:
The Bad:
The Roller Cell is a great product for any woman who struggles with cellulite, and is willing to invest some time at home towards treating it.
The Verseo anti cellulite Roller Cell massage system includes the following:
The instruction manual recommends using the machine for 15 minutes per leg, twice a day, using the interchangeable rollers as specified for optimal results.
To use the machine, you need to apply some Roller Cell gel to the area you wish to treat, then maneuver the massage unit over your skin in single strokes (applying some pressure). Multi-function settings such as heat, vibration and suction are all adjustable. You can use any cream or lotion with the massager, but the Roller Cell gel provided contains ingredients specifically aimed at helping to reduce cellulite as well.
Using the Verseo Roller Cell can get a bit tiring and be a little awkward, especially when trying to use it on yourself to treat the back of your legs and butt. Some users also have a little difficulty with gripping the machine, saying their hands slip out when using it.
For best results you need to apply a slight pressure on the massager against your body while pushing the massager in long strokes along the area to be treated; so it does require some work to use.
The multiple functions of the unit allow it to be used in multiple ways. The suction on the unit is surprisingly strong – it creates a good suction even on the low setting, and can be adjusted up in strength to suit the user. Heat can also be adjusted to suit the user.
The machine does create some noise when used due to the air suction setting, probably comparable to an electric razor or epilator in terms of loudness. However, the main benefit of this massager is that it can be used at home as often as you like.
The Verseo anti cellulite Roller Cell massage system fights cellulite in a multitude of ways. The technology behind the Roller Cell is similar to Endermologie, which is an anti-cellulite treatment offered by many beauty salons. Many women have reported that using the Roller Cell also feels the same as professional Endermologie treatments.
Both Endermologie and the Verseo Roller Cell work to improve the appearance of cellulite by air suction and rollers – this particular kind of tissue stimulation has been proven in numerous scientific studies to be effective at reducing the appearance and severity of cellulite.
In summary, yes, the Roller Cell does actually work, and it’s method of action has been proven in clinical studies. Of course, results will depend on how often and consistently you use it – but your cellulite is now back in your control with this device.
Verseo offer great customer support on their products. The Roller Cell comes with a 1 year manufacturer’s guarantee.
I found several reports of faulty units and sub-standard construction of the Roller Cell massager from some customers, but other users report no problems at all with their devices, so it does seem like the unit may be of average quality.
Either way, Verseo appear to have a good reputation for customer and product support so if a faulty product were received, it is nice to know that Verseo do actually honor their 1 year warranty on the product.
Pricing is where the Verseo Roller Cell really shines. This unit can be used over and over again, and only costs a fraction of the price of a professional anti-cellulite treatment from a beauty salon.
A single Endermologie treatment at a salon might cost around $80-$100 and take between 30 – 60 minutes. These are often sold in multiple sessions, so with most salons recommending at least 10-12 sessions, the total cost can quickly get to the $1,000 mark or more.
The Verseo Roller Cell is a very affordable alternative, that costs less than a single professional anti-cellulite treatment. And because you are in control of the unit, you can spend the extra time to focus on any problem areas.
I think the Roller Cell is a great little unit that really can make a difference to your cellulite and overall skin appearance. The mechanism of action is scientifically sound, and has been proven to reduce the appearance of cellulite.
For less than the cost of a single professional anti-cellulite treatment, you get a very versatile massage unit and can perform multiple treatments in the privacy of your own home. Although the unit may be of questionable quality, the manufacturer does offer a 1 year warranty if any problems are encountered.
I would recommend this unit if you are willing to invest the time and effort required to use the machine, as consistency is what is required in order to see results.
