An electrically-powered assembly of noninvasive devices intended primarily for the temporarily reduction in the appearance of cellulite through the application of suction forces to the skin surface. It includes a motorized vacuum pump, a control unit, and one or more hand-held skin-surface applicators (cups). The system may in addition be used to improve skin appearance by smoothing wrinkles, tightening muscle/connective tissue, and/or improving lymphatic drainage; it may also be used as a massager to treat minor muscle pain. It is intended to be operated by a trained professional.
