About Cellulite Treatment

Cellulite is nothing more than normal fat, which is located beneath the skin. The fat appears bumpy because it pushes against the connective tissue that causes the skin above it to pucker. Cellulite does not cause any discomfort or harm to the body, but many people undergo cellulite treatment to improve the appearance of the area that has cellulite. Cellulite can occur in most places of the body like the arm, legs, buttock and more.

Cellulite does not occur because of being overweight. Cellulite occurs more in women than in men. Other reasons that cause cellulite are as listed

  • Poor diet
  • Slow metabolism
  • Lack of physical activity
  • Hormone changes
  • Dehydration
  • Total body fat
  • Thickness and the color of the skin

For the treatment of cellulite there are various types of treatments like creams and liposuction. There is no evidence to show that creams completely remove cellulite. Liposuction treatment for cellulite removes the fat inside the skin but does not remove cellulite. Massage and spa treatments are also performed for cellulite treatment but again cellulite is not removed. The best way to treat cellulite is with laser treatment. A laser device is used to treat cellulite, which is able to melt the fat and break up the fibrous bands under the skin.

Cellulite Treatment Procedure

CelluSmooth Laser Treatment – cellusmooth laser treatment is an invasive and completely safe procedure. Cellusmooth uses a 1319 nm wavelength laser to treat the fibrous bands that are underneath the upper layer of the skin.  The power of the laser can be adjusted depending on the extent of treatment and patient. The procedure takes around 30 minutes to perform; the duration can expand depending on the extent of treatment. Patients are able to see results straight after the treatment.

CelluLaze Treatment – cellulaze treatment requires a single session. The operator will mark the areas of cellulite, and local anesthesia or numbing solution will be applied to reduce any discomfort. Tiny incisions will be made and the cellulaze laser fiber will be threaded through a Cannula and then the doctor will insert it through the incision site to the skin. The laser fiber will level out pumps of fat, treat dimples and fibrous bands that pull the skin and stimulate collagen production for a smoother look. Then the liquidified fat will be gently pressed out. The process will take from an hour to 2 hours to perform.
