Cellulite

Cellulite manifests as skin dimpling, due to fat herniation. Thighs and buttocks are the worst affected areas.

It’s very common in women, post puberty. It affects up to 90% of women.

Cellulite has multifactorial etiology; contributing factors are genetic, hormones, changes in metabolism, pregnancy, obesity, poor diet, poor exercise.

Lifestyle modifications such as a change in diet, weight loss and increase in exercise can cause a significant reduction in cellulite appearance.

There are multiple treatments to improve the appearance of cellulite such as:

Mesotherapy, it consists of multiple microinjections of a cocktail containing Vitamins, Amino Acids, Hyaluronic acid, Enzymes, Hormones and plant extracts, in the mesoderm, the mid layer of the skin. All these substances stimulate the fibroblasts production of Collagen, the substance responsible for skin rejuvenation and repair. This results in a younger, smoother, plumper and brighter looking skin.

Microneedling with or without PRP, it stimulates the production of new Collagen creating a controlled injury to the skin in the form of microchannels. This results in a younger, smoother, plumper and brighter looking skin. It can be used on its own or in combination with Platelets Rich Plasma (PRP) or growth factors serums.

Polynucleotides, which are a sequesnce of nucleotides that, once injected, target the fibroblasts to produce more collagen and elastin. By doing so they aid skin regeneration and tissue repair, they also increaseskinh hydration and hyaluronic acid synthesis.

Exosomes,  which are extracellular vescicles. This treatment aids tissue regeneration, softening fine lines and wrinkles, tightening loose and aged skin, hydrating the skin, improving skin tone and texture.

HIFU, stands for High intensity focused ultrasound. HIFU reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, helps to lift and firm sagging skin as well as rejuvenates the overall appearance, by stimulating collagen production. It’s also very effective in reducing stubborn fat deposits in multiple areas. It’s a completely non invasive treatment and has zero downtime.

All these can significantly reduce the appearance of cellulite, resulting in a smoother, healthier looking skin.

Combining  the above treatments has proven particularly effective in reducing cellulite.
