Cellulite treatment
A Cellulite is a very common, harmless skin condition that causes a lumpy, orange-like appearance on the thighs, hips, buttocks, and abdomen. This disease is most common in women. Many people are trying, with varying degrees of success, to improve the appearance of their skin through creams marketed for weight loss, exercise, massage and cellulite. Medically proven treatment options are also available, although the results are not immediate or provide lasting.

So far, the causes of cellulite formation have not been precisely clarified. The bottom line is that for hormonal and lifestyle reasons, adipocytes become abnormally obese in the compartments made by connective tissue fibers and put strong pressure on their walls. The connective tissue fibers are thus tensioned, so that small indentations appear on the surface of the skin. The cellulite skin thus becomes doughy to the touch and looks like an orange peel.
Cellulite treatment options
Cellulite gives a hard-to-accept look to most women, so they have been looking for a way to get rid of it for a very long time. A number of procedures have been developed over the years that lead to different results. Really effective procedures can reduce the number and size of fat cells under the skin, destroy the connective tissue fibers that create indentations, improve the blood supply and lymphatic circulation of tissues, and tighten the skin by increasing collagen production. Not all methods alone can provide the desired effect, so in most cases multiple treatments are required to achieve this, or even a combination of different procedures.
Each treatment method can be grouped into several categories.
- Surgical procedures are really effective, they provide spectacular results, however, due to their invasive nature, the incidence of possible complications is the highest here and the recovery time is the longest. During surgery, excess fat is removed by various mechanical procedures and the connective tissue fibers are destroyed. The procedure is performed under surgical conditions under local anesthesia or anesthesia, and the devices required for the procedure are inserted into the adipose tissue under the skin through an opening dropped in the skin. After the operation, the treated area may be swollen, edematous for a while, and bleeding may occur. The total healing time can take several weeks, during which time you will need to wear some form of compression dress. To reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis, your doctor may prescribe prophylactic injection therapy. These include the following procedure:
- Liposuction
- Cellulase ™ treatment
- Cellfina ™ treatment
-
The purpose of injection treatments is to destroy fat cells by injecting a chemical fat-breaking substance, most often deoxycholic acid (Aqualyx, Belkyra) into adipose tissue, and to increase the circulation, metabolism and detoxification of cellulite tissues by special methods of mesotherapy. With the help of Alidya, which can significantly improve the quality and appearance of the skin. The poly-L lactic acid-containing Sculptra is a collagen-enhancing substance that acts in the deeper layers of the skin and gradually works. When injected under the indentations, it increases collagen production, so that as a result of the increase in volume, wrinkles gradually smooth out and the pits fill up over a period of six weeks. Injection treatments are usually repeated 6 to 8 times to achieve the desired effect. In the case of large surfaces, the active ingredient is applied by many small punctures, which is painful on the one hand and can be quite expensive on the other hand, depending on the amount of active ingredient.

- Cellulite treatment machines are now state-of-the-art, efficient methods with the least inconvenience and risk. While maintaining the surface integrity and integrity of the skin, these devices are able to destroy adipose tissue and connective tissue fibers almost painlessly, improve circulation and metabolism in the treated area, and tighten the skin by stimulating collagen production. In most cases, too, more treatments are needed to achieve the desired result, but there are undoubtedly the best tolerable procedures. Although redness, swelling, and mild pain may occur after such treatments, they usually go away the next day and do not affect our daily activities. These treatments can also be combined well with each other.
- High-intensity focused ultrasound, which penetrates the skin and is generated by Lipohifu or Liposonix, has a dual tissue effect due to the high heat generated in the subcutaneous adipose tissue. On the one hand, the heat destroys the targeted fat cells, and on the other hand, it causes the subcutaneous collagen to contract, thereby tightening the skin as well. The system, pre-set in the treatment head, delivers energy to the target site in a controlled pattern in a defined pattern without damaging the skin surface. Targeted and permanently killed fat cells, as well as the fat in them, are removed by the body’s natural processes through the circulatory system in about 8-12 weeks, thereby reducing the number of fat cells, making the skin surface smoother and firmer.
- Velashape and Kuma shape devices have a treatment head that sucks the surface of the skin with a vacuum. On the one hand, it increases the tissue circulation through the negative pressure, improves its oxygen and nutrient supply, and detoxifies its function. On the other hand, the emitted infrared light and radio frequency heat up the tissues. This further increases the amount of oxygen flowing out of the blood, which increases the metabolic activity and metabolism of the tissues, thus increasing the breakdown of fat cells with increased energy requirements. Increased lymphatic circulation, in turn, drains tissue fluid accumulated in connection with cellulite.
- The operating heads of the latest Slim Beauty, Emsculpt or Teslaformer body treatment machines, placed towards the treated area, trigger very fast, serial muscle contractions with the help of high-intensity pulsed electromagnetic energy. The number of muscle contractions in a 30-minute treatment can reach 20,000. Thanks to its effectiveness, a few treatments increase muscle mass as well as reduce the amount of adipose tissue. This treatment has been developed primarily to form a more muscular, firmer shape, d and when supplemented with other treatments can significantly improve the condition of cellulite skin.
