Cellulite Treatment FAQs
What is cellulite?
Usually a feminine phenomenon, cellulite results from a build up
of fat in the adipocytes (sub cutaneaous fat cells), and the
retention of water in the surrounding areas. As the adipocytes
continue to grow, their envelopes containing them lose their shape
and pull on their cutaneous anchoring points, giving the skin its
"orange peel" appearance.
At this stage, the main problem is that the process is
self-sustaining as a result of a reduction in blood circulation,
causing stagnation of the metabolic waste, nutritional
impoverishment and congestion of the connective tissue, which loses
its elasticity and becomes fibrous. This unsightly condition
results in cellulitic areas that are unresponsive to physical
exercise and to the strictest slimming diets.
Who will cellulite treatment benefit?
If you have cellulite on your legs, bottom or arms, and would
like smoother and more radiant skin tone, then you should explore
both treatments available for cellulite. People who have tried to
rid their bodies of cellulite using a strict diet and exercise are
encouraged to try one of the treatments, which are both
particularly good for eliminating stubborn patches of cellulite.
The above treatments can also be used to improve skin tone and
radiance generally, and the appearance of scar tissue and
burns.
How is the cellulite treatment done?
Endermologie is a unique non -invasive technique for shaping the
body, slimming and improving overall skin fitness. Endermologie® is
an easy and comfortable alternative to liposuction, body wraps and
messy creams. The treatment involves the use of a motorised device
with two adjustable rollers and controlled suction, which pulls the
skin into a small chamber in which it is gently pinched and rolled.
Collagen and elastin production is boosted generating a healthier
rejuvenated skin tone. The dramatic improvement to the look of the
skin is also attributed to the deep stimulation of the circulation.
It brings a massive surge of blood and oxygen to the affected areas
and increases the lymphatic drainage of stagnant toxic waste. Most
clients describe the treatment as similar to a deep body massage.
All patients will be given their own personal body stocking, which
needs to be brought along to each session.
The VelaSmooth™ is the first medical device for cellulite. The
VelaSmooth combines vacuum suction, mechanical rollers, and heating
through infrared light and bipolar RF energy. Reduction in
cellulite and contouring are the treatment goals for VelaSmooth™.
Using the VelaSmooth system patients have an odourless, colourless
gel applied to the area to be treated prior to applying mechanical
rollers.
How long will the cellulite treatment take?
Treatment times may vary depending on how many treatment areas
and the total surface area treatment. Typical treatment time ranges
from 45-60 minutes. A course of between 15-20 treatment sessions is
usually recommended.
What results can I expect from cellulite treatment?
Most patients achieve noticeable changes in contouring and skin
tightening after 10 sessions, and first start seeing a difference
after the first 5-6 treatment sessions. Treatments are performed
once or twice weekly. Following a course of treatments maintenance
sessions are needed to maintain the results of the course. Browse the before and after pictures of cellulite
treatment to see some great results.
How long is the recovery period from cellulite treatment?
There is no recovery period from the cellulite treatments.
Are there any after effects from cellulite treatment?
With the VelaSmooth system there is some pinkness to the skin
and the areas feel warm for a short while after a completed
treatment session. Normal activities are resumed the next day. Some
patients may experience bruising in the treated areas, especially
if they are prone to bruising easily.
With the CACI endermologie system there should not be any
noticeable side effects.
Are there risks associated with cellulite treatment?
Transform has performed more cosmetic surgery than any other
provider in the UK. As such, we are extremely experienced; there is
no provider better placed to help you become more confident through
non-surgical cosmetic procedure. You can talk through any concerns
you may have at your free consultation.
Can I combine other treatments with cellulite treatment?
Many people like to combine cellulite treatment with other
procedures to prepare the body prior to going on holiday. Transform
offer hair removal treatments, and vein removal to improve the skin
tone on the legs.
How much does cellulite treatment cost?
A course of cellulite treatment costs from £500.
