Cellulite is a major concern for the female body and concerns many of us on a daily basis. The appearance of cellulite is not influenced by either age or a woman’s body type.
What is cellulite and how is it caused? Cellulite is due to abnormal accumulation of fat and water between the skin and the subcutaneous tissue. In these areas, the connective tissue loses its elasticity (collagen), and the skin presents an irregular appearance with dimples and protrusions resembling “orange peel.”
It usually appears on the thighs, buttocks, abdomen, legs, and the inner arms. The main factors contributing to its appearance are genetic predisposition (heredity), diet, lack of exercise, hormonal disorders, and smoking. There is no absolute cure for treating cellulite. However, there are therapeutic options and measures that can help reduce its appearance and effectively combat it.
- Lymphatic drainage: Through a specialized process of massages in specific points, toxins are eliminated from the body, and lymph is drained. At Figura Clinica, we offer 2 treatments for combating cellulite:
- Lemfo Sony, which combines 30 minutes of electrotherapy and 5 minutes of ultrasound. This treatment fights edema and activates metabolism. It simultaneously improves the texture and tone of the skin and stimulates collagen and elastin production.
- Triple Cellulite Mesotherapy: It is a specialized treatment for cellulite. The treatment is applied in 3 stages combining Cryocavitation, Rf-Fractional, and non-invasive mesotherapy. It is a painless method with local action. The alternation of the Cryocavitation’s cold ultrasound, which helps release fatty acids, and small thermal injuries from Rf-Fractional that activate collagen synthesis, helps tighten and smooth the skin.
- Cellulite Mesotherapy: Injectable mesotherapy is used not only for our face but also for our body, helping to improve the appearance of “orange peel” and the general renewal of our skin. Lipolytic injections offer immediate results in combating cellulite. We are talking about injectable Cellulite Mesotherapy, which is performed by injecting special substances into the subcutaneous tissue using the multi-prick method in the affected area, painlessly and without anesthesia. The number of sessions depends on the extent of each individual’s problem. The results of injectable mesotherapy are immediately visible, as from the first sessions, the skin becomes smooth and firm, and cellulite and local thickness are significantly reduced.
- Shockwave therapy: Shockwave therapy is a treatment process that uses shockwaves to treat various musculoskeletal and skin problems, including cellulite and sagging skin. Shockwave therapy involves the use of high-energy ultrasound waves applied to the cellulite area. The treatment penetrates deep into the tissues, improving blood and lymph circulation, fighting edema, and dramatically reducing cellulite. Essentially, shockwave therapy helps produce new collagen, resulting in the skin regaining its natural elasticity and firmness. This treatment can be applied to areas with increased fatty mass such as arms, buttocks, thighs, flanks, calves, and knees. It can last from 30 minutes to 1 hour, is safe, and does not require recovery time.
