Women predominantly suffer from the effects of cellulite because the fat distribution in their body primarily takes place around the hips, buttocks, and thighs. It is a common phenomenon that comes into play as a person grows older.
Lean people suffer from this condition too, but it is much more noticeable in the case of an overweight person. An inactive lifestyle or pregnancy can increase the chances of having cellulite.
• Hormones like estrogen, insulin, thyroid & many more are responsible for the development of cellulite
• It can also be a genetic disorder and passed on to the children from their parents or grandparents
• Stressful life gives rise to the level of catecholamines that, in turn, lead to the formation of cellulite in your body
• Dimpled & bumpy skin, sometimes referred to as orange peel or cottage cheese texture
• Mild cellulite deposition can be detected by pinching the area around the thighs
• Severe cellulite gives the skin a bumpier & rumpled appearance with valleys and peaks over the affected area
It is a complex condition that arises due to various reasons ranging from heredity to hormones.
Lifestyle choices like smoking, excessive intake of fried food, and body fat can lead to cellulite build-up in your body.
The number of sessions needed depends on the cellulite treatment chosen, the severity of your cellulite, and your skin type. In general, more than one session will be required, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. However, we will provide you with a timeline during your consultation with us.
Most of our treatments are fairly pain-free due to their non-surgical nature. However, if pain is a concern, you can always discuss your fears with us prior to treatment, and we can apply a topical anaesthetic if needed to help you feel comfortable throughout the procedure.
Not at all. Cellulite affects men and women of all shapes, sizes, and ages.
Your results depend on the cellulite treatment chosen, the severity of your cellulite, and your skin type. In general, treatments that stimulate collagen production usually start to show results after a few weeks, with improvements continuing every week thereafter as more collagen is produced.
Of course. If you are interested in maximising your results, we can recommend cellulite treatments that work well together.
Yes, cellulite can return after an aesthetic treatment. Most cellulite treatments can help improve its appearance, but usually do not provide a permanent cure. Maintenance treatments, a healthy diet, regular exercise, and good hydration can help prolong the results, but it is normal for cellulite to gradually return to some extent.
