Cellulaze™: This is a non-surgical procedure done using a laser. It works on cellulite by releasing the bands that make the skin look like orange peel. It also ‘plumps’ the skin, which is helpful since cellulite develops where the skin becomes thin.
Effectiveness: The effects can persist for up to a year or more; however, further research is required to determine the duration that the treatment yields its optimum outcome. Other lasers can also improve cellulite, and the treatments’ benefits last four to six months.
Subcision (Cellfina™):
What It Is: It is a medical procedure in which a needle is inserted just below the skin to cut through the tough bands responsible for cellulite.
Results: CellfinaTM gets rid of cellulite, and the effects have stayed the same for up to two years. According to research, many patients were happy with the results. Ninety-nine percent of patients said they were pleased with the outcome.
Vacuum-Assisted Precise Tissue Release:
What It Is: Small blades pull the skin upright to allow the tissue to release the fibrous bands.
Results: Other reports reveal that it may decrease cellulite for up to three years.
Lifestyle Changes to Reduce Cellulite
Weight Loss:
Even though weight loss does not get rid of cellulite, it mellows it, particularly if loss is coupled with exercises that build up tone. However, it is risky to attempt to lose weight in a very short time because the skin can stretch, and when losing weight fast, it shrinks, therefore displaying cellulite.
Exercise:
Arizona says that having well-toned muscles and evenly replacing fat with lean muscles will help improve the texture and elasticity of the skin. Aerobic exercise, together with strength training, is the perfect way to reduce cellulite.
More Techniques on the Same and How Effective They Are
Carboxytherapy: This process entails injecting CO2 under the skin. Some work on the subject has revealed slight enhancements, but this has been achieved at the expense of side effects such as bruising and discomfort.
Creams and Lotions: Anything with caffeine or 0.3% retinol will temporarily disappear cellulite through cell shrinkage or thickening of the skin. However, to see any difference, it needs to be done day in and day out over several months.
