Cellulite Reduction
3D Radio Frequency (RF) is used initially as it has an immediate effect of tightening the framework of the skin by contraction of the collagen fibres and tissue retraction, therefore aiding remodelling and rejuvenation. It also facilitates cellulite and stretch marks by improving blood flow to the treated area and promoting the breakdown of fat cells aiding the re-absorption and drainage of fatty deposits and retained fluids.
This is then followed by 3D Shockwave. Shockwave works by stimulating the fat break down, collagen synthesis and lymphatic drainage. Shockwave is delivered by placing a probe up against the areas of cellulite, as it passes over the area it emits Radial Waves through the skin.
How does it work?
Radio frequency (RF) is an advanced technology that safely heats the collagen in the skin (dermis). If sufficient energy is delivered, the collagen will contract, providing an immediate change in skin appearance.
The treatment also triggers a second process of new collagen production, leading to a significant change in skin appearance. A result of collagen remodeling is tighter, younger looking skin.
RF has two major intrinsic advantages over other technologies:
- it penetrates deeper into the skin
- it is not affected by skin colour
Shockwave works by stimulating the fat break down, collagen synthesis and lymphatic drainage. Shockwave is delivered by placing a probe up against the areas of cellulite, as it passes over the area it emits Radial Waves through the skin.
What areas can be treated?
Areas that can be treated are:
- Abdomen
- Hips
- Buttocks
- Inner thighs
- Outer thighs
- Inner arms
What results can I expect?
You should start to see improvement in your skin following the second treatment and additional improvement will gradually appear as the treatment course progresses. We would recommend 8 sessions every one or two weeks.
As new healthier collagen is formed, tighter, more natural looking and firmer skin will be produced. The gradual improvement in your skin will continue even after completion of the treatment series.
Are you eligible for this treatment?
Cellulite Reduction is not suitable when you have active infections or inflammations, viral/fungal/ bacterial disease, active cold sores, open lacerations or abrasions in the treatment area.
