Aside from the structural anomalies with the connective tissue bands described above, other contributing factors for cellulite include a slow down in the metabolism, excess weight, hormonal changes , and genetic factors.
There is a grading system for cellulite. Not all women have the same level of cellulite. The grading goes from 1-3 according to the extent and severity of the dimples. Therefore, the treatment plan will vary in terms of duration and number of treatments according to the severity of you cellulite.
Since cellulite is a multi factorial problem, there is no single device that can address all the contributing factors that can cause cellulite in the first place.
At Physimed MediSpa, we are very much result oriented. We found that a multi-modalities approach was the most efficient solution to effectively treat cellulite. It is the combination of Radio Frequency, High Energy Radial Shockwave therapy and Specific Wave Phototherapy that give you the best results. We use 3 machines namely, Trusculpt iD, Z-wave and Soli-Lite that work in synergy with specific protocols to achieve the results that you wish for yourself.
How do these 3 modalities work?
TruSculpt iD
TruSculpt iD uses radiofrequency energy for deep tissue heating that promotes the non-invasive removal of fat and the tightening of the overlying skin. In addition to reducing fat, truSculpt iD treatments can help improve skin tone while improving the appearance of cellulite.
The heat waves from Radio Frequency forces the fat cells to release their free fatty acids into the “milieu” and die. The debris are then picked up by our lymphatic system (our sewage system) and eliminated naturally by the body.
At the same time, new collagen and elastin fibers below the surface are created as a result of the increase in the metabolism of fibroblasts.
TruSculpt iD is well tolerated by our patients, with minimal discomfort and no downtime. Typically 1-3 treatments are necessary for the best results, which generally appear over a period of 4-12 weeks following each treatment.
Soli-Lite Phototherapy
We as humans have biological reactions to certain specific wavelength of light. For example, when under the sun, our body converts UVB rays into vitamin D and our skin cells (called melanocytes) become stimulated to secrete some melanin which is the pigment that makes you look tanned.
Phototherapy triggers certain biological reactions for different specific purposes, stimulating the natural healing and rejuvenating power of the body’s cells.
Depending on the function of this procedure, a wavelength is chosen, and strong LED lights emitting that wavelength are shined onto the parts of the body that are targeted. Each wavelength reaches a different depth of skin. Specific wavelengths of light in therapeutic applications have been highly documented, proven and supported by clinical and medical literature. Yellow light at 590 nm targets circulation (lymphatic & blood circulation), red light at 633 nm targets the dermis (photo-aging treatment) by stimulating the proliferation of fibroblasts that synthesize collagen, tissue supporting skin structures and near-infrared light at 830 nm targets deeper subcutaneous connective tissues and muscles.
Since the cause of cellulite is multifactorial, you would need these 3 modalities plus an appropriate diet with a specific exercise routine to see the results that you are looking for.
Like most procedures in medical aesthetics, yearly maintenance treatments will be required to maintain your results.
