How Does One Get Cellulite?
Did you know that around 90% of all women will have cellulite at one point or another in their lives? This statistic means that it’s practically unavoidable – although it’s completely treatable. In order to understand just how pervasive cellulite is in our lives, you first need to realize how many different factors are involved in its formation, as well as what cellulite is in general.
What Exactly is Cellulite?
To put it simply, cellulite is dimpled skin that has the texture of an orange peel. The skin has a lumpy and dimpled appearance, rather than the perfectly smooth one that you’d expect. It usually appears on the butt, the backs of the thighs, and in some cases, on the abdomen. While you mainly see cellulite on women who are middle-aged or older, it can certainly appear on younger women as well. It all depends on the factors that cause it.
While it is not completely understood what exactly causes cellulite, it involves fibrous connective cords that tether the skin to the underlying muscle. Fat lies between this skin and muscle. When the long, tough cords pull down, it can create a dimpling effect. Cellulite is much more common in women than men and is also more common with aging as the skin loses elasticity. Weight gain may make cellulite more noticeable, though some slender people can also have cellulite.
Cellulite Treatment
At our office, we offer Carboxy Therapy to treat cellulite. During this procedure, carbon dioxide gas is injected directly into the cellulite pockets. The carbon dioxide in turn causes the blood vessels to dilate, which increases blood flow and oxygen to the area. During this process, you may feel a tingling sensation at the injection site. Over time, the cellulite pockets begin to smooth out and disappear. The number of sessions needed varies on the patient’s cellulite or stretch mark severity. Treatment typically takes only 15-30 minutes to complete.
Carboxytherapy offers many benefits, including:
-
- Treatment is quick and painless
- Non-surgical option with little to no downtime
- Reduction in cellulite
- A boost in confidence
