Why a Multi-Treatment Approach is Best for Reducing Cellulite 

Cellulite is one of the most common and complained about body concerns - in fact, between 80 and 90 per cent of women are estimated to have cellulite. 

Cellulite appears when fat cells below the surface of the skin swell. Also known as orange-peel skin due to the dimpling texture, cellulite is a multifactorial condition. The truth is, genetics, age, hormones, circulation, and lifestyle factors such as diet and exercise are all thought to play a role. Cellulite is most commonly found on the thighs, hips, abdomen and buttocks, and affects people of all shapes and sizes – even the fittest of people can experience cellulite. 

It’s no secret that reducing the appearance of cellulite is difficult. In the past, cellulite was treated with invasive procedures or through massage and lymphatic drainage. However, with advancements of technology, we now have safe non-surgical treatments that can help minimise the appearance cellulite.

Several studies show that a combination of treatments can produce better results. However, choosing the right treatment(s) for you can depend on many factors such as the severity level of your cellulite and your individual goals.

At Elite Body Contouring, we treat mild to severe cellulite using a holistic combination-technology approach (including , Dermology, Radio Frequency, LIPOcel Body Sculpting, and Electromagnetic Muscle Stimulation) to help melt the fat, regenerate collagen, improve circulation, and smooth the surface of the skin.

The first step is to assess the cellulite. At Elite Body Contouring we rate the cellulite severity on a scale from 1-10 so we can establish an individualised treatment using fat reduction and skin tightening technology (and in some cases a combination of both) to maximise the results.

This innovative and non-invasive treatment uses High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) to permanently destroy fat cells and tighten the skin together simultaneously. It can be used on various parts of the body, including the arms, thighs and buttocks, and research shows that LIPOcel can reduce stubborn fat permanently by 20 to 40 per cent in the targeted area each session.

This treatment targets superficial layers of fat by melting and flattening the fat cells to help reduce the appearance of cellulite and smooth the appearance to the skin. Studies using laser and light modalities, along with radiofrequency, have shown to help improve the look of cellulite. They are also extremely safe. 

Radio Frequency (RF) Skin Tightening is a non-surgical treatment to tighten the skin which involves using energy waves to heat the deep layer of the skin (the dermis) to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, resulting in smoother, firmer, and younger-looking skin.

The latest non-invasive electromagnetic muscle building and toning treatment, StimSure can help burn fat and strengthen, tighten and tone muscles in less than 30 minutes. This is important as firming the muscle underneath the cellulite can help smooth the skin's appearance.
