Reduce dimpling and uneven texture.

Cellulite is a condition that mainly affects the hips, thighs, buttocks and stomach and although it can affect anyone, it is more prevalent in women. This harmless condition is often perceived to be a concern that is associated with people who are overweight, but the truth is it can be present on people of all sizes. The appearance of cellulite typically shows as lumpy or dimpled skin, often being described as having a texture that compares to ‘orange peel’ or ‘cottage cheese’.

Cellulite is caused by the connective tissues pulling down on the skin, whilst the natural fatty deposits push up, creating a surface that looks uneven. It is thought that hormones can play a large part in the development of cellulite, alongside genetics which influence the traits pertaining to body type, and the structure of the body and skin. One of the reasons why it is thought that cellulite affects more women than men is the way in which fat is distributed throughout the body, as well as the differing pattern of the connective tissues.

Although gaining weight is not a factor for the development of cellulite, it can often make the condition more prominent. Ageing can also contribute as the skin loses elasticity and the underlying structure loosens and becomes less supportive.

At Nassif MedSpa we have a range of treatments to help reduce the appearance of cellulite on areas of the body. This can work to significantly improve the way a person feels about their overall body profile, boosting confidence and elevating self-esteem.

FAQs

Cellulite is caused by the way fat sits within the fibrous bands beneath the skin, creating a dimpled appearance, most commonly on the thighs, hips and buttocks. It affects the vast majority of women, whatever their weight or fitness, and is influenced by genetics and hormones.

Treatments that improve skin quality and firmness, such as Sciton SkinTyte, can help smooth the appearance of cellulite, and massage therapy can support circulation and skin health. A consultation will give you an honest assessment of what can realistically be achieved for your skin.

Improvements build gradually over a course of treatments as the skin firms. Cellulite cannot be permanently removed, so maintenance sessions help preserve results.

All treatments at Nassif MedSpa are carried out by trained, experienced practitioners using medically approved products and technology. Your medical history is reviewed at consultation, and any side effects or risks specific to your recommended treatment will be explained fully before you go ahead.

Every journey at Nassif MedSpa begins with a one-to-one consultation. We assess your skin and concerns, listen to what you want to achieve, and recommend the treatment, or combination of treatments, best suited to you. If we do not believe a treatment will benefit you, we will tell you.
