Cellulite Treatment | Dr Dheeraj Bhar, Cosmetic & Aesthetic Surgeon, London

Over 85% of the adult female population suffers from cellulite.

Most often appearing on the thighs, buttocks, and abdomen, cellulite makes the skin appear dimpled or lumpy. For years, women have spent money on creams, lotions, wraps and supplements that promised to reduce cellulite, yet got virtually no results. But it’s a new day in cellulite treatment.

Are Cellulite Treatments For You?

You might feel badly about your cellulite, and wonder if you can make it go away with diet and exercise. The reality is that cellulite runs in families, and can appear in early adulthood no matter what type of diet and exercise regimen you follow. Bands of stiff fibers pull across pockets of healthy fat, creating the dimpled look that makes so many women feel self-conscious.

As you age, cellulite may become more visible because the skin loses elasticity and fat cells enlarge. Of course, gaining weight can also make cellulite more noticeable.

What to Expect

VelaShape® is the leading noninvasive technology for treating cellulite. It features the unique combination of infrared light energy, radiofrequency energy and actual kneading of the tissue. The combined heat energy delivered to the skin penetrates deeply enough to reduce thigh and buttock circumference and improve skin surface irregularities. It also improves lymphatic drainage.

After VelaShape treatment, patients appear to have lost weight because the entire area is re-contoured.

VelaShape is usually administered in a series of 6 weekly treatments, but after even on treatment the skin surface of the treated area will feel smoother, firmer and tighter. Reduction of thigh circumference and cellulite reduction will be most apparent 6 to 8 weeks following the final treatment.

Our patients love this treatment and describe it as being painless, and even pleasant. VelaShape requires no down time and is effective on all skin types and colors.

Thermage is a noninvasive laser treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to gently heat fat deposits beneath the skin.

It smooths, tightens, and contours the body and requires no down time. Because it eliminates unwanted superficial fat, Thermage improves the appearance of cellulite.

Measurable tightening and contouring improvements appear gradually over a two to six month time period following a single treatment session.

A Thermage treatment takes less than an hour, and is very safe. Your skin will feel tighter, smoother, and more youthful, and the effects will last for years.
