Is a cottage cheese-like appearance on your thighs, hips, or buttocks keeping you from wearing shorts or your favorite bikini? Have you tried eliminating this bumpy fat with diet, exercise, or maybe even a cosmetic spa treatment with no success? Unfortunately, this bumpy fat is extremely hard to remove, and anything short of medical intervention will prove to be ineffective.
Does that mean you’re on your own, with no hope in sight? Absolutely not. At Campanile Plastic Surgery, we have evaluated dozens of devices over the years that claim to tackle cellulite once and for all, and we offer what we have found to be the best cellulite reduction option available: VelaShape, a non-surgical treatment that targets cellulite and can deliver the results you are looking for.
A Closer Look at Cellulite
While most people assume that cellulite is nothing more than pockets of odd fat that leave the characteristic dimples behind, the fact is, cellulite is a little more complicated than that. When it comes to your body, fibrous connective cords tether your muscles to the skin, with fat filling the spots in between. As fat cells accumulate in this space, they can force the skin further away from the muscle. However, these cords keep the tension where they attach, creating the unique dimples associated with cellulite.
Cellulite is most typically found on women’s hips, thighs, and buttocks, but men can get it too, and it can appear anywhere on the body where fat is present.
Why Is VelaShape III the Best Solution for Cellulite?
Now that you understand how cellulite forms and where it might appear, it’s easy to understand how liposuction and the removal of fat alone will not remove the fibrous connective cords that cause cellulite’s hallmark dimples. The same is true if you lose some weight on your own – the dimples might look a bit better, but the lumpy skin texture often remains. VelaShape III is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that effectively targets cellulite.
During treatment, a hand-held device rolls over your skin, pulling the skin up and relaxing the connective fibers that pull at the skin. At the same time, infrared light and radiofrequency target the unwanted fat below the skin, helping to reduce the fat cells and help achieve your body contouring goals. By targeting both the connective bands of tissue and the underlying fat cells, we are able to achieve a noticeably smoother surface skin appearance.
If you are hiding cellulite under baggy pants and saying no to a day at the beach, it might be time to say goodbye to cellulite once and for all with VelaShape.
