Cellulite Treatment

The most effective methods used in our clinic are LPG Endermology, TriLipo Tripolar Radiofrequency, Pressotherapy, Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Modeling Massage , and Mesotherapy.

LPG Endermology

LPG Endermologie uses suction and rolling technology to work on the skin. It is a mechanical and natural technique that:

1. It increases the microcirculation in the subcutaneous fat layer;
2. It removes the fluid that makes the body look swollen;
3. It stretches the connective tissue that is contracted and helps to smooth the skin;
4. It stimulates the beta receptors that optimize fat release;
5. It stimulates the production of fibroblasts, which produce more collagen and elastin: two essential substances for healthy skin.

Tripolar Radiofrequency

Maximus TriLipo Tripolar Radiofrequency treats all four layers of the skin, and reduces the size of the fat cells in the treated area and strengthens and regenerates collagen fibers. The reduction in fat cell volume causes the skin to return to its original shape, while the strengthened collagen fibers ensure that the skin has the necessary elasticity.

TriLipo technology consists of volumetric RF heating, combined with internal muscle contraction and external mechanical pressure, which together produce maximum fat removal and lymphatic drainage, as well as skin tightening.

Pressotherapy

Pressotherapy acts as a mechanical lymphatic drainage that, by applying pressure to the limbs, promotes lymphatic and venous flow.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage

In this treatment the movements are gentle and repetitive and reduce fluid retention.

Modeling Massage

It reshapes the silhouette, reduces measures by eliminating body swelling, accentuates body curves, improves tissue oxygenation, and acts against cellulite.

Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy is a minimally invasive medical-aesthetic procedure. Small injections provide a cocktail of active ingredients that are administered to the areas to be treated and "break down" the fat cells. It is considered one of the best treatments for localized fat and cellulite, clinically proven with excellent, measurable, and long-lasting results.

At the Michelle Bond Clinic, mesotherapy is administered by doctors only.

Before indicating the treatments for each case, it is worth knowing that there are 3 grades of cellulite classification, which are:

• Cellulite grade 1: are visible only with the pinching maneuver (compressing a small part of the body between the fingers) or just by palpating the skin;
• Cellulite grade 2: Cellulite can be visible in body movement or even in ambient light;
• Cellulite grade 3: the famous and popularized term "Orange Peel", because that is what the skin looks like at this stage, thanks to the formation of nodules.

Learn which treatments are appropriate for each degree of cellulite:

• LPG Endermology: grade 1 and grade 2;
  • It is possible to treat with LPG Endermologie alone.
  • I often tell my clients that this treatment is 2 in 1: besides having aesthetic benefits, it is extremely relaxing.
• LPG Endermology and the Tripolar Radiofrequency: grade 3;
  • The best results are obtained by interleaving the two technologies, LPG Endermologie and TriLipo Tripolar Radiofrequency.
• Pressotherapy: grade 1 and grade 2;
  • It acts as a mechanical lymphatic drainage that, by pressing the limbs, promotes lymphatic and venous flow. It is an excellent complement to the above treatments.
• Manual Lymphatic Drainage: grade 1 and grade 2;
  • It acts as a massage that helps the body's internal filtration mechanisms.
• Modeling Massage: grade 1, grade 2 and grade 3;
  • It is a treatment concept that uses a mix of manual therapeutic maneuver techniques and acts, initially, on the lymphatic system, superficial and deep;
• Mesotherapy: grade 2 and grade 3.

Cellulite is a multifactorial problem and differs from person to person. Its appearance is influenced by fat, hormones, connective tissue, and lifestyle.

There are two types of fat:

• Subcutaneous fat: it is inside the skin and is present in every centimeter of the integumentary system. It is the type of fat that forms cellulite;
• Reserve fat: is the type of fat that makes people look fat, since it is found in the hips, abdominal region, buttocks, and thighs.

The main differences between these two types of fat is that subcutaneous fat is organized. Together with collagen and elastin fibers, they form the connective tissue that works to structure and firm the skin. The cells in subcutaneous fat are resistant to diet and exercise, and seem to be affected by hormonal changes.

The sequence of events to form cellulite is as follows:

1. Expansion of the fat cells in the subcutaneous layer in response to signals sent by hormones;
2. Changes in the structure of the connective tissue that forms the holes in the skin;
3. Retention of fluid due to congestion in the circulation causing swelling;
4. Calcification of the collagen and elastin fibers leaving the cellulite fibrous.

Reserve fat is not organized and responds to diet and physical activity. Its main function is to store excess calories. This is the fat that is first removed in liposuction.
