Cellulite Reduction
Cellulite is a common cosmetic concern that affects the appearance of the skin, particularly in areas with underlying fat deposits like the thighs, buttocks, hips and abdomen. It is characterized by a dimpled or lumpy appearance on the skin’s surface. For the latest in cellulite reduction, SculptMED Aesthetics offer a variety of treatments to help you achieve your goals.
What Is Cellulite?
Cellulite is a superficial condition that affects the skin’s appearance and texture. It occurs when fat cells push against the skin and are trapped by the fibrous connective tissue, causing the characteristic dimpling or puckering effect.
Cellulite can vary in severity, with some individuals experiencing mild dimpling while others may have more pronounced cellulite. While cellulite is a common cosmetic issue, it’s important to note that cellulite is a natural and common occurrence, and its presence does not indicate a health problem.

What Causes It?
Cellulite is primarily caused by structural factors related to the distribution and composition of fat beneath the skin. The connective tissue (fibrous bands called septae) that attaches the skin to underlying muscle can pull down on the skin, creating dimples when fat cells accumulate.
Hormonal Changes
Hormones, particularly estrogen, may play a role in the development of cellulite. Hormonal fluctuations can affect fat storage and circulation.
Genetics
Genetics can influence a person’s predisposition to cellulite. If your family members have cellulite, you may be more likely to develop it.
Lifestyle Factors
Lifestyle choices like a poor diet, lack of exercise, smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, can contribute to the development or exacerbation of cellulite.
When It Starts
Cellulite can start to become noticeable in adolescence or later in life. It often becomes more apparent as people age and their skin loses elasticity and thickness.
Can You Get Rid of Cellulite?
While it can be challenging to completely eliminate cellulite, there are various treatments and lifestyle changes that can help reduce its appearance. It’s important to note that the effectiveness of these methods can vary from person to person, and results may be temporary. Here are some approaches to consider for cellulite reduction:
✦ Some over-the-counter and prescription creams and lotions claim to reduce the appearance of cellulite. These products often contain ingredients like caffeine, retinol, or antioxidants. While they may provide temporary improvements in skin texture, their effects are typically not long-lasting.
✦ Massage techniques, such as lymphatic drainage massage, can help improve circulation and temporarily reduce the appearance of cellulite. Dry brushing, using a natural-bristle brush on the skin, may also have a mild exfoliating effect.
✦ Cosmetic procedures like laser therapy and radiofrequency treatments can help tighten the skin and stimulate collagen production. These treatments may result in improvements in the appearance of cellulite after multiple sessions.
✦ Various devices like acoustic wave therapy, can be used to target cellulite. These treatments typically require multiple sessions and can provide modest reductions in cellulite.
✦ A balanced diet and regular exercise can help reduce overall body fat, which may, in turn, reduce the appearance of cellulite. Strength training exercises that target the affected areas can help improve muscle tone and firm the skin.
✦ Staying well-hydrated is essential for maintaining healthy skin. Proper hydration can improve skin elasticity and texture.
✦ Maintaining a healthy weight can help prevent the development of new cellulite and may reduce its appearance in existing areas.

Non-Invasive Cellulite Reduction Treatments
It’s important to have realistic expectations when seeking treatments for cellulite. Most methods provide temporary improvements, and maintenance may be required to sustain results. Additionally, individual results can vary, and not everyone will achieve the same level of improvement.
Let’s explore how the treatments Evolve Tite, Evolve Transform and Morpheus 8Body work to ease the look of cellulite:
Evolve Tite
Evolve Tite is a non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) treatment that targets cellulite and loose skin. It works by delivering controlled RF energy into the deep layers of the skin, heating the tissues.
This thermal energy stimulates collagen production and tightens the skin, resulting in improved skin texture and a reduction in the appearance of cellulite. The increased collagen production helps to strengthen and firm the skin, making it appear smoother.
Evolve Transform
Evolve Transform is a comprehensive body contouring system that combines multiple technologies, including radiofrequency (RF) energy, deep tissue heating, and vacuum therapy. This treatment is designed to address both cellulite and fat reduction.
The RF energy and vacuum therapy work together to heat the tissue, encourage blood circulation, and break down fat cells. This combination of actions can result in a reduction in cellulite and an overall improvement in body contour.
Morpheus 8Body
Morpheus8 Body is a fractional RF microneedling device that can be used to target cellulite. It combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to treat the deeper layers of the skin.
The microneedles create micro-injuries that stimulate collagen production, while the RF energy heats the skin’s layers, leading to skin tightening and remodeling. This treatment can help ease the look of cellulite by improving skin texture and firmness.
