For many patients, cellulite it’s a severe problem. It affects their body, buttocks, and especially their legs.

Cellulite is not an illness. Although it has an adverse aesthetic effect, making men and women feel unhappy with their bodies.

The origin of cellulite is the concentration of body fat, water, and toxins in some areas of the body. That can grow from a mild irregularity to severe changes in the surface of the skin.

The scientific name for cellulite is Ginoid Lipodystrophy (LDG), and its most evident effect is esthetic, in an irregular appearance on the skin with cavities and undulations.

The most common points for cellulite are legs, thighs, buttocks, and sometimes belly or arms. It’s more prevalent among women, although men can also suffer from cellulite in areas of skin flaccidity due to fat accumulation.

Several factors trigger cellulite, such as genetic predisposition, overweight, sedentary habits, poor diet, circulatory disorders, pregnancy, stress, or age.

Benefits of Radiofrequency and Cavitation

Radiofrequency treatment consists of the application of modulated waves that generate heat. Ther doctors apply it to localized points of the subcutaneous fat tissue, without affecting surrounding tissues.
The Radiofrequency focuses the heat for dissolving the points of the irregular body fat distribution.
Besides, this system tightens tissues and increases blood circulation, which in time helps to reduce the appearance of cellulite.
The Ultrasound treatment, also known as Cavitation, consists of the application of vibrations in the affected area.
This produces a high-frequency motion wave which dissolves irregular fat deposits.
The body naturally eliminates the fat along with toxins and accumulated water without any adverse effect.
