Cellulite is a very common concern that causes skin to have a dimpled or bumpy appearance due to a build-up of fat beneath the skin. While cellulite is harmless, it’s a skin concern that can affect confidence, leading to many seeking cellulite reduction treatment. At The Greville clinic, we offer a number of options for non-invasive cellulite treatment in South Yarra.
Cellulite can be caused by a number of factors, including genetics, age, hormones, skin structure and weight. However, while weight can be a factor, it’s important to know that fat deposits themselves aren’t responsible for the appearance of cellulite. In fact, cellulite can be experienced by thin people as well.
To understand how cellulite forms, it’s important to know a bit about how the body stores fat. Beneath the skin are fat cells which are stored in compartments that provide a connection between skin and muscles. Sometimes fat cells can become too big for these compartments and bulge outwards. This fat can then become visible above the skin, causing a lumpy and irregular appearance.
RF skin tightening is an available cellulite removal treatment that involves delivering radiofrequency energy deep within the skin layers. This energy works to destroy fat cells, which are then removed by the lymphatic system. The treatment also stimulates collagen production to help firm the skin and reduce the appearance of cellulite.
Fat cavitation is an excellent non-surgical treatment for cellulite. It involves applying low frequency ultrasound to areas of concern, subjecting fat cells to strong pressure that results in liquefaction. In addition to reducing the appearance of cellulite, fat cavitation can also be used to address stubborn pockets of fat.
Fat freezing is an effective treatment for cellulite removal in Melbourne. Also known as Coolsculpting, this treatment is non-invasive, making use of medical-grade freezing technology to sculpt and tone the body. Fat cells are cooled, which induces cell death and helps reduce fat and cellulite.
If you’re interested in how this treatment can help, we can provide fat freezing cellulite treatment before and after photos to show you what can be achieved, during your consultation.
Skin needling for cellulite, also known as microneedling, is a body treatment that involves stimulating collagen production to strengthen the skin’s structure. Using an advanced skin needling device, tiny micro-punctures are created in the area being treated, triggering the skin’s natural healing process to promote production of collagen and elastin. This helps to minimise the appearance of cellulite.
