Almost all of us have cellulite, especially women. Ugh! 80-90% of women develop cellulite after puberty whereas only 10% of men have it. And let me be perfectly clear.....being overweight is not THE cause so stop beating yourself up. Cellulite can appear anywhere but is most common on the butt, thighs and tummy.
The cause of cellulite is multifactorial and represents a chronic inflammatory process. Cellulite forms when fibrous bands connecting your skin to the underlying muscle tighten irregularly. This tightening pulls down on your skin, and the layer of fat beneath the skin pushes upward. This results in a puckered appearance to the skin.
In women the subcutaneous tissue connects to the muscles differently than in men. In men, the fibers that make up the connective bands crisscross together. In women, the fibers that make up the connective bands run the same direction and are an equal distance apart. (see above) These "parallel" bands may show puckering more than crisscross bands. Hormonal factors play a role too. Higher amounts of estrogen cause cellulite. Cellulite often develops more rapidly when women produce more estrogen, like during adolescence or pregnancy. A high-calorie diet that features a lot of carbs, fats, salt and preservatives can also contribute to the development of more cellulite. And since cellulite is a chronic inflammatory process, it can be made worse by smoking which diminishes blood flow to the area and weakens the formation of collagen.
Again, cellulite is a chronic inflammatory process, therefore it can be hard to get rid of and keep away. Treatments include liposuction, Qwo, and Cellfina for example, all of which can work but have their associated costs, swelling, bruising and down time. There are multiple at home devices and other noninvasive medical devices as well, none of which we have been very satisfied with in the past. Until now.......
Emtone is the first and only device that delivers both thermal and mechanical energy to treat all the contributing factors to cellulite. In clinical studies Emtone showed a 93% visible reduction in cellulite.
It is appropriate for all skin and body types. It is completely noninvasive, painless, requires no downtime and requires no anesthesia. We sell Emtone in a package of 4 that usually last 20-30 minutes for each treatment and are done 1 or 2 times per week. Many many people see results after the first treatment. Results typically continue to improve over the next few months as well.
With this monopolar radiofrequency combined with a targeted pressure energy and mechanical effect, after an Emtone treatment the size of the fat chambers are diminished. Collagen begins to remodel. Blood flow to the area is enhanced and skin elasticity is restored. Plus, there is an increase in metabolic waste removal.
It's very popular to combine an Emtone package with an EmsculptNeo package (see previous blog on EmsculptNeo) Both are noninvasive and painless; they can remove fat, build & tone muscle plus treat cellulite. 501-228-6237
