Know About Cellulite Reduction in Kansas City Metro Area Treatment

Cellulite Causes and Treatment

Cellulite is a common condition affecting 90% of women and 20% of men, regardless of fitness level. Though it poses no major health risks, it is notoriously difficult to eliminate due to various contributing factors.

Causes of Cellulite

  1. Lymphatic and Circulatory Issues: Poor lymphatic function and circulation in affected areas increase the likelihood of cellulite.
  2. Hormonal Imbalances: Estrogen, insulin, noradrenaline, thyroid hormones, and prolactin play roles in cellulite formation.
  3. Poor Collagen Production: Inadequate collagen can contribute to cellulite development.
  4. Genetic Factors: Genes related to gender, race, metabolism, fat distribution, and circulation can predispose individuals to cellulite.
  5. Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, lack of exercise, and prolonged sitting or standing can worsen cellulite.
  6. Clothing: Tight elastic in underwear can restrict blood flow and contribute to cellulite formation.

The Formation of Cellulite

Cellulite consists of enlarged fat cells within connective tissue, classified as a connective tissue disorder. Low collagen production allows fat cells to rise towards the skin, causing the “orange peel” or “dimpling” effect.

Cellulite is categorized into four grades:

  • Grade 0: Smooth skin, no visible dimpling when sitting or standing.
  • Grade 1: Mild dimpling when sitting, not visible when standing.
  • Grade 2: Moderate dimpling, visible when standing but not lying down.
  • Grade 3: Severe dimpling, visible when sitting or lying down.

Causes of Cellulite

  • Enlarged adipose tissue or fat cells.
  • Low collagen production.
  • Connective tissue allows fat cells to rise towards the skin.

Our Cellulite Treatments

Our treatments target cellulite from multiple angles to provide faster and longer-lasting results.

Key benefits include:

  • Collagen Stimulation: Promotes tighter skin and connective tissue, reducing cellulite appearance.
  • Fat Cell Reduction: Decreases the size of fat cells.
  • Lymphatic Stimulation: Helps remove fat and toxins.
  • Metabolism Boost: Increases ATP synthase.
  • Improved Circulation: Enhances blood flow, water, and micronutrient delivery to affected areas.

invisa-RED™ Technology

Invisa-RED™ treatments effectively smooth and eliminate cellulite, comparable to liposuction, without needles, pain, or downtime. This technology:

  • Restores fat cells to a smaller size.
  • Stimulates collagen and elastin production.
  • Increases blood flow and nutrient delivery.
  • Promotes a smoother, tighter skin appearance.

How it Works

Our pulsing laser light therapy increases collagen production to strengthen connective tissue and activates fat cells to release their contents, which are then metabolized or eliminated through the lymphatic system. This process results in smooth, cellulite-free skin.

How Many Treatments Do I Need?

Visible results can often be seen after just one treatment, but optimal results are achieved after multiple sessions.

Treatments are short and recommended three times per week throughout your treatment schedule.

In addition to reducing cellulite, you may also see a reduction in the circumference of the treated area and an improvement in skin texture.

A consultation with a clinician will provide a personalized treatment plan based on your goals.

Will There Be Any Downtime?

No, the treatments are non-surgical, non-invasive, and pleasant. They are very relaxing, and studies show effective cellulite reduction without the side effects of invasive procedures.

Areas That Can Be Treated

Any area of the body can be treated, with the most common areas being the back of the legs, hips, thighs, buttocks, and waist.

Maintenance

After reaching your desired results, we recommend a maintenance schedule of one to two treatments per month to maintain smooth, cellulite-free skin.
