Cellulite

Toronto areas including Thornhill, Richmond Hill, North York, Vaughan, Markham, Aurora, and Newmarket.

Cellulite, often linked to genetics, sex, age, and lifestyle, becomes more visible as estrogen decreases with age, reducing skin elasticity and circulation, causing fat cells to protrude through connective tissue.

HOW DOES LASER CELLULITE TREATMENT WORK?

Laser Cellulite Treatment employs a sophisticated, non-invasive approach, harnessing the power of dual-wavelength Nd:YAG and Er:YAG lasers to combat cellulite. This innovative treatment is designed to achieve two key objectives: skin tightening and cellulite appearance reduction.

The Nd:YAG laser operates with a super long pulse mode, crafted to penetrate deep beneath the skin’s surface. This depth is crucial, as it targets the primary zone where fat cells protrude, contributing to the visible dimpling of cellulite. The laser generates controlled heat focused on these fat deposits, initiating a process of natural cell death (apoptosis) while ensuring the surrounding skin remains unscathed.

Overall, this dual-action laser therapy offers a comprehensive solution for cellulite, focusing on both underlying fat deposits and surface-level skin texture, resulting in a smoother, firmer, and more toned appearance.

Understanding Cellulite: Causes, Effects, and Why Diet and Exercise May Not Be Enough

Cellulite is a prevalent condition, that affects approximately 90% of women and 10% of men, mostly manifesting after puberty.
This condition results from the interaction between fibrous connective cords that anchor the skin to underlying muscle layers and fat deposits.
As fat cells expand and fibrous cords contract, fatty tissue pushes against the skin, creating a well-known uneven, dimpled surface appearance.
Cellulite primarily occurs in the subcutaneous tissue layer, which is heavily influenced by hormonal activity, rendering it less amenable to traditional weight loss methods like diet and exercise.

A few things you should know about Cellulite

Cellulite, a condition frequently observed in individuals, has a distinct connection to the composition of connective tissue, influenced by a variety of underlying factors. Research indicates that genetics, sex, age, and lifestyle choices, particularly a sedentary lifestyle, play significant roles in determining the prevalence and visibility of cellulite.

A key aspect in the development of cellulite is hormonal changes, especially as women age and transition into menopause. During this period, estrogen levels in the body begin to decline. This reduction in estrogen has a direct impact on the blood vessels, leading to decreased circulation. The diminished blood flow results in lower oxygen and nutrient supply to the affected areas.

Concurrently, there’s a decrease in skin elasticity due to the aging process. Alongside, fat cells tend to enlarge and accumulate. These enlarged fat cells push through the weakened connective tissue, creating the characteristic dimpled appearance of cellulite on the skin’s surface.

In essence, the visibility and intensity of cellulite are not merely a result of fat accumulation but are intricately linked to changes in connective tissue composition, hormonal fluctuations, and other physiological factors.

Body contouring has received approval from the FDA and Health Canada for its precise fat cell reduction capabilities in various areas of the body, such as beneath the chin, the abdominal region, flanks (commonly referred to as love handles), thighs, and arms.
Numerous peer-reviewed studies have provided substantial evidence showcasing the efficacy of Coolsculpting technology in effectively reducing stubborn fat deposits while ensuring the preservation of adjacent tissues. It’s important to note that individual results may differ, but on average, each Coolsculpting treatment typically achieves a 20% reduction in fat.

Body contouring permanently eliminates specific fat cells. When combined with a healthy lifestyle and proper diet, these results can be maintained for the long term.
