Cellulite

Do you have uneven, lumpy skin on your hips, thighs, or buttocks? If so, this may be a sign of cellulite.

Cellulite occurs when the skin over certain areas of fat is pulled downward to the deeper tissues by connective tissue bands. This creates the uneven surface we see with cellulite.

Understanding Cellulite: A Scientific Approach at First Impressions

Although cellulite affects an estimated 80-90% of women, we at First Impressions Rejuvenation Clinic understand it can significantly impact self-confidence and quality of life. As Nova Scotia’s premier medical aesthetics clinic, we believe in empowering our clients with both knowledge and effective solutions.

What Really Causes Cellulite? Think of your skin like the beautiful Nova Scotian coastline – it has distinct layers that work together harmoniously. Cellulite appears when fat deposits naturally push through the connective tissue beneath your skin, creating that characteristic dimpled texture. It’s crucial to understand that cellulite isn’t about weight or fitness level – even the most athletic individuals can have cellulite. It can also be caused by diet and lifestyle choices, hormonal factors or simply genetics.

The Science Behind Treatment At our Sydney and Bedford locations, we offer advanced treatments, supported by extensive clinical research. Recent studies in the Aesthetics Journal have shown remarkable developments in cellulite management, particularly through radiofrequency technology. Our cellulite treatments, specifically our 3DEEP technology, are used for cellulite reduction and body contouring with clinically proven results. They work by using radiofrequency (RF) energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and breaking down fat cells, which improves the appearance of cellulite. These treatments are non-invasive and generally require no downtime.

Here’s a more detailed look at how we use our Endymed to address cellulite:

  • 3DEEP Technology:

Endymed utilizes a multi-source, phase-controlled RF technology that focuses energy on the deeper layers of the skin, where cellulite is primarily located. Using precise delivery, the treatment uses computer-controlled thermal patterns to target specific tissue layers

  • Cellulite Reduction:

The heated tissue breaks down fat cells, stimulates collagen and elastin production, your body responds by producing new collagen, leading to improved skin texture and a markedly reduced appearance of cellulite.

  • Body Contouring:

Endymed treatments can also help to sculpt and define the body by targeting and reducing fat in specific areas, such as the thighs, buttocks, and abdomen.

  • Non-Invasive and Painless:

The treatment is generally painless, with many patients finding the heating sensation comfortable. It’s also non-invasive, meaning there’s no surgery or downtime required. The process is gentle and requires no downtime – perfect for our busy Maritime clients

  • Individualized Treatments:

Our treatments are customized to suit individual needs, allowing for tailored treatment plans based on the severity of cellulite and the specific areas to be treated.

Clinical Evidence You Can Trust. Research findings demonstrate impressive results:

  • Most clients see initial improvements within 1-2 weeks
