Cellulite

Smoother-looking skin, with realistic expectations.

What it is

Cellulite is the dimpled look on thighs, hips and buttocks. It happens when fibrous bands under the skin pull down while fat pushes up. Most women have some, at any weight.

No treatment removes cellulite completely, but some can improve how the skin looks by firming it and improving texture. Results are usually gradual and need maintenance.

Common causes

  • The structure of connective tissue under the skin
  • Hormones
  • Genetics
  • Thinner, less firm skin with age
  • Weight changes and fluid retention

Areas

  • Thighs
  • Buttocks
  • Hips
  • Abdomen

How we plan it

We combine firming treatments with lifestyle steps that support results. Improvement varies, and cellulite tends to return over time without maintenance.

We'll be honest about what each option can and can't do for your skin.

Frequently asked questions

Can cellulite be removed?

Not completely. Treatments can improve how it looks, but it tends to come back over time.

Does losing weight get rid of cellulite?

Not always. Cellulite is about skin structure, so it appears at any weight.

Does massage work?

Massage may improve the look of skin temporarily, but it hasn't been shown to reduce cellulite in a lasting way.

How many sessions will I need?

Usually a series, then maintenance. We'll plan it with you.
