Is Cellulaze the best cellulite treatment for Walnut Creek residents?
Cellulite is a problematic skin condition for many patients. Women are
typically more likely than men are to develop cellulite, which is an
unwanted combination of tight fibrous connective cords and fat cells
beneath the skin. Together, they can create this dimpled, “cottage
cheese” appearance, which typically occurs on areas of the body such as
the buttocks and the thighs. Factors such as weight changes, hormones,
genetics, and aging can contribute to cellulite.
It is impossible to avoid the development of cellulite. Even
those who eat right and are active may have cellulite. Thankfully,
there are effective ways for patients to seek the best cellulite
treatment. In the Walnut Creek area, Dr. Christine Lee provides a
wonderful technique to reduce cellulite by using Cellulaze.
Cellulaze is a laser treatment that was developed by
Cynosure, and is the only FDA cleared device for reducing cellulite.
Other products such as pills, lotions, and creams do not provide
satisfactory results—if any—and can be disappointing for those who have
high hopes of reducing this unattractive condition. Cellulaze actually
targets the pockets of fat and the connective tissue bands that result
in cellulite, and can provide amazing, long-lasting results after just
one treatment.
The procedure for Cellulaze takes approximately an hour and a
half. Dr. Christine Lee will mark the areas being treated. Numbing
solution or local anesthesia is then used before she makes incisions
into the area. These are very tiny, approximately the size of a pen.
Then, the Cellulaze laser is slipped through a tube known as a cannula
and inserted through the incision into the lower layers of the skin.
This laser will level out fat bumps, release fibrous tissue bands (that
pull the upper layer of skin down and produce the dimpling effect),
stimulate collagen production, and liquefy the fat cells. This entire
process is done seamlessly by Dr. Christine Lee.
Cellulaze is considered one of the best cellulite treatments
for Walnut Creek patients. It can target the problem areas and provide
stunning, effective results. Patients who are unhappy with their
cellulite may find that this is the only way to achieve the results they
desire. Dr. Christine Lee, of Walnut Creek’s The Skin and Laser
Treatment Institute is available to answer any questions that new or
existing patients may have about this revolutionary technology.
