Cellulite is a common skin condition that many Buffalo, NY women are constantly worried about, but with the revolutionary SmoothShapes® cellulite reduction procedure at Cheryl’s Hair Removal Center, women need to worry no longer. Cellulite is so common that close to 90 percent of all post-pubescent women suffer from some degree of this skin condition. For years, scientists and researchers believed that cellulite was due to excessive weight gain, obesity, clack of exercise and poor diet; however, this is actually not the case.
The appearance of cellulite is detected when skin of the thighs, hips and buttocks starts to take on a lumpy, dimpled appearance; many women refer to it as the ‘orange peel’ or ‘cottage cheese’ look. This dimpled skin is actually caused by engorged fat cells that become trapped in the network of fibrous septae which are located in the subcutaneous layers of skin. The fat cells get trapped and the septae harden. The cells get pushed up against the outer layers of skin which caused the dimpled effect. Cellulite is most commonly caused by hormones, vascular changes and inflammation – three bodily occurrences that are unfortunately out of our control.
Because cellulite is such a common problem among adult females in Buffalo as well as throughout the country, SmoothShapes® has constructed an approach that practitioners and patients alike can trust and believe in. This revolutionary laser cellulite treatment offered at Cheryl’s Hair Removal Center employs a scientific approach to cellulite treatment. Unlike all other cellulite devices currently available for cellulite reduction, the SmoothShapes® system effectively treats cellulite by improving the overall condition of engorged fat cells and fibrous septae through a proprietary technology called Photomology®. Photomology® restores the cells through a unique mechanism of action which combines contoured rollers and vacuum suction with dynamic laser and light energy in order to specifically target problem cellulite areas. The results for Cheryl’s cellulite reduction patients: tighter, smoother looking skin.
The Photomology® technology works to preserve fat cells while stimulating the normal metabolic processes of the body. This treatment uses specific laser and light wavelengths to target the physical manifestation of cellulite: mainly engorged fat cells and brittle fibrous septae. There are two specific wavelengths of light utilized during the SmoothShapes® treatment, each has a specific purpose. One penetrates deep into the tissue and is absorbed by the lipids which cause fat liquefaction while the other modifies fat cells for removal of liquid fat. The contoured rollers moving simultaneously with the application of the light energy help to move liquefied lipids into the lymphatic system for proper removal. The light energies does not change the integrity of the fat cells, they simply works hand in hand with the vacuum suction to help modify and move cells for proper removal of liquefied fat.
During the SmoothShapes® treatment at Cheryl’s Hair Removal Center in Buffalo, New York, the collagen in the skin is remodeled in order to restore fat cells and smooth and tighten the skin. Simultaneously, metabolic processes are stimulated to minimize the underlying causes of cellulite; minimizing these causes restores the tissue to a better state. The combination of laser and light energy, vacuum suction and mechanical massage via the Photomology® technology represents a significant improvement in the way that cellulite is treated. After a series of treatments, patients will feel smoother, firmer skin and can expect long lasting cellulite reduction results. Visit Cheryl’s to find out more today.
