Facts About Cellulite
Cellulite
is the name for bundles of fat stored between
the muscle and skin. Muscle is attached to the
skin through bands of fibrous connective tissue.
Under the influence of time, gravity and hormones,
the stored fat pushes against the connective tissue,
compressing the skin and causing the appearance
of dimples or puckers in the overlying skin.
While
most forms of cellulite occurs on the thighs and
buttocks, in some people, it also occurs on the
upper arm, the back of the neck, and stomach.
In most people, the appearance of cellulite worsens
with age. This does not mean, however, that younger
people do not get cellulite. Indeed, cellulite
often starts to develop at a young age. Left untreated,
this condition worsens in appearance as the person
ages.
Cellulite
Treatments
A number of treatments and creams have been introduced
over the past decade claiming to remove cellulite.
To date, these treatments have offered no results.
However, many treatment options are currently
being used in various spas & cosmetic surgery
centers. Treatments like mesotherapy, velasmooth,
and other procedures are producing positive results.
Mesotherapy &
Lipodissolve involves injecting microscopic quantities
of natural plant extracts, homeopathic agents,
pharmaceutical agents and vitamins into the skin
for cellulite, weight loss, spot reduction, and
rejuvenation of the skin.
Velasmooth &
Triactive combine multiple treatments including
lasers, radio frequency, massage or other techniques
to combat cellulite.

Smartlipo
Treatments in Las Vegas, NV
SmartLipo, Smart Lipo, Laser Liposuction or laser
lipolysis, is a procedure for fat removal like
liposuction that utilizes the energy generated
from a laser fiber to "melt" fat away.
Laser liposuction is performed in a doctor's office
under a light, local anesthetic.
Traditional liposuction uses a vacuum with a
metal tube attached, which the doctor moves back
and forth as it tears out and removes fat. You
get more loose skin as a result, bleeding, swelling,
scaring and destruction of tissue. Sagging skin
sometimes necessitates additional surgical procedures
such as face or neck lifts. Alternatively, Smartlipo
uses a laser which melts away fat and results
in less destruction and bruising, less scaring
and no stitches. Recovery times are also faster
with Smartlipo.
Smartlipo is often used for treating small areas
of the face, neck, arms, male breasts (gynecomastia),
and other areas of loose or lax skin (flabby skin).

that precisely and efficiently removes unwanted
body fat. An alternative to the harsh techniques
of traditional liposuction, VASER Lipo uses state-of-the-art
ultrasound technology designed to gently reshape
your body. What distinguishes the VASER Lipo procedure
is its ability to differentiate targeted fat from
other important tissues such as nerves,
blood vessels and connective tissue. Innovative
VASER technology breaks up fat while conserving
these other important tissues. Only the VASER
Lipo procedure uses the proprietary VASER System
to first liquefy fat and then remove it from the
body to promote smooth results and rapid healing
with only low to minimal pain.

Is a minimally invasive fat removal procedure
that uses the focused power of laser energy to
break up and dissolve fatty tissue trapped beneath
the skin. By directing the energy to the area
beneath the surface of the skin, the technique
also encourages the development of collagen, which
results in a tighter, more toned appearance overall.
This procedure is very popular due to the rapid
recovery time.
