Cellulite is a European
term to describe deposits of dimpled fat commonly
found on the thighs, buttocks, legs, and even
the abdomen. Cellulite is a condition that gives
the skin an uneven, rippled, dimpled appearance.
Slim people can have cellulite too. It is estimated
that 80% of all women over the age of 20 have
cellulite. On the other hand, very few men have
cellulite. Cellulite is an accumulation of fat,
fluid and toxins trapped into a hardened network
of elastin and collagen fibers in the deeper levels
of your skin. Try squeezing some of the skin on
the upper thigh and if it looks lumpy, you have
cellulite. The skin might also look whiter and
feel colder than the rest of the body.
Dr. Stolar and Dr. Perkins are happy to offer cellulite
treatment using Velasmooth, which is performed by our
licensed aesthetician, Olga Rodriguez. The procedure
involves a combination of radio frequency energy in
combination with lymphatic massage. Additional benefits
may be seen with Lipodissolve therapy, which is performed
by Dr. Stolar and Dr. Perkins.
