Slim women can also have cellulite

Cellulite and skin laxity are more common in slim women and men than most people think.

This is because cellulite is a distinct layer of fat (hypodermal adipose tissue) that does not behave like - and that can increase in size independently of - normal, subcutaneous adipose tissue (what we call ‘fat’). So one can have little ‘fat’ and still have a lot of ‘cellulite’.

Furthermore, the same factors that can cause cellulite in slim women can also lead to skin looseness, making skin appearance worse.

What causes cellulite in skinny or slim women?

Skin looseness and cellulite is more common in larger-sized / curvy women (and men), but it also occurs more frequently than most people think in slim women (and some men) too. This is due to increased fat accumulation in the hypodermis.

The main causes of this increased hypodermal fat accumulation in slim women are:

• The action of female hormones after puberty: this is why fat accumulates both at the hypodermal level (cellulite) and subcutaneous level (fat) of the thighs and buttocks - and more rarely arms and stomach

• Constant fasting, dieting or yo-yo dieting that replaces firmness with fat

• Sedentary lifestyle, including lack of exercise

• Hormonal changes, hormonal contraception, menopause or HRT

• Excess consumption of sugar, carbs, fried food (of any kind), hydrogenated/trans fats, alcohol, seed oils

• Lack of protein and polyphenols in the diet

• Smoking/vaping, especially in genetically susceptible individuals

• Endocrine disruptors, such as microplastics and forever chemicals

• Years of long hours of office work

• Weight loss

• Pregnancy

• Fat removal surgery, which always leaves skin loose and with more visible cellulite: liposuction, vaser or smart lipo (laser lipo)

• Cellulite surgery (subcision, cellfina or cellulaze), which often fails to reduce cellulite and/or causes skin laxity

• Genetic reasons / hypermobility

• The normal ageing process

All the above leave skin and deep connective tissues on the thighs, butt, stomach, flanks and arms with cellulite and/or skin laxity - even in slim women.

Liposuction is not an option for cellulite, as it acts on the deeper subcutaneous adipose tissue, while cellulite is the more superficial, hypodermal adipose tissue - two totally different tissues (if a surgeon promises you that liposuction will get rid of your cellulite, they are simply lying).

Neither dieting makes sense in slim women. And in addition, as we all know, quite often dieting does not help with cellulite reduction on its own - at least not for fast results.

So there is a real need for a good cellulite reduction treatment on the thighs, bum, stomach and arms in slim women.

(That is, If you care about cellulite and skin laxity, of course. Not everyone cares about smooth or firm body and that is absolutely fine.)

What is the best cellulite treatment for slim women?

Healthy nutrition, lots of exercise and an overall wholesome lifestyle (avoidance of toxins such as cigarette smoke/vaping, hormonal contraception, microplastics, forever chemicals, alcohol etc) are the bases of every cellulite reduction and prevention treatment.

However, as every woman knows, these are quite often not enough to reduce cellulite considerably or quickly enough.

So a lot of women look for surgery or non-surgical methods, typically radiofrequency, HIFU, ultrasound cavitation, RF microneedling, acoustic wave therapy (AWT), manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) massage, mechanical vacuum suction massage (palper-rouler) etc.

We do not offer or recommend cellulite surgery which, due to low effectiveness and high probability of adverse reactions, causes more problems that it solves (i.e. fibrosis, hyperpigmentation, scars and hard lumps) and does not really reduce cellulite in most cases. For more details and links to examples of cellulite surgery adverse reactions, check our dedicated article.

There are also many non-surgical treatments marketed for cellulite reduction, the vast majority of which either don’t work or have a high rate of adverse reactions - or both.

So some people get fooled by deceptive marketing and opt for HIFU or RF microneedling, which, although non-surgical, can also result in the same adverse reactions, such as fibrosis, hyperpigmentation, scars and hard lumps, and do not really reduce cellulite in most cases, either. For more details and links to examples of adverse reactions from RF microneedling and high-power HIFU, check our dedicated article (low power HIFU, as well as AWT, MLD, palper-rouler and the like are safe but achieve nothing).

We see dozens of people every year who have been burned - literally and metaphorically - by such surgical or non-surgical procedures and we only work on such cases if the skin is not too damaged by those “treatments”.

After specialising for more than two decades in cellulite reduction and skin tightening (no laser hair removal, botox, fillers, fluffy facials, chemical peels and the like - just cellulite and skin tightening), we can confirm that currently the best SAFE and effective technologies to reduce cellulite are high-power, deep-acting radiofrequency and high-power, deep-acting ultrasound cavitation (unfortunately, superficial or low-power versions of these two technologies do not work).

These are the technologies we offer at our clinic and we combine them with high-power LED phototherapy. By acting on the cell mitochondria, high-power LED phototherapy maximises the effects of radiofrequency and ultrasound, for best results, naturally.

Advanced cellulite treatments in London for slim women, by LipoTherapeia

LipoTherapeia® Plus, our bespoke combination of these three technologies, is exclusively provided without compromises or cut corners at our central London clinic.

A PAINLESS, realistically priced and effective technology, LipoTherapeia® Plus has a 99.5%+ safety rate at our clinic, as it is based on naturally stimulating collagen production, hypodermal fat release and circulation/lymphatic drainage - not on burning the skin inside, as some procedures mentioned above aim.

In addition to cellulite reduction, the technologies comprising LipoTherapeia® Plus also have a profound effect on skin tightness* as well as a beneficial effect on stretch marks. So you get a combined benefit by the use of these technologies.

(*In fact, deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency is the gold standard technology for SAFE and effective skin tightening.)

In most cases of cellulite / skin laxity we recommend 6-12 sessions for best results (there are no miracle treatments that reduce cellulite or tighten skin in 1-4 sessions).

The only aesthetic practice in London specialising 100% in skin tightening & cellulite removal

Most aesthetic clinics offer 20, 30, even 50 different treatments, from laser hair removal to fillers to chemical peels to cellulite, and thereby lose specialisation and expertise.

A jack of all trades therapist or clinic cannot possibly be experts in 20, 30 or 50 different treatments. It is physically impossible to follow the science and all the latest developments in 50, 30 or even 20 fields.

And it is impossible to be good at one aesthetic condition, if you never study and practise with focus and depth the science of that aesthetic condition.

So at LipoTherapeia we only focus 100% on cellulite reduction and skin tightening - nothing else.

We do not do botox, fillers, chemical peels, dermablading, microdermabrasion, fluffy facials, laser hair removal and the like: just cellulite reduction and skin tightening with the best ultrasound, radiofrequency and LED phototherapy technologies in the world - no exaggeration. And we have a deep knowledge of these five subjects - for your benefit.

More than two decades of experience in cellulite reduction

At LipoTherapeia we make the most out of the best technologies in the world with our advanced protocols, developed over more than two decades and based on:

• A deep knowledge of the Physics of radiofrequency, ultrasound and phototherapy and the anatomy of cellulite and connective tissue (as opposed to the usual one-day training provided by machine manufacturers)

• Literally tens of thousands of sessions on thousands of clients with hundreds of kinds of body types, sensitivities and health/aesthetic issues

All with 99.5%+ safety and NO PAIN, NO DOWNTIME, no microneedling, no injections, no fillers, no dangerous “instant miracle treatments”, no numbing creams, no invasiveness, no surgery, no drama.

Just comfortable, safe and effective treatment that works by stimulating your skin to become smoother and firmer., naturally and safely.
