Hypodermal fat accumulation and cellulite: the elephant in the room that most treatments ignore

Hypodermal fat accumulation and cellulite: the elephant in the room that most treatments ignore

When it comes to cellulite many so-called “cellulite experts” focus on everything else than the elephant in the room, the most important thing: hypodermal fat accumulation - i.e. fat accumulation in the deepest layer of the skin, the hypodermis. It is increased hypodermal fat accumulation that causes circulation constriction and consequent water retention…

Radiofrequency / cavitation: gel, cream, serum or oil? When to use each conductive medium.

Radiofrequency / cavitation: gel, cream, serum or oil? When to use each conductive medium.

“Radiofrequency” is an all encompassing term for treatment with different types of high frequency electrical currents. Different machines utilise different frequencies, from an extra low of 300kHz to an extra high of 5GHz. The types of physical phenomena at play on those different machines are quite different…

What is better, RF or cavitation, for cellulite?

What is better, RF or cavitation, for cellulite?

Let’s see first how each technology works and in which cases it works best. Deep-acting, high-power ultrasound cavitation works by disrupting fat cells mechanically (ultrasound is sound, ie mechanical waves), as well as via heat. This leads to lipolysis (fat release from fat cells) as well as adipocyte apoptosis (accelerated fat cell death)…
