We had a question by a website visitor a few weeks ago: “Thank you for your ‘Acoustic wave therapy for cellulite: does it work?’ page. What about lipedema (lipoedema)? If it doesn't work on soft fat, what about the hard fat that forms from lipedema? I have lipoedema, as do 1/10 women. I'm not sure what stage, as doctors don't know much about it. Just wondering if you have tried AWT on lipedema, as there is no research so far.” I have to say this is a very smart question and (unless ones has specifically studied the anatomy of adipose tissue and the science of AWT) makes a lot of sense. However, the devil is always in the detail. So let’s look at the details.
Can wegovy / ozempic / mounjaro get rid of cellulite?
Wegovy, the stronger version of the drug semaglutide, has just been approved in the UK. Semaglutide injections, in the form of ozempic, are prescribed for diabetes, while in the form of wegovy they are prescribed for obesity. Both drugs have led to serious weight loss, at least in the cases where its sometimes severe side effects did not inhibit their use. As fat is the most important aspect of cellulite, the obvious question is: can ozempic/wegovy also be an anti-cellulite drug?
