Use Ultrasonic Technology on Cellulite
Cellulite is a term commonly used to describe pockets of fat near the surface of the skin that cause a dimpled appearance. It is most common in women and typically occurs on the abdomen, buttocks and thighs. A variety of techniques are used to treat cellulite, including ultrasound. The following steps will show use ultrasonic technology on cellulite.
Instructions
1. Use the Med Sculpt ultrasound system in the United States. This model has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in cellulite reduction.
2. Perform a combination of pumping and sliding movements on the skin with the ultrasound unit. This produces a massaging effect on the cellulite that promotes the breakdown of fibrous tissue, increases the absorption of local edema and enhances the disintegration of fat.
3. Receive treatments based on your age and needs. Ultrasound is generally performed twice per week for four to six weeks. A follow-up treatment is generally every six to eight weeks thereafter. Ultrasonic treatments should be pain-free because they do not pinch or roll the skin and therefore do not cause bruising.
4. Expect clinical results to show an average loss of 1 cm in cellulite per session and a reduction in body contours of up to 3.5 cm. The mean loss over 12 sessions is 6 cm, with a significant improvement in the treated area's appearance.
5. Precede an Endermologie treatment with ultrasound. Some doctors have reported that a 10-minute session with ultrasound makes the Endermologie treatment more effective.
