WHY AND HOW ARE CELLULITE FORMED?

Cellulite, which is caused by the appearance of fat cells between the skin layers and causes a dimpled-bumpy orange peel-like appearance on the skin surface, is one of the aesthetic skin problems that most disturb women most. There are quite a lot of people worldwide who want to get rid of cellulite as they enter the summer months.

iHealth member and JCI Bursa hospital head of clinic department Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery Specialist Professor Doctor, gave information about the factors that make up cellulite and the ways to solve it.

“Cellulite can be described as the appearance of fat deposits separated from each other by chambers in the subcutaneous area, manifested by irregularities on the surface of the skin. Cellulite, which is most often in the buttocks and thighs and is also called the appearance of orange peel, manifests itself after puberty. Although the exact cause of cellulite is unknown, there are a number of factors that are blamed. These are hormonal factors, genetic characteristics, eating habits, lifestyle and clothing preferences.

The degree of density of cellulite is divided into 3:

It is possible to classify cellulite into three subgroups according to its clinical appearance.

1- Although there are no externally noticeable disorders in the degree, changes in adipose tissue are observed on microscopic examination of the area. Surface irregularities do not appear when a person is standing or lying down, but they are there when the area is compressed between two fingers.

2- There are, albeit limited, superficial irregularities, the degree of which begins to be visible to the eye from the outside. These irregularities, which can be monitored while the person is standing, are not monitored in the supine position. This image is further enhanced when the region is compressed manually. It is manifested by a decrease in skin elasticity, pallor of the skin color and a decrease in skin temperature.

3- On the other hand, there are noticeable surface irregularities that are noticeable from the outside. This condition, called orange peel appearance, is also observed when a person is standing or lying down.

The treatment of cellulite primarily focuses on nutrition and exercise. There are many methods used to treat cellulite today. Most of them are successful for improving skin tone, reducing excess fat and / or improving microcirculation, but they do not have an effect on the ‘dimples/dimples’ caused by recurrent subcutaneous fibrosis.

A treatment method that has recently started to be used in our country also shows very effective results in cellulite. It is possible to get rid of fibrotic cellulite in one session with Spherofill Cell.

The procedure, which does not require general anesthesia, takes less than 1 hour

The application provides long-term cellulite treatment. Depending on the prevalence of cellulite, this treatment, which takes place in one session, can be completed in less than about an hour. Treatment is a procedure that is used to reduce the appearance of cellulite and does not require surgery.
.

It is a minimally invasive procedure and does not require general anesthesia either. The technology of its application uses a method with radio frequency support the size of a needle to treat ligamentous bands just under your skin.

.
In addition to all this, this method, which has a fairly high effectiveness, allows you to dissolve unnecessary tissue that accumulates under the skin with enzymes contained in the proteolytic solution October is left under the skin when the procedure is completed.

Positive results appear in a short time, and the effect lasts for 2 years

Positive results can be seen within a few days after treatment, and the appearance of cellulite-free skin can be maintained for more than two years. It offers effective and long-term maintained results in an outpatient setting without requiring hospitalization. The treatment is precisely aimed at the area of fibrosis in both the deep and superficial area, it is able to correct these areas and precisely eliminate the effect of orange peel.
