Cellulite is a completely painless collection of fat cells beneath the skin that is likely to affect the vast majority of the population at some point in their lifetime. Cellulite appears when the fibrous bands beneath the skin are stretched by the buildup of fat between them, causing them to pull down on the skin that they are tethered to.
It gives the appearance of a bumpy or dimpled “orange peel” texture to the skin, and many people opt to look for a treatment to reduce its appearance due to the effect that it can have on their self esteem and body confidence.
The BTL X-Wave system is designed to treat the appearance of cellulite by using a range of specialised acoustic wave pulses to trigger vibrations within the tissue beneath the skin, causing the fibrous bands to relax and stretch to give a smoother appearance. The vibrations produced by the BTL X-Wave system also enhance the circulation within the fatty tissue found between the fibrous cords, which enhances the blood flow and causes the breakdown of the fatty tissue, allowing it to be removed as a waste byproduct via the lymphatic system.
The X-Wave treatment also provides a boost for the production of collagen which helps the skin to have a smoother and healthier appearance. Collagen, along with elastin, is responsible for giving the skin it’s elasticity and as we age the body starts to slow its production (which is a contributing factor to the appearance of cellulite). The renewed production, in addition to the destruction of the fat cells, aids in the reduction of cellulite in any area of the body.
The number of treatments that is needed depends on the area that is being treated, as well as the individual who is going to have the treatment. The X-Wave device is suitable for treating areas including the arms, stomach, thighs and buttocks, so a larger area like the stomach or buttocks may take more treatments to achieve the final results.
Generally, a course of between 4 to 6 sessions spread evenly over a few weeks is perfect for the treatment and reduction of cellulite, and although the final results will take some time to show, many clients report noticeable results immediately following their first session.
