Cellulite is undiscriminating skin condition. Being slim does not exempt you being cellulite-free. So whether you are fat or thin, jiggly or muscled, you are a perfect target of cellulite. The fight for cellulite is synonymously battling with genetics, hormonal factors, diet, lifestyle and age. Sad to say women are more prone to those pesky undulations and indentations due to female skin architecture says NYC dermatologist, Dr.Schweiger. Men’s connective tissue is diagonal and criss-crossed, laid smoothly and continuous. While women’s connective tissue lies vertical to the skin and during the start of puberty, wherethe estrogen levels increases and skin elasticity weakens and the fat chambers (septae) starts to develop due to the connective tissue structure causing the fat to be pushed upwards while at the same time the fibrous bands pull the skin downwards.
Introducing the New Technique
Before, having cellulites means that you have to deal with them forever, but not anymore and this is what the buzz about Cellulaze. A surgeon will administer a local anesthesia and threads a laser fiber with the help of a cannula that is as thin as the pencil lead and trims the fat chambers (septae) melts them and heats the skin from the inside out and this encourages the growth of collagen and elastin.
The laser fiber turned into 90 degrees is effective enough to break and vaporize stubborn septae. The laser fiber will then be turned toward skin surface wherein the heat will thicken the skin. The moment those septae were severed, there is no chance for them to grown back making you totally cellulite-free. The laser heat is said to promote collagen and elastin growth will make your skin 29% more elastic.
