THE ACCENT IN BEVERLY HILLS:
THE ANSWER TO CELLULITE |
Cellulite, although occurring in men, is far more common in women, which may indicate a hormonal factor in its formation. Generally, cellulite will appear in an area of the body that carries excess fat. However, both thin and overweight individuals are plagued by cellulite.
Although there is no direct health threat from moderate cellulite, the dimpling look across the skin's surface can be a source of embarrassment. In response to public need for an aesthetic answer to cellulite, the market has been flooded with creams, lotions, pills, diets, and exercises promising results. Although, topical treatments do not penetrate the skin, they may lead to some perceived improvement. Surgical procedures, such as liposuction, are expensive, accompanied by health risk, and require relatively long recovery periods. With the development of radiofrequency technology, doctors have the ability to change the shape of the connective tissue and reduce the appearance of cellulite. Many patients even notice weight loss post-treatment, especially in combination with diet and exercise.
The Accent employs three mechanisms to modify the symptoms of cellulite. Deep thermal heating is applied to the fat bundles (a) to stimulate the production of new collagen and skin remodeling. By increasing blood circulation, the Accent also helps drain trapped fatty deposits and toxins. Finally, the thermal activity actually reduces the size of fat cells (b).
The treatment can be virtually painless and no topical or general anesthesia is required. There is no downtime and the procedure is safe on all skin types. As with most laser treatments, desired results require a series of treatments followed by maintenance treatments. Please call AVA MD Medspa at (310) 843-9915 for a consultation to determine candidacy.
