What Is the Cost of Cellulite Treatment in Toronto?
The cost of a cellulite reduction treatment depends on the number of zones being treated, as well as the overall size of the zones. Typically, the most common zones – the thighs and buttocks – cost between $2,000 and $3,000. However, should patients opt to undergo cellulite treatment in additional zones, they will receive a discount on the cost of their program.
How Long Is the Recovery Time After Cellulite Reduction?
There is no recovery time after cellulite reduction in Toronto. You can return to your regular activities immediately, although you may experience some soreness, redness, and bruising, which will go away in 1-2 days.
What Are the Causes of Cellulite?
Cellulite is formed when fibrous bands in the body connect the skin to muscle, tighten irregularly, and pull on the skin, causing a puckered appearance. As fat cells accumulate, this can create a worsened, uneven surface. Hormonal factors play a significant role, as cellulite often appears during puberty or after childbirth. Weight loss/gain, muscle tone, and aging can cause cellulite.
What Is a Cellulite Procedure?
Our trusted aesthetic specialist offers minimally invasive procedures designed to treat skin that appears lumpy, bumpy, or irregular. Doctors can use radiofrequency and ultrasound technology to make skin appear smoother and softer.
Laser treatments are available for cellulite reduction in two methods. The first method involves a fiber placed under the skin to deliver laser heat, destroying the fibrous bands binding the fat. This approach reduces the appearance of cellulite for six months to a year.
The second method involves a radiofrequency device that uses heat to reduce the look of cellulite and is non-invasive. This method involves a few sessions before seeing an improvement in your skin’s appearance.
Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Cellulite Reduction?
You are an ideal candidate for a cellulite reduction procedure if you are unhappy with the appearance of dimpling on your body, you are happy with your current body weight and are not severely overweight, you are in good health, and you have realistic expectations. You should not get cellulite reduction if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or under 18.
Benefits of Cellulite Reduction
Some benefits of cellulite reduction in Toronto include:
- Reduced puckering/dimpling. Although some patients may require several cellulite reduction sessions to resolve dimpling, you will see results, as the fat deposits form beneath the skin are removed.
- Improved blood flow. Areas undergoing cellulite reduction experience enriched oxygen supply in the muscles and tissues as fat reduction creates better blood flow. Cellulite reduction can also unclog blood vessels previously blocked by fatty tissue. Anything trapped by the cellulite, including excretions and impurities, will be drained as the blood flow improves, boosting energy levels.
- Improved contouring of the body. Cellulite reduction smooths the skin, evens the surface, and improves its elasticity. With this, it also enhances your figure. Fat deposits will be dispensed proportionally, shaping your stomach, buttocks, thighs, and arms to create your dream body. Any swelling experience from cellulite will go down, so you’ll have a toned, youthful-looking body.
Risks of Cellulite Reduction
Some risks of cellulite reduction in Toronto include:
- Bruising, redness, swelling, and tenderness. After the procedure, you may experience these symptoms for 1-2 days, but they will go away quickly.
- Weight gain can make cellulite more noticeable. If you gain a drastic amount of weight after your procedure, you are at a high risk of the cellulite returning as the fat deposits will be filled again. An inactive lifestyle and pregnancy can increase your chances of having cellulite, so make sure you do not intend to have children anytime soon and lead a healthy lifestyle before considering the procedure.
How to Prepare for Cellulite Reduction
If you are a smoker, you must stop before undergoing your cellulite reduction procedure to promote better and faster healing. You should also hydrate before and after the procedure and avoid taking aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs, and herbal medications that can cause increased bleeding (which also means increased bruising.)
Lastly, ensure you have someone to drive you home after your procedure.
What to Expect From Cellulite Reduction
After your cellulite reduction procedure in Toronto, you:
- Might experience sensations of warmth for a few hours.
- Have mild redness and bruising, which will subside in a few hours.
- Will see slow improvement after the first treatment – real results will be seen after 6-8 weeks.
- Will need multiple treatments as a way to achieve optimal results – and touch-ups to maintain those results.
- Need to keep up healthy habits, like staying active and eating a balanced diet.
