Our skin ultrasonography scan and consultation can offer you answers to the following common questions, among many others:
Is what I have cellulite, plain fat, skin looseness, lipedema, visceral fat or water retention - and how can it be improved?
I had liposuction / vaser / smart lipo / cellulite surgery, can you check if what I have is fibrosis or unremoved fat?
My skin is damaged due to RF microneedling / HIFU / extreme intensity RF / extreme intensity ultrasound / poly-L-lactic acid fillers, what can I do?
Why is my skin so loose and where to focus to make it tighter?

High-tech equipment and clear, science-based explanations in plain language
At LipoTherapeia we use the latest technology in high-resolution, high-frequency diagnostic ultrasound, specific to skin and subcutaneous adipose tissue. This enables us to clearly visualise skin laxity, cellulite, fat accumulation, lipedema and fibrosis.
Everything will be shown and explained to you clearly in simple terms and you can see and understand how the different structures inside your skin affect your appearance.
If there is scar tissue / fibrosis, those will be clearly seen and we can differentiate between fibrosis, water retention, fat, cellulite and skin laxity, both deep and superficial.

Diagnostic ultrasound image and video of cellulite (hypodermis) and fat tissue (subcutaneous adipose tissue) on the back of thighs
Below you can see ultrasound imaging of a small sized banana roll (upper back of thighs), from a normal body sized woman in her early 40s, with progressed skin laxity and Grade 2 cellulite.
Skin ultrasound image of cellulite globules and subcutaneous fat in the banana roll area, below the buttocks
Skin ultrasound video of cellulite globules and subcutaneous fat in the banana roll area, below the buttocks
In the image and video above, the epidermis, dermis, dermal hypodermal junction / DHDJ, hypodermis, cellulite, cellulite globules, cutaneous retinaculae (“collagen bands” / septae), superficial fascia, subcutaneous adipose tissue (‘fat’), deep fascia, perimuscular fascia and a small part of musculature can clearly be seen.
In the video the alternating cellulite fat globules are visualised even more clearly.
Findings:
The dermis is of normal thickness for that body area
As this banana roll is small-sized, the subcutaneous fat is relatively thin here
The cellulite globules are of average/large size
The intermediate fascia is fragmented
The tissue is quite fibrous, which is normal for this body area
These findings, together with those of other body areas, the external assessment and information provided during the consultation, were used to optimise treatment for this client.
All images were taken at our clinic in London (LipoTherapeia, 10 Portman Square, London W1).
At the time of first publishing this page the client was currently undergoing treatment for both cellulite and skin laxity with deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency and high-power ultrasound cavitation.

Diagnostic ultrasound images of skin at the lower back of thighs, with loose skin, intermediate fascia and large cellulite “bump” visible
Below you can see an image of normal skin and hypodermis, for comparison:
Skin ultrasound image of the lower, outer back of thigh with intermediate fascia visualised
This is an image of the lower, outer back of thigh.
Observations:
The dermis is of normal thickness for that body area
No cellulite is visible at this segment
Only one retinaculum can be observed at this spot
The superficial fascia can be observed (in orange) but the intermediate one is missing
The deep fascia is almost fused with the perimuscular fascia
At the bottom of the picture, the biceps femoris muscle can be clearly seen
Image U1 (C2)
Skin ultrasound image of the lower, outer back of thigh with deep cellulite globule
This is an image of the lower, outer back of thigh.
Observations:
The dermis is thin at this level
Some cellulite is visible
A fat globule is seen forming a cavity within the superficial fascia - this would be observed as a large cellulite bump from the outside (in orange)
The intermediate fascia is missing
The deep fascia is clearly distinguished from the perimuscular fascia
At the bottom of the picture, the biceps femoris muscle can be clearly seen
Image U1 (C7)
Loose, puffy skin and cellulite on the lower, outer back of thighs
This is a video of the lower, outer back of thigh.
Observations:
After weight loss of 10kg (1.6st) the hypodermal connective tissue at this level is extremely “spongy” and loose
No proper retinaculae are seen, just an amorphous mass of thin, weak connective tissue and multiple “islands” of fat globules
The dermis, hypodermis and subcutaneous adipose tissue look almost fused together, with no visible fascia shown between them
Upon pressure, it is compressed with the exception of large fat globules surrounded by hard connective tissue
After more than 100 clients assessed, this is the first time we saw this hypodermis / subcutaneous adipose fat appearance
This is visible from the outside as a fatty/puffy area
