The best time to have a course of cellulite treatments is now

At the clinic we see two types of clients who get cellulite treatment timing wrong: the ones who believe that they must lose all the weight first (very wrong and counterproductive) and the ones who believe that they must leave their treatments until the last minute, so that the results last into their holidays (also wrong and they cannot find any appointment times, especially i peak season). Here I analyse why those two approaches do not work and why.

Book your course of cellulite treatments at least 3 months before holidays

When is the best time to have a cellulite treatment?

Most people think that they have to wait to have a course of cellulite treatments until:

  • “I first lose all my weight”

  • “2-3 weeks before the holidays, as, if I have my treatments too early, results will disappear by holiday time”

However, as we will see below, both of these approaches are wrong.

The time to start taking care of yourself is now, not at some imaginary perfect moment in the future

  • In regard to the “losing all the weight first” belief: it’s wrong. You should actually make sure your weight loss coincides with your cellulite treatments. This will ensure maximum results by combining the lipolysis occurring from the weight loss process with the lipolysis occurring from the treatment. This, in turn, will maximise hypodermal fat loss on the area treated, i.e. better results with cellulite reduction.

  • In regard to treatment result longevity, if you have a course of 6-12 deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency and/or deep-acting, high-power ultrasound cavitation treatments (the gold standards in cellulite reduction), results will last for up to two years or more, provided you eat healthily and exercise. So you can have your course of treatments now and follow a healthy lifestyle to maintain results, not only until your holiday but for months and years to come.

Even with a short-term outlook, still do not leave it too long

Of course, if your plan is to have a quick boost before holiday and then go back to the old habits of eating unhealthy, drinking and not exercising, then by all means, start your course closer to the holidays.

Even in this case though, please note that given that the recommended course of 6-12 sessions requires anything between 3-24 weeks to be completed (depending on treatment frequency), you must start your course at least 3-24 weeks before holiday.

Starting 2-3 weeks before holiday will mean too few treatments received - perhaps as few as 2-3 in the peak season, which are quite pointless.

All in all, whether your outlook extends to years or weeks, start your course of cellulite treatments at least 6-12 weeks before holidays.

And if your focus is on a permanent healthy lifestyle from now on, not just a temporary improvement before goign back to your old, cellulite producing lifestyle, start your course of cellulite treatments right now.

Have a treatment in London with the cellulite experts

At LipoTherapeia we have specialised 100% in skin tightening and cellulite reduction for more than two decades and 20,000+ sessions.

This is all we study and practise every day and have researched and tried hands-on all the important skin tightening equipment and their manufacturers.

As strong, deep acting radiofrequency and deep-acting, high-power ultrasound cavitation are the technologies of choice for skin tightening and cellulite reduction, we have invested in the best RF/ultrasound technologies in the world.

(Of course, we keep looking for new technologies every day and if/when a better technology materialises we will be the first to provide it. However, we will never follow the latest ineffective gimmick, just because it’s good marketing to offer the latest hyped up - yet ineffective and/or unsafe treatment.)

Furthermore, over the last two decades we have developed advanced RF and cavitation treatment protocols in order to make the most of our technologies, for maximum results, naturally and safely.

And for even better, faster results, we now combine our RF/ultrasound treatments with high-power red/infrared light LED treatment.

Our radiofrequency/ultrasound/LED treatments are comfortable, pain-free, downtime-free, injection-free, 99.5%+ safe and always non-invasive.

(No unsafe and ineffective RF microneedling or HIFU and no safe but ineffective acoustic wave therapy, superficial RF (bipolar/tripolar/multipolar etc), low power RF/cavitation, electrical muscle stimulation, lymphatic massage, cupping, dry brushing and no ridiculous bum bum creams.)

Our focus is on honest, realistic, science-based treatment, combined with caring, professional service, with a smile.

We will be pleased to see you, assess your cellulite, skin laxity or fibrosis, listen to your story, discuss your case and offer you the best possible treatment.
