How does ultrasound cavitation reduce cellulite fat?
Ultrasound-induced cavitation is a phenomenon that occurs when high-intensity sound waves are used on certain tissues, such as human skin. When the intensity of the sound waves is strong enough, it can create small gas bubbles in the tissue. These bubbles can then quickly collapse, releasing energy in the form of heat and force. Research has shown that this process can reduce the amount of fat and shrink the size of fat cells in the skin.

Why do I still have cellulite after liposuction?
I have recently had liposuction and still have cellulite - how it this possible? It is possible simply because liposuction does not remove cellulite (hypodermal fat), it removes fat (subcutaneous fat), as it is actually supposed to do. Cellulite is superficial fat which is enmeshed into your skin and thereby it cannot be removed surgically (unless you want your skin to be removed). Liposuction, on the other hand, removes deeper fat (subcutaneous adipose tissue) which is located UNDER your skin and UNDER the cellulite layer (hypodermal adipose tissue). These are two different types of fat and two different depths…

Toxic air fryers, cellulite and skin aging
Air fryers are now the third most-used appliance in UK kitchens after toasters and microwave ovens - and well ahead of conventional ovens. Air fryers owe their popularity to their promise of making fried food but without the excess oil. Enjoying crispy fried food but without the oil? What not to like, right? Sure, air fried food is better than normal oil fried too - no question about that. But there are lot of things not to like about the air fryer craze...
How fried food causes cellulite, skin aging and loose skin
When to comes to cellulite, skin looseness and even overall health, fried food is one of the worst type of foods you can possibly put in your mouth.

What do you prefer to use for cellulite at LipoTherapeia: radiofrequency or cavitation ?
We typically use radiofrequency-only when cellulite is combined with skin laxity (most common); and ultrasound cavitation-only when skin laxity is not a concern (less common). In many cases we use a mix of those technologies. But in all cases we now combine RF and/or cavitation with high-power LED red/infrared light therapy, as it provenly enhances the results of RF and cavitation. However, every body is different and there are many considerations on whether to use…
The best cellulite treatment at home, with anti-cellulite massage, a real cellulite cream and 100+ lifestyle tips
Infrared and red light therapy after ultrasound cavitation treatment
At the clinic we use ultrasound cavitation for cellulite reduction, focused with great precision on the hypodermis and dermis, leaving the epidermis alone, as it should be for this application. And we use LED red light therapy, mainly in the infrared wavelength, to maximise the results of our deep-acting, high-power ultrasound cavitation treatments. It is now firmly established that infrared and red light therapy boosts mitochondrial function and thus cellular energy, and we have observed that when applied following cavitation treatment, it significantly improves the outcomes of cavitation for cellulite reduction…
