The cause of orange peel skin
Cellulite is a multifactorial condition caused by alterations in the venous and lymphatic system, which slow down blood flow and lead to water retention. At the same time, fat cells begin to change in size and composition, becoming swollen.
At the Levante Laser Studio Aesthetic Medicine Centre, based in La Spezia, we will explain in detail how we treat cellulite.
THE CAUSES BEHIND THE ONSET OF CELLULITE
The causes behind the onset of cellulite include:
- genetic – increased hormonal activity, fragile capillaries, and poor circulation
- hormonal – excessive oestrogen activity
- vascular – slowed blood circulation (a stagnation that favours the onset of cellulite)
- poor dietary and behavioural habits – diet rich in fats and sugars, excessive alcohol consumption, inappropriate footwear, overly tight clothing, etc.
HOW WE TREAT CELLULITE IN OUR MEDICAL STUDIO
After a thorough consultation and careful evaluation of the type and stage of cellulite, the most suitable procedure is chosen among the following:
ONDA COOLWAVES
The Onda Coolwaves technology penetrates deeply, targeting the connective tissue responsible for the typical orange peel appearance.
This treatment can be carried out safely all year round.
CARBOXYTHERAPY
This technique involves the subcutaneous administration of medical carbon dioxide to promote increased oxygenation of the tissues, improve blood circulation, and stimulate cellular metabolism.
This process improves cellulite and makes the skin firmer and more elastic.
LAXITY
The Onda Coolwaves electromedical device produces an immediate shrinkage effect on the dermis by stimulating the production of new collagen.
