Improve Dimpled Skin with Cellulite Treatment in San Diego
What can be achieved:
Targeted Treatment Options
Cellulite reduction addresses the underlying structural factors that contribute to dimpling, including fibrous septae, localized fat deposits, and skin laxity. Treatment selection is based on the severity of cellulite, the areas involved, and individual goals.
Advanced Laser Technology
Cellulite laser treatment options are designed to stimulate collagen, elastic fiber, and hyaluronic acid production, supporting improved skin firmness and texture while gradually smoothing the appearance of the skin’s surface.
Non-Invasive Solutions
Many cellulite treatments involve little to no downtime, making them well suited for patients seeking visible improvement without significant interruption to daily activities.
Minimally Invasive Techniques
Procedures such as subcision directly release the fibrous bands responsible for cellulite dimpling, often delivering noticeable improvement after a single session.
Custom Combination Plans
For moderate to advanced cellulite concerns, combining multiple cellulite treatments can provide the most effective and natural-looking results.
