At Skin Body Soul Spa, we are pleased to offer various cellulite treatments in Ankeny, IA to target even the most stubborn dimpled skin. Take a look at some of the options available. The final decision on which one would work best for you will be determined during your initial consultation with our estheticians.
CELLFINA
Cellfina is a minimally invasive procedure performed by introducing a small laser tube under the skin’s surface. The objective of the laser is to heat the subcutaneous fat and cause it to melt, dramatically improving the appearance of cellulite. However, several treatments are often required to achieve optimal results.
ENDERMOLOGIE
Endermologie is a non-surgical method used to reduce cellulite. It uses rollers and suction to increase circulation and promote lymphatic drainage. By eliminating built-up fluids and toxins, your skin will appear smoother and tighter.
THERMAGE
Thermage is a cellulite treatment based on radio frequency to heat the surface of the skin. The result is a tightening and toning effect. It typically takes 30 minutes and can be somewhat uncomfortable since it operates at a high temperature. The applicator stimulates collagen, which tightens the fibers that run through the fatty layers underneath the skin.
THERMISMOOTH
ThermiSmooth is an exciting option to treat stubborn cellulite, and the FDA has approved it specifically to reduce cellulite. Each session is fast and painless and lasts a mere 20 to 30 minutes. Coconut oil is applied to the target area, and the appropriate applicator is used to massage the area in a circular motion. Like Thermage, ThermiSmooth also uses radiofrequency energy administered at the precise temperature. ThermiSmooth’s proprietary temperature-controlled hand-held device prevents overheating and ensures a consistent and accurate cellulite treatment in Ankeny, IA. Between 4 and 5 sessions are typically required, with results lasting 18 months. After that, an annual touchup session is necessary to preserve the results.
