Understanding Cellulite
Cellulite is more than just fat. It’s also a buildup of toxins that gather in the fat cells because the body doesn’t understand how to dispose of them. As time goes on, the skin becomes less efficient in eliminating toxins, the process of burning fat slows down tremendously, and a loss of firmness occurs, along with a dimpled ‘orange peel’ appearance.
STAGE 1: Fat Storage Healthy cells begin to fill with fat which then transform into adiposities (fat cells).
STAGE 2: Fatty Deposit Buildup The lipolysis process of converting fat cells into energy decreases, resulting in an increase in the size and number of these cells.
STAGE 3: Toxic Buildup As the size and number of fat cells increase and compact, micro-circulation slows; therefore, lymphatic drainage is not as efficient at eliminating toxins.
STAGE 4: Loss of Elasticity Connective tissue becomes distorted, resulting in loss of elasticity, firmness and a dimpled “orange peel” appearance.
The difference in Cellulite between Men and Women
In a woman’s body, these fibrous bands are vertical, which allows for an abundant storage of fat plus causes the skin to be pulled inward toward the body’s interior. The fat that surrounds these fibers pushes up through the bands, which results in the puckering and bulging we identify as cellulite.
The connective tissue in men’s bodies develops in a different, diagonal pattern, which not only stores smaller quantities of fat but blocks the fat from protruding. As such, it is uncommon for men to exhibit cellulite.

Cellulite and Lipo Dissolve FAQ’s
What areas of the body can be treated?
Danik MedSpa offers treatments for the most common areas where cellulite is found: thighs (front, back & sides), stomach, arms, and buttocks.
How many treatments will I need?
It depends on your unique situation and the stage of your cellulite condition. During your initial consultation we will discuss all alternatives available.
How long does each treatment take?
Treatments last from 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the size of the area.
Is there any downtime?
No. Unlike invasive or surgical procedures, you can return to regular activities (including exercising) immediately following treatment and there is no special care after treatment. Some people may exhibit a temporary redness and/or swelling, but this usually resolves within several hours. Drinking plenty of water before and after the procedure is recommended to help flush toxins and mobilize extra fat that is heated during the treatment process. In addition, good overall body hydration will generally lead to better results, as RF energy works by rapidly moving water molecules to heat the intended area.
When will I see results?
Most individuals will begin to see results following the second week of treatments, as the area looks smoother and firmer. Additional observable tightening and contouring improvements appear gradually over a two to six month time period, as new collagen develops and toxins are removed.
Will it help me lose weight?
Cellulite Treatments are not intended for weight loss. Instead, treatments are designed to reduce the appearance of cellulite and tighten & smooth skin texture. Some patients also experience a reduction in circumference for the treated area, as well as an improvement in any 'orange peel' appearing skin. Pictures before and after treatments will help you see the results of your treatments, and area requirement of the treatment process.
Does liposuction reduce cellulite?
Liposuction does not focus on the removal of fat from the fat layers where cellulite exists. While some people may experience a temporary improvement in cellulite (depending upon their surgeon), it will reappear. In fact, because liposuction may increase skin laxity, cellulite can in some cases be more apparent than before.
What are the main factors in the formation of Cellulite?
The simple fact of being woman.
Hormonal factors: play a dominant role in the formation of cellulite. Estrogen is the most important hormone. It seems to initiate and aggravate cellulite. Other hormones including insulin, the catecholamine adrenaline and noradrenalin, thyroid hormones, and prolactin have all been shown to participate in the development of cellulite.
Predisposing factors: Several genetic factors have been shown to be necessary for cellulite to develop. Gender, race, biotype, a hormone receptor allele that determines the receptor number and sensitivity, distribution of subcutaneous fat, and predisposition to circulatory insufficiency have all been shown to contribute to cellulite.
Diet: has been shown to affect the development and amount of cellulite. Excessive amounts of fat, carbohydrates, salt, or too little fiber can all contribute to increased cellulite.
Lifestyle: Smoking, lack of exercise, fatty/starchy foods, and sitting or standing in a single position for long periods have all been correlated with an increase in cellulite. A high stress lifestyle will cause an increase in the catecholamine hormones.
Fashion: Within the last 40-50 years women went from loose underwear around the thighs to tight underwear going across the middle of the buttock. Underwear that has tight elastic across the buttock limits blood flow, encouraging cellulite to form. Wearing thongs, boy shorts, or sleeping naked can reduce the impact underwear plays on cellulite's development.
Does birth-control pill provoke Cellulite?
Yes, the hormones of the birth-control pill provoke alterations similar to the one of the pregnancy, although in a very smaller level.
Are there any side effects?
No, however the treated area may feel warm. You may also experience a mild, temporary redness or minor swelling that disappears within 24 hours.
Are there any conflicts with other medications or illnesses?
Yes. Some of the medical conditions which could preclude a prospective patient from receiving treatment are listed below. Any questions you may have about these, or any other health issues, can be discussed in detail with your complimentary consultation.
• Implanted devices with electronics (defibrillator, pacemaker,medication-release device)
• Large dental metallic implants
