Simply speaking, there are connective tissue bands that extend from the deeper tissues to the top layers of the skin.
When these bands are under tension they pull down on the skin, causing puckering. Some describe is as “orange skin” or a “cottage cheeses” appearance. While many associate being overweight with cellulite, women of normal weight can also show signs and symptoms of cellulite.
At our office in Santa Rosa cellulite can be improved, although it can’t be permanently cured.
Sometimes it takes a combination of lotions and non-surgical treatments. Liposuction, contrary to popular opinion, does not treat or cure cellulite. There are a number of skin tightening procedures that can help reduce the appearance of cellulite. Together we can map out the best course of action after doing an examination and reviewing your concerns.
If you’re ready to do something about your cellulite, schedule a consultation with a member of our team of specialists.
