As we age, it’s very common to get cellulite on our lower bodies. Cellulite is difficult to get rid of and can seriously impact our confidence. Fortunately, QWO can target cellulite and give you back your smooth, youthful skin. This treatment is the only FDA-approved injectable of its kind. At Tarola Plastic Surgery in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, we specialize in this new, revolutionary treatment.
What Is QWO?
This treatment is an effective, long-lasting alternative to topical cellulite treatments, and it’s fully approved by the Food and Drug Administration. As it addresses the underlying roots of cellulite; specifically bands of tissue right under the skin, it’s better at eliminating it for good. As it’s minimally invasive, there’s very little downtime and it can work wonders for your buttocks and lower body.
How Does It Work?
Since the treatment is minimally invasive, patients don’t need anesthesia and there’s no downtime. In fact, most patients compare the treatment to Botox injections. This makes QWO a true game-changer because other cellulite-reduction treatments generally require some form of surgery. As an added bonus, the results are long-lasting and dramatic.
General Treatment Schedule
Everyone is different, so our team will brief you on all of your options prior to your treatment day. Generally speaking, people need three treatment sessions over the course of three months. The results can last for over a year. Each treatment session takes roughly half an hour, so you can easily fit them into your daily routine. For the best results, it’s important to stick with the treatment schedule once you’ve started.
Treatment Benefits
QWO’s primary benefit is that it’s non-surgical, which means that you don’t need any recovery time after your session. It’s highly convenient and virtually painless, and the sessions are short so you can even fit them in on a lunch break. It’s also highly effective. This treatment has been researched and vetted by the FDA and proven to reduce or eliminate cellulite.
The results are long-lasting and permanent in most cases.
Who Is This Treatment Right For?
Keeping Your Results for the Long Term
Although QWO is effective at treating existing cellulite, additional cellulite can crop up as you age. To counteract this, it’s a good idea to take some steps to ensure that you are cellulite-free for the long term.
Get Massages
Massages stimulate blood flow and can help skin look firm and smooth. Plus, they feel great! You can go to a professional studio, or give yourself a massage at home after your shower. It only takes a few minutes and it can make a substantial difference in your skin quality over time. Scheduling regular professional massages is a great way to embrace self-care and target cellulite at the same time.
Healthy Diet
We are what we eat. If cellulite is a concern for you, upgrade your diet to include more fruits and vegetables, as well as fiber-rich whole grains. Overly processed foods and beverages with “empty calories”, like sodas and sugary drinks, can lead to more cellulite in the long run. Also, improving your diet can make your skin look more luminous. You’ll also have more energy, maintain a healthier weight, and experience enhanced well-being.
Stop Smoking
Smoking seriously affects your blood flow, and quitting cigarettes can help you fight cellulite. There’s also a whole host of health benefits associated with quitting smoking. There are plenty of resources online, and support groups that you can join. Make a plan and set a quit date. your body will certainly thank you in the long run.
Use Lotions That Contain Retinol
Retinol isn’t just for your face! Plenty of body creams include retinol these days because it helps to firm up your skin. Look for a body cream with three percent retinol and work it into your daily routine. Over time, your skin should look firmer and dewier, plus many retinol lotions are highly moisturizing, so your skin will be hydrated and luminous.
