Regain your confidence with BTL Unison, the only treatment out there that targets all 5 causes of cellulite and gives your skin a smoother, dimple-free appearance.
What Is Cellulite And What Causes It?
Cellulite is pockets of fat found just below the skin, creating a lumpy and dimpled look, texture and consistency. They are caused by alterations in the skin, as a result of damaged collagen and elastin fibers, poor blood supply, enlarged fat cell chambers and the accumulation of metabolic waste. Genetics, your diet, age, hormones, and lifestyle factors also play a part. For example, the hormones estrogen and cortisol have been linked to cellulite development, as well as insulin, noradrenaline, and prolactin.
Cellulite affects women more so than men. In fact, 90% of women are expected to have to deal with it at some point in their lives.
What Is BTL Unison And How Does It Work?
BTL Unison combines radiofrequency and cellutone technology to treat both the cause and symptoms of cellulite. Radiofrequency reshapes the collagen found deep in the skin, by destroying fat cells and stimulating the production of stronger collagen, whereas cellutone technology increases blood flow, supply and rids the body of metabolic waste. It also restores connective tissues. This tightens, tones and strengthens your skin from within.
Patients usually require 4 treatments, scheduled 1 week apart. The procedure is quick, usually lasting around 20 minutes – 1 hour, depending on the treated area. Improvements are seen straight away and will continue following successive treatments. It takes around 12 weeks for the full effect, as new collagen is being produced.
Fritz et al., used BTL Unison in their study on cellulite treatment for women and found it reduced cellulite in 93% of cases, with high patient satisfaction. They concluded that the treatment is ‘effective and safe for treating cellulite’.
