SMOOTHSHAPES® System for Cellulite Reduction
How SMOOTHSHAPES® XV Works
Cellulite is a common skin condition known for its dimpled appearance caused by enlarged fat cells trapped in an inflexible network of fibrous septae located in the subcutaneous layers of skin. It affects 85-98% of post-pubertal women - 151 million women in the US alone. For years it was thought that cellulite occurred primarily due to obesity, excessive weight gain, lack of exercise and poor diet, but in actuality, this is not the case. The formation of cellulite is due to several genetic and physical factors that include hormones, vascular changes and connective tissue changes.
The SmoothShapes XV system effectively treats cellulite by improving the overall condition of enlarged fat cells and inflexible fibrous septae through a proprietary technology called Photomology® which is non-destructive. As illustrated by clicking on the links below, Photomology restores enlarged cells through a unique mechanism of action which combines dynamic laser and light energy with mechanical manipulation (vacuum and massage) to specifically target problem cellulite resulting in smoother looking skin.
