The Easiest Cellulite Treatment Ever
- Posted on: Feb 15 2024
While diet and exercise help some, uneven texture and dimples from cellulite are found even in the most athletic people. Cellulite isn’t a fat issue. Instead, it’s a skin issue. Liposuction can actually worsen it, as cellulite seems to form when there isn’t much support under your skin. Removing fat decreases the already missing support and can make cellulite worse.
If you are looking for a treatment to get rid of cellulite for good, then you may consider QWO.
What Is Cellulite?
Contrary to popular belief, cellulite is not fat. It is a skin condition that results in an uneven, lumpy texture. It can affect men and women, though it is more common in women than men. You can develop cellulite on your thighs, buttocks, or abdomen.
Cellulite is caused by fibrous connective bands under your skin tightening irregularly; this can be due to weight gain, hormonal changes, or aging. The exact cause of cellulite remains as much of a mystery to patients as it does to surgeons. The good news is that because it is such a prevalent condition, experts have developed innovative treatments to reduce or eliminate it altogether.
What Is QWO for Cellulite?
QWO is an FDA-approved injectable that treats cellulite. It uses enzymes to break the fibrous septae or bands that create the cellulite. Once the fibrous bands are broken, they can no longer pull on your skin and cause dimpling.
QWO uses enzymatic subcision and remodeling (ESR™) via QWO injections. The two enzymes degrade collagen molecules. The injectible stimulates the initiation of ESR, which dissolves the bands.
This medication releases the fibrous bands and stimulates new collagen molecules that can help keep your skin looking and feeling smooth. Dr. Shridharani injects QWO through tiny needles right into the cellulite dimples.
Downtime and Results After QWO
You may have some bruising for one to two weeks after QWO. Some patients have reported mild discomfort that was treated with over-the-counter painkillers, such as Ibuprofen. You may also have mild to moderate swelling for the first few days after treatment with QWO.
You should see results within three weeks and should continue seeing an improvement. Some people may need an additional treatment.
