Cellulite treatments

Cellulite affects most women; even those who are slim are often afflicted with it. It usually appears on the hips, thighs and buttocks, and looks lumpy, dimpled and generally unattractive.
 
The Woodbridge Dermatology and Laser Centre offers a variety of non-surgical anti-cellulite and skin firming treatments that will help your thighs, derriere and other problem areas feel smooth and look better. We can help with everything from cellulite to loose, flabby upper arms and inner thighs.
 
Mesotherapy
An effective therapy in which medications, homeopathic products and vitamins are microinjected in to the middle layer of skin (the mesoderm) to combat cellulite. Nutrients get deep into your skin in a way that’s not possible with creams or supplements – they replenish your skin at the source, creating healthy, firm, smooth skin.
 
Acthyderm®
Acthyderm® delivers the same ingredients as mesotherapy, but instead of injections, an electric current is used. Acthyderm® works on the face and body to tighten loose skin, reduce cellulite, and rejuvenate the skin. It is a transdermal electrodiffusion system that delivers active fat- and cellulite-reducing ingredients down to the deepest layers of the skin. It is safe, painless, does not damage the areas being treated and works well with most cosmetic techniques including microdermabrasion.

Developed by Microlab Biomedicals of Naples, Italy in 2000, Acthyderm® is now used throughout Europe and North America by doctors and spas to rejuvenate the skin without surgery or injections. Only physicians have the medical grade Acthyderm® system and can use prescription medications to enhance the effects of each treatment. 

 
Lipotherapy
Also known as body sculpting or lipodissolve, lipotherapy works well to combat advanced cellulite. Fat-dissolving substances are injected into localized fat deposits and cellulite, which slowly dissolves the fat and allows the body to naturally eliminate the residue.
