Cellulite is an extremely common condition and is seen in 9 out of 10 adult females. Although completely harmless, the appearance can be somewhat displeasing. Cellulite shows up as lumpy, dimpled flesh, typically on the thighs, hips, buttocks, and abdomen.

Cellulite is caused by structures called fibrous bands which are located under the skin’s surface. These bands pull the skin inward, and as a result, fat is trapped between them, giving the skin a “dimpled” appearance. Unfortunately, since the result of cellulite is caused by a change in the skin’s architecture, its severity is not improved by diet or exercise.

The best treatment for cellulite reduction is the mechanical or chemical relaxing of these bands in combination with the addition of volume to the skin. Once the bands are relaxed, the tension on the skin’s surface is decreased, helping to reduce the appearance of dimples. In addition, a volumized, thicker skin will resist further downward tension and help the skin to appear smoother.

Sculptra Injections

Formulated with a biocompatible synthetic substance renowned for stimulating collagen production, Sculptra shares a lineage with absorbable sutures, boasting a remarkable safety profile over the past five decades. Distinguishing itself from conventional fillers, Sculptra prioritizes collagen stimulation over immediate volumization. Consequently, while results may unfold gradually, they can be substantial in diminishing the visible signs of cellulite.

Hyperdiluted Radiesse® Injections

Radiesse is an injectable filler that contains microspheres made up of phosphate and calcium. These two substances are naturally found in the body and help stimulate your skin’s own collagen production. Radiesse immediately fills out areas that lack volume, and as time goes on, the microspheres encourage the body to generate new collagen. Depending on the person, Radiesse can last for 1 to 2 years. It’s a great treatment for volume loss in various parts of the face like the temples, jawlines and for lifting the jowls by treating the lateral cheek bone. Radiesse is Dr. Khorasani’s filler of choice for general lifting purposes.

Hyperdiluted Radiesse with lidocaine and saline may also be used for global skin texture enhancement and rejuvenation. The extent of dilution of Radiesse with lidocaine and saline depends on the area to be treated. For instance, a 1:1 ratio is used for the dimples from cellulite on the buttocks and a 1:4 ratio may be used for improvement of skin texture of the entire buttocks. The most popular areas we treat with Hyperdiluted Radiesse include:

- Age related lateral neck lines
- Décolletage (orange peel looking chest skin)
- Sagging buttocks skin
- Cellulite dimples on the thighs and buttocks
- Crepey skin around the knee and elbows
- Excessive skin laxity of the abdomen
- Post pregnancy abdomen
