Cellulite
what is cellulite?
Cellulite is dimpling or depression of the skin typically on the buttocks or thighs. Cellulite is a very common condition, affecting nearly 90 percent of women and can unfortunately impact the ability to feel truly confident. There are many creams and treatments out there that promise to treat this condition, however many treatments are ineffective or short acting. Intentional Wellness Center is proud to offer the only FDA approved treatment for cellulite resulting in a meaningful and long lasting reduction in cellulite.
Causes
Cellulite is caused by the fibrous bands that tether your skin to the structures below. These bands are called septa. Some septa are good and you want them to maintain the connective shape underneath the skin, but others stiffen or shrink over time and lead to the dimples on the surface of the skin called cellulite. Weight gain and an inactive lifestyle can increase your chances of having cellulite or it being more noticeable. But genetics is likely the biggest factor in whether someone develops cellulite.
