The majority of women will have cellulite in their lifetime– in fact, about 9 out of 10. That means that while your intense workouts and healthy eating habits are beneficial for your fitness and overall wellbeing it doesn’t do much to reduce cellulite. If you really want to diminish cellulite, you need to understand what’s behind it. Cellulite isn’t fat, it isn’t caused by what you eat, and it doesn’t mean that you aren’t exercising enough. There are 3 things that together contribute to those signature dimples. 1. The skin thins as we age and lose collagen. 2. Fat cells enlarge and push against the skin. 3. The fibrous bands under the skin thicken and cause tension, with the fat cells bulging through, creating cellulite. Until very recently, only surgical and invasive options could treat the structural cause of cellulite under the skin. Now with the release of QWO, patients together with our aesthetic specialists at Flawless can choose the first and only FDA-approved injectable that treats cellulite in the butts of adult women. And, unlike other injectables on the market, studies show QWO lasting anywhere from 1-5 years. While long-term studies of QWO are still ongoing, all indications are that QWO can last for years with no reduction in effects once all three treatments are completed.
