Fat & Cellulite Reduction

Finally, effective cellulite treatment

Cellulite affects nearly all adult women of all races. Characterised by a dimpled 'cottage cheese' look, cellulite appears most commonly in the thighs and buttocks. While it does not represent a health threat, cellulite is aesthetically unappealing, and a source of embarrassment to many women. Despite its prevalence, and repeated attempts to find a surefire treatment, no solution has adequately countered cellulite. Until now.

Accent radiofrequency therapy is able to change the shape of fat cells and shrink and remodel the connective tissue that forms this unsightly condition. This technology presents a non-invasive, effective and long-lasting way to reduce the appearance of cellulite.

For a firmer, more proportioned body

You may be dissatisfied with the appearance of your body. Although you may watch your weight and work out, you do not have the shape you desire. Isolated pockets of fat have collected in different places, giving you a bulky look. Possibly due to heredity, this accumulated fat can remain unaffected by both diet and exercise.
Accent radiofrequency can help reduce the unsightly bulges that make you uncomfortable in your clothes. Gently reshaping your body, Accent non-invasively improves your body's contours, even reducing excess inches. The procedure gives you a sculpted look - without incisions, pain or downtime.

How does Accent work?

Accent radiofrequency employs three mechanisms to improve cellulite symptoms and reduce fat. It applies deep dermal heating to the fat bundles (a) to bring about new collagen formation and skin remodeling. Stimulating enhanced blood circulation, the procedure also helps drain trapped fatty deposits and toxins. Finally, its thermal activity serves to shrink fat cells (b).

Where can Accent's Radiofrequency treatment be used?

Accent can be used to improve contours anywhere on the body. It is frequently performed to give the abdomen a flatter and smoother profile, to slim the hips and thighs and firm the upper arms.

What is cellulite?

The body's muscles are wrapped in a padding of fatty connective tissue. The fatty cells of the padding, bathed in a liquid medium, are held in place by a network of fibers, nourished and cleansed by body fluids. When this process is slowed down, the tissue is flooded with waste materials that thicken into a gelatin-like substance, forming pockets which migrate closer to the skin's surface. The visible result: a puckered 'orange peel' effect on the skin's surface.

What causes cellulite?

Cellulite is far more common among women than men, which indicates that hormonal differences play a major role in its formation. While cellulite tends to appear in parts of the body where excess fat is deposited, it is widespread among both thin and overweight women.

Treatment - what to expect

During Accent radiofrequency treatment, your practitioner will apply the treatment tip to your skin, precisely heating the skin's inner layer (dermis), while its outer layer (epidermis) is continually cooled. Depending on the size of the treated area, treatment may take from about 20-50 minutes. You should see a gradual improvement.

Following treatment, you can immediately resume all routine activities. You may notice slight temporary redness, which should disappear in less than 24 hours. While Accent radiofrequency has shown to be safe, effective and long-lasting, maintenance treatment may extend and improve upon results.

Does it hurt?

While pain tolerance is individual, most people tolerate Accent radiofrequency treatment well, and have little or no discomfort. Clients often describe the sensation as a warm massage.

The Accent Advantage

The prevalence of cellulite has led to hundreds of purported treatments, including topical solutions, massage-based techniques and surgical procedures, such as liposuction - most with less than optimal results. Topical treatments do not penetrate the skin, and can render only temporary and superficial effects. Obviously invasive, surgery is accompanied by risk, relatively long recovery and doubtful results. 

The Accent radiofrequency system represents the newest method in cellulite treatment. By selective dermal heating that stimulates the production of new collagen, Accent has been shown to improve skin surface texture.

Accent radiofrequency cellulite treatment is effective, non invasive, and an easy, comfortable treatment for the patient.
