Understanding Cellulite Treatment

Cellulite buildups are a natural feature of aging skin. That doesn't mean they're attractive.

Cellulite is essentially fat within your skin that has become locked into deposits that show up as the "cottage cheese" effect we all recognize. Unlike other fats in your body, cellulite can't be dieted or exercised away. Visible cellulite deposits have more to do with your genetics and your age than with any dietary or exercise issues. It's there whether you like it or not, and only a cellulite treatment process can bring your skin back to the smooth contours of youth.

American Laser Centers' cellulite treatment process, AmeriSmooth, does what other cellulite treatment protocols can't by combining multiple types of energies to break down and re-contour cellulite where it lives, deep under the surface of your skin. As opposed to topical creams or surgical procedures, AmeriSmooth is a comfortable, safe and effective cellulite treatment process. By combining penetrating infrared and radio energies to make the cellulite layer receptive to the specially designed rollers that smooth out the skins surface of the treatment head, the AmeriSmooth process succeeds in re-contouring cellulite under the surface of your skin - a process that formerly required painful and invasive surgery.

Unlike surgery, most AmeriSmooth cellulite treatment recipients report that the treatment is actually quite a pleasant experience, similar to a massage. The deep massage action from the treatment head rollers and the warmth from the infrared energy are rarely strong enough to cause discomfort, although some patients report an initial pinching from the rollers that can be eliminated immediately through a simple adjustment.
