Cellulite removal and body circumference reduction

Treatment overview

Treatments for cellulite removal and body circumference reduction represent a sophisticated blend of medical technology and an aesthetic approach to body contouring. Their aim is not merely to enhance the appearance of the skin, but to act in depth on the structure of the subcutaneous fat tissue, the microcirculation and the overall quality of the skin.

Cellulite, often referred to as “orange peel skin”, is not solely an aesthetic concern — it is a complex condition involving the connective tissue, fat cells and circulation.

Did you know: it is estimated that more than 80% of women experience some form of cellulite, regardless of body weight, which makes these treatments among the most sought-after in aesthetic medicine worldwide.


How is the treatment performed?

The treatments are based on a combination of advanced technologies that target:

  • the breakdown of fat cells
  • improved lymphatic drainage and circulation
  • firming and regeneration of the skin

Depending on individual needs, a variety of methods may be used, such as:

  • radiofrequency
  • vacuum and mechanical techniques
  • deep tissue heating

The treatment is comfortable and is often described as a sensation of warmth combined with a gentle massage.


Who is the treatment for?

The treatment is ideal for those who:

  • have visible cellulite (regardless of body type)
  • wish to reduce localised fat deposits
  • want to improve skin tone and firmness
  • would like to refine the body’s contours in a natural way

It is important to note that this treatment is not a substitute for weight loss; rather, it works in a targeted manner on problem areas.


Our approach

Every treatment at our clinic begins with a thorough analysis of the body and skin, taking into account lifestyle, hormonal factors and the patient’s individual goals.

Our highly experienced dermatology specialists treat each patient on an individual basis, designing personalised protocols that combine multiple technologies to achieve the very best results.

Through ongoing follow-up and expert guidance, we ensure not only visible results, but also a sense of confidence, trust and complete dedication to every patient in our care.


Preparing for the treatment

Preparation is straightforward but important:

  • an increased intake of fluids prior to the treatment is recommended
  • avoid heavy meals immediately before your appointment
  • the skin should be clean, with no creams or oils applied

Anaesthetic cream is not required.


Recovery and precautions

No downtime is required following the treatment.

Mild reactions may occur, including:

  • slight redness
  • a feeling of warmth or sensitivity

Recommendations:

  • increase your water intake after the treatment
  • avoid intense physical exertion on the day of the treatment
  • maintain regular physical activity to enjoy longer-lasting results

When are results visible?

The first results may be visible after just a few sessions, while optimal outcomes are achieved through a course of treatments.

Over time, you can expect:

  • a visible reduction in cellulite
  • improved skin texture
  • a reduction in the circumference of the treated areas

Treatment combinations

For maximum results, we recommend combining the treatment with:

  • laser treatments to enhance skin quality and firmness
  • medical treatments that stimulate collagen
  • lymphatic drainage treatments

By combining different approaches, a synergistic effect is achieved — simultaneously acting on fat cells, circulation and skin tone.

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions

    Here you’ll find answers to the questions our clients most often ask about our services and treatments.

    + Why does cellulite occur and why is it so difficult to remove?
    Cellulite arises as a result of a combination of factors — the structure of the fat tissue, circulation, the lymphatic system and skin elasticity. It is precisely because of this complexity that there is no single solution; a combined approach is required.
    + Which treatments are most effective for reducing cellulite and circumference?
    The best results are achieved through a combination of technologies such as Icoone Laser and Morpheus8 Body, complemented by additional biostimulation (e.g. Sunekos Body). It is this synergy that delivers visible and long-lasting results.
    + When are results visible?
    A feeling of lightness and reduced swelling often occurs very quickly, while aesthetic results develop over several weeks and across a course of treatments.
    + How many treatments are needed?
    A structured course of treatments is most often recommended, tailored to your individual needs and goals.
    + Is it possible to remove cellulite permanently?
    Cellulite can be significantly reduced and kept under control; however, owing to its nature, ongoing maintenance of results is important.
    + Are the treatments painful?
    The majority of treatments are comfortable or only minimally uncomfortable, with a strong focus on patient safety and comfort.
    + Why is an individual approach so important when treating cellulite?
    Because the cause and structure of cellulite vary from person to person — which is precisely why a personalised plan delivers the very best results.
