Middle Age Doldrums – Cellulite

By Nasrin Mani, M.D.

A common sign that you are entering the time of your life considered “middle aged” is the development of cellulite. This condition impacts approximately 90% of women over the age of 30.

While cellulite is often mistaken for fat, it is actually an entirely different issue which gives your skin a lumpy and dimpled appearance. Even women who are very thin commonly experience this issue, which is primarily caused by fibrous bands that are less elastic than the rest of your skin.

For years, people have been trying unsuccessfully to improve the appearance of cellulite. Recently, several treatments have been developed which effectively help you achieve this goal. One of these treatments is Thermage CL.

The Thermage CL cellulite procedure is minimally invasive and can be completed in one treatment session. No surgery or injections are needed, and you will not experience any downtime. A special device delivers collagen-contracting heat to the deeper, fatty layers of your skin, tightening your skin and creating a more uniform level of elasticity. This helps reduce the dimpled skin appearance caused by cellulite.

At your initial consultation, Dr. Mani will discuss the Thermage CL procedure in detail and determine whether it is the right cellulite treatment to achieve your goals.
