Cellulite Treatment & Cellulite Removal
Cellulite affects up to 90% of women at some point in their lives, and it is not a reflection of weight, fitness, or health. The characteristic dimpled, 'orange peel' texture occurs when fat deposits push through the connective tissue beneath the skin, creating an uneven surface. Despite being completely natural, cellulite is one of the most common body confidence concerns. At Skin Health Practice in Hounslow, we offer professional cellulite treatments using advanced radiofrequency and body contouring technology to smooth and refine the skin's appearance where cellulite is most prominent.

What Causes Cellulite?
Cellulite forms due to the structural arrangement of fat cells and connective tissue bands (septae) beneath the skin. In women, these connective bands run vertically, creating chambers that can bulge when fat cells expand, producing the characteristic dimpled appearance. Genetics, hormones, age, skin thickness, and circulation all play a role in its development. Cellulite commonly appears on the thighs, buttocks, hips, and abdomen. Importantly, cellulite is not caused by excess weight — it affects people of all body types and fitness levels.
How Our Cellulite Treatments Work
Our cellulite treatments use radiofrequency energy to address the condition at multiple levels. The thermal energy heats the dermal and subdermal layers, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin for a smoother surface appearance. It also improves local blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, helping to reduce fluid retention that can accentuate cellulite. For enhanced results, we can combine radiofrequency treatment with body contouring technology to reduce localised fat deposits that contribute to the dimpled appearance, creating a more comprehensive smoothing effect.
Realistic Expectations and Treatment Plans
It is important to set realistic expectations with cellulite treatment. While professional treatments can significantly improve the appearance of cellulite, no treatment can eliminate it entirely. Most clients see a noticeable smoothing and tightening of the treated areas over a course of 6 to 8 sessions. Results are best maintained with periodic maintenance treatments, a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, and adequate hydration. We design your treatment plan around the severity and location of your cellulite, your goals, and your lifestyle.
