Cellulite reduction

Cellulite reduction at Cosmetica Med Spa in Boca Raton uses Radiesse or Sculptra, injectable collagen stimulators that help firm the skin and soften the look of dimpling on the thighs and buttocks. Your provider chooses the product that's best for your skin.

What it helps with

• Dimpling on the thighs and buttocks
• Thin, crepey or loose skin over cellulite
• Uneven skin texture

How it works

Radiesse contains calcium hydroxylapatite, which stimulates collagen and provides some structural support. Sculptra contains poly-L-lactic acid, which gradually rebuilds collagen over several months. Stronger, thicker skin helps smooth the dimpled look of cellulite. Using these products for cellulite is considered off-label.

What to expect

The area is numbed, then the product is injected in a pattern across the treatment area. Sessions take about 45 to 60 minutes. Mild soreness, swelling or bruising are common for a few days, and you may be asked to massage the area at home.

Results

Improvement builds gradually over the months after treatment. Individual results vary.

Cost in Boca Raton

Cellulite treatment starts at $699. Pair it with a non-surgical BBL or hip dip correction for more contour.

Which is better for cellulite, Radiesse or Sculptra?

Both are collagen stimulators. Radiesse also gives some immediate support, while Sculptra works more gradually. Your provider will choose based on your skin and goals.

Is this FDA approved for cellulite?

Radiesse and Sculptra are FDA approved for other areas, so using them to improve the look of cellulite is considered off-label. Your provider will explain what to realistically expect.

How many sessions will I need?

Most people need a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart.

Will it get rid of cellulite completely?

No treatment eliminates cellulite for good. The goal is smoother-looking, firmer skin. Results vary and are gradual.
