Cellulite Treatment in Santa Barbara, CA
No matter how hard we work to maintain a sculpted and toned physique, we may still deal with cellulite. In Santa Barbara, Santa Maria, and Ventura, CA, along with the surrounding communities, Sara Yegiyants, MD, FACS, a triple board-certified plastic surgeon, uses Cellfina® for cellulite reduction on people who want smoother, more contoured legs.
What is Cellulite Reduction?
There are many people in excellent physical shape that still deal with cellulite. Medically speaking, cellulite is the result of fibrous connective tissue caught within subcutaneous fat causing dimpling primarily in the hip and thigh area. It is often referred to as “cottage cheese” legs. The dimpling comes from the bands contracting and pulling down on the skin. It creates that rippled appearance.
Cellfina® is a state of the art system FDA-approved for cellulite reduction on areas of the body including the buttocks, thighs, hips and other areas where cellulite can develop. When applied, Cellfina® targets the cellulite and releases the fibrous bands pulling the skin down to create a lumpy appearance.
Why Choose Cellfina®?
Cellfina® is the latest breakthrough in cellulite reduction. It targets the fibrous tissue that causes the skin to look dimply and diminishes it leaving the areas smooth and toned.
