Carboxytherapy

Advanced Dermatology Skin and Cosmetic Laser Center in Milford, PA announces that they now offer several new procedures for use in melting and removing fat, firming skin and improving the appearance of cellulite.

A third procedure that can help to reduce cellulite is called Carboxytherapy. Carbon dioxide breaks down fat cells and increases circulation and blood flow when injected under the skin where cellulite is placed. This releases fluids that are trapped in these areas, resulting in less fat and firmer skin.
Dr. Buckley says “patients can experience a light tingling sensation near the treatment site which disappears almost immediately and the surrounding area may feel warmer for up to 30 minutes due to increased circulation.”
Each session lasts about 15 minutes and approximately 20 sessions are needed to effectively reduce cellulite. The best results are seen when the patient receives the treatments every other day.

Thermage

Advanced Dermatology Skin and Cosmetic Laser Center in Milford, PA announces that they now offer several new procedures for use in melting and removing fat, firming skin and improving the appearance of cellulite.

A great way to supplement the other three procedures - ProLipo, Mesotherapy and Carboxytherapy - to produce even better results is the Thermage skin tightening procedure. Thermage uses radio frequency waves to stimulate collagen production, which serves to tighten the skin, thus making the cellulite less visible. You will continue to see improvement for at least six to nine months after the treatment. This procedure, when paired with one of the treatments mentioned above, maximizes the overall effectiveness to produce the best results in cellulite reduction.

Mesotherapy

Advanced Dermatology Skin and Cosmetic Laser Center in Milford, PA announces that they now offer several new procedures for use in melting and removing fat, firming skin and improving the appearance of cellulite.

Mesotherapy is a technique used to administer medications and vitamins to a specific area of the body. This is done by micro-injections into the mesoderm, which is the layer just beneath the skin, in which cellulite lays.
Dr. Buckley says “Mesotherapy may reduce the appearance of cellulite by dissolving and shrinking fat cells and improving blood flow to the area. Cellulite is actually localized pockets of fat, so Mesotherapy helps by breaking down existing fat cells.” In addition, Mesotherapy serves to dissolve the connective tissues between which fat cells protrude to produce the "cottage cheese" appearance or cellulite. You can resume normal activities immediately following your Mesotherapy treatment.

The ProLipo procedure serves to sculpt and tone and is ideal for the patient who has thick arms, bra bulge, a paunch or rolls in the tummy area, saddle bags or thigh problems, jowls or a double chin that they want to reduce.

  • minimal downtime and recovery takes only a couple of days
  • tightens skin through its collagen remodeling and neoformation effects
The coolness:
