Concern guide

Cellulite

Dimpling is a normal skin characteristic created by the interaction of connective fibres, underlying fat, skin quality and sometimes fluid retention.

Understanding

About this concern

Cellulite gives the skin a rippled or dimpled finish, most often across the thighs and buttocks. It is extremely common, appears at many different body sizes and is not evidence that somebody is unfit or unhealthy.

The texture comes from several layers working together, including the skin surface, fibrous bands and fatty tissue beneath it. Treatment therefore aims to make dimpling less visible; complete or permanent removal is not a realistic promise.

Treatments for cellulite

A consultation is the starting point: the most appropriate option depends on what is creating the concern, your goals and your medical history.

Cellulite Reduction

Cellulite Reduction

From £65

Freezing Fat’s cellulite treatment is directed at visible dimpling and uneven texture, particularly on the thighs and buttocks. Its purpose is to smooth the appearance of the surface rather than reduce body weight or guarantee that cellulite disappears.

Why consider itThe most focused choice when texture and dimples matter more than the size of the area.

Ultrasound Cavitation

Ultrasound Cavitation

From £65

Where cellulite sits alongside softer local fullness, ultrasound cavitation may be considered as part of a contouring plan. It targets volume rather than the connective bands responsible for dimpling, so expectations need to reflect that difference.

Why consider itPotentially useful when local fullness accompanies cellulite, but not a direct cure for the texture itself.

Before you decide

Things to consider

The appearance of cellulite varies with posture, lighting, hormones, hydration and weight, so progress is best judged with consistent photographs. A course of treatment and occasional maintenance may be suggested. Sudden redness, heat, pain or swelling is not typical dimpling and should be reviewed by a healthcare professional.

Common questions

Cellulite FAQs

Are cellulite and excess body fat the same thing?

No. Cellulite refers to a dimpled texture caused by how skin, connective bands and the fatty layer interact; it can appear without excess weight.

Will treatment get rid of cellulite for good?

No treatment can promise permanent removal. The realistic objective is a visible improvement that may need maintenance.

Can slim or active people have cellulite?

Yes. Dimpling is widespread among people of different weights, shapes and fitness levels.
