Cellulite (oedematous–fibrosclerotic panniculopathy) is not just a cosmetic concern: it involves the microcirculation, subcutaneous fat and dermal structure, causing orange peel skin, surface irregularities and sometimes a feeling of heaviness or swelling. It typically affects thighs, buttocks, hips and abdomen, and may present as oedematous (fluid retention), fibrous (nodules, uneven surface) or sclerotic (deep dimples, occasionally painful). Hormonal factors, genetic predisposition, sedentary lifestyle, diet and smoking can all worsen its appearance.
Treatment options
At MAVIT, cellulite management starts with a morphological and functional assessment of the affected areas. The treatment plan may include:
• advice on lifestyle, physical activity and eating habits,
• body aesthetic medicine treatments (such as medical radiofrequency, medical massage and combined technologies to improve microcirculation, drainage and skin tone),
• tailored programmes for localised cellulite in critical areas.
The goal is to improve skin quality, reduce the orange peel effect and relieve the most affected areas, using a gradual, realistic and personalised approach.
