Ultimate Cellulite Reduction System: Herbal Body Wrap
Saturday, March 19th, 2011Cynosure Introduces Cellulaze, the World’s First Aesthetic Laser Device for the Long-Term Reduction of Cellulite
Tuesday, February 15th, 2011Building on the success of its Smartlipo(TM) technology for laser lipolysis, Cynosure, Inc. (Nasdaq: CYNO) today introduced the Cellulaze(TM) Cellulite Laser Workstation, the world’s first minimally invasive surgical device designed to reduce cellulite by restoring the normal structure of the skin and underlying connective tissue. Cellulaze has recently received CE Mark certification and will be available in the European Union in the second quarter of 2011. Cynosure (Booth #2921) will exhibit Cellulaze at the American Academy of Dermatology’s 69th Annual Meeting Feb. 4-8 in New Orleans.
An estimated 85 percent of women over age 20 are affected by cellulite(1), a degenerative and largely untreated condition in which dimply herniations and depressions develop within the layers of the skin.
“Cellulaze is supported by two years of clinical research that has led to the development of a revolutionary approach that has been shown to reduce cellulite for 12 months or longer, with a high level of patient satisfaction,” said Cynosure President and Chief Executive Officer Michael Davin. “Unlike the non-invasive treatment approaches that aim to temporarily treat the appearance of cellulite, Cellulaze uses a three-dimensional approach to directly target the subdermal structure that forms the foundation of cellulite.”
Cellulite is caused by several physiological changes as women age including: 1) an increase in the number or size of fat cells pushing up through the tissue beneath the skin; 2) thin connective tissue under the skin that becomes stretched or distended as a result of aging or weight gain; and 3) undulations caused by hardening of tissue underneath the skin.
In the Cellulaze procedure, which is performed under a local anesthetic, the physician inserts a small cannula — a narrow tube the size of the tip of a pen — under the skin. Cynosure’s proprietary SideLight 3D(TM) side-firing technology directs controlled, laser thermal energy to the treatment zones — typically the buttocks and thighs. The laser is designed to diminish the lumpy pockets of fat, release the areas of skin depression and increase the elasticity and thickness of the skin. Patients require just one treatment.
Patients in one U.S. study demonstrated an average increase in skin thickness of 23 percent and 27 percent at one month and one year, respectively, while skin elasticity increased an average of 32.5 percent at one month and 21 percent at one year.
“The cases we have performed with Cellulaze to date demonstrate a benefit from the use of subcutaneous laser energy in terms of tissue tightening through tissue coagulation as well as the regeneration of collagen and connective tissue,” said Dr. Gerhard Sattler, M.D., Cosmetic Surgeon and Director of the Rosenpark Klinik in Darmstadt, Germany.
As with Cynosure’s minimally invasive Smartlipo MPX and Triplex workstations, Cellulaze incorporates the company’s proprietary ThermaGuide(TM) intelligent energy delivery system. ThermaGuide is designed to provide the physician with the ability to accurately determine the treatment doses that are likely to provide safer and more effective tissue tightening through tissue coagulation. In addition, the temperature-sensing ThermaGuide technology allows the physician to maintain an even, controlled flow of laser energy.
With CE Mark certification, Cellulaze will be available for sale to physicians in the European Union in the second quarter of 2011. Cellulaze will be marketed and sold through Cynosure’s European direct sales force in France, Germany, Spain, and the United Kingdom, and through international distributors in other EU countries.
Cellulaze is not available in the United States. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has determined that clearance of Cellulaze in the United States requires a 510(k) submission, which the company has filed in late 2010. The FDA has approved an Investigational Device Exemption (“IDE”) for Cellulaze, and nearly 100 patients have been treated as part of a clinical IDE study. Regulatory action on the 510(k) submission is currently expected in the first half of 2011.
Cellulite Reduction: The Main Methods Available
Wednesday, October 6th, 2010If you are interested in getting smooth skin that is not riddled with cellulite, you should know that there are a few methods available. Before you choose, find out the basic facts about the main cellulite reduction options.
Article:
If you suffer from cellulite anywhere on your body, you are probably painfully aware that it is difficult to get rid of it. You might be able to reduce it a little bit by losing weight, exercising, eating healthy, and applying various creams constantly, but these methods usually do not produce drastic results. If you want to eliminate it completely, you should look into cellulite reduction techniques that require going to a professional near you for minimally invasive surgery.
There are many spas and doctors that offer cellulite reduction as a service. There are a few types, most of which are newer. Thus it is difficult to determine which ones work the best. Though the methods differ, they all focus on destroying the entity that encases all fat cells, followed by eliminating the fat cells, as well. Once the fat cells are turned into liquid, they can eventually pass through the body naturally.
One of the most popular methods involves a laser that liquefies the fat. Once it is eliminated, the skin around it is tightened using the laser so that it does not sag. This can result in a smooth, flat surface devoid of puckered skin that is so unwanted by many women and men. This is considered a minimally invasive procedure since major surgery is not required.
Another method uses radiofrequency waves and massage to result in cellulite reduction. This is also thought of as minimally invasive, which is why many day spas and clinics offer it. The benefit is that you do not have to take days off work to recover, and you can usually see results quickly.
No matter what method you go for, know that one session does not usually cut it. You will likely have to get several sessions in order to see a difference. Additionally, you have to keep the weight off by dieting and exercising. Otherwise, you may find that the puckered appearance will return over time, and you will need to get several more sessions.
Before you decide what is right for you, talk to your doctor. You may find that undergoing major surgery, such as liposuction, is the only way to get rid of the issue. On the other hand, you might find out that a less invasive method will work just fine as long as you have a few sessions. Either way, know that if you gain weight or stop the sessions for a long period of time, you will likely see a return of the cellulite.
