National studies conducted in 2007 estimate that over 90% of women suffer from unsightly cellulite. Ironically, the treatment options are limited and not always desirable.



The release of the Thermage ThermaTip 'CL' (Cellulite) offers a noninvasive treatment to reduce to noticeable signs of cellulite. ThermaTip CL offers a unique choice for those who suffer from cellulite but have been unable to find an option that produces a noticeable change in their appearance after just a single treatment, without the risks of surgery or painful injections.

Thermage utilizes a system in which the deeper layers of the skin where fat deposits and cellulite build are heated while the upper layer of the skin is kept cool. This capacitive radiofrequency system works by stimulating collagen tissues that tighten the skin in order to soften and smooth the surface of the treated area, which is not only safe and effective but offers optimal results without downtime.

Karl Swanson, M.D., the medical director of Ultimate Image Cosmetic Medical Center in Clearwater, Florida , expressed confidence and excitement over this groundbreaking technique. 'We have seen some fantastic results using Thermage's DC (Deep Contour) system, so I am nothing but optimistic about the results in cellulite reduction my patients may see with the CL treatment.' Dr. Swanson adamantly believes that this treatment is helpful for fighting 'bulging' skin, cellulite, or areas unwanted looseness and is ideal for someone who cannot afford the downtime other procedures require.
