I tried a cellulite treatment and it actually worked!
If you’ve ever looked up ‘how to get rid of cellulite,’ you’ll probably be left feeling like there’s no hope. Most of us have dimples, yet the odds are stacked against us when it comes to finding an effective cellulite treatment. Cellulite happens to all of us, no matter our dress size, and although there are countless creams and lotions claiming to be a miracle cure – most will do nothing more than your average body moisturiser.

In my own quest to find out how to get rid of cellulite, I wanted to know how celebrities dealt with their cellulite woes. Surely, the Kardashians aren’t immune to dimpled skin, right? Turns out, they’re not – they just have access to pretty incredible treatments that sculpt, smooth and reshape your body to get you bikini ready in rapid timing. While these treatments claim to be effective, they’re not cheap.
I visited the Body Sculpting Clinics, to find out if celebrity cellulite treatments are worth the splurge.
Initial consultation
The team at the Body Sculpting Clinics recommend having a complimentary consultation before deciding on a treatment plan. I love this because a ‘one size fits all’ approach isn’t going to work for all body types. At my consultation I mentioned that despite working out, eating healthy and maintaining a healthy weight range, I still struggled with cellulite and the dreaded banana roll (stubborn fat underneath the buttocks). It’s important to note that there are various treatments you can have to address your unique concerns, so the initial consultation is key in choosing the right one for you.
I was prescribed a combined treatment of Ultrasound Therapy (HIFU), RF Skin Tightening, and Cryolipolysis. The next step was to lock in ten appointments in total, including two treatments of Cryolipolysis, two treatments of HIFU and eight treatments of RF.
The treatment
During the first appointment, the amazing team at Body Sculpting Clinics weighed me so that at the end of my plan I could be weighed again to make sure the results were purely from the treatments.
First up, I had a session of Cryolipolysis – this was the most intense part of the treatment plan. Cryolipolysis is a permanent form of fat loss and was used to target my banana roll. The applicators were specifically placed over the small layer of fat to help reduce fat and give the appearance of a butt lift. Full disclosure: This one hurt. Not a lot, but you can feel it freezing your fat cells. It’s almost like a slight stinging. Since you’re lying down during the treatment, I distracted myself by watching Netflix on my phone (beauty is pain, right?).
Next, was RF Skin Tightening. This was my favourite part of the whole experience! It feels like someone is massaging your butt and thighs with hot stones. At some points it gets a little hot, but for the most part it’s very relaxing. RF reinforces your skin’s supportive elements to firm and plump the skin. The firming element was crucial for my treatment plan in restructuring and shaping my inner thighs. Honestly, I didn’t think this part was necessary at first but I am SO glad I listened to the team at the clinic and tried it.
The final treatment was HIFU which is a very strange but a necessary part of the treatment plan. It uses micro and macro focused ultrasound to promote collagen stimulation and long-term tightening of the skin. It’s completely painless, but the sound of the machine takes some getting used to.
The results
I have to say, I was sceptical about the treatments. As a Beauty Editor I know that most products which claim to rid cellulite are usually a gimmick. Plus, my cellulite was quite minor so I wasn’t expecting the results to be overly dramatic. During the treatment plan, I thought I could notice an improvement but I wasn’t sure if it was just positive thinking. I had to wait 12 weeks after my final treatment before I could go back to Body Sculpting Clinics for my review. When I finally saw my before photos and compared them to my after photos, I was shocked. Honestly, I didn’t think the results would be that obvious! My backside was completely reshaped and sculpted. My buttocks looked more lifted and the banana roll had practically vanished. I weighed the same at my review as I did when I had my initial treatment and I’d made no other changes to my routine. This is definitely how celebrities get a dimple-free booty.
You're probably wondering how much it costs to try something like this and honestly, I can’t give you an exact number. Since every treatment plan is customised, prices vary. However, an initial consultation at the Body Sculpting Clinic is free so it’s worth having a chat to their experienced team to see what would work for you.

Yes the cellulite treatments are so varied and personalities have so many people taking care of them along with a fitness regime, the thing you need to do is to choose the best cosmetic surgery clinic such as Islamabad best cosmetic hair surgery center could be one of the best choice ...

I have some cellulite, nothing major. When I use tanning products it disguises the cellulite area on my legs so I would not opt for treatments at this stage. I am all for boosting body confidence so if a treatment works for you and you want to do it, go for it.

Looks like she just got a tan... and I’m guessing it’s not a cheap process.

Yes, I have tried RF weight loss before in a beauty salon. After a treatment, my skin is firmer, but this blog says that the combination of cavitation and can achieve the better effect of weight loss.

I feel the tanned skin helps a lot, you would probably need a lot of sessions to see real results.....and she totally didnt need it. LOL to the banana roll comment though.

So many Cellulite Treatments that are available glad that some actually work many celebrities use Photoshop to get rid of cellulite and tanning to make the skin look healthy.
There is absolutely nothing wrong without having a Suntan and keeping your skin a much paler colour.

Cellulite treatments are so varied and personalities have so many people taking care of them along with a fitness regime so they probably don't get a chance to have cellulite invade. Having tried a cream claiming to reduce cellulite was a hoax (my opinion only) and I think the effort of rubbing the area probably worked better anyway. My best treatment for cellulite is wearing clothing that hides it! That is if you don't get enough exercise to break down the fatty areas. Something that I am getting too old to actively do on a regular basis now.

Why the use of a tanning product in the "After" photo? Is that because there has been no real results, but the perception of tanned skin looks healthier?

Yes, I’m game, I’d try it. The pain doesn’t scare me, but the cost does.

Interesting article. Don't think I'll try it though....don't think the pain and cost will be worth it!

I can see a slight difference in the before and after pics but as others noted you have gorgeous legs Sophie.
Thanks for going through this procedure and sharing, it did look uncomfortable during the fat freezing though and red and sore after.

There appears to be a positive difference but I'm wondering if the 2nd pic the thigh being tanned is causing this. The procedure sounds painful and it would also be costly like all such treatments are. People will just have to accept me cellulite and all. LOL !!!
