There’s no shortage of over-the-counter cellulite products, skin-firming lotions, and cellulite creams that are expensive, inconvenient, and don’t actually produce noticeable or lasting results, leaving many people feeling frustrated and defeated – but we’re here to help. At The Secret Orchid, board-certified physician and aesthetic specialist Dr. Carolyn DeLucia focuses on treatments that target the underlying causes of cellulite and produce visible results rather than superficial solutions, proudly offering Accent Prime® RF cellulite reduction in Hillsborough Township, NJ. If you’re interested in a cellulite treatment that actually works, keep reading to learn more about what Accent Prime does and what results may be possible for you with nonsurgical cellulite reduction. 

 

What causes cellulite in some people but not others? 

Cellulite develops when bands of connective tissue beneath the skin pull downward while fat pushes upward, creating the dimpling or rippling appearance many people recognize. While weight can sometimes influence how noticeable cellulite appears, cellulite is not simply caused by being overweight. In fact, many healthy, active, and fit people still struggle with cellulite due to factors such as:  

  • Genetics 
  • Hormonal changes 
  • Skin elasticity 
  • Fat distribution 
  • Aging and collagen loss 

This is one reason cellulite can be so frustrating. Even people who exercise regularly and maintain a healthy lifestyle may still notice stubborn dimpling on the thighs, buttocks, hips, or abdomen. 

 

Does cellulite cream work? 

Most cellulite creams provide only temporary or surface-level improvement, if any noticeable change at all. Some products may slightly tighten or hydrate the skin for a short period of time, which can make cellulite appear somewhat smoother temporarily, but they typically do not address the structural causes beneath the skin. That’s why many patients become frustrated after spending significant time and money cycling through creams, cellulite wraps, and topical products that fail to create lasting results. 

 

Is there a cellulite treatment that actually works? 

Professional cellulite reduction treatments can often achieve far more noticeable improvement because they target the deeper tissue layers involved in cellulite formation rather than just the skin’s surface. Accent Prime RF nonsurgical cellulite treatment uses radiofrequency energy and ultrasound technology to heat tissue beneath the skin, helping stimulate collagen production, tighten tissue, improve circulation, and smooth the appearance of cellulite over time. Some of the most compelling benefits and results that are possible with Accent Prime for cellulite include:  

  • Nonsurgical treatment 
  • Minimal downtime 
  • Smoother-looking skin 
  • Improved skin firmness 
  • Gradual natural-looking improvement 

Because treatment is customizable, Accent Prime can be tailored to the patient’s specific concerns and treatment areas. 

 

Does Accent Prime get rid of cellulite? 

While Accent Prime can create impressive improvement in the appearance of cellulite, it’s important to have realistic expectations. No cellulite treatment can necessarily perfectly smooth skin indefinitely, especially since factors like aging and genetics continue to play a role over time. However, many patients experience noticeably smoother, firmer-looking skin and a visible reduction in dimpling that helps them feel significantly more confident in shorts, swimsuits, and fitted clothing. 

 

Will cellulite come back after RF cellulite treatment? 

Results from RF cellulite treatment can be long-lasting, particularly when paired with healthy lifestyle habits, but cellulite can gradually return or evolve over time as the body naturally changes with age. Some patients choose periodic maintenance treatments to help preserve their results and continue supporting collagen production and skin tightening. During your consultation, Dr. DeLucia and our team will discuss what type of treatment plan may help you achieve and maintain your ideal outcome for as long as possible.
