Do you have cellulite? Cellulite is a common occurrence – in fact, around 95% of British women have cellulite somewhere on their body, however, it can appear in men as well. For some people, it can cause you to feel uncomfortable and self-conscious about your appearance.

Fortunately, there are treatment options which can help. At Centre for Surgery, we offer CelluTite to reduce and improve the appearance of cellulite.

We also offer a non-invasive method of cellulite reduction using Tightsculpting.

All our plastic surgeons are on the GMC specialist register.

About

Cellulite appears as dimpled, fatty deposits across the body. Cellulite can occur for a number of reasons, such as:

Ageing, which causes a loss of elasticity
Lifestyle choices such as a lack of exercise and poor diet

Cellulite can cause a lack of confidence and self-esteem issues. This causes many people to seek out treatment options.

Luckily, cellulite can be treated with CelluTite. This method uses radiofrequency to target cellulite and tighten the skin.

This procedure is most commonly performed on the thighs or the buttocks.

Candidates

You will be an appropriate candidate for this procedure if you have a moderate amount of cellulite which you are wanting to remove.

You will need to be over 18 years old, but there is no upper age limit. This treatment is suitable for both women and men who have cellulite.

Prior to undergoing cellulite treatment, you will meet with the surgeon who will be able to assess your eligibility for the procedure.

Procedure

CelluTite uses radiofrequency to target cellulite and tighten the skin.

Before the procedure begins, a local anaesthetic will be injected into the treatment area. This means you will be awake for the duration of the procedure, but you will not feel any pain.

Next, small incisions will be made and a cannula will be inserted beneath the skin. Radiowaves are then emitted from the cannula, which heats the tissue. This causes the skin to tighten. The specially designed cannula tip releases the cellulite internally, making the cellulite disappear from view.

Recovery

This is a minimally-invasive procedure, so there will be a short recovery period.

You will have a bandage applied to the treatment area which will be able to be removed the day after the procedure.

You will be able to return to your day-to-day routine directly after treatment.

You may notice some bruising or swelling at the site of the injection, however, this will quickly fade. You may also feel some mild pain and discomfort in the treatment area for the first few days following the procedure.

You will only need to have one treatment to notice results.

FAQs

What is cellulite?

Cellulite is dimpled skin which generally appears in the thighs, hips, and buttocks. Cellulite occurs when fatty deposits push and distort the connective tissue beneath the skin. This results in the skin appearing lumpy and dimpled. It more commonly occurs in women, however, it can occur in men as well.
How do you treat cellulite?

Centre for Surgery treats cellulite with a procedure known as CelluTite. This uses radio waves to heat the tissue beneath the skin, which tightens the skin and removes cellulite.
Am I a good candidate for CelluTite?

You will be a suitable candidate if you have cellulite which you are wishing to remove.

You will need to be at least 18 years old to be suitable for treatment.
What anaesthetic will be used?

CelluTite is performed under a local anaesthetic. This means you will be awake throughout the procedure but will be unable to feel any pain in the treatment area.
How is CelluTite performed?

CelluTite involves the use of radiofrequency energy to tighten the skin and improve the appearance of cellulite.

The surgeon will make a small incision and will insert a cannula beneath the skin. The cannula will then emit radiowaves which will heat up the surrounding tissue. As a result of this, the skin will begin to tighten. This release the cellulite, making it disappear from view.
How many treatments will I need to undertake?

You will only need to have one treatment; the cellulite will not return.
What will the recovery period be like?

This is the 1st time I have ever visited a Private surgery. I had been doing my due diligence and found other surgeries just wanted to talk about money and not about what I wanted. Within Five minutes of meeting Dr Omar Tillo, I knew that I had found the right person for me. Dr Tillo and his entire team offer a first class service, I cannot rate this practice enough and would recommend them to anyone. The office and more importantly the operation area is spotless, nothing was rushed and all the way through from the nurses, anesthesiologist and finally Mr Tillo informed me of what was happening and that I was Ok. I am not one for surgery but wanted to change something that I wasn’t happy with, my only regret is that I didn’t do this sooner. The reason for this post is to reassure anyone looking for a good practice to change their lives. This place is top draw.

I would recommend anyone looking to have a cosmetic surgery to visit the Centre For Surgery. I had two procedures done the same day, forehead osteoma excision and an open septo-rhinoplasty under their general anaesthesia technique – known as ClearSleep™, it allows you o be discharged the same day, right after the surgery you'll be able to get up and dress yourself with very little drowsiness that subsides within the following 30 minutes. The medical technique used by the surgeon for the rhinoplasty also made my recovery period very easy with little bruising and swelling that went away very quick. I didn't take any pain-killers as there was no need for them, only antibiotics pills for a week and some antibiotic cream for the incision between the nostrils.The process from first consultation to post-operative visits was a bliss. Nikesh Shah the patient coordinator was fantastic and made it all very easy for me as I live 6700 miles away from London and we needed to work around my visits to the UK. Dr Onur Gilleard is the kind of Surgeon you want, knowledgeable, patient, calm and reassuring, I had two visits pre-surgery and one post-surgery with him, every time I felt I was what mattered the most at that moment. The Nurses and the Anesthesiologist were fabulous during the day of the surgery, I wasn't particularly nervous but they made sure I had any questions answered prior to the surgery and had smile on their faces all the time while displaying high professionalism at all times. Post-operative visits went very well and eight days after my surgery I was flying back. It's been almost two months now and I'm very pleased with the results, which are very natural and most people after the second week couldn't tell I had any procedure done. You can have a chaperon and driver booked by the Centre For Surgery to go back to your hotel, it was a great service. Post-surgery you will be called every day to check how you are doing/feeling and if there is anything you need until you decide that the calls can stop.Overall a fantastic experience with the Centre for Surgery and their staff, which I have already recommended to many of my friends looking to have a cosmetic surgery.

Dr. Omar Tillo performed a bilateral otoplasty a few weeks ago and the results are better than I ever expected. I am very happy that I chose Dr. Tillo to perform my surgery. I visited both clinics for various appointments and they both are of a very high standard; all staff members were professional and very caring. I would highly recommend this practice. Thank you for the amazing job you performed.
