Cellulite: questions patients ask
How does Alma cellulite treatment work?
Accent Prime and PrimeX combine radiofrequency heat, which firms the skin and tightens the connective tissue that causes dimpling, with ultrasound that targets the fat pockets pushing against it.
Can cellulite be removed permanently?
No treatment removes cellulite permanently. Treatment smooths the appearance; maintenance sessions and a stable weight help keep the result.
What does it feel like?
A deep, warm massage. The practitioner monitors skin temperature throughout.
How many sessions?
A course of several sessions one to two weeks apart, then maintenance every few months.
Is there downtime?
None. Mild redness or warmth for a few hours is common.
Which areas?
Thighs, buttocks, abdomen and upper arms are the most common.
