Laser vs red light LED vs infrared light LED vs radiofrequency for skin tightening and cellulite

Cellulite, however, is found at the deepest layer of the skin (hypodermis), not the most superficial (epidermis), so ablative lasers do not work for cellulite at all…

Slimming leggings, cellulite, fat reduction and skin looseness
Taking chances with dangerous cellulite/skin tightening treatments for “instant” results? Good luck with that, literally.
The body, including the skin, needs regular strong-but-safe stimulation to change. Plus it needs time between sessions of stimulation to recover and built stronger issue.

How does ultrasound cavitation reduce cellulite fat? [Research]
Ultrasound-induced cavitation is a phenomenon that occurs when high-intensity sound waves are used on certain tissues, such as human skin. When the intensity of the sound waves is strong enough, it can create small gas bubbles in the tissue. These bubbles can then quickly collapse, releasing energy in the form of heat and force. Research has shown that this process can reduce the amount of fat and shrink the size of fat cells in the skin.
What is ozempic butt and how to fix it
Wegovy and Ozempic are injected medicines that both contain the active molecule semaglutide. Ozempic is prescribed for diabetes.
