Cellulite Reduction Treatments
Treating Cellulite at the Source
Cellulite affects over 90% of women, appearing as dimpled skin on the thighs, buttocks, and hips—not from excess weight, but from how fat is structured beneath the skin. Fibrous bands tether skin to muscle, creating pockets where fat bulges through, producing the characteristic “cottage cheese” appearance.
Profound® RF by Candela targets cellulite where it forms. Using precision microneedles, the device delivers controlled radiofrequency energy deep into the subcutaneous fat layer—the exact location of those fibrous bands. The heat breaks down rigid bands while simultaneously stimulating collagen and elastin production, tightening skin from within for smoother, firmer contours.
At Colorado Skin & Vein, Dr. Verebelyi brings over 20 years of advanced laser and energy-based treatment expertise to every Profound® procedure, ensuring precise technique, optimal temperature control, and natural-looking results.
