CELLULIFT

CELLULIFT is a restructuring treatment designed to restore the elasticity and tone of flabby tissues. Its richness in specific nutritional elements helps to stimulate the growth of fibroblasts by activating their metabolism. Enriched in glutamic acid, glycine, hydroxyproline, lysine and valine, CELLULIFT boosts the synthesis of Collagen and elastin by ensuring the bio-availability of their respective precursors.

The addition of copper, acting on the lysyl oxidase stimulates the networking of elastin and collagen that the silicon can then structure into a three-dimensional network.

By stimulating the regeneration of the connective tissues and by modifying the elastin both quantitatively and qualitatively, CELLULIFT reduces the permeability of the connective tissues, fostering the creation of dense, well-textured tissues giving the skin a new tone and firmness.

Indications

CELLULIFT can be used preventively and for the treatment of the face and body (neckline, armpits, etc.) in the following cases:
  • Prevention of cutaneous atonia in young and mature skins
  • Strengthening the firmness of skins prematurely damaged by outside aggressions (sun, smoking, pollution, etc.)
  • Treatment of sagging skin following weight changes (slimming, pregnancy, liposuction, etc.)
  • In addition to a facial or body liposculpture treatment such as CELLULYSE

Contra-indications

The contra-indications of CELLULIFT are the same as for mesotherapy:
  • Skin infections
  • Herpes
  • Cancer
  • Psoriasis
  • Auto-immune diseases
In other cases, each patient should be assessed individually with the proposal of deferring treatment as applies. This is especially the case for:
  • Pregnancy
  • On-going allergic bouts
  • On-going anticoagulant treatment

Side effects

There are few side-effects in mesotherapy. In most cases, they are minor and reversible.
  • Allergies: procaine is the agent most often involved in the appearance of any allergy. No clear cases of allergic shock have however been recorded in the course of treatment by mesotherapy. The possible reactions described are mainly rashes which disappear in 2 to 3 days. Any allergic reaction noted in a patient should however result in the immediate stoppage of the treatment. The other compounds used (vitamins, mineral salts, amino acids) do not present any related allergenic risk.
  • Pain: this depends on uncontrollable factors such as individual sensitivity, the sensitivity of the area to be treated and the depth of the injection. It also depends on certain factors that can be taken into account and improved:
    • the technique: the injection must be fast and precise,
    • the equipment: the pistol and the needles must be of good quality and the needles must be regularly changed during the session.
  • Infections: infections are always possible once the skin barrier has been broken. They can easily be avoided by observing a few simple rules:
    • use of top quality products offering all the necessary guarantees of sterility,
    • use of sterile, disposable equipment,
    • careful disinfection of the areas to the treated,
    • advice given to patients on hygiene.
  • Hematoma: this is the most frequent side-effect despite all the precautions taken. It can however easily be masked by suitable make-up and disappears within 2 or 3 days after treatment.
