Cellulite affects millions of people. Nearly everyone has it, but most people hate it. QWO cellulite treatment in Reston is a great way to address this condition. Here’s what you should know.

What is Cellulite?

Cellulite occurs when fat is trapped in the dermal layer of the skin. This leads to dimples, waves, or an orange peel or cottage cheese appearance.

What is QWO?

QWO is the world’s first and only FDA approved injectable treatment for cellulite. This injection works by enzymatically disrupting the fibrous septae responsible for creating cellulite. Therefore, it gives the skin a smoother appearance.

How It Works

QWO works through Enzymatic Subcision and Remodeling (ESR). The injection contains two enzymes that degrade collage molecules. So, it stimulates the initiation of ESR when the provider injects it into the area beneath a cellulite dimple. This enzymatic degradation of the collagen rich fibrous septae plays an essential role in destroying cellulite.

Furthermore, QWO injections stimulate the production of new collagen molecules. Collagen is what makes our skin firm and plump. This further improves the appearance of skin after QWO cellulite treatment.

Is QWO Cellulite Treatment in Reston Safe?

Yes. QWO has been studied and is considered safe and effective. The FDA conducted several clinical trials that prove the injections are safe. Also, they prove that QWO is an effective treatment for cellulite.

What to Expect

During your treatment, a provider injects QWO into the dimples responsible for your cellulite. You may experience bruising for one to two weeks after treatment and mild soreness for a few days. Tylenol or ibuprofen can alleviate this. Additionally, you may experience mild swelling for a few days after injections. However, you are free to return to daily activities after your treatment.

Results

Patients can expect to see improvement within a few weeks of injection but its important to remember that these results will continue to improve over time. Some patients will require more than one treatment cycle, but this depends on your body.
