Results of carboxitherapy for cellulite
The results can be seen, on average, after 7-10 treatment sessions, which should be performed with an interval of 2-4 times per month. To measure the results, you can take before and after photos or use a small thermography device to check the temperature of the area in each affected area. Usually cellulite is found in a greater number of the coldest areas, and so when the thermography shows an increase in temperature in each region, the result is satisfactory.
Studies show that carboxitherapy is effective against fat located in the abdominal region, thighs, arms, flanks and lateral part of the back, as long as the treatment area does not have a large amount of fats.

Cellulite areas with grade IV can reach grade III and with the proper treatment, you can reach grades II and I, where cellulite is only evident when pressing the muscle, being invisible to one eye, in a resting position.
