Does Red Light Therapy Help with Cellulite on the Legs?

Everyone wants to feel comfortable in their own skin. Therefore, if you are a practitioner, it’s easy to empathize with your patients about how overwhelming stubborn cellulite on the legs can be.

If you’re a practitioner wondering “Does red light therapy help with cellulite?” read on for practical answers for you and your patients.

Contour Light has been an industry leader for years, with results praised by both practitioners and patients. If you are looking for a non-invasive, effective treatment option for cellulite on the glutes, thighs, hips, and legs, this device is the best on the market for targeting and smoothing stubborn cellulite.

What Causes Cellulite?

Cellulite is fat built up underneath the skin that pushes up between the connective tissues that hold the skin and muscles together. When subcutaneous fat pushes up underneath the skin, the cords of the muscles attempt to push it back, creating the dimpling effect.

The truth is there are no known direct causes of cellulite. Certain factors may make them more likely to appear — many that may be out of your patient’s control, like age, hormonal changes, metabolism, and insufficient collagen production. Cellulite has no negative effect on your health, but it can be unsightly for many of your patients who want smooth looking skin.

How Red Light Therapy Can Help

There are many ways that people try to get rid of their cellulite and some may have caused more pain and frustration than they are worth. Skin tightening creams show little scientific evidence that they work. The theory is that tightening the skin will reduce the presence of bumps, but the truth is that cellulite begins underneath the skin, where skin creams cannot reach. Additionally, many of the ingredients in skin-tightening products can cause irritation.

Red light therapy is a safe, natural, and non-invasive treatment that has proven in scientific studies to stimulate cells to increase energy and metabolism. When the mitochondria of the cells are moving, multiplying, and producing energy, they melt fat, eliminate toxins, produce collagen, and create elastin, all of which have been shown to assist in decreasing the appearance of cellulite..
