CELLULITE
Cellulite is caused by fat deposits just below the surface of the skin that bulge out from fibrous cords connecting the skin to the underlying tissue. Collagen fibers that connect fat to the skin stretch or break down allowing the fat cells to bulge out. This creates the rippled look of cellulite and gives a dimpled appearance to the skin; it is most commonly seen on the buttocks, hips and thighs. The Accent™ breaks down cellulite accumulation, releases and flushes away toxins and fatty deposits from the body, drains excess fluid from the body, boosts collagen production to improve the appearance of skin, targets key areas and pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise, improves the texture and tone of the skin, and improves the resilience of your skin.

WHAT TO EXPECT
The Accent™ can be used on almost every part of the body, and the treatment is quick, effective and relatively painless. Accent™ uses dual-layer radio frequency to heat the dermis (your skin’s inner layer) with no damage to the epidermis (your skin’s outer layer). The laser also heats up the dermal layer of skin which releases fat cells into the body for natural removal and firms up the skin in the process. The procedure takes less than an hour (depending on treatment area) and requires no downtime; while most people experience slight redness and swelling, this will disappear within a day or two.
