Subcutaneous Tissue & Cellulite Ultrasound Assessment

Service Description

WHAT IT IS An ultrasound assessment of the fat layer, the connective tissue bands and the skin thickness in an area of the body, used to determine what is actually producing the appearance you want to change. WHY PEOPLE CHOOSE IT Cellulite and body contour concerns look similar on the surface but have quite different underlying causes — fibrous septae pulling the skin down, fat lobule herniation, or simple skin laxity. Each responds to a different treatment, and treating the wrong one wastes both money and time. WHAT WE AIM FOR A clear answer on what is driving the appearance in your case, and a treatment plan built on that rather than on a guess. WHO IT SUITS · Cellulite that has not responded to previous treatments · Deciding between skin tightening and fat reduction · Body contour concerns you cannot categorise · Wanting an evidence-based plan before committing to a course TREATMENT DETAILS Appointment: 20–30 minutes Discomfort: None Downtime: None Covers: One body area per appointment Output: Findings and a recommended treatment pathway FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Will this treat my cellulite? No — this is a diagnostic assessment, not a treatment. Its value is that it tells you which treatment is worth having, which matters because cellulite treatments vary widely in what they actually address. Is cellulite always the same thing? No, and that is precisely the point. Where fibrous bands are the main cause, treatments that release them work best. Where skin laxity dominates, tightening is the answer. Where fat distribution is the driver, neither will help much. Can this tell me whether HIFU body contouring will work for me? Yes — that is one of its most useful applications. Skin thickness and fat depth measurements indicate directly whether you are likely to respond. Who will treat me? All treatments at Dr Selvi Clinic are carried out by a doctor, following a face-to-face consultation and an assessment of your suitability.
