ABSTRACT
Objectives and background:
Tissue stabilized-guided subcision (TS-GS) treatment has emerged as a single session treatment for cellulite dimples. To date, studies on a few patients were reported. We present data concerning efficacy and safety of TS-GS for cellulite in a cohort of Italian patients.Patients andMethods:
This is a retrospective study involving 122 patients requiring cellulite treatment, classified according to validate cellulite dimples scale at rest, at T0. TS-GS technique is assessed in terms of efficacy (masked evaluations of pre- and post-treatment pictures, satisfaction of patients and variations in cellulite dimples scale at rest), safety of results at 12 months follow-up (T1). U nivariate and multivariate analyses were carried out to evaluate variables associated with the size effect.Results:
Masked evaluations of 112 patients completing the study resulted in the correct selection of pre- and post-treatment images in all cases and all patients were satisfied. The mean cellulite dimples scale at rest score improved ≥1 point at T1. We found a significant association between size effect, higher satisfaction (p < .01), cellulite grading at T0 (p < .01), higher BMI (p = .037); a higher BMI was correlated to an increased cellulite grading at T0 (p = .02). Only minor and temporary adverse events were reported.Conclusions:
We confirm herein the clinical efficacy and safety of TS-GS for cellulite dimples treatment in a cohort of Italian patients assessed with the validated cellulite dimples scale at rest.Palavras-chave
