At Acqua Med Spa of Webster, TX, our providers work with women regularly who come into the practice seeking solutions for the skin and body. One common complaint is that of cellulite. Cellulite is the dimpling skin that is often seen on the thighs and buttocks. Regardless of a patient’s weight, age, and health, cellulite can develop and become extremely noticeable and embarrassing when wearing more revealing clothing. With the help of our team, women find that we have a reliable and effective way of addressing cellulite with QWO cellulite injections.

How do QWO cellulite injections work?

QWO is a prescription product that can be injected into the thighs and buttocks to address mild to moderate cellulite in women. The enzymes in the medication breaks down the collagen and fibrous cords that create the dimpling appearance. Unlike other products available on the market, such as creams and massage oils, QWO cellulite injections work because they are clinically proven to improve cellulite. New collagen is formed, fat cells in the area are redistributed, and the dimpling appearance caused by the tight fibrous cords is smoothed away!

How is a good candidate for QWO cellulite injections?

As we age, fat cells tend to accumulate throughout the body, and those near the buttocks and thighs have a tendency to push against the thinning skin. This causes the cottage cheese appearance associated with cellulite. The best candidates for these injections are women who are ready to address mild to moderate cellulite with a cosmetic injectable.

What can I expect from QWO cellulite injections?

During the QWO treatment, a needle is used to inject the medication in the area of concern. The number of injections in the area varies depending on the size of the treatment area and the severity of the condition. It is recommended that patients have three initial treatments spaced weeks apart to see the most noticeable changes. Patients can expect short-term side effects such as bruising, itching, swelling, and redness in the area, though these often resolve on their own.
