Goldincision is a treatment for cellulite that combines filling and detachment of the fibrous septum for stimulation of collagen and recovery of depressions in the skin. The procedure is performed without hospitalization, with local anesthesia, standing patient and has reduced recovery time.
Formed by sagging, accumulating fat and decreasing lymphatic circulation, cellulitis causes skin depressions due to the opposition of forces between the fat cells that cause distension of the skin and the tightening of the tissue by the fibers that bind the skin to the muscle.
In the early stages, cellulite can be treated with creams, lymphatic drainage to reduce swelling, radiofrequency devices such as Venus Freeze or VelaShape, which aid in body modeling and fibrosis relief. However, noninvasive treatments produce very discrete results in grades three and four, and it is necessary to stimulate the production of collagen internally with filler and to break one by one the fibroses that strain the tissue below the skin.
THE TECHNIQUE OF GOLDINCISION IN THE TREATMENT OF CELLULITE
The four stages of treatment are: marking of the patient standing, anesthesia followed by biostimulation with filling between the skin and the muscle, both with the patient lying down, and, finally, subcision, which is performed with the patient standing.
In the last stage of the treatment, with the patient standing, the doctor breaks the fibrous septa that cause the depressions characteristic of cellulite, relieving the discomfort caused by the nodules. The subcision restores the smooth appearance of the skin and decreases the pressure caused by the localized fat, allowing normalization of blood circulation and reduction of swelling.
THE TECHNIQUE OF GOLDINCISION IN THE TREATMENT OF CELLULITE
With a dressing and a compressed short to avoid accumulation of fluid and bruising the patient leaves the doctor’s office. The band aid is removed within 24 hours and the compressive shorts are held for seven days, while edema and ecchymosis, formed naturally in response to subcision, regress. During this time, the inflammatory process will also help stimulate collagen and reduce sagging. In 30 days a new consultation must be performed for review, when a new session of Goldincision or complementary treatments may be performed. Balanced diet and regular physical exercises help maintain results. Always follow your doctor’s advice.
The postoperative requires limitations such as the use of compressive clothes, suspension of physical activities and local massages for a short period of time. The technique with subcision and filling made with the gold-plated needle is also recommended for the filling of post-traumatic irregularities, such as injections, traumas, falls and even for post-removal patients with silicone prosthesis, with adhesions in the post-inflammatory process.
