What is Celluform Plus?

Celluform Plus is an enhanced version of the original Celluform treatment designed to reshape the submental area beneath the mouth. Comprising deoxycholic acid as the active ingredient and Arnica, it promises a non-traumatic way to address hard-to-shift fat accumulation.

How does Celluform Plus work?

The core component of Celluform Plus is a 1% deoxycholic acid-based cosmetic solution. This, combined with Arnica Montana, breaks down adipose fat cells in the subdermal layer, ensuring they are reabsorbed rapidly. The treatment stimulates collagen, resulting in firmer skin in the area where the fat-dissolving injections are administered.

Key Ingredients:

DEOXYCHOLIC ACID (DA)

1% solution that actively breaks down fatty deposits and effectively destroys fat cells by way of a mechanism that disrupts cell membranes. DA is a completely natural compound found in the human body as a bile acid. The FDA has approved a competitor product containing DA for reducing moderate to severe fat underneath the chin.

Alpine Arnica

Arnica, a herb native to the Alpine meadows, has been used for medicinal purposes for 500-odd years. It’s renowned for its potent active ingredients, including Flavonoids, triterpenes, sesquiterpene lactones, and essential oils. These compounds give Arnica remarkable anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and analgesic properties.

Arnica plays a pivotal role in stimulating blood circulation, making it an invaluable asset in soothing the skin and significantly reducing swelling, redness, and bruising.

Celluform Plus Treatment Information

Treatment Process

Your Celluform Plus treatment at Dermal Health begins with a thorough consultation. During this appointment, we assess your suitability for the procedure and discuss your expected outcomes. The treatment involves a series of small injections containing deoxycholic acid, administered after the application of local anaesthetic cream. A typical session lasts 30-45 minutes, depending on your treatment area.

Before your appointment:

Stop taking vitamin E supplements 7 days before treatment
Avoid blood-thinning medications for 48 hours (with your doctor’s approval)

Maintain proper hydration

Post-treatment Care

Your recovery period requires:

No strenuous exercise for 48 hours
Avoid saunas and steam rooms for 48 hours
Wear compression garments as directed by your practitioner

Celluform Plus for you.

The treatment stands as a testament to advancements in the world of aesthetic treatments. Offering a non-invasive solution to one of the stubbornest areas of fat, it gives hope to those seeking tangible results without the scalpel. As always, a consultation with an experienced practitioner is paramount to determine if Celluform Plus is the right choice to fight localised fat for your particular case.

It is important to understand that fat-dissolving procedures aren’t designed for major weight reduction or as a substitute for a balanced diet and regular exercise. They’re ideal for those with particular areas of persistent fat that haven’t been reduced through usual weight loss methods.

Fat-dissolving procedures can have potential side effects and risks like all medical treatments. It’s common to experience short-term redness, swelling, bruising, and discomfort where the treatment is applied.
