What is QWO Cellulite Treatment?
An estimated 90% of women will develop cellulite somewhere in their bodies at some point. Contrary to popular belief, cellulite is not a result of poor diet and exercise. Instead, the areas in which cellulite will appear, and to what degree, is determined mainly by genetics.
QWO is the first-ever injectable treatment for cellulite. This advanced treatment contains a naturally occurring enzyme called Collagenases Clostridium Histolyticum (CCH), which frees the skin of tension caused by fibrous bands that connect the skin to the underlying muscle. As aging causes these bands to stiffen and surrounding fat cells expand, these bands' tension creates cellulite’s characteristic dimpling.
The FDA approved QWO treatment as an injectable medication for cellulite. In comparison to the FDA’s standards for devices, medications are subject to more stringent criteria. QWO is the only injectable treatment that is proven to reduce the appearance of cellulite. While QWO is FDA-approved to treat cellulite in the buttocks, it can also be used “off-label” to treat cellulite in other areas, such as the thighs.
