What is QWO® ?
QWO® is a FDA-approved non-surgical treatment clinically proven to reduce moderate to severe cellulite in the buttocks of adult women. QWO® is now available at Pariser Dermatology Specialists.
How Does QWO® Work?
There are 3 things that together cause those signature dimples. Let’s take a look under the surface of the skin.
- SKIN Over time, skin thins.
- FAT Fat cells enlarge and push against the skin.
- FIBROUS BANDS The fibrous bands under the skin thicken and cause tension and the signature dimpling on your derriere.
Enzymes called collagenases target the structural causes under the skin, where cellulite starts. It’s thought that QWO works by releasing fibrous bands, redistributing fat cells, and stimulating the growth of new collagen. How QWO works in moderate to severe cellulite is not fully understood.
