QWO Cellulite Treatment NYC | Cellulite Injectable Manhattan

If you are like most women, chances are you have some cellulite you’d like to get rid of. In fact, cellulite affects as many as 90 percent of women and is entirely indiscriminate: it affects skinny people just as it affects those with a few to several extra pounds to lose.

Cellulite appears most often on the buttocks, thighs, and upper arms, and is what gives us that so-called “cottage cheese” or “orange peel” appearance to the skin, causing divots and dimples.

Qwo treats those dimples without surgery and with little to no downtime, allowing the skin to return to its much smoother surface appearance. Using naturally occurring enzymes, Qwo eliminates the causes of the dimples that make cellulite what it is.

What is Qwo?

Qwo is a brand-new, just released, FDA-approved prescription injectable for the treatment of moderate to severe cellulite in the buttocks of adult women.

Qwo is truly a first of its kind and nothing quite like it has existed before.

Qwo is an injectable—much like neuromodulators and dermal fillers are—which is specifically designed to treat cellulite in the buttocks. It requires injection with a fine needle only, and no other incisions or cuts are made. Because the butt is naturally home to plenty of fatty tissue, treatment is virtually pain-free and comfortable.

What does Qwo treat?

Qwo is FDA approved for the treatment of moderate to severe cellulite in the buttocks of adult women. Qwo treats the dimples and divots that contribute to the bumpy and wavy look of cellulite. The treatment is FDA approved for use in the buttocks, with use in such areas as the thighs and upper arms possibly available as off-label use. In your personal consultation at Coolspa, be sure to ask about other areas besides the buttocks that you might be concerned with so our doctor can answer as to your specific case.

How many Qwo treatments will I need?

Three treatment sessions are required, with each treatment scheduled around 21 days apart. During each session, up to 12 cellulite dimples per buttock can be injected with Qwo, for a total of 21 dimples treated per session. At subsequent treatment sessions, the same or other dimples are injected, allowing for a full treatment of all visible dimples.

What is the Qwo procedure like?

The procedure itself is straightforward and uncomplicated. Because the buttocks have plenty of extra fat naturally, as well as less sensory nerve endings, treatment is far less painful than facial dermal fillers for example. At your first treatment session, you will have a personal consultation with our provider, who will select and mark out the cellulite dimples to be treated. Photographs will be taken so that both you and your provider understand and agree upon what we are treating exactly and what we are trying to achieve.

You will then lie on a comfortable treatment table and the injections will begin. Each dimple is injected three times for best results, with the needle being slightly retracted and re-angled to ensure the dimple is sufficiently treated.

What side effects can I expect?

You will experience fairly pronounced bruising, mild pain, and possibly some itching at the injection sites. These all tend to resolve on their own without requiring any special treatment. At each subsequent session, the side effects tend to get less and less severe and to resolve faster and faster. Because the bruising can be quite dramatic, we advise that you don’t start Qwo treatment right before a planned beach vacation. Bruising occurs not just from the needle penetrating but as a result of the work that Qwo is doing to relieve the dimples. Bruising can take up to 3 weeks (sometimes more) to fully resolve.

Is Qwo safe?

Qwo is very safe. It’s FDA approved and its manufacturer, Endo Aesthetics, conducted some of the largest clinical trials ever on cellulite treatment. Qwo was also tested in patients of all weight classes and skin types.

RETURNING TO PATIENT CARE AS USUAL, ONLY BETTER!

We are excited to announce that as of June 8th, 2020, our office will be open for ALL appointment types including Cosmetic Injectables, CoolSculpting, CoolTone, Morpheus8, miraDry, Skincare services, and more!

During this time, we are still encouraging virtual consultations & follows up as an initial step prior to an in-person appointment. We are requesting that established patients virtually consult/review their treatment plans with one of our physicians or medical aestheticians in advance of their scheduled treatments/procedures. We will be providing you with specific procedure-related instructions prior upon scheduling. If you left a deposit for a treatment and have not yet been contacted by our staff, please call, or e-mail our office so that we may get you scheduled.

The Coolspa team has been working diligently to get our office prepared for our re-opening. Our main priority is the health and safety of our patients and staff. Thank you for following our guidelines and being so patient. See below for our re-opening guidelines:

Please take the time to thoroughly read and complete our updated Appointment Policies, COVID-19 Patient Protocols, ASAPS COVID-19 Consent, and COVID-19 Patient Screening Questions. These forms will be sent via email and must be completed prior to your appointment. This will help to screen patients and ensure social distancing in the office.

When we contact you, please let us know if you are or have been sick in the last 3 weeks, have been in close or prolonged contact with anyone who has been sick during that time, or have travelled outside the United States, or have returned from the following states within the last 14 days that have been added to the high covid risk government list including Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, and Utah. Specific symptoms of COVID-19 may include fever, cough, loss of sense of smell and taste, chest pressure, or shortness of breath.

Alert us if you have any other health problems that make you more susceptible to developing COVID-19 or are at increased risk. Although our office has implemented additional measures to keep you safe during this time, we encourage you to consult your primary care physician for further instructions on how to remain safe. Typically, patients over age 65 who also have respiratory ailments, heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, or are immunocompromised are at greater risk.

Medication refill and product requests: Routine requests for medication refills must be requested electronically through your pharmacy. Should you need to purchase skin or haircare products and would like them mailed to you, please e-mail Concierge@Coolspa.com or phone us at 212-249-4990.

We ask that you come alone to office visits, if possible. To limit exposure and practice social distancing, we are doing our best to minimize the number of people in the office at one time. If you require someone to accompany you to your visit, he/she will need to be with you at all times throughout the duration of your appointment or they will be asked to wait outside.

Please make sure to bring a mask with you to your office visit. If you do not have a mask, we will provide one for you.

Please abstain from handshake greetings and keep a “social distance” of 6 feet or more from other individuals when in the office whenever possible.

As soon as you enter the office you will be asked to use hand sanitizer provided to you upon arrival and departure from the practice. Coat both the front and back of your hands and wrists and let them air dry. Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds and avoid touching your face.

Please reply to all email and texts that we send you. We are working with limited personnel and resources, so responding to these messages will enable us to keep in touch with you safely.

We will provide ongoing care remotely using telemedicine. Our telemedicine system will allow us to speak with you, evaluate your face/body/breasts, prescribe treatment, and/or give you advice. We will be contacting you about your existing appointment to determine whether a virtual or in-person appointment is best.

You can obtain good and reliable information about local conditions regarding the pandemic at https://coronavirus.health.ny.gov/home.

For any questions and/or concerns, please call our office at 212-249-4990 or email us at Concierge@Coolspa.com. We know each of you are eager to get back to your treatment regimens, so we will be extending our hours to accommodate everyone as best we can while maintaining health & safety protocols!

We thank you for your continued support & confidence in Coolspa and our staff the past few months. We look forward to welcoming you back to our office!
