Cellulite is extremely common, particularly among most women. Cellulite typically appears as dimpled skin around the buttocks and thighs. Despite most women having cellulite, it causes most to feel insecure, and they seek cosmetic treatments to help get rid of it. 

QWO is a revolutionary FDA-approved injectable to treat moderate to severe cellulite in the buttocks of adult women. It’s minimally invasive, effective, and safe, making it a top choice among patients struggling with cellulite. The question that most of our patients ask is how long do the effects of QWO last? Let’s find out together. 

Why Does Cellulite Form?

Before we dive into the proven results of QWO, let’s quickly go over how cellulite forms, and what QWO can do for you to effectively get rid of cellulite. 

Cellulite forms when fat cells accumulate in between the skin and muscle tissue. Septae are a type of fibrous tissue that keeps the skin and muscle layers attached. When fat builds up in between the layers, this creates the dimpled appearance that people associate with cellulite. 

How Does QWO Work?

The main ingredient in QWO is collagenase clostridium histolyticum-aaes, which is a combination of enzymes known as bacterial collagenases. When it’s injected into an area with cellulite, it targets the septae beneath the skin. Over time, it breaks down accumulated collagen in the septae, which allows the skin to return to a lifted position. This results in smooth skin with a reduced appearance of cellulite. 

How Long Does QWO Last?

Unlike other cellulite treatments, which provide results that only last for a few months, QWO is long-lasting. The unique QWO formula destroys the septae that cause cellulite, and the results from this treatment are permanent. However, to keep new cellulite from developing, it’s crucial to maintain your weight with a healthy diet and follow a regular exercise routine.
