Qwo For Cellulite Reduction
Qwo is the first and only FDA-approved injectable for the treatment of moderate to severe cellulite in the buttocks of adult women. Qwo is an injectable treatment option that is thought to target a primary structural cause of cellulite – the fibrous septae. The procedure consists of three treatments three weeks apart. Results are seen within three months.
How It Works
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.
