Cellulite in the buttocks has been a frustrating, unsightly problem for many women for years, and finding a real solution to address the various types of cellulite has been difficult. Dr. Rosalyn George is proud to be the first provider of QWO® Cellulite Treatment in the area, a new, proven treatment for reducing or eliminating the dimpled appearance of cellulite non-surgically.

What Is the QWO® Treatment?

Cellulite occurs when skin above fatty areas become uneven and dimpled over the years. Cords within the skin called “fibrous septae” shrink and pull down on the skin, while fat cells grow and push up on the skin, resulting in wavy, pockmarked skin. Skin can also thicken over time, making it more stubborn and in turn, more likely to develop cellulite.

QWO® treatment is the first and only FDA Approved injectable for treating moderate to severe cellulite in the buttocks of adult women. It is a prescription, non-surgical injectable that’s applied directly into cellulite. QWO® contains enzymes called collagenases that are used to release the fibrous septae, redistribute fat cells more evenly, and promote collagen growth for healthier, more flexible skin.

I can’t possibly convey how pleased I am with this practice but I’ll do my best. I did a 6 month course of a medicine which required monthly appointments. They pre scheduled everything and made it absolutely flawless. My rx was always called in immediately and there were zero hiccups throughout the process. They were responsive and easily reachable the entirety, as well as supportive. The girls at the front are also so nice and pleasant along with the facilities. Excellent derm, wouldn’t go anywhere else.

The doctor is super nice and won't perform any cosmetic procedures that she thinks would not be worth doing. I do wish that she would have done a small bit of VBeam for me, but her candid opinion on the veins under my eyes and even fillers, kept me from spending a lot of money on things i wouldnt be happy with. Many doctors just want to make money and wouldn't care. Dr. George is more interested in doing the right thing. I would return for skin checks if they accepted my insurance.

What is the History of QWO® Cellulite Treatment?

Endo Aesthetics, the company behind QWO®, performed the largest clinical trials in the history of cellulite research to determine the safety and efficacy of QWO®. Two identical trials, using over 800 adult women of all skin types and ethnicities, found that QWO® caused significant and safe reduction in cellulite in the buttocks. As a result, QWO® was officially approved by the FDA in 2020.

How Does QWO® Cellulite Treatment Work?

All treatments and procedures at Wilmington Dermatology Center begin with a complimentary consultation, where we’ll examine your target areas and discuss your aesthetic goals before developing a personalized treatment plan.

Prior to Treatment

On the day of your appointment, we’ll cleanse the treatment area or areas, and then apply anesthesia to minimize discomfort. We’ll let the anesthesia set for 20 to 30 minutes before beginning treatment.

During Treatment

QWO® injections are applied directly to the treatment area. Typically, a treatment area is a single buttock, and can receive up to 12 injections. Each QWO® treatment visit can consist of two treatment areas, or in other words, both buttocks. This entire process can take as little as 10 minutes or less.

After Treatment & Results

While results can be seen as early as three weeks after their first injections, most patients should receive three treatment visits with about 21 days in between them for optimal results. Because of how QWO® restructures the fibrous septae and fat cells, results should be permanent with continued upkeep including proper diet, exercise, and other changes to your routine.

Am I a Candidate for QWO® For Cellulite?

QWO® is a unique solution for moderate to severe cellulite in the buttocks, for all skin types and ethnicities. It is FDA-approved for women over 18, and we recommend it primarily to patients 40 and younger with good skin texture. While QWO® treatment is excellent for dimples, it’s less effective for ripples. Your provider can help determine if QWO® is for you during a free consultation.

Before treatment, you should let your doctor and your provider know if you are allergic to any components of QWO®, including collagenase; have any bleeding problems; are taking any medications, particularly to prevent blood clotting; have an active infection in a treatment area; are pregnant; plan to become pregnant; or are breastfeeding.

QWO® Treatment Frequently Asked Questions

How many treatments will I need?

How long will it take for me to see results?

Many patients see the results of QWO® cellulite treatment three weeks after the first treatment, with results progressively improving from there for several weeks.

How long will my QWO® cellulite treatment results last?

Because QWO® treatments restructure the fibrous septae and fat cells, results are permanent and can be maintained with lifestyle changes including healthy diet and regular exercise.

Will the QWO® treatment hurt?

We use an anesthetic to ensure that you feel QWO® injections as little as possible, generally only an initial pinch and pressure.

QWO® injections may cause initial side effects of bruising, itching, swelling, and warmth in the treatment area. It may also become temporarily hard, red, or discolored. All side effects generally subside over the course of several days, but you should plan your social life accordingly.
