Cellulite in Puerto Banús is one of the most common body aesthetic concerns. It can appear in different ways depending on each body and does not always respond to the same type of treatment. That is why, at Glow Beauty Puerto Banús, we take a personalised approach to cellulite, combining a professional body assessment, advanced technologies, and tailored body treatments designed around each individual goal.
The goal is not to treat every case in the same way, but to understand the type of cellulite, skin texture, visible firmness, potential fluid retention, and each client’s individual needs. From there, we create tailored body treatment protocols designed to improve the appearance of cellulite and enhance the skin’s visible quality.
For more specific options, you can also explore our article on cellulite treatments in Puerto Banús, where we explain the different technologies and body treatment approaches available.
What Is Cellulite?
Cellulite is an aesthetic skin concern that appears as an uneven texture or an “orange peel” effect. It can develop on areas such as the thighs, buttocks, abdomen, hips, or arms, and its presence is not determined solely by body weight.
In many cases, cellulite is influenced by factors such as tissue structure, circulation, fluid retention, genetics, hormonal changes, lifestyle, and overall skin quality. As a result, cellulite can present differently from one person to another, requiring tailored body treatment protocols.
From an aesthetic perspective, the key is to assess how cellulite presents, which areas are most affected, and which combination of treatments may help improve its appearance in a realistic and progressive way.
Main Causes of Cellulite
Cellulite can have a multifactorial origin. It is rarely caused by a single factor, but rather by a combination of elements that influence skin texture, visible firmness, and overall appearance.
- Genetics: Family predisposition can influence fat distribution, tissue quality, and the tendency to retain fluid.
- Hormonal changes: These may contribute to fluid retention and changes in the skin’s visible texture.
- Sedentary lifestyle: A lack of physical activity can affect the feeling of lightness in the body and the appearance of certain areas.
- Fluid retention: This can make the skin feel heavier, tighter, or more uneven, particularly on the legs and thighs.
- Lifestyle habits: Diet, sleep, stress, and hydration can also influence the appearance of the skin.
- Loss of visible firmness: When the skin loses tone, cellulite may appear more pronounced.
For this reason, at Glow Beauty Puerto Banús, we do not approach cellulite as an isolated concern, but as part of a personalised body treatment protocol.
Types of Cellulite
Identifying the type of cellulite helps determine the most suitable body treatment approach. Although several types may be present in the same person, this classification allows for a more precisely tailored protocol.
- Soft cellulite: This typically appears as a looser, more dimpled skin texture. It may be associated with reduced visible firmness and a lack of skin tone.
- Firm or fibrous cellulite: This type appears firmer, more localised, and more pronounced. It may require more intensive, progressive body treatment protocols.
- Oedematous cellulite: This type is often associated with a feeling of heaviness, fluid retention, or tired legs. In these cases, lymphatic drainage and restoring a sense of lightness in the body are especially important.
- Mixed cellulite: This combines characteristics of several types and often requires a more comprehensive approach using different body technologies or treatment techniques.
The key is not to choose a treatment based solely on the name of the technology, but on the type of cellulite, the condition of the skin, and each client’s individual goals.
Why Cellulite Requires a Personalised Treatment Protocol
Not all types of cellulite should be treated in the same way. Some skin may require improved visible firmness, while others may benefit from a greater focus on texture, drainage, feelings of heaviness, or overall skin quality. That is why, at Glow Beauty Puerto Banús, we carry out a body assessment before recommending a personalised treatment protocol.
A personalised protocol allows us to select the most suitable combination of body treatments, tailor the frequency of each session, and support progress with at-home care recommendations.
This approach is especially important when seeking to improve the appearance of cellulite in a gradual, realistic way that respects each client’s individual body.
Body Treatments to Improve the Appearance of Cellulite
At Glow Beauty Puerto Banús, we offer a range of advanced technologies and body treatment techniques that can be combined into personalised protocols designed to improve the appearance of cellulite, refine skin texture, enhance visible firmness, and promote an overall sense of body well-being.
- VelaShape III: Combines multiple technologies to target skin texture, the appearance of cellulite, and body contours in specific areas.
- LPG: A mechanised body treatment that can help improve the skin’s appearance, promote a feeling of lightness, and smooth uneven texture.
- Pressotherapy: This can be an effective option when there is a feeling of heaviness, fluid retention, or a need to support the body’s natural drainage process. You can find more information in our article on pressotherapy in Puerto Banús.
- Body HIFU: This can be incorporated into personalised treatment protocols designed to target specific areas and improve visible firmness. Discover more about our Hi Lift 3 body HIFU treatment.
- Indiba Radiofrequency: This treatment can help improve the skin’s visible quality, firmness, and overall body comfort through controlled heat. Learn more in our article on body radiofrequency treatments in Puerto Banús.
- Underwater massage: This can be incorporated into treatment protocols designed to promote a feeling of lightness, enhance overall body well-being, and elevate the sensory experience.
The choice of technology will depend on the type of cellulite, the treatment area, the skin’s visible firmness, and each client’s individual body goals.
Soft, Firm, Oedematous or Mixed Cellulite: How to Choose the Right Treatment Approach
When soft cellulite is predominant, the treatment protocol may focus on improving visible firmness, skin texture, and overall skin quality. In these cases, technologies such as body radiofrequency, VelaShape III, or LPG may be incorporated into the personalised body treatment strategy.
When there is a more noticeable feeling of heaviness or fluid retention, it may be beneficial to incorporate techniques that support the body’s natural drainage process, such as pressotherapy or targeted body massage. By contrast, when cellulite appears firmer or more localised, a more intensive and progressive treatment protocol may be recommended.
In many cases, cellulite is mixed. That is why combining different techniques within the same treatment programme can provide a more comprehensive approach than isolated sessions without a prior assessment.
Velvet INDIBA as a Complementary Body Treatment
In addition to in-clinic treatments, at-home care can help support the skin’s progress between sessions. Within the INDIBA range, Velvet can be incorporated as a complementary body care product in routines focused on improving skin texture, visible firmness, and overall appearance.
This type of skincare does not replace a personalised body treatment protocol, but it can be a valuable complement for maintaining well-cared-for skin and supporting professional treatments.

Lifestyle Habits That Can Complement Body Treatments
Body treatments can help improve the appearance of cellulite, but consistency and daily habits also play an important role in how the skin evolves. Staying well hydrated, exercising regularly, maintaining a balanced diet, and following a tailored body care routine can help support and enhance visible results.
At Glow Beauty Puerto Banús, our team can advise you on how to complement your body treatment protocol with simple, realistic care tailored to your goals.
