FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is QWO?
QWO (collagenase clostridium histolyticum-aaes) is an exciting new, non-surgical, injectable treatment clinically proven to reduce moderate to severe cellulite in the buttocks of adult women. The enzymes in QWO – called collagenases – are believed to target a structural cause underneath the skin. QWO works in three ways: breaks down the buildup of collagen in fibrous bands, redistributes fat cells and stimulates the growth of new collagen.
What is cellulite and what causes it?
Cellulite – that thick, dimpled “cottage cheese” like texture that forms when fat gets trapped in the skin’s dermal layers can be extremely difficult to get rid of through dieting and exercise alone. Cellulite isn’t fat. It’s not caused by what or how much you eat. Cellulite doesn’t exist because you aren’t exercising enough. There are three things together that can cause cellulite: skin, fat and fibrous bands. Over time, the skin thins. Fat cells are then enlarged and pushed against the skin. The fibrous bands underneath the skin thicken and cause tension, which creates the signature dimpling “cottage cheese” on your buttocks, often referred to as cellulite.
What are the benefits of QWO Cellulite Treatments?
QWO is a new, exciting breakthrough in cosmetic science. It’s a safe, non-invasive, non-surgical, FDA-approved treatment to help contour the lower body and reduce moderate to severe cellulite in the buttocks without invasive surgery. QWO is a quick and easy treatment with the actual injections taking as little as 10 minutes. There’s no downtime. Patients start noticing visible results within a matter of weeks and the results they see are long-lasting. A common side effect for QWO patients is a huge boost in self-confidence.
QWO Treatment Before and Afters
What can I expect during a QWO treatment?
During the initial consultation, your PUR Skin Clinic provider will help determine if QWO is right for you. Your provider will discuss treatment, expectations and decide on a customized treatment plan for you, including the total number of treatments you’ll need to get your desired results.
During treatment and after identifying the treatment areas, your provider will use a small needle to inject QWO into the targeted treatment areas. QWO injections take as little as 10 minutes. Each treatment visit may include up to two treatment areas.
What can you expect after a QWO treatment?
The most common side effects after treatment are mild bruising at the injection site, swelling, tenderness and itching. If present, these symptoms only last a short amount of time. In clinical trials, women required no post-treatment downtime. If there was bruising, most bruising lessened after each treatment and resolved in less than 21 days. Since QWO is a non-surgical treatment, patients will be able to return back to their normal activities right after treatment.
What kind of results can I expect to receive with QWO?
Visible results may be seen within a few weeks after treatment and are long-lasting. Individual results may vary. In clinical studies, women received 3 treatments of QWO, 21 days apart.
