An observational study in Cellulite, sponsored by Protein Supplies SL. Completed. Open to female participants aged 18 Years to 90 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-04-26.
Sponsored by Protein Supplies SL · Observational
Exploratory, prospective, uncontrolled and single-blinded pilot study, with clinical and ultrasound assessments of cutaneous cellulite before and after treatment with a specific multidisciplinary programme following dietary guidelines, physical exercise and the application of a cosmetic cream.
Females older than 18, with normal weight ranges in addition to the presence of cutaneous non-infectious cellulite (edematous-fibrosclerotic panniculopathy), were recruited for the study and to undergo treatment with the multidisciplinary programme.
All patients were treated with the specific multidisciplinary programme for cellulite (PnKCelulitis®). This programme consists of three phases or processes: the restructuring, drainage and toning processes, each of which combines diet, physical exercise and the application of an anti-cellulite cream that combines active lipolytic and vasodilator agents (Cellulite Gel K-Line®).
Patient's clinical assessment follow-up was performed by the prescribing doctor for the multidisciplinary treatment and was done in four visits: baseline (before starting treatment) and at the end of each of the phases (restructuring, drainage and toning). Anthropometric data were recorded at each visit and a bioelectric impedance test to assess body composition (amount of fat mass and muscle mass). The clinical evaluation of the degree of cellulite was made according to the Nürnberger-Muller classification scale.
Cutaneous ultrasound was performed by an expert dermatologist in the dermatology outpatient clinic of the hospital and subsequently assessed blinded. Two skin scans were done for each patient, one before starting the treatment and another at the end. The objective data collected on each ultrasound were total skin thickness, thickness of the dermis and hipodermis, the area of the indentations of the subcutaneous cellular tissue in the dermis and changes in the echogenicity of the dermis blinded and independently assessed by two researchers, comparing ultrasounds before and after treatment.

Thickness of the hypodermis reduction
Change in thickness of the hypodermis reduction measured by cutaneous ultrasound from baseline to end of treatment
Time frame: from the beginning to the end of treatment, an average of 8±1 weeks in patients with grade 1, an average of 10±1 weeks in patients with grade 2 and an average of 14±1 weeks for patients with grade 3
Area of indentations reduction
Change in area of the indentations of the subcutaneous cellular tissue in the dermis from baseline to end of treatment measured by cutaneous ultrasound
Time frame: from the beginning to the end of treatment, an average of 8±1 weeks in patients with grade 1, an average of 10±1 weeks in patients with grade 2 and an average of 14±1 weeks for patients with grade 3
Total skin thickness reduction
Change in total skin thickness measured by cutaneous ultrasound from baseline to end of treatment
Time frame: from the beginning to the end of treatment, an average of 8±1 weeks in patients with grade 1, an average of 10±1 weeks in patients with grade 2 and an average of 14±1 weeks for patients with grade 3
Thickness of dermis reduction
Change in total thickness of dermis measured by cutaneous ultrasound from baseline to end of treatment
Time frame: from the beginning to the end of treatment, an average of 8±1 weeks in patients with grade 1, an average of 10±1 weeks in patients with grade 2 and an average of 14±1 weeks for patients with grade 3
Cellulite grade reduction
Change in the degree of cellulitis according to the Nürnberger-Muller classification scale from the beginning to the end of the treatment. It is a simple grading-score of cellulite by inspection (grade 0= Smooth surface of skin while lying down and standing and wrinkles upon pinch-test; grade 1=Smooth surface of skin while lying down and standing, mattress-phenomenon upon pinch-test; grade 2=Mattress-phenomenon spontaneously while standing and grade 3=Mattress-phenomenon spontaneously while standing and lying down). A higher score indicates a higher severity of cellulite.
Time frame: from the beginning to the end of treatment, an average of 8±1 weeks in patients with grade 1, an average of 10±1 weeks in patients with grade 2 and an average of 14±1 weeks for patients with grade 3
Body weight reduction
Change in body weight from baseline to end of treatment
Time frame: from the beginning to the end of treatment, an average of 8±1 weeks in patients with grade 1, an average of 10±1 weeks in patients with grade 2 and an average of 14±1 weeks for patients with grade 3
Body Mass Index reduction
Change in Body Mass Index from baseline to end of treatment
Time frame: from the beginning to the end of treatment, an average of 8±1 weeks in patients with grade 1, an average of 10±1 weeks in patients with grade 2 and an average of 14±1 weeks for patients with grade 3
Skeletal muscle mass increase
Change in skeletal muscle mass from baseline to end of treatment
Time frame: from the beginning to the end of treatment, an average of 8±1 weeks in patients with grade 1, an average of 10±1 weeks in patients with grade 2 and an average of 14±1 weeks for patients with grade 3
