Aim. The aim of this paper is to report a novel intensive therapy of gynoid lipodystrophy (cellulite) based on a new hypothesis. Methods. Were evaluated in 10 patients with ages ranging between 25 and 59 years (mean 35.6 years) grade IV cellulite identified by clinical evaluation. Before initiating treatment, perimetry was performed at 5 cm intervals along both thighs, at the gluteal fold, 5, 10, and 15 cm above the gluteal fold, at the navel, and 5 cm above the navel. The patients were submitted to a 4-hour daily treatment session that consisted of manual and mechanical lymph drainage and cervical stimulation by the Godoy & Godoy technique adapted for the treatment of cellulite. After 10 sessions over two weeks, the patients were again evaluated. The paired t-test was utilized for statistical analysis with an alpha error of 5% (P value < 0.05). A reduction was identified at all of the measurement points (paired t-test; P value < 0.0001). Results. The mean reductions varied between 4.0 and 5.7 cm at the measurement points but reductions of more than 10 cm in perimeter were achieved in some patients. Conclusion. This technique involving lymphatic system stimulation is efficacious in the treatment of cellulite.
目的。本文旨在报告一种基于新假说的女性臀部脂肪营养不良（橘皮组织）的新型强化治疗方法。方法。对10名年龄在25至59岁（平均35.6岁）之间、经临床评估确定为IV级橘皮组织的患者进行评估。在开始治疗前，沿着双侧大腿每隔5厘米、在臀褶处、臀褶上方5厘米、10厘米和15厘米处、肚脐处以及肚脐上方5厘米处进行周长测量。患者每天接受4小时的治疗，包括手动和机械淋巴引流以及采用戈多伊&戈多伊技术进行颈部刺激，该技术经调整后用于治疗橘皮组织。在两周内进行10次治疗后，再次对患者进行评估。采用配对t检验进行统计分析，α错误率为5%（P值<0.05）。在所有测量点均发现周长减小（配对t检验；P值<0.0001）。结果。各测量点的平均周长减小幅度在4.0至5.7厘米之间，但部分患者的周长减小超过10厘米。结论。这种涉及刺激淋巴系统的技术在治疗橘皮组织方面是有效的。
