Banana Rolls

Our specialists at Light Touch Clinic provide non-invasive treatment for the permanent reduction of fat around the lower buttocks, also known as banana rolls.

About Banana Rolls

Banana rolls are the crescent-shaped rolls of fat that appear just beneath the buttocks. Genetics will often determine the shape of the body and the distribution of natural fat cells. Banana rolls are the result of fat cells accumulating in areas beneath the buttocks where they are not wanted, expanding and shrinking as weight goes up or down.

Banana rolls can often fall into the category of stubborn fat as many people find them difficult to get rid of, despite the efforts of healthy eating and regular exercise.

Light Touch Clinic has a range of great solutions designed to re-contour the body and produce a more desirable body shape. Our treatments allow a permanent reduction of stubborn unwanted fatty deposits, such as banana rolls.

Banana Rolls – Frequently Asked Questions

The word “banana rolls” refers to the fat deposits that build up directly below the buttocks, creating a crescent-like shape that looks like a banana. These fat rolls can be frustrating as they can affect the overall appearance of the buttocks and thighs, making them look misshapen or saggy.

Genetics play a significant role in determining where your body stores fat, and for some, the area under the buttocks is a common storage place.

Also, a sedentary lifestyle and poor dietary habits can play a role in the formation of banana rolls as these factors can lead to an increase in overall body fat.

Yes, banana rolls are completely normal and many people have them. They are just another way the body stores fat, and their presence is not an indication of poor health.

However, some individuals may feel self-conscious about them due to aesthetic reasons. Contact us to book a consultation about your banana rolls.

Spot-reducing fat (shredding fat in a specific area) is not possible. However, engaging in regular physical activity, particularly exercises that target the glutes and hamstrings, can help tone and strengthen the muscles in this area.

A balanced diet that promotes a healthy weight can also reduce overall body fat, which may help reduce the prominence of banana rolls.

The best way to treat banana rolls is through aesthetic treatments. At Light Touch Clinic, we recommend:

  • Emerald Laser: A quick and completely pain-free treatment that uses laser technology to shrink your fat cells. You can see up to 1 inch of fat loss after just one session.
  • Coolsculpting: This non-invasive treatment involves “freezing” fat cells, leading to their complete removal from the body.
  • EMS Suit: This suit is designed to provide a full-body workout in just 20 minutes, through electrical muscle stimulation.
  • Exilis Elite Contouring: This treatment uses radiofrequency technology to shape the area where banana rolls accumulate. It addresses stubborn fat while also tightening the skin.
