Non surgical methods

Hisham Seify, MD,PhD answers: Method recommended to reduce celulite?

I tried Lipodissolve and it was VERY painful and I had zero results. I am healthy and fit (52 yrs.) but I have the typical problem areas. Buttocks and thighs. Would you say Vela Shape or Lipo-Ex is more effective in reducing cellulite?

Cellulite is a difficult problem to fix. Most of the modalities available (non-surgical) will depend on a combination of mechanical massage as well as infra red or radiofrequency energey delivery. We use Velashape in my practice and so far we had reasonable results. The key is expectation. Liposuction is not a treatment for cellulite and could make it worse.Good Luck!
