Accent/laser or Cellulaze? What Would Help Me? (photo)

I am 21 and workout 4-6 times weekly my body is TIGHT/toned. When I was younger I had weight gain and the only place I feel I can't tone up is the back of my legs. I have a creases and not sure if its excess skin or just cellulite. When I pull my leg skin up it looks perfect (not pushing hard at al) so it makes me think it could be more of a skin issue. My question is would I see improvement with accent or a laser similar (which one?) or is my bet cellulaze? Concerned cause cellulaze is SO new.

Accent vs. Cellulaze

It is difficult unfortunately, even with a photograph, to determine your exact concerns or your ideal course of treatment. I don't know that you would see much improvement with a non-surgical treatment such as Accent. If you are trying to improve contours, mild irregularities and tighten the skin somewhat you may be a candidate for SmartLipo and/or Cellulaze.

Cellulite vs Lipodystrophy

Thanks for your question, Alexandra44130. From your photo, it is difficult to see what you are describing. It almost appears as if you have some mild, persistent fatty deposits that are amenable to a Smart Lipo treatment. But if what you are describing is truly cellulite, then I would recommend Cellulaze.

Cellulaze treatment?

It is difficult to assess your area of concern with just your photo. A physical exam is needed. But if indeed your primary issue is cellulite, then I would consider cellulaze. Cellulaze is a FDA approved one time treatment that utilizes a 1440 nm wavelength laser to accomplish 3 things: 1) melt away fat bulging out 2) break up fibrous septae (attachments) that create the indentations and 3) help thicken the dermis (skin) to prevent future recurrence... more

Cellulaze Treatment

If you have areas that are not responding to diet and exercise then Cellulaze would benefit you. This procedure will make the skin thicker and smoother.

Which Treatment?

Even the posted photo does not help in responding. I do not see much cellulite in the photo so try other therapies first. But best to obtain ONLY IN PERSON evaluations.

Cellulaze Treatment

Thank you for your question. In my opinion, Cellulaze is the best treatment for your cellulite. Cellulaze is the only minimally invasive laser procedure designed to attack the structure of cellulite beneath your skin. Cellulaze is backed by many years of clinical research, so it is not that new. Studies have shown it increases the thickness of your skin by 25% and the elasticity of your skin by 29%—significant claims that haven't been made by any other treatments. Thicker and more elastic... more
