Any Comments or Advice Regarding Mesotherapy for Cellulite?

Mesotherapy disappointing for cellulite and fat reduction.
Mesotherapy (Lipodissolve) has been disappointing in fat reduction because of inconsistent results and harsh side effects (pain, swelling, hardness of the area for weeks).

For all of these reasons it is not an ideal treatment although more research and development may change that.

Mesotherapy and Cellulite

Cellulite Mesotherapy
You are correct - mesotherapy is NOT FDA approved for cellulite treatment. Rather, I would recommend you consider Cellulaze.
Cellulaze 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. The procedure can take between 60-90 minutes and can be completed under local or just IV sedation...
