It is a laser treatment that divides the fiber that cause the puckering of the skin, it also stimulates collagen production to increase the thickness of the skin, and it destroys protruding fat cells in the thinned skin of cellulite depressions.

Has Celulaze been approved by the FDA? Help!
Celulaze was very recently approved by the FDA in November of 2011.

We were one of the five test centers conducting the FDA clinical trials. Our patients all rated the outcome in appearance. 8/10, and will satisfy.

Has Cellulaze Been Approved by the FDA?
Cellulaze was approved by the FDA on January 30, 2012, for improvement in the appearance of cellulite. Sales in Europe began in mid-2011, and the USA in February, 2012. As of mid-April, 2012, we have started treating patients for cellulite in our Mountain View office. The Cellulaze technology builds on the technology and techniques of the Smartlipo Triplex platform. Having many years of experience using the Smartlipo technology, I found the transition to Cellulaze to be straightforward...

fat herniating into the deep surface of the skin
fibrous bands which create dimpling

Cellulaze is FDA Approved and We Will Offer It in March 2012
As Dr. Mendoza said, yes, it was FDA Approved on 1/30/2012 and has been approved for use in Europe since Septemeber of 2011. Before that it has been tested on people for 4 years and has proven to be very effective against cellulite. Since it is an addition to the SmartLipo TriPlex, it will only be available in limited numbers. I take delivery of my Cellulaze machine in early March 2012 and am very excited to be able to offer it to my patients in Sacramento, Roseville, Folsom and El Dorado...
