Cellulaze as a treatment of Bad Lipo

As mentioned by other, although we did not do a study ( yet) on the treatment of contour irregularities or surface scarring from previous liposuction...Celluaze is most likely the only tool thus far with the potential to do so. The defects are very similar to those of cellulite and "live" in the same plane. We have done some preliminary work on this with some success but it is only anectodal and not a formal study yet. Probably whould not be wrong to try if the surgeon examining you... more

Cellulaze can be used to smooth out lipo areas

Although there is currently no published data on this subject, some Doctors have been using the Cellulaze technique to smooth out areas of skin irregularity with good results. Cellulaze treatment for this purpose should be performed no sooner than 6 months from the liposuction.

Cellulaze to help with indent after lipo

Cellulaze and indentations from prior lipo

Although there is no evidence to support the role of cellulaze to correct liposuction defects, some palstic surgeons are extrapolating on their experience with cellulaze on cellulite.

Fixing previous lipo with Cellulaze

Hello there, yes..at our practice we have had a lot of success improving previous liposuction that patients have not been satisfied with.

I would speak with your doctor about this specific application because not all Cellulaze doctors are able to perform this with certainty.
