Cellulaze for Skin Tightening?

I have loose skin on my stomach and some fat that I want to get rid of. I was offered Cellulaze for skin tightening and fat reduction. I did research on the procedure and all I can find is that it's only being done to treat cellulite, which I don't have on my stomach. My question is - is this procedure designed to be performed on a stomach and will it result in skin tightening and fat reduction in that area? Also, can liposuction be performed at the same time?

Cellulaze indication

Cellulaze is FDA approved for the treatment of cellulite. It doesn't sound like you are experiencing cellulite in your area of concern.

Cellulaze on the stomach

Cellulaze is a procedure designed to treat cellulite. If you do not have cellulite, you are unlikely to get the result you desire. Cellulaze will lead to some skin tightening since that is part of the treatment process in improving cellulite. However, it is not meant to treat more than very superficial fat. Based on your description, it sounds like you would be a very good candidate for SmartLipo. Good luck!

Cellulaze Treatment

Thank you for your question. Cellulaze can have a skin tightening effect, but ultimately it works to reduce cellulite. Based on your description, you may not be satisfied with the results if you are looking for tightening of the stomach area.

Cellulaze to tighten loose abdominal skin?

I don't think this would work very well. Cellulaze is specifically designed to address cellulite, which is a superficial issue. Like any tool it is best applied to the job for which it was designed.

Cellulaze for abdomen

Cynosure Cellulaze was originally intended for the treatment of cellulite. It can tighten skin and reduce some fat but without seeing you it would be impossible to say if that is the ideal treatment for loose skin and fat reduction on your abdomen. Cynosure SmartLipo can also be used to address these issues but again, without a consult, it is really impossible to say if it is an option for you. Dr. Grant Stevens see video

Cellulaze versus Smart Lipo

Hello and thank you for your questions. Without photos or a physical exam it is difficult to recommend which procedure to perform in order to improve the shape of your midsection. Cellulaze can remove small fatty bulges and provide skin tightening, but if there is a significant amount of fat and loose skin I would recommmend an evaluation by a board certified plastic surgeon that is experienced with Smart Lipo triplex. Cellulaze can be done at the same time as liposuction... more

Can Cellulaze be Used for Skin Tightening?

Cellulaze works to treat cellulite by melting fat, cutting bands and by tightening skin. This is really done at a more microscopic level but can help with minor skin laxity issues. To really address fat and loose skin in the abdomen, a procedure like Smart Lipo would be appropriate because it is more agressive at melting fat and tightening skin. If you were to have Cellulaze, liposuction should not be done at the same time
