Cellulaze Right for Me?

Cellulaze is a new just recently FDA approved procedure for the long term treatment of cellulite.There are no other treatments that have been shown to be as effective or as long lasting. It is not the same thing as liposuction and will not produce the kind of volume change that is achieved with liposuction. On the other hand, liposuction does not improve the appearance of cellulite but is done to change your shape or contour. So they are two completely different... more

Cellulaze treatment for cellulite

Cellulaze is a treatment for cellulite. This is a new laser recently introduced by the same company which brought us the Smartlipo. This is a truly revolutionary treatment, unlike anything before. This is a one time surgical treatment (done awake or with minimal sedation). In clinical trials which were done two years ago, the results still hold up! Remember, this is a surgical procedure, not a non-invasive 8-12 treatments over time. One procedure and you are done. The laser is revolutionary,... more

Cellulaze can address any kind of cellulite

If you have cellulite, then you may be a candidate for Cellulaze. This is a surgical procedure that addresses cellulite, therefore it will improve skin texture, not limb size. If you would prefer a reduction in thigh size, liposuction is the choice. Liposuction, either standard or laser/vaser assited, will not address cellulite and may actually worsen it.

Best Cellulaze Candidate

Cellulaze delivers best results for women who are not significantly overweight but have mild to moderate cellulite on their thighs. I would suggest going in for a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine the best course of action for you. Best of luck.

The procedure can take between 60-90 minutes and can be completed under local or just IV sedation (depending on the length of your procedure... more

Cellulaze in an effective one time treatment for cellulite

The reason so many plastic surgeons are excited about Cellullaze is that it is the most effective treatment yet for a problem that affects 85% of women. Liposuction doesn't treat cellulite and can make it worse. Many women have tried creams and diets and massages and lasers that have given no long term improvement. Cellulaze is a one time, minimally invasive treatment, that has shown long-term improvement, two years and counting. I believe it will set the new... more

See an expert for advice on cellulaze

The simple answer to your question is to schedule a consultation with someone who is experienced with cellulaze, though there probably aren't many in your area since it is so new. A few things to keep in mind are that it is a surgical procedure that uses a specific type of laser in addition to liposuction. Liposuction alone even with previous laser techniques is not usually optimal for cellulite, lonly for removing localized fat.
