Treatment to Minimize Cellulite
Thank you for your question. This treatment is called subcision which breaks down the fibrous septa that is one of the factors involved in cellulite. A combination with a skin tightening procedure can work well to minimize cellulite. I would recommend consult and treatment under the supervision of a Board Certified Dermatologist or Plastic Surgeon for best results and safest treatment options. I hope this helps!

Cellulaze treatment
Yes! Cellulaze uses a laser under the skin to attack the anatomic causes of cellulite. One of the things it does it to cut those septa or bands that causes the dimpling or indentations that contribute to cellulite. It is a minimally invasive procedure that takes 1-2 hours and can be safely done under local or just IV sedation. It is an FDA approved treatment for cellulite and requires only one treatment. Hope this is helpful.

FDA approved Cellulaze
The answer to your question is yes - the new FDA approved Cellulaze laser treatment. Cellulaze works by 1) treating the small pockets of superfical fat causing the bulging seen in cellulite, 2) dividing the fibrous attachments that manifest as indentations in the skin and 3) increasing the thickness and ideally the elasticity of the skin. Best of luck!

Cellulite has three different causes.
Cellulite is caused by three factors:
thinning skin
fat herniating into the deep layer of skin
fibrous bands or septae which create dimpling
Cellulaze is a new treatment created by Cynosure which harnesses the power of laser to treat each one of those causes.
The fibrous bands can be cut with the bidirectional laser fiber to release the tension. The herniated fat is also melted and smoothed. And finally the laser energy increases skin thickness and...

Cellulite surgeries
