I'm in my Mid-thirties and Am Wondering if I Should Get Cellulaze Done Now or Wait Until It Gets Worse?

I have some cellulite on my rear end and back of my thighs. Its not awful, but I assume it will worsen as I age. I know there are no guarantees, but is it thought that having cellulaze done now could prevent it from getting worse, or should I hold off until it has progressed more? What I'm wondering is if I get it down now, will new cellulite appear as I age like it would if I had nothing done, or will this decrease/prevent it from forming?

Cellulaze treatment in my 30's

There is no reason to wait until your Cellulite worsens, in general, before having the procedure - unless you have very minimal cellulite. If your cellulite is moderate to severe, postponing probably does not offer any benefit. It is not known if the procedure prevents cellulite from ever forming, as it has been studied to treat cellulite that is currently present.

Cellulaze will improve mild cellulite as well

It is always best to treat a problem when it is not very severe, as the results are much better and may last longer. By treating cellulite when it starts, it may be possible to have outcomes that are much better than what could be obtained once the condition has become severe.

Cellulaze is most effective against moderate degrees of cellulite.

Cellulaze is most effective against moderate degrees of cellulite. Cellulite is graded by the modified Muller Nurnberger scale which most physicians treating cellulite are familiar with. If your cellulite is minimal then whatever improvement you get from Cellulaze is harder to recognize, because your cellulite was not that bad to begin with. With moderate degrees of cellulite the improvement is easier to recognize and the effect is very long lasting. Some patients with... more

Should I get Cellulaze done now or wait until it gets worse?

This is a difficult question to answer without an in-person consultation because I'd really have to see the extent off your current cellulite. By your mid-thirties you should be seeing the foundation of permanent cellulite which means if it were treated with Cellulaze there is a good chance it will not come back within w few years. It may never come back or get worse once treated but there is not enough long-term studies (5 to 10 years) to know for sure. I would advice that you find a... more

Cellulaze in Young Women

As a board-certified plastic surgeon in Los Angeles who actually performs the Cellulaze treatment, the best candidates for Cellulaze would have moderate to servere cellulite. I have performed this procedure on many patients in their 20's and 30's with moderate to severe cellulite. Age is less of a factor then the severity of the cellulite.
