How Long Does It Take for Cellulaze to Work?
I'm assuming that the skin isn't instantly smoothed out after the Cellulaze treatment. Does anyone know about how long it takes for the results to be seen, or what the process is like?

How long does it take for Cellulaze to work against cellulite?
Cellulaze treats the causes of cellulite directly by cutting the fibers that pull down on the skin causing the dimple effect with a laser and results are seen almost immediately (more so after swelling and bruises subside in about a week). That being said, Cellulaze also treats the skin and tissues in the region with lasers that cause the skin to thicken over time which means over time the skin becomes more and more smooth. So in most cases, while you will see a reduction right away, the...

When do you see results after Cellulaze treatment?
You are absolutely right. The results from Cellulaze are not instant. You might look smoother right after the treatment, because of the swelling associated with it. You will begin to see improvement in the 2-3 months out from the laser procedure and usually this maxes out at about 6 months.It takes time because the healing involves skin thickening by making new collagen in the skin and also there's an increase in the elastic fibers. These two are increased by approx 30% as borne out by the...

How long does it take to see final Cellulaze results
In my experience, you will see results right away. If you are happy with what you see in 1-2 weeks, you'll be even more happy over time. However, it can take up to 3-6 months to really see your final results.

Cellulaze results improve with time
I our experience so far, initial results of cellulaze treatment are evident very quickly, within the first week, but continue to improve time.
The results of the FDA trial and the experience of the doctors who were part of the Cellulaze trial indicates that the results continue to improve over 6 months and are stable for over one to two years.

thinning skin
herniating fat into the deep layer of skin
fibrous bands that create dimpling
The treatment results in some bruising and swelling of the treatment area. A compression garment is worn for several weeks to help decrease these side effects. The appearance is already improved by 2-3...

How Cellulaze Works
To understand how Cellulaze works, it is good to know the underlying cause of cellulite. Cellulite is caused by tightening and shortening of connective fibers between the skin and underlying muscle, combined with thinning skin and the fat pushing up against the thinning skin on the surface. I sometimes use the analogy of a mattress with buttons, once those threads (connective tissue) are released, the surface will become smoother. Cellulaze works by three different effects, first, and...

Cellulaze for long lasting cellulite improvement
Hello and thanks for the question. During my consultations with patients I make sure they understand that the results will not show up immediately, and can look worse because of the swelling. The results start to improve by the 3-6 months, and can continue for up to a year after the surgery. Best of luck.

When are results noticeable with Cellulaze
This is a very good question with no good answer. Patients vary greatly in their recovery, healing and when results can be truly seen. For some smoothing can start to be visible within a few weeks but continues to improve for many months. Seeing the final results is dependent on many factors: swelling disappearing, any fluid left in the tissue gone, bruising resolving, skin thickening and tightening. Even if you feel fine, back to normal and recovered after a few...
