Best Procedure for Eliminating/improving Cellulite on Front of Thighs and Should I Wait Until Done Having Children? (photo)

I am 34, 5' 4" and 117lbs. I developed cellulite on the front of my thighs during pregnancy. Despite having lost the baby weight (45 lbs) and exercising and eating healthy it does not seem to be improving. I am hesitant to try lipo as I have heard that it can make cellulite worse and skin appear more saggy. Should I wait until I am done having children (as I seem to gain in my thighs) before having a procedure done? Am I a candidate for a thigh lift? Cellulaze?

Cellulaze

Thanks for your questions I would recommend Cellulaze for your cellulite once you have fully satbilized your weight and are done having children.

Best treatment for cellulite

You appear to be an excellent candidate for treatment with Cellulaze. You are correct that liposuction can sometimes worsen the appearance of cellulite. Liposuction does not treat the anatomical cause of cellulite. Only Cellulaze does with a laser designed specifically for Cellulite. There is good long term follow up on patients that have very good results with one treatment with Cellulaze. Waiting after children may be a good idea because the hormonal changes... more

Cellulaze for Cellulite

Cellulaze utilizes a 1440 nm wavelength laser to accomplish 3 things: 1) melt away fat bulging out 2) break up fibrous septae (attachments) that create the indentations and 3) help thicken the dermis (skin) to prevent future recurrence. 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 and number of areas being treated). To see your final results takes between 3-6 months. You can... more

How do you treat cellulite?

Cellulite is best treated with the new FDA approved Cellulaze. Cellulite is not a problem of the fat (even very thin people can have cellulite) and therefore cannot be reliably treated with liposuction. Cellulite is a problem of the skin and that is what Cellulaze treats. You don't necessarily have to wait until after having children, but you need to make sure that you will have some help around the house for a week after the treatment to care for young ones... more

Cellulaze treats the cottage cheese appearance of cellulaze

You are a candidate for Cellulaze to treat the cellulite on the front of the thighs and Smartlipo to reduce the excess fat on the inner thighs. You might want something on the outer thighs or back of the legs but I can't tell from those photos. You're not a candidate for thigh lift.
