I had Cellulaze done to the front of my legs today (the lower part -- down by my knees), but my "before" shot of my knees has me quite upset. Am I just cursed with horrific looking knees & should leave them alone, or could something be done aesthetically (along with strengthening/toning my legs) such as lipo? thigh or leg lift (sounds like a big deal and scary)? more Cellulaze? Bottom line -- I have very ugly knees (they're my mother's -- exactly). Can anything be done? I'm 41. Any suggestions?

Without a physical exam it is really impossible to determine the proper treatment for your concerns. Dimpling caused by cellulite is not generally effectively treated by fat injections because the dimpled areas are tethered down by fibrous bands of tissue, they are not simply uneven areas...
That is correct in the standing position is how we examine the grades of cellulite. If sitting thee compression of the skin/tissues makes these irregularities decrease. Send a photo so we can give you an idea of the grades of cellulite you have. Regards Dr. B, MIAMI
