Firmness: the skin has been treated to cause firming and thickening, so this sensation is a normal consequence of the treatment

Common Cellulaze side effects
The most common things to expect during your recovery initially would be swelling, bruising, some oozing from incision sites (for the first 12-24 hours), tenderness/soreness. Bruising and tenderness should resolve over the 2-3 weeks. Swelling may persist a few weeks longer. Some patients experience patchy areas of numbness or tingling after the procedure that will resolve over time. All of these things are quite normal and expected and do go away on their own with no extra attention...

What Are the Side Effects of Cellulaze Treatment?
It seems the side effects or complications are doctor dependent. In that understanding appropriate patient selection, informed consenting are paramount. Seromas are by far the #1 risk, followed by black and blue (ecchymosis), continued irregularities, burns, poor results. Regards Dr. B, MIAMI

Cellulaze has very few side effects
Cellulaze is a surgical treatment so you will experience some soreness afterwards and probably bruising. Some people bruise very little and some have a lot more bruising. Arnica can help. Infection is possible but very rare, I've never seen it. The skin may feel numb afterwards, but it recovers in time.
