Cellulaze is an effective treatment.

Many women struggle with cellulite. Although there have been many treatment modalities (cream, suction, laser, etc) for cellulite, there is no one treatment that will totally get rid of cellulite.

It is a minimally invasive procedure. However, you should expect to wear compression garment for 6 weeks and... more

CELLULITE TREATMENT? There is not one that works! Pick parents well!

No there is no effective cellulite treatment. I have been and am the chief investigator on a cellulite treatment investigation approved by the FDA in Palo Alto , California. We have so far not proven anything works and I firmly believe there is absolutely no cellulite treatment that works despite flashy advertisement to the contrary. There is a lot of money to be made in the cellulite business and there are plenty of people wanting to harvest the... more

Cellulaze

Consider Cellulaze - a FDA approved one time treatment that 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... more

Laser Cellulite Treatments Show Promise

There is no 100% effective cellulite treatment at this point. Laser cellulite treatments such as CelluTyte and Cellulase do show promise for a 50-70% improvement that is permanent. These are outpatient procedures with a short down time. All the best.

Consider Cellulaze for Cellulite Treatment

Cellulite has been a difficult problem to treat, and various non-invasive technologies have been developed which require multiple sessions and have little if any effect. Cellulaze is different. It is a minimally invasive laser technology that has published results showing high patient satisfaction and improved cellulite appearance by objective criteria at one year. I think follow-up studies will support improvement well beyond a year. Depending on the extent of the... more

Combining Volumizing Fillers and Subcision Can Smooth Cellulite Dimples & Depressions

Very recently a laser device specifically designated for the treatment of cellulite has come to the marketplace. Unfortunately, I have a very healthy dose of skepticism about the true success of this new product for cellulite therapy.. Much hooplah is often made when a new laser or other energy-based device (radiofrequency, ultrasound) receives FDA clearance. Frequently, the public mistakes such clearance for FDA approval, the way medications require FDA approval before being released... more
