Mulitmodal Therapy can effectively reduce cellulite f applied appropriately
In my practice I have found that the only way to improve cellulite is to attack it with several different noninvasive technologies to contract and smooth at different depths. I call it Maercks Multimodal Therapy or MMT. I have never seen any one technology have an impressive effect on its own.
All the best,

No cure for cellulite
To be clear, there is no proven cure for cellulite up to this date. The main reason is that we do not completely understand the cause of cellulite.
However there are ways to improve the appearance. One of the first proven methods was deep mechanical massage. It simply causes your skin to puff up through deep massaging, temporarily reducing the appearance of cellulite. Later, heating through laser or radiofrequency showed some promise to improve the cellulite by strengthening the...

SmoothShapes laser treatment for cellulite
SmoothShapes combines a laser, LED light, suction and massage to smooth out cellulite. It is more effective than Velashape. Two treatments a week for 4 weeks is the recommended protocol. There is no cure for cellulite, so maintenance treatments may be necessary every 6 months or so.

Help for cellulite
I have Smooth Shapes & have seen very good results. I recommend 2 treatments twice a week for 4 weeks. We use a heating pad prior to using it as well. It is very dependent on the person doing the treatment. It requires some energy on their part. I think that it is also critical to discuss with your doctor the results you can expect to make sure you understand what is reasonable to expect.

Cellulite treatment with Smoothshapes
Smoothshapes combines a combination of two laser energies that help to mobilize the fat out of the fat cell and allow it to be taken up by the body. In addition to the laser energies, it has gentle massage and suction that help stimulate blood flow to the treated areas.
So far, I have been impressed with it (Disclosure - I am one of their consultants). Patients in my practice come in twice a week for four weeks and then come for an enhancement treatment (2-3 ) at about six months.
