“Little Results, Much Pain”

Not Worth It
Spent: $4,500 in Livonia, MI
I had several mesotherapy injections on my thighs a couple of years ago for my "horrible" cellulite. I even had liposuction a few years earlier. The doctor told me on the day of my surgery that liposuction does NOT help the appearance of cellulite. Nice to know when you are standing there with an IV in your arm. So I tried mesotherapy. I had several (close to 10) treatments, each costing at least $500-$700.
My thighs may have slimmed slightly, but I see absolutely NO difference in the appearance of the cellulite. I have come to the conclusion that there is no cure, and I have to live with it. After trying to treat it since a teenager, and I am now 49 years old, I am giving up. Ladies don't ruin your life worrying about this like I have. I have spent thousands of dollars and my thighs look the same as they did 20 years ago.
This may be helpful for minimal cellulite -- but don't ever expect a miracle.
