  • Posted to Had Cellulaze Done Monday March 26th - New York, NY on 6 Sep 2012

    Amber2001, this saddens me.  I am so sorry to hear about your lack of results and total frustration.   I think we were all so hopeful that this was it- the magic bullet- the cure all to this thing that anyone afflicted by it HATES so much.    I'm sorry your experience with it was not good.   I had results beyond my expectations - who knows why it works for some and not others.   But my heart just sank when I read your comment- I would have felt the same way - not as much about the money - but about having your hopes dashed when you were just so dang excited about the possibility of being free of it.    Good luck with the road ahead.   Sending you a hug, Laurel C
  • Posted to Cellulaze Patient Review - Durham, NC on 29 Aug 2012

    cellulaze patient:   I am about 4 months out now and I would say in the last few weeks my leg sensations have totally returned to normal.   My skin feels fine to touch, although when I run or spin, I do feel a bit odd in my bum cheeks.    So I guess that remains.   And I too got a LOT of spider veins, which my MD said the company told him nothing about this as a possible side effect.  I have read here that a lot of gals are seeing those little veins pop up after the procedure.   However, I had great improvement in the treated areas so I view this as a fine trade off and I will figure out a time to get those pesky little guys injected.    I saw my MD recently for a check up and he said I got about 70% improvement - and I finally lost those ridiculous 5lbs that had creeped up on me, so overall, I am totally pleased with the results!  I posted new pics on my review.   He says I should still continue to see improvement over the coming months and years, so we'll wait and see.  But for now, I am very pleased.   I can't wait to see your next set of pics - the ones you posted I see a lot more smoothness.  A LOT!    Please keep us updated on your progress.   This is a long journey for us all.  I am grateful for this website, as I didn't tell anyone but one person about doing this and it's nice to have folks going through the same thing.   Sending you a hug, LC

    Congrats ihatecellulite!  I think 50-60% improvement is GREAT and you still have room to go with the coming months!   Lotsalipo, I think that anything above 50% is amazing.   Seriously, if someone said I can give you 50% less cellulite in 3 months, you wouldn't have believed them.   This is something that many of us have been cursed with for years - and 50% improvement is significant!   We have to set realistic expectations.    We all want perfection- but that's just not realistic sadly!   But we can make ourselves better and be grateful for all we do have.    It's a risk that it will work for a person's particular body type.  I just knew that I was willing to try it for the possibility of having improvement.  Turned out, I was one of the lucky ones.    But this website and this little community is so great.  I felt so supported and loved by all these strangers- but we all shared a common goal and there is nothing like girl love to get your through rough times.   Like my friend on here Aging Maven, we take risks and in the end, need to be grateful for what we do have in life, not focus on what we don't have.    I wish you loads of luck Lotsalipo.   It's a tough road in the beginning healing, but hopefully you will achieve a nice level of improvement that will have you in those shorter skirts come New Years Eve!  xoxo
