Answer: Cellfina does not cause fat atrophy Cellfina has a vacuum tissue stabilized guidance system for the infiltration of local anesthesia to prevent pain during the procedure and for the precise subcision of the connective tissue bands that cause the cellulite dimples. These connective tissue bands are called fibrous septae. The procedure targets the fibrous septal bands and does not effect the fat cells and will not cause fat atrophy. Cellfina results in long term smoothness of the treated areas.

Answer: Cellfina gets rid of cellulite bands Cellfina works by cutting the fibrous bands that attach to your skin which create cellulite dimples. The cellfina device will not affect the fat cells. The motorized blade cuts those fibers selectively and the fat cells are left untouched.

Answer: Cellfina does not appear to cause fat atrophy or worsening of skin laxity Hello and thank-you for your question!Cellfina targets the fibrous bands which are the source of the dimpling in cellulite. Cellfina is most effective for the treatment of dimples and depressions of the buttocks and outer thighs. Care is taken not to overlap treatment areas to prevent excessive release. We have not seen fat atrophy or worsening of skin laxity after Cellfina treatment.Best Regards, Andrew Lyos, MD, FACS
