Tissue hardening after cellulite... Is it normal?

Dallas8973
I had Cellfina done almost 6 weeks ago. The bruising is mostly gone, but there are very hard lumps that remain, which almost make my outer thigh look worse than the cellulite did! I went to a follow up with my doctor and she reassured me it was normal, but I'm concerned. I've been doing endermologie treatments to help soften up the lumps but so far have seen little improvement (I've had 6 endermologie treatments). Is this normal, and if so when can I expect these to go away?
