Am I a good candidate for Celifina to reduce the celluite on my thighs and buttocks? (Photos)

Cellulite is very common and
affects almost 90% of women. Cellfina is a proven effective treatment for
cellulite and the best way to assess if you are a good candidate for the
procedure is to book a complimentary in person consultation with a board
certified plastic surgeon. Typically, anyone between the ages of 20 and 65 who
has cellulite is a good candidate for Cellfina. If you have excess skin laxity
or have experienced extreme weight gain or weight loss, however, this could
have an effect on your final results, so it`s always good to get assessed by an
expert doctor in person before you decide to undertake any kind of procedure.

A combination approach would give the most improvement. you have more waves then dinples, and cellfina is best for dimples greater than waves.  Cellfina itself is the best treatment we have for cellulite but works best in combination with Sculptra and Renuva fat injections or bellafill both are long term; as well as body treatments like Venus Legacy/Exilis Ultra, Cellutone/Zwave. A VASER HI DEF procedure can be done for more contouring and smoothing, if you're a candidate. Smooth novathreads maybe can help build collagen as well and improve the apperance. Cellulite can't be cured, but can be improved with treatments and maintenance. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question!  Cellulite is extremely genetic and appears for reasons that don't seem at all fair. It is also mostly only seen in women and increasing weight does appear to make cellulite worse. The good news is: It's not your fault. The bad new is: The cellulite you have is made up of 2 different types: dimpling cellulite and linear cellulite. Unfortunately, the treatment, Cellfina, is only effective with dimpling cellulite. With that being said, if you were to come to my practice, I have other options that you may wish to explore.Firstly, I offer a treatment called Morpheus8, a micro-needling device that uses radio frequency energy to reduce fat/ bulges and tighten skin. This comes in treatments of three and may really help with the appearance of you linear cellulite.We also are soon introducing a new injectable product that is not yet on market. This new product dissolves collagen fibers which causes the pulling of indentations inwards, ultimately removing the quilting look. I recommend a formal in-person evaluation for your next step in order for you to achieve the best results. Good luck!

Cellfina is an expensive form of subcision which works for deep and sharp dimples. Based on your picture, you don't have any of those dimple types. I recommend reading more about the process prior making any decision. You can benefit from Sculptra injection to enhance the mild unevenness in the buttock area, a process which is much cheaper and we perform on regular basis in Salt Lake city.

I have treated patients with your cellulite type and they have been very happy with the results. 

Dimples of cellulite on the buttocks and thighs respond very well to Cellfina, with very long lasting results.  It is not uncommon to see a very fit person with these characteristic imperfections of cellulite.   It is wonderful that you now have a great treatment to take care of this annoying issue.
