Thank you for your question. Unfortunately,  CoolSculpting does not treat cellulite. Speak to your chosen provider about other options. All the best. Regards,

CoolSculpting is not FDA approved for cellulite. And in spite of the claims of many different machines to help with cellulite, there is no good treatment for this dumpling of the skin. CoolSculpting does smooth bulges around the knees, and does appear to have skin tightening benefits. Your best bet is to see a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery who also does CoolSculpting. You will benefit from his or her experience with all forms of body smoothing procedures.

CoolSculpting is not an effective treatment for cellulite.  I recommend making an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to get the best advice possible.Best of luck to you.

This area is tough to treat but the best results come from thermiRF, cellfina, fat injections and other skin tightening devices like ultherapy, thermage, or venus legacy.  I suggest seeing an expert.  Best, Dr. Emer.

CoolSculpting is not a treatment for cellulite. You may want to consider ThermiTight which works well above the knees.
