Can cellulaze break up scar tissue under the skin from previous liposuction, or only break the bands?

Ann_euJul 12, 2016
I was wondering if cellulaze is strong enough to break up some scar tissue from previous lipo. I am very skinny and I would like to improve my previous lipo result, to smooth it out. With laserlipo it also will 'melt' a lot of fat, which I don't have/should not lose. Cellulaze does not 'melt' so much fat, but breaks up the bands, could it also break the scar tissue?

I find that cellfina is the best treatment for cellulite, and ultrasound only helps swelling it doesn't help skin tightening. I suggest you get venus legacy with z wave or cellutone to speed up the healing process.  Best, Dr. Emer.
