Jaime S. Schwartz, MD, FACS · Answer

Thank you for your question.Cellfina is an FDA approved minimally invasive procedure that reduces the appearance of cellulite for at least two years on the buttocks and back of the thighs of women.
  
It works by releasing the internal bands that cause the cellulite dimpling and so we have not seen any fat atrophy. You should not see much of a difference with weight gain or loss but this also has not been studied.
  
Other areas of the body with dimpling, it is important to make sure it is truly cellulite before treatment.
  
It is common to have swelling bruising and firmness after the procedure. This can last for a few weeks.
  
It is different than Cellulaze which is a laser. 
  
If you have had previous poor results with cellulaze, you can still do Cellfina.
  
Cellfina has shown 100% noticeable improvement and 96% satisfaction in all patients at 2 years. 
  
Cellfina is designed to be a one time procedure. 
  
It can be used on women with all skin types but caution should be taken if theres a history of keloiding.
  
It can also be combined with other treatments such as Thermi or
  
Ulthera if skin tightening is needed.
  
We have done Sculpsure and Coolsculpting if fat reduction is wanted, but its best to wait 3 months to see the results before proceeding.
  
It can also be done at the same time as other procedures such as liposuction and BBL or as a stand alone procedure in the office.
  
Since Cellfina outcomes can be based on technique and experience, please see a board certified plastic surgeon that specializes body contouring to see if Cellfina or other treatments are available to meet your goals. 
  
Take care,

A combination approach for cellulite is needed to get the most improvement. The best treatment for cellulite is Cellfina. I recommend Cellfina in combination with Sculptra or renuva, and body treatments like Exilis Ultra/Venus Legacy, Cellutone/z wave. A VASER HI DEF procedure can be done for more contouring. See an expert for a formal evaluation. There is no cure but you can get good improvement. Best, Dr. Emer.

I don't think Cellfina would be right for you. I would fill the dents with Sculptra. Radiofrequency tightening might be helpful, but the most improvement will come from the Sculptra. It takes a series of treatments 2-3, about 2-3 months apart. Results should be very long lasting - 5 years or more.
