Hello, I'm a 48 year old HIV+ woman and for years I've been extremely subconscious about the cellulite on my thighs and buttocks. I've heard of ultrasonic cavitation and surgery scares me. However, I've heard about the contraindications for autoimmune diseases. I've researched this often and I've been unable to locate a concise answer.
