Possible corrective procedure for bad lipo results to thighs? (Photos)

Cellfina can be used on small areas but larger ones will cause the front of the knees to drop and thermiRF with thermage or ultherapy would be useful. I inject sculptra to this area to get more collagen. Sometimes a VASER hi def treatment is needed with fat grafting to improve this.  Please see a 4D contouring physician.  Best, Dr. Emer.

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.

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,
