I had the Cellfina procedure done Thursday I’m sore but no bruising is that normal?

The side effects of Cellfina
are typically mild and resolve themselves within a few days of the treatment.
Feeling sore and tender is very normal, and some not all patients can also
experience bruising in the area. If you're
concerned about anything regarding your post-treatment,
recovery or results you should definitely book a follow-up appointment with the
doctor or provider that treated you.

some people get literally no bruising or swelling, my patients . go back to the gym after 24-72 hours.A combination approach would give the most improvement. Cellfina itself is the best treatment we have for cellulite but works best in combination with Sculptra and Renuva fat injections or bellafill both are long term; as well as body treatments like Venus Legacy/Exilis Ultra, Cellutone/Zwave. A VASER HI DEF procedure can be done for more contouring and smoothing, if you're a candidate. Smooth novathreads maybe can help build collagen as well and improve the apperance. Cellulite can't be cured, but can be improved with treatments and maintenance. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Bruising a soreness after Cellfina cellulite treatments are very normal. An absence of bruising does not mean it didn't work, just that you have very good healing!  Everyone is different, recovery is different.  The results will be seen soon.

The degree that you bruise after a procedure like Cellfina is individualized and varies among patients.  Some bruise a lot, and some not at all.  Medication and foods that contain salicylate will increase the chance of bruising.  We couple our Cellfina with Venus Legacy radiofrequency to help the recovery process, and medication that stimulates collagen synthesis such as Sculptra.  Hope that helps! -Dr. Yovino

Agree with Dr Emer, bruising may also be delayed and take up to 5-7 days to show, some patients get no bruising. This treatment is best combined with a special mix of Sculptra to stimulate collagen around the area of cellulite. 1-3 sessions depending on the extent. All the best, Dr Davin S. Lim. Brisbane.
