Does Thermage work for cellulite? I know the older skin tightening Thermage device didn't exactly get rave reviews, so I don't want to get ripped off but I'm thinking about trying Thermage for cellulite. What do you think about it?
Answer: Buyer beware! In my opinion, there is no good treatment for cellulite. Many people speak of Thermage, Titan, or Fraction lasers for the treatment of this condition, but it doesn't appear that they are effective. To date there is no peer reviewed, blinded, controlled (that's the gold standard for research) report in the entire English literature that demonstrates a measurable difference. Endermologie improves the appearnce, but needs to be done on an ongoing basis. Ask your provider for a reasonable guarantee - or at least the ability to use your fees toward something else in the office if it doesn't work!

Answer: Thermage for Cellulite
I have not seen dramatic results with improvement in cellulite with Thermage. It can help temporarily reduce the appearance of cellulite, but results can vary from one person to another. Thermage also may only work for mild-moderate cellulite. It is not effective for severe cellulite. There is a specific tip that is used to target cellulite, so make sure that tip is used instead of the general skin tightening tip.
Thermage is also dependent upon technique, so find someone who has adequate experience so they may properly assess your concerns and perform the treatment correctly. It is an expensive treatment for a temporary result.

Answer: Cellulaze Best for Cellulite Reduction Thank you for your question. I would suggest Cellulaze to reduce your cellulite. Cellulaze is the only minimally invasive laser procedure designed to attack the structure of cellulite beneath your skin. Cellulaze is backed by many years of clinical research. Studies have shown it increases the thickness of your skin by 25% and the elasticity of your skin by 29%—significant claims that haven't been made by any other treatments. Thicker and more elastic skin can help flatten and smooth the skin surface to improve the appearance of cellulite. In addition, 93% of patients surveyed were satisfied or very satisfied with their results at one year post their procedure, and all would recommend the Cellulaze cellulite laser treatment to a friend.

Answer: Cellulite can be treated by thermage
some, not all patients, have reported good reslts with cellulite after treatment by thermage and the new cellulite protocol and equipment. it's not a guarantee but there is enough improvement in some cases to warrant a try. there is no cure for cellulite and the treatment may continue as a maintenance in the years ahead.
