I decided to try this new procedure for the dear cellulite most women have and came upon this revolutionary procedure cellulaze. However I did not realize it could cause me to get "erythema ab-igne" a direct result of this procedure and this may cause cancer. That's all I need is to die for vanity's sake. I would not recommend this procedure...Don't do It!!!!

She is too aggressive without warning the side effects. She seems to be unconcerned about my outcome saying sometimes this happens. She is open to a few laser treatments but she seems to think its hyper vascularity. Either way prognosis is poor and this is what I am left with uglier legs and no remedies. So much for shorts and bathing suites next summer too. Its my fault should have investigated more; however, there is not much on the possible side affects and nothing about possible cancer as a result of this procedure.

It's unfortunate you didn't have a positive experience. How long ago did you have your procedure? How many days post op were your photos taken? Did you find the treatment itself painful? Thank you for taking the time to share with us. 

Are you saying that your legs still look like this 9 months after the procedure?
Yes!
I am so sorry this happened to you... I hope it gets better with time..... It sometimes does.. But I know it also may need some other procedures.... I hope you are not in pain...
It itches all the time so I have bruising on top of the mottled look of my thighs.
I want to thank you very much for taking the time to let everyone here know this could happen. I too would NOT like to remove my cellulite in exchange for a possible cancer. I have breast cancer already and having a double mastectomy and thought that while my surgeon was removing fat anyway to transfer to my breast why not treat the cellulite at the same time while I'm under right!. 2 for 1, but no thanks, will try something else. Bless your heart for sharing.
good idea I just had a women in my office that told me of the craters in her legs due to liposuction gone wrong.
THIS HAPPENED TO ME! I had cellulaze 18 months ago. This is the same thing that happened to me. I am so sorry. It is permanent. It doesn't go away. I am in the same boat and feel your pain tremendously. I can't wear shorts or a bathing suit with feeling like everyone is staring at my legs. Although, I will say my dermatologist diagnosed it as Livedo Reticularis. He knew it when he saw it and said it was caused by trauma to the area.
hey i'm curious did you ever recover or get this fixed??
