Lots of discoloration under the skin as well as hard bumps. I'm going to give it a full six months to hopefully resolve. Good improvement of cellulite otherwise!

How does it look now? Did your bumps resolve? I’m 12 days post Cellfina and quite lumpy.

I have to be completely honest and say that i feel the procedure was a waste of money. It looks like i had nothing done. I had pictures posted at one point but took them down because i hated looking at them. The back of my legs look worse to me. I have started running and doing weight training. I am hoping that will help the appearance. I hope this doesnt discouraged you too much but this is my subjective experience. Good luck!

Thank you for your reply. I'm sorry to hear that your legs look worse.. thanks for your honesty. I'm worried about ending up with a hard bump, or many bumps because I have several now. How long did it take for most of your hardness to go away? Did the discoloration resolve?

I continue to have one hard area deep in my left buttock. I can only feel it when i press deeply. It's not noticable to anyone but me. I think the coloration looks better. However, sometimes I notice there is a slight hue discoloration when I'm in certain lighting. Again, we are always our worst critics and Im probably picking it apart with a keen eye so to speak. Good luck with whatever you decide.

It's hard to get a great picture when you're taking it yourself. I still have bruising in a few spot and have felt large hard areas in my bum. My guess is it's possible scar tissue. I'm going to use the foam roller at the gym to try to work those spots out.

I definitely see improvement! You look great so far. You're lucky all your bruising is gone. It's been two months for me and my bruises are still bad.

You look great! You might also want to get a massage and have them focus on those areas since it's hard to do yourself and know exactly where to target. Thanks for sharing your pictures and information with us!

It's been 3 weeks since the procedure. My follow up was today but unfortunelty I had to reschedule. The first week was rough after the tumescent fully wore off. Getting on and off the toilet was the hardest. When I look it the mirror Im honestly not sure if I see improvement. Its hard to be objective when you see yourself everyday. I still have a couple areas that seem discolored from bruising as well as marks from where the lidocaine was injected. I know that will take time to resolve.

I was so deeply bruised-black. I was heading to HI 6 weeks later and could not expose my legs - also, I had ripples down the backs of my legs with saggy skin. Completely disappointed. It takes about 4 months for fat the short and some improvements to show. No improvemrnta will happen to waves, traditional cellulite. On dimples and then some flatten out in an odd way.

Yea, I have to say that i'm not thrilled with the results. I would say they are average at best. I still have discoloration. I think my best bet would try to consistently go to the gym and try to tighten up everything and I think that would help with my overall satisfaction.
