My dr told me I was a good candidate. I work out a lot and watch what I eat mostly and still have cellulite. I swear it is much much worse after Cellfina. First off the procedure was very very painful. It hurt very much. Then there is this horrible grinding noise. Ok who cares if it works.... But I'm literally ruined. My cellulite is way worse than before. There are lumps ridges and dimples I didn't have before. I don't know what to do. I sent pictures to my doctor and he was like that doesn't look right come in when I'm back from vacation in a couple weeks. I'm really upset. There's nothing I regret more - it looks horrible

Hi. I'm scheduled to have my procedure next week, and like you my Dr. said I'm a perfect candidate. Your description of yourself sounds like me. After reading your review I'm really nervous about having it done. Do you have any pre-procedure pictures? Are the areas he treated worse than before? Hopefully your body is in the healing process and it'll get better in time. Please keep us posted.

I am curious how long did you ladies wear compression garments? I wore mine about a month..but not spanx..the real compression....i do not think spanx is enough at first..when i tried it I looked lumpy and swollen

I had similar experience. :(
Front of thighs look awful. Dimpled skin. More self conscious wearing shorts AFTER the procedure.

He recommended a foam roller which I've tried and it's really painful. I tried a roller like fascial blaster too. Super painful. Lots of bruising. Best thing I use now is Airbrush makeup by Sally Hansen. Tans my legs and makes bumps/lumps less visible.

How long has it been since your treatment? They say it takes six months to see results

Those pictures are one month post procedure. Many bumps and ridges. I don't know where my pre procedure photos are but it is much much much worse after the procedure. According to my dr I had minimal cellulite and said I'd have awesome results. I would give 100,000$ to go back to how it was before. My dr was dr John burns. He's on vacation so I can't go see him yet

Please let us know what he tells you. Hopefully he'll be able to do something else to fix it and make it look better.

How long does it usually take to see results with Celfina? Maybe you're just not there yet? That's good that at least the doctor is acknowledging that there is a problem.

i had cellfina a year ago. I now cannot wear shorts or skirts at all. Forget a bathing suit. I'm worse then when I went in. The lumps are so big you can see them thru a stretchy long skirt. Not Happy at all. As the previous person said.. I'd love to go back to my legs prior to cellfina. You can rub your hand up my thighs and FEEL big lumps and bumps that were NOT there a year ago.

I’m so sorry this happened to you! I’m quite lumpy 12 days post Cellfina and concerned if they will resolve. When could you tell something was wrong? When did the lumps seem permanent? Have you had any improvement?

I’m so sorry. Did your bumps get better? I am quite bumpy now 12 days post Cellfina. What did your doctor say?
