50 Y/o at Peace with Cellulite - Marina Del Rey, CA

I have always hated my cellulite! Always! I think it arrived at age 20? 30 years later I am a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with a possible answer. My colleague and mentor Dr. Grant Stevens welcomed me to his Institute for a treatment that rids you of that dreaded Cellulite. I had the treatment yesterday at his Institute and he performed the procedure. WOW! I usually find myself very critical of other clinics.... but this is not a clinic it is an "Institute." A place where the whole staff/family makes you feel welcomed and secure. I was initially mortified about showing my "stuff" to Dr. Stevens, but the whole atmosphere of the Institute made me feel at ease. So at ease that I was no longer insecure about my "stuff." I can only hope and strive for the same feeling for my patients. I truly can't say enough about the doctor and his staff. Words will never do it - so if you hate your cellulite like 99% of America I strongly recommend you pay a visit to Dr. Stevens!

So let's talk about the treatment. It took about an hour for everything, but this may vary depending on the amount of cellulite you have. I had the average amount of cellulite according to Dr. Stevens. Let's be real - unfortunately we all have it. You can drive yourself to the procedure which I find fascinating. It was painless - no more than a mosquito bite and coming from Minnesota that says a lot! I am traveling back home today and I am writing this from my flight, so this is something you can do from any distance. I am a little sore but am planning to go to my am yoga class before surgery tomorrow. I have only needed Advil for minimal discomfort. The only thing that I did not expect was a bit of drainage from the tiny holes used to break up the cellulite. So expect drainage for a day or two. (and, do not sleep on your favorite linens!) I can already tell this is going to be a success for me. Although bruised and swollen the dimples are significantly less already. Unreal! I have hated this "stuff" for my entire adult life - and now I believe there is an answer. And, I am critical so please trust me when I say I am excited!

Thank you to Dr. Stevens and his whole staff for the welcoming, positive experience that is changing my life for the better. If you hate your cellulite - I strongly recommend you pay a visit to Dr. Stevens at Marina Plastic Surgery, Marina Del Ray, California.
