I had my 3rd and last child at 41 yrs old . After the birth of my child the cellulite appeared. I tried diet and exercising but it did not help. I even had thigh liposuction which made it worse. So after much research I decided to have the cellulaze procedure with Dr DiBernado . Dr DiBernado was very knowledgable and was upfront with me as to what to aspect. His staff are very professional. His OR staff our kind and they mademe feel at ease. Since I am an
physician it was quite different being on the other side . The procedure was alittle painful. The most pain is the initial anesthetic injections.
Post op day one I rested but I did not need any pain meds. I did need pain meds once the anesthetic wore off the procedure day. I'm so happy I did this procedure. If I have 50% improvement I'll be happy. I once had legs like Beyoncé. I know I can't get them all the way back but if I can wear my bathing suite without a cover up I will be so happy.

Did you get liposuction all over the thighs? Can you post picks from the front & back? I'm considering but I keep hearing that you can possibly have sagging.

Yes I had liposuction on my inner and outer thighs 3 years ago. I did make my cellulite worse. But my thighs were much smaller. I think I had some sagging from weight lost and not exercising . I've been exercising for 2 years and I did not see any changes in my thighs. I'm hopeful once I can work out again I'm gonna do a spin class and start lifting weights to tone my thighs more. I'll post more pics. I have some cellulite on the back of my thighs but its not to bad...

I can see a major difference in the slimness of your thighs but I also see where you've lost weigh & just perhaps some sagging but I have the same issues but my legs are much larger than yours. I think lots of weightlifting & cycling we must also do squats & lungs. That should help but take it easy. The time will come & I'm sure you'll see a major change. Continue to wear your garment.

does it tighten your skin ? I need help in this department too

My doctor said it will tighten my skin. I had some lose skin from the weight lost. He did not think I was a candidate for a thigh lift.

Yes I got liposuction on my inner and outer thighs 3 years ago. I looked good in my clothing but it made the cellulite worse. I have my post op check this Friday so I will post more pics. So far I do see changes but I realize I'm alittle swollen .
