Like many, I debated on whether I wanted to try yet another cellulite treatment. I had Cellupulse done and really didn't see much difference.
Last night I had my first BodyFX treatment. I was told that I won't see anything really until after the 3rd treatment so this picture below was from this morning which pretty much looks like my thighs did before the treatment :). The procedure takes about 6 minutes per section and she had 3 sections per leg, so about 36 minutes in total. Overall, I found it fine from a pain perspective but I occasionally, I think when things got too hot, it was a little painful. I had Lightsheer laser hair removal and this was much less painful. I need 6 treatments I will post again after the third treatment when I apparently will see some changes.

Thanks for sharing. Please keep us updated on your final result.
My cellulite looks very similar to yours! I am curious if you have ever had any liposuction done on the backs of your legs? I did, and I am trying to compare and determine, how much it contributes to worsening of cellulite.

After 4 treatments
jmuysApril 1, 2016
I have had 4 treatments now and things seem to be progressing. Here's a few observations:
1) I guess I had kind of hoped it would all go away in one fell swoop. That's not going to happen :)
2) Me legs feel "tighter" than the were.
3) It is hard to take a "selfie" of the back of your legs. My therapist is also taking pictures so I can post all of hers at the end when I get them.
4) Initial leg circumferance was 25.5" (I think that is the waist of your average 18 year old girl - yikes). The other day I measured and it appeard to be the same. I would have thought it would be a bit smaller.
5) The treatment itself has a little bit of pain but nothing that you can't manage. If it is too painful, she can turn the machine down a bit.
Again, my therapist has indicated that I'll see the best results about 6 weeks AFTER the last treatment, which is around the last week of May.

Thanks for sharing. I started that type of treatment 2 years ago. I made it to 3 appts and life got busy so I didn't make it back. I think it did make a difference for about 6 months. Good luck and please let me know what you think about the final treatment.

To be honest I think they ripped you off. They look exactly the same. I was going to try this and definitely will save my money. I tried ultherapy on my thighs , it tighten up but more on the right than left. So maybe another session with longer concentration on left. It was not cheap but it saved me from a thigh lift so it was worth it. Just a thought and maybe cellulaze (but that scares me a bit).
Good luck
I feel your frustration.

As I mentioned I need to wait 6 weeks after the treatment to see the final results. I'll try to get pictures tomorrow to show everyone but I see and feel a difference. It's hard to tell in pictures but they are definitely smoother. Less lumpy.

Try www.fasciablaster.com. If you're in FB go to their page. 100's of 1000's of positive reviews. Maybe a good route to go?

I see a difference. I'm curious if you finished all your sessions? And do you feel better?

2 weeks after my final treatment I can see some more progress. My thighs are definitely less "lumpy" than they were.

I just bought that Ashley Black Fascia Blaster and I've used it only three times. The difference in my legs is BEYOND BELIEF. I was more than skeptical because I've got about the worst case of cellulite a woman could have.,I haven't used this thing for even a week and almost can not believe what im seeing. Firstly, let me add, it's almost hard to see past the bruising. Right now my legs look like I've been run over by a Mac truck. They say this is good. That the fascia is busting up. Maybe I'm just swollen! God I hope that's not it! I probably should wait a week or a month to say anything, to make sure (I still cannot believe that my cellulite is 90% better) but I'm so excited and want to share with someone. Listen, NO ONE knows the pain of cellulite better than me. It's rare to see someone who has it as bad as me, and although, you've got a healthy case of it, mine is/was far worse. I see all the money being spent on other methods, when this little $100 item that's yours to keep might be the answer to all our prayers.

How long will the results last? In reading about Body FX it says that it also tightens the skin. did you find that to be true and did it last months after or is it all temporary?
Thank you for sharing your experience and your pics! Looking forward to reading your next installment!
How long do you have to wait between procedures.
