2.3 Months update for Cellulaze on front, sides and back of thighs/buttocks area

I have noticed a decrease in cellulite and am so excited to start seeing results. I'm still numb right above the front of my knees which is crazy that it's taking that long to get feeling back in that area. I was told by the Dr. that it is normal and usually will take about 6 months to regain all the feeling again. I have lost about 4 pounds but I think that is because i've been busting my butt in the gym 3-4 days a week doing body pump classes. Trying to really get tone but I have a lot more work ahead of me to actually start shaping my legs/butt the way I want them to look. I'm currently 5'9" and 126lbs. For me it's not a matter of losing weight as i'm happy with my weight and it really doesn't change often besides the fact I had my second child exactly 8 months ago. For me it's more of a toning issue and my upper thighs/butt area has always been the first area to show fat. So with that said I'm happy this surgery is starting to show some results! I was told the complete results will be shown around the 6th month so i'm pretty excited to know that this is not the best it will get. :) I will update again around month 4!

4 weeks post op update for Cellulaze treatment on back, front and side thighs

Still wearing these lovely compression tights 24/7 but they don't feel as tight as they use to which I hope means the swelling is finally going down. I have only very small yellow bruising here and there around the front of my thigh by the knee. Also, the small incision sites are starting to heal and i've been rubbing vitamin E on them each day to help prevent scarring. I still have very little feeling on both legs right above my knees which feels odd at times when I try to cross my legs or when my kids want to sit on my lap. I will say I can see a difference in the appearance of my cellulite and will say that it looks as if some spots have disappeared completely. So far any reduction in cellulite makes this treatment well worth it as i've tried every cream and topical treatment known with no luck in getting rid of it. I am still working out three days a week and trying to up my cardio.

2 1/2 Weeks update for Cellulaze Treament on front, back and sides of thighs

So far the bruising is going away quite a bit and is more of a yellowing color now as oppose to the bright purple it once was. I still feel as if I have swelling in some areas mostly above the knee and parts of the side of the thighs as I don't have a whole lot of feeling there. As far as the scale goes I'm actually a few pounds heavier than when I started (130lbs at start and 132lbs now) I'd like to blame that on not being able to work out for 2 weeks and swelling weight :) I finally had my first work out right at the 2 week mark and it felt pretty good to get back into the swing of things. My doctor said I was able to take off the compression garment just to put on workout pants to work out for that time but to return back to the compression garment afterwards. I will say it is not comfortable at all wearing these compression garments under clothes. I was advised by the doc that I can purchase a pair of spanx in replacement if i'd like to which I eagerly did. The original compression garment from the Dr's office has a hole cut out of the crotch area so that you don't have to remove them to use the restroom. If it wasn't for the hole then I think they would be quite unnoticeable under clothing but with the hole you for sure can't wear this under thin fabric pants i.e. yoga pants for it shows the cut out. As far as my thighs go I notice a difference but I'm hoping for truer results once the swelling is completely gone. Time will tell :)

Was very honest about the expectations during my initial consult. His assistant was very helpful and stayed an additional time to answer all of my questions and made me feel at ease about the procedure. They also made sure I had proper measurements taken so that the two compression garments they were going to give me fit perfect.
