cellulaze

Cellulaze using Smartlipo technology to treat cellulite. Cellulaze attacks the three elements of cellulite. Those include vertical bands that cause indentations. The “popcorn” herniations of fat are melted by a highly fat-selective laser wavelength. The dermal bands which cause indentations are divided, and the thinned-out dermis is treated by the thermal effect of the laser.  This causes a resurfacing of the dermis from below which, over three to six months, results in an increase in dermal thickness that lasts for up to two years.

The procedure is performed as an office procedure under local (tumescent) anesthesia. Depending on the size of the area treated, the procedure takes two to three hours. The patient is encouraged to stay well-hydrated for the first few days postoperatively. The patient is placed on oral antibiotics for five days starting the day before surgery. Oral pain medication is prescribed for the first few days and the patient is instructed to wear a compression garment to the treated area for two to four weeks.
