Good candidates are bothered by visible cellulite on the thighs, buttocks, or abdomen and want a non-surgical option. A consultation determines candidacy.
Your provider examines the treatment area, discusses your goals, and recommends a device and session plan suited to your skin and the severity of your cellulite.
You relax while your provider applies the device to the treatment area. Most sessions are comfortable, with mild pressure or warmth and no need for anesthesia.
Most people resume normal activities right away. Smoother texture typically develops over the following weeks as the skin responds to treatment.
You may notice mild redness or warmth in the treated area that typically resolves within a few hours.
Any temporary swelling subsides and you can continue normal activities without restriction.
Skin texture often continues to improve as underlying tissue responds to treatment.
Most people see their fullest results, which are typically assessed at a follow-up visit.
Those noticing textured or uneven skin on the thighs, buttocks, or abdomen who want a non-surgical option.
Those who want visible improvement without surgery or extended recovery time.
Those at a stable, healthy weight who want to refine skin texture rather than reduce fat volume.
Most people describe the sensation as mild pressure, warmth, or a pinching feeling rather than pain. Topical numbing is not typically required, though your provider can discuss comfort options during your consultation.
Results vary by method and individual factors such as skin quality and lifestyle. Many people maintain their improved texture for a year or longer, and periodic touch-up sessions can help sustain results over time.
Most treatments involve little to no downtime. You may notice mild, temporary redness, swelling, or bruising in the treated area, which typically resolves within a few days to two weeks.
Unlike surface-level massage or creams, in-office treatments target the fibrous bands beneath the skin that cause dimpling, which is why results tend to be more noticeable and longer-lasting.
This depends on the device used and the severity of your cellulite. Some methods address the fibrous bands in a single session, while others involve a short series of sessions for gradual improvement.
These treatments are generally well tolerated, with side effects typically limited to temporary redness, swelling, or mild bruising. A consultation helps confirm whether you are a good candidate based on your health history and skin.
