Cellulite Surgery

The doctors treated 52 women between the ages of 18-47 with severe cases of cellulite who had not undergone previous surgical treatments such as lipoplasty or subcision (cutting scar tissue just below the surface of the skin). After the cellulite surgery laser tightening and fat injections, patients received a massage to evenly distribute the fat and returned the next day for physiotherapeutic postoperative treatments. The follow-up period ranged from a year to almost 3 years, and nearly 85% of the patients rated their results as "good" or "excellent".

Various methods of treating cellulite have been proposed including:

- Liposuction
- Fat Injections
- Lower Body Lift
- Endermologie
- Injection lipolysis
- Herbal and dietary supplements
- Creams and lotions

While some of these procedures, such as fat injections and lower body lift, have been shown to be beneficial in appropriately selected patients, others such as injection lipolysis and lotions do not have any scientific data supporting their efficacy. Liposuction cellulite, while highly effective in reducing fat deposits and improving contour, sometimes makes cellulite appear worse.

YAG laser lipolysis and autologous fat transplantation are proven procedures for various aesthetic conditions, and, the use of these same modalities for cellulite surgery treatment, may offer both a safe and effective new alternative. "Although there is currently no 'cure' for cellulite, this study provides hope for people who have the most severe cases," says Foad Nahai, MD.
