Cellulaze is the only minimally invasive laser procedure designed to attack the structure of cellulite beneath your skin. It delivers long-lasting results after only one short treatment.

A very small tube is inserted under the skin and the laser fiber inside of the tube delivers energy directly to the treatment area. This increases the thickness and quality of your skin, while simultaneously releasing the fibrous bands that pull it down—minimizing the orange peel look associated with cellulite. Finally, the cellulite laser is used to diminish the lumpy pockets of fat that protrude though the fibrous bands under your skin.

Cellulaze delivers best results for people who are not significantly overweight, but who have mild to moderate cellulite on their thighs. We can provide personalized consultations to determine if you are an appropriate candidate.
