Cellulaze - Minimally Invasive Laser Procedure

Cellulaze is a minimally invasive laser procedure and a revolutionary one too. The cannula used for the treatment is of a small diameter. The incisions for the procedure are tiny in size. Cynosure® introduced this treatment to the cellulite reduction market and it defeats a host of other products that claim to get rid of cellulite but don’t. The surgery has rapidly grown in popularity since its launch and FDA approval. It was featured in the TV show “The Doctors,” WCBS-TV, WABC-TV and the Marie-Claire magazine. What’s more, it has acquired billboard space in Times Square till the end of 2012.

More about Cellulaze Cellulite Laser Treatment

The treatment is carried out utilizing Cynosure’s sophisticated cellulite laser workstation Cellulaze. This treatment is the only minimally invasive laser procedure specially developed to treat the structural causes of cellulite under the skin. The procedure can be carried out with assured great results on women who are not too overweight and have only slight to medium cottage cheese buildup on their buttocks or thighs.

Using a marker, the plastic surgeon marks the regions that need treatment. He then makes some tiny incisions (approximately the size of a pen nip) in the skin. The next step is the application of a numbing solution or local anesthesia. The Cellulaze laser fiber threaded through the cannula is passed through the incision site. Utilizing the SideLaze3D™ Cellulaze laser fiber, the plastic surgeon flattens the lumpy fat pockets, fixes the issue of dimpling by setting free the fibrous bands that pull down the skin, and encourage the secretion of collagen to increase skin elasticity and depth. The three chief structural problems responsible for cellulite development are thus addressed. The procedure takes a maximum of two hours to complete.
