Cellulite is a common concern that causes dimpling and uneven texture on the skin, most often affecting the thighs and buttocks. While many treatments focus on the surface, they often provide only temporary improvement. Cellulaze is an advanced, minimally invasive body procedure designed to address the underlying structural causes of cellulite, helping to create smoother, more even skin.

What Is Cellulaze?
Cellulaze is a minimally invasive laser treatment designed to improve the appearance of cellulite by targeting its underlying causes beneath the skin. Unlike surface-level treatments, this procedure works below the skin to release fibrous bands, reduce localized fat pockets, and improve skin thickness.
The treatment uses a specialized laser to address multiple factors contributing to cellulite in a single session. It is typically performed under local anesthesia and requires minimal downtime, making it a practical option for patients seeking long-lasting improvement.
The Benefits of Cellulaze
Cellulaze offers a targeted approach to improving skin texture and reducing the appearance of cellulite.
Common benefits include:
- Smoother skin texture in treated areas
- Reduction in dimpling and uneven contours
- Treatment of underlying structural causes
- Long-lasting results with a single session
- Minimal downtime compared to more invasive procedures
Causes of Cellulite
Cellulite is the rippling and dimpling of skin, affecting at least 85% of women. Structural factors which cause cellulite include connective tissue bands surrounding fat cells and dimpling the skin, enlarged pockets of fat trapped by the bands and pushing against the skin, and thinning of the skin making the appearance of cellulite even worse. These can all contribute to the “cottage cheese” look of cellulite. Other factors which contribute to cellulite include aging, heredity, hormones, and weight changes.
Laser Technology With Results
Previous cellulite treatments, including creams, lotions, and skin surface therapies, had to be used repetitively, and only resulted in minimal temporary improvement of cellulite. Cellulaze™, however, directly treats the causes of cellulite under the skin, using a specially designed SideLight laser to release the connective tissue bands, reduce the fat pockets, and improve the quality of the skin. Cellulaze™ has been shown to deliver long-lasting results with only a single treatment. The procedure lasts about an hour and is performed under local anesthesia. Recover time is typically no more than 1-2 days.
