Cellulite
Cellulite is a common, harmless skin condition that causes lumpy, dimpling skin on the thighs, hips, buttocks, and abdomen.
Cellulite
Cellulite is a common condition seen mostly in adult women and has multiple causes including genetics and hormones.
One aspect that can be directly addressed with the help of the minimally invasive Cellfina treatment in New York City is the larger dimpling often seen on the buttocks and back and sides of the thighs. These dimples are caused by a pulling down on the skin by tight bands or cords.
The prevalence of cellulite has led to many attempts at treatment, including a variety of topical solutions, massage-based therapies, and surgical techniques with not-so-impressive results. Now, there are proven, medical technologies to help diminish the appearance of cellulite.

What is Cellfina™?
Cellfina™ is a minimally invasive procedure that has been clinically proven to significantly reduce the appearance of cellulite on the buttocks and thighs for up to two years. Cellfina™ is the only minimally invasive procedure for cellulite that has been FDA-approved, and the Laser & Skin Surgery Center in NYC is proud to be one of the first practices in the world to offer this groundbreaking treatment.
How does cellfina™ work?
A physician at the Laser & Skin Surgery Center of New York® will use the Cellfina™ System to target the fibrous bands under the dimpled areas of skin that cause cellulite. Releasing these bands reduces the appearance of cellulite, with results that last for up to a year.
When Will I See Results?
Within just three days after treatment, patients in the FDA-approved pivotal study reported feeling very well satisfied with their results. At three months, 85 percent of patients were satisfied. After one year, 94 percent reported to be satisfied, surpassing the satisfaction rates for all other cellulite treatments.
