CELLULAZE® in East Greenwich and Providence, RI

Treating cellulite, re-imagined.

Cellulaze is a minimally invasive cellulite reduction treatment that uses laser energy to break down tissue fibers and restore smoothness to the skin. It is ideal for achieving a long-term reduction in cellulite in the legs, arms and other areas of the body.

WHAT IS CELLULAZE?

Cellulaze is an innovative new procedure that is revolutionizing the way cellulite is treated.

If you experience cellulite issues, you are not alone. More than 80% of women have unwanted cellulite that they would like to get rid of once and for all. Unfortunately, cellulite is a peculiar cosmetic issue that can’t be treated with traditional body sculpting procedures such as liposuction. It’s not a fat-related problem; it’s actually caused by structural issues beneath the skin’s surface. As a result, cellulite has posed a particular challenge to medical professionals offering cosmetic services.

For years, numerous cellulite treatments have been introduced to the market. Some of these have been minimally invasive “quick fixes,” while others are more extensive surgical procedures. However, none of these treatments have delivered the high-quality, long-lasting results patients desire – until now.

HOW DOES CELLULAZE WORK?

Cellulaze is a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure that is done in one session and takes approximately 2-3 hours according to these simple steps:

  • Tiny incisions the size of a pen tip are made in the treatment area
  • Dr. Doyle applies local anesthesia to the area to minimize discomfort
  • A small tube called a cannula containing a special laser fiber is inserted into the incision site
  • Dr. Doyle will guide the laser-containing cannula in order to level out bumps of fat and release the fibrous bands that pull down on the skin to cause the dimpled appearance known as cellulite, which will also thicken and tighten the skin
  • Collagen production is stimulated by the laser treatment, giving your skin a smoother texture and more depth, which will further reduce the appearance of cellulite
  • There is minimal downtime associated with this procedure, and you should be able to resume regular activities within a few days.

Cellulaze is a one-time treatment that stimulates collagen growth at the cellular level. In doing so, this cellulite treatment works with your body to produce increasingly noticeable results over the course of one or more months. Optimal results are often achieved within three months but may continue to improve even after that, helping ensure your skin stays smooth and attractive for years to come.

BENEFITS OF CELLULAZE

There are several important benefits that make Cellulaze a more effective option than other cellulite treatments:

  • Safest, most advanced cellulite treatment available
  • Minimally invasive treatment option
  • One time treatment results in smoother, thicker, tighter skin that reduces the dimpled appearance of cellulite
  • No need for multiple sessions that cost you time and money
  • Multiple areas can be treated in one session
  • More cost-effective than many other cellulite treatment options
  • No general anesthesia required
  • Minimal pain or discomfort
  • Short recovery and minimal downtime
  • Results are seen in a few months, with more pronounced long-term results becoming visible after several additional months and lasting several years

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT CELLULAZE

HOW LONG DOES CELLULAZE LAST?

The results from Cellulaze are permanent, although they may take up to a year to develop.

WHEN WILL I SEE RESULTS FROM CELLULAZE?

The Cellulaze treatment begins reducing cellulite immediately, but it can take a few months for the full results to become visible. Most patients begin to notice significant results in 3-4 months with continued improvement over many additional months.

HOW LONG DOES CELLULAZE LAST?

Cellulaze creates a long-term reduction in cellulite that has been clinically proven to last up to 7 plus years.

IS CELLULAZE PERMANENT?

Cellulaze results are not permanent, as some patients may experience the gradual return of cellulite in the years following their treatment. However, the results last many (up to 7 plus) years, and can be easily maintained with repeated treatments.

HOW MUCH DOES CELLULAZE COST?

Dr. Doyle will discuss the details of your treatment including the cost at the time of your one-on-one consultation.

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE?

Cellulaze is minimally invasive and safe for most people. That said, there are criteria for the ideal candidate.

Mostly, you need to be in good general health. If you have complicated health conditions, it’s not a good idea to increase stress on your body, even with a safe cosmetic procedure.

Preferably, Cellulaze candidates maintain a stable body weight. The reason for this is that rapid changes in body weight can undo the benefits of the procedure.

Also, it’s important to have cellulite depressions. After all, this is a specialized treatment, so we want to make sure you will gain benefits from it.

CONTRAINDICTIONS

A few specific situations can make Cellulaze unsafe or non-viable for individuals. Varicose veins top that list. More specifically, you can’t have varicose veins in the region receiving treatment. The two other common contraindications include diabetes and active skin infections. In the case of varicose veins or skin infections, you can first treat those issues, then Cellulaze is viable once again.

CAN MEN USE CELLULAZE?

Yes! It’s worth noting that cellulite is more common in women than men. This is a matter of cell structure, but plenty of men have cellulite. If they want to treat it, Cellulaze works great.

ARE THERE ANY MYTHS SURROUNDING CELLULAZE?

Yes, like other types of cosmetic treatments, there are a few myths surrounding Cellulaze. For instance, some people believe that Cellulaze provides instant results. It is possible to see visible differences after treatment, but they are mild. The truth is that results from Cellulaze treatment can take up to 12 months to fully appear. 

Another common misconception about Cellulaze is that it can get rid of cellulite permanently. Cellulaze is an effective treatment for cellulite and can yield long-lasting results, but it is not a permanent solution. Factors such as weight gain, hormones, and natural aging can impact how long your results last. 

The next myth about Cellulaze is that anyone can receive treatment. However, this is not true, as there are many people who are not ideal candidates for treatment. For example, people who are obese are not suitable candidates for treatment. People who have mild to moderate cellulite and are within their ideal weight are the best candidates for Cellulaze. 

DOES IT TIGHTEN THE SKIN?

Cellulaze is not specifically designed to tighten skin, but this is a common side effect. The laser treatment can stimulate collagen production. If this happens, the skin will tighten as a by-product of the process.

If skin tightening is your primary concern, there are treatments designed specifically for that with a higher likelihood of success.

If your skin happens to tighten after a Cellulaze treatment, we consider that a bonus.

RECOVERY AND OUTLOOK AFTER TREATMENT

Cellulaze is an outpatient procedure that allows most patients to go home right away. Some soreness and bruising may occur. Most people heal within a few days, and unless you have a complicating factor, you can usually go back to your regular routine in two to three days.

You can expect to see results starting roughly three weeks after the treatment, and the results are progressive. They will become more clear over time.
