What are mechanical treatments for cellulite?
An example of a mechanical treatment used for eliminating cellulite is Cellfina®. This automated mechanical therapy works by using a thin blade to release the septae. The tiny blade is inserted by making an incision. The surgeon suctions up the skin into a Cellfina® device, so the blade can be easily added. A local anesthesia is used during the procedure to reduce any discomfort.
This long-lasting cellulite treatment provides results for as long as 3 years, with results visibly seen a few days following the therapy. Minimal downtime is required, with usual side effects including a mild bruising and soreness.
