Cellulite affects almost everyone to some degree. Allure Plastic Surgery Center offers Cellulaze™ to treat and reduce the appearance of cellulite on patients in Red Bank, NJ.
What Is Cellulaze™ (Cellulite Treatment)?
Cellulaze™ is the first and only FDA-approved treatment that is a minimally invasive, laser-assisted anti-cellulite treatment clinically proven to increase your skin’s natural thickness for a smoother, healthier look that lasts. It attacks the structural problems beneath the skin that cause cellulite. Clinical research shows that this treatment significantly increases skin elasticity and thickness to flatten and smooth the surface of the skin.
Benefits of Cellulaze™ (Cellulite Treatment)
Cellulaze™ is clinically proven to remove cellulite and offers the following benefits:
- Smooths and tightens skin
- Provides long-lasting results
- Typically requires only one treatment
How Is Cellulaze™ (Cellulite Treatment) Performed?
Cellulaze™ is performed using local anesthesia (numbing injections) plus oral sedation, and a very small cannula (or tube about the size of the tip of a pen) is then inserted under the skin. Cynosure’s unique SideLaze laser fiber inside the tube delivers energy directly under the skin. This increases the thickness and quality of your skin, while simultaneously releasing the fibrous bands that pull the skin down, minimizing the orange peel look associated with cellulite.
Finally, the cellulite laser is used to diminish the lumpy pockets of fat that protrude through the fibrous bands under your skin. Because the area is numbed with local anesthesia, there is minimal discomfort during the procedure. You may feel a light pressure, but it is a mild sensation.
Preparing for Cellulaze™ (Cellulite Treatments)
Because this procedure is done under local anesthesia, we recommend you do the following to minimize bruising:
- Stop smoking at least two weeks prior to the procedure
- Temporarily stop taking certain current daily medications
- Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, and certain vitamins and nutritional supplements prior to the procedure
Recovery from Cellulaze™ (Cellulite Treatments)
Following a Cellulaze™ treatment, you may experience some aches, much like after a physical workout. A compression garment is worn for two weeks. Studies show that Cellulaze™ can increase skin thickness by 25 percent and skin elasticity by 29 percent even after one year.
How Much Does Cellulaze™ (Cellulite Treatment) Cost?
The cost of Cellulaze™ varies with each patient depending on the extent of the treatment areas. We can discuss the cost with you during your consultation as well as financing through CareCredit®. We accept cash, checks, and most major credit cards and ask that full payment be made at least two weeks prior to the procedure.

If you have uneven pockets and lumps of fat and cellulite that are always present no matter how healthy and fit you are, Cellulaze™ may be right for you.
