Cellulite is an extremely common condition, one which over 80% of women will have by the age of 30. The causes of cellulite are not yet known, which only makes it even more difficult to effectively treat. Because we don’t totally understanding its cause, cellulite treatment becomes even more difficult. There are a variety of techniques now employed to treat cellulite which have shown some improve in the ‘orange peel’ appearance of the skin. One such treatment is mechanical massage, which improves microcirculation in the skin and is thought to improve drainage out of the bulging fat cells responsible for the dimpled appearance. Other methods involve radiofrequency or laser energy. Some combine all three.
In order to know which treatment may be right for you, it’s important to sit down and discuss your goals for treatment with a physician. They may explain the various cellulite treatment options and help you better understand what’s possible.

I love Dr. Weiss's office because they really know what they are doing. They use the least invasive method to get you the result you want which I really appreciate. I have had several things done there and I have been a patient for several years and I have been pleased every time. Ask for the price ahead of time. It is less then cosmetic surgery but more then a regular doctor's visit. You don't want to be shocked. It really is worth it though, I think I will be able to completely avoid ever needing to do anything drastic like a facelift.
