Cellfina for cellulite: The 5-year post-treatment results are in!

Published on Dec 28th, 2017 by Michael Kaminer, MD

Before and after photos of Cellfina treatment for celluliteCellfina has become the gold standard for treatment of cellulite on the buttocks and thighs. Based on discoveries made at SkinCare Physicians in Boston, and since its FDA approval several years ago, Cellfina has quickly become the standard by which all cellulite therapies are measured. 99% of patients will achieve noticeable improvement in dimples and smoothness, and our dermatologists now have proof that those results are long lasting.

At SkinCare Physicians, our dermatologists recently completed the latest aspect of our research into the efficacy of Cellfina. We saw patients at their 5-year follow up visit, and all of the patients that we evaluated were extremely satisfied with their results. Surprisingly, many of the patients looked better five years after treatment than they did even just a few short months after their procedure. There appears to be something about the Cellfina treatment that continues to improve cellulite over time. This is completely different from every other cellulite treatment on the market, where the results are temporary and repeat treatments are needed.

Cellfina is a one time, single treatment with a quick recovery and predictable results. Cellulite improves within a few weeks, and then continues to get better over the course of many years. This has been a staggering observation for those of us who are doing research into the effectiveness of Cellfina.

In addition, at SkinCare Physicians we have pioneered new techniques to achieve results that were previously impossible. We can treat the buttocks and thighs in one session, and are now able to treat both large and small dimples with impressive effectiveness. Patients are back to their normal activity within about three to four days, and almost everyone is back at work the next day. Results seem to evolve over the first four to six weeks, with the average patient rating their satisfaction between 8/9 out of 10 by their six week follow up visit.

Clearly, Cellfina has changed the landscape for cellulite treatment. At SkinCare Physicians, our dermatologists have taken the quality of the results to new heights, and now have data to show that we can improve cellulite in patients treated with Cellfina for a period of at least five years. Call us or come see us to find out more about what Cellfina can do for you.
