Cellulaze

No woman wants the lumps, bumps, and dimples of cellulite on her thighs.

Contrary to common belief, cellulite is not a fat problem. Its characteristic dimpling occurs because of three structural factors:

Cellulaze, Walnut Creek, California
  • Bands of connective tissue under the skin are tight and inflexible.
  • Pockets of fat push up around the connective tissue, against skin.
  • The skin is too thin, revealing the trapped fat.

Many pills, creams, and massage techniques claim to improve cellulite with continued use. But Cellulaze™ is the only treatment that targets deeper structural problems that cause cellulite, rather than just addressing the surface. Cellulaze is effective, and results from a single treatment last up to a year – possibly longer with daily activity and a healthy diet.

Dr. M. Christine Lee at The Skin and Laser Treatment Institute has extensive training and experience in medical and cosmetic laser treatments. She works closely with manufacturers in the research and development of many emerging techniques.

The minimally invasive Cellulaze procedure requires only a few little incisions, precisely placed. Through those openings, Dr. Lee inserts a small tube. A laser fiber inside that cannula delivers energy just under the skin to release fibrous bands of connective tissue. It reduces the orange-peel look of fat pushing against the skin by breaking up lumpy fat deposits. As a finishing touch, laser energy also improves the quality and thickness of skin by stimulating collagen production. The whole thing typically takes about two hours.

Dr. Lee Christine - Cellulaze
Cellulite is the main cause of many women avoiding their favorite swimsuit or summer shorts! You can now put your worries to rest with, Cellulaze! A technology that gives you unbelievable results with no downtime. Many patients say that they received results that they never thought were possible, and with consistency.

The wait is over. Finally there is a cellulite treatment clinically proven to be more effective. The Cellulaze treatment is the first and only procedure to attack the very structure of cellulite. The only way to achieve results like this in just one treatment. You have tried hiding your cellulite putting away your shorts wearing cover ups – I work, have free pants in the summer and pants of course throughout winter – never anything really tight where you can see it and definitely avoid shorts. You have tried everything to try and get rid of your cellulite. Exercise, diets. I tried dieting exercising topical creams and nothing really seemed to make a big difference id o aerobics, I walk on the treadmill I ride a bike but I didn’t have much success getting rid of those problem areas. You have tried lotions and massage, the cellulite creams the little buffers that you rub on your legs, I tried the little pills that they sold for vitamins whatever they were. I was trying topical treatments at first and they don’t deliver. I tried every single cream in the world and no results. I hear about Cellulaze form a friend and I was a bit skeptical, I mean I tried various creams and nothing works but I figured I had nothing to lose so why not give it a try. If you are like most you will love the Cellulaze treatment it is the first procedure approved and proven effective redoing the appearance of cellulite after just one treatment. It is amazing breakthrough. Cellulaze is offering women hope I mean I see it as I hope and women are coming in here and they are just so happy to have something that offers them the ability to treat specifically cellulite through a procedure that can address all the components of the anomaly of cellulite. When many patients come into me as a plastic surgeon they have issues and many things on their body that they can’t control – if they are overweight they can lose weight, they can change the colour of their hair but cellulite is something that they cannot do anything about and before Cellulaze we couldn’t do anything about it now we can. Cellulite occurs when underlying tissue bands stiffen and the fat cells they surround enlarge using up against the skin creating that cottage cheese effect. The Cellulaze procedure modifies that structure reducing the appearance of that cellulite in a single treatment. The Cellulaze based treatment is fairly simple for the patient it is done in the office, we numb the area use a minimally invasive technique and then they can go right home to resume their normal daily activities. During their procedure tiny laser fibers are inserted under the skin which gently heats skin and disrupts or melt the fat. Next the laser releases or dissipates the fibers that pull down on the skin and create a dimpling effect. This release creates a smoother look. Finally the laser uses energy to stimulate collagen production to improve your sins depth and elasticity for more even healthier appearance. What is so exciting about cellulose is that it is the first minimally invasive laser treatment that has been cleared and beneficial to patients that have cellulite. The thing that I love is that it is one treatment, and I think patients like that. This is very easy this is virtually pain free and you definitely – there is no downtime. It turned out to be a very simple procedure. I could see the results probably into that week.  You could see the difference from my leg and that is when I was shocked even more – within a day or 2 I was fine I was able to run the office with no problem. 2 things really need to make this revolutionary one is the degree of Cellulite improvement we are seeing markedly higher improvement levels of cellulite that we have with any other treatments in the past but secondly we’re not seeing that transient nature in the improvement. We are seeing results at 6 months and 1 year which is a great breakthrough, and that is only own treatment. Three is a significant smoothening out of the areas of dimpling and bulging and there is a change in the skin integrity. These are very different changes that have not been able to be noticed to this degree of other methods of treatment for cellulite. What is greet about Cellulaze is that it works and it has minimal downtime and that it is one treatment. The patients love the end results, I feel very good I feel sexy I feel very confident and I enjoy the way I look now when I see myself in the mirror and even when I go out to a public area I have to wear a bathing suit or shorts. I feel a lot more confident that I can put on shorts in the summer time without feeling embarrassed and covering up. It has been a year and the results are great and the skin is definitely tighter and the area is so much tighter than I could ever get from working out. I feel comfortable from wearing shorts in public. Oh I love it I would do it again! I am just so pleased with the results I have had. Me feeling comfortable enough to wear a bathing suit – that is what makes me happy! I don’t exercise and the cellulite didn’t come back so that pretty much surprised because no matter what you always feel like the cellulite is going to come back. Like I said a year later there is no cellulite there. It is very unusual to have a cellulite treatment to have this great a response positive response from our patients. Patients across the country are thrilled at the lasting results at their single Cellulaze treatment. I would recommend cellulose treatment to my friends to my family because it worked for me – I would definitely on hundred percent recommend Cellulaze to my friends. It is relatively painless and the recovery process is very easy and it helps and it makes a big difference in your appearance. Cellulaze treatment is totally worth it and I would definitely recommend it to friends and family. It is really good and there is little to no pain and it is a fast procedure and you are in and out quickly I would defiantly recommend it to anybody. It has been over a year and the results are still there I am happy. Everything is smooth and perfect. I have to say it is great and I would definitely recommend it so put on your shorts your skirts your bathing suits and bear it all again. The wait is over asking your doctor about the Cellulaze treatment today.


You’ll be comfortable with local anesthesia throughout the in-office treatment, feeling only light pressure. You might be a bit achy the next day, as if you’ve had a workout at the gym. Some light bruising can occur, and you may need to wear a compression garment for a few days. You can resume normal activity within 48 hours. You’ll see results right away, and continued improvement over the next three months to a year. Thanks to Dr. Lee’s expertise, scars are small and barely visible.

Cellulaze results are proven through clinical research – 93 percent of surveyed patients were satisfied a year after the procedure, and all of them said they’d recommend it to a friend. You may expect skin thickness to increase by 25 percent, and elasticity to improve by 29 percent.

Cellulite is not a fat problem – it’s a structural problem with skin. Cellulaze offers an effective solution.
