Best cosmetic procedure for treating cellulite on thin women?
A patient Staff asked 8 years ago I’m 5’9 & weigh 123 lbs. I’m very thin since I’m a professional model. Despite this, I still have considerable cellulite on the backs of my thighs. No matter how much I work out/diet I cannot get rid of my cellulite (I’m aware it’s mainly due to genetics). I won’t even wear shorts because of it, and it consistently costs me jobs. So my question is this: what cosmetic treatment would be best for treating moderate cellulite? And if anyone can recommend a doctor or facility in NYC that can help me.

Thank you for sharing your question here! As you know, etiology of cellulite is multi-factorial, and treatments that address several aspects of cellulite are generally more effective. One of the best treatments for cellulite is Venus Freeze (multipolar radiofrequency combined with magnetic pulsing) as it targets two issues: the excessive fat and broken collagen strands. The FDA-cleared protocol is several consecutive treatments close to each other (at our clinic, we do an average of 6 sessions 5-8 days apart). As mentioned earlier, Venus Freeze works by reducing the local fat at the cellulite area, while also stimulating the collagen production and rearrangement, and tightening up the skin to treat saggy and loose skin. The treatment is pain-free and actually quite comfortable and relaxing and there is no down time. I hope it helps and good luck!
