DermaWave No Needle Mesotherapy
DermaWave No Needle Mesotherapy is a new device and technique to relieve the congested areas characterized as cellulite deposits without pain and without bruising. A very low energy laser and a sequence of specialized electrical currents are used in combination with a smooth, plastic disk that is gently rubbed in a rotary motion over the treatment area for about 20 minutes, repeated weekly. The only sensation is a very mild tingling. NO pain, NO needles. Patients can resume normal activities immediately afterwards and can exercise and wear a bathing suit. 8-10 treatments are suggested and then bi-monthly touchups to maintain the benefit. Missed or skipped treatments are probably not critical to the final outcome, but a consistent pattern of treatment is important to optimize the results.

A Comprehensive Approach
As a more complete approach to the cellulite problem, we do encourage patients to continue (or start) an exercise program and follow a sensible diet. Crash dieting and starvation are not necessarily and may be undesirable. The body has numerous compensatory changes it can make to offset any of your sudden food intake changes.
Treatment is safe and can be used on almost anyone. There are no internal effects. Pregnancy, severe diabetes, and certain significant medical disorders are contraindications to treatment. Extreme obesity, while not an absolute contraindication, may represent a unique metabolic state and not likely to respond effectively to treatment. Continued weight gain during the course of therapy is also undesirable and unwise.
