Cellulite affects mostly women, but also some men. It is most commonly found on the buttocks and thighs of middle aged women but may appear as early as in the 20-s. There are lumps alternating with dells caused by uneven accumulation and herniation of fat lobules, separated by fibrous bands.
Many factors can determine the presence and severity of Cellulite.
  • Genetic factors are very important.
  • Obesity can play a role in some cases, although many non-obese women can have Cellulite.
  • Age often plays a major role inasmuch as the skin becomes thinner with age, and thus reveals more readily the underlying imperfections.
  • The role of smoking has not yet been entirely elucidated.

Cellulite Treatments - Thermage


Cellulite by Thermage Treatment in Chicago

No surgery. No injections. No downtime.

At Lakeviewderm we treat Cellulite with Thermage (we use the new Thermage NXT with the new 16 cm head). Several other devices have been marketed to treat Cellulite. None of them, including Thermage, does a perfect job.

Thermage tightens and thickens the skin fairly uniformly, including in the areas where the fat is herniating. Thus, in addition to reducing the diameter and circumference of the thighs and buttocks, it can reduce the lumpiness of cellulite. One treatment usually suffices.

Pain factor:Mild

Price: Depending on the area to be treated: $3000.00 to $5000.00

Treatments: One treatment usually suffices.
