Those ugly bumps on your backside, or those sudden dimples that appeared after your first pregnancy. Perhaps it was the weight gain, or stress, or hormones. Whatever their cause, no one likes having cellulite. Getting rid of cellulite is something every woman wishes they could do. We buy creams and lotions, all in the hopes that there is a magic potion that will rid of us of this awful skin curse. Unfortunately there is no way to totally remove cellulite, but there are a number of devices and treatments now available to help diminish the appearance of cellulite and remove it, at least temporarily. These exciting new treatments are often done during a lunch break, and may not require any downtime.

Call today to book a consultation to come in and discuss your options and goals for improving cellulite. Often you may be able to receive treatment the same day.

First of all, I was really impressed with Dr. Pilest's web site. I learned some very important points even before seeing him. Second, his consultation with me was very complete. After 3 children and a body I want to hide, I was dreading baring my belly. But, he made me immediately comfortable and explained not only WHY I had stretch marks, but the difference in the old ones and the new ones, what I'd have to do to prepare for laser treatments since I've got some dark skin ancestry (no one ever asked me about that before or explained why it was important!) We're tackling the red marks first with Vmax laser and I've seen some very obvious improvements after just a couple of sessions. Later we'll get into the white marks with Fraxel. I know what to expect (apparently no miracles here) but I appreciate the candid assessment. It's nice to know the limitations. The nursing staff is the best. Joanne spent plenty of time reassuring me, re-explaining the process and generally being a professional hand holder. I feel very confident and comfortable with Dr. Pilest.

Treatment Tips
Always seek treatment with an experienced physician.
Be willing to travel a bit for the best possible treatment.
During your consultation, ask questions regarding results, concerns, and after care.
Cellulite is not well-understood by many cosmetic physicians, let alone the medical profession at large. We have assembled some of the field’s leading researchers to provide you information you can trust regarding cellulite removal and the condition in general. The Patient’s Guide is published to give those with the condition a place where they can find physician-written information from industry experts.
