Reducing the appearance of cellulite is one of the toughest goals to achieve in skin care. Millions of creams, treatments and lotions have been tried over the years, only to fail to make a dent in those unsightly dimples on our skin. Fortunately researchers have been hard at work on the tricky problem of cellulite. A number of new treatments are now available which target cellulite. Some use lasers to heat up the underlying skin, others use a form of mechanical message, while still other treatments aim to improve cellulite with radiofrequency energy. A number of new devices utilize a combination of all the above in an effort to improve cellulite as much as possible. Nothing yet is the perfect cure for cellulite, but these new technologies are often able to improve the appearance of it.
It’s important to understand the limitations of treating cellulite. If you go out looking for a ‘quick fix’, you are setting yourself for disappointment. If you are hoping to reduce the appearance of cellulite on your body, call today to schedule a consultation so a physician may sit down with you and discuss your options for treatment.

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.
