Cellulite Removal At-A-Glance
Cost & Pricing
Fotona TightSculpting costs $450 per session, Endermologie $450 per session, while Subcision ranges between $1,200 and $3,000 per treatment session.
What To Expect
Each session starts with consultation. Treatments may involve gel, eyewear, or numbing. Non-invasive feels warm or pressurized; subcision needs anaesthesia. Sessions customize comfort and goals.
Mechanism of Action
The treatments target fibrous septae, improve circulation, stimulate collagen, and remodel fat cells, lifting tethered skin and reducing dimpling for smoother, firmer body contours.
Benefits & Results
Cellulite treatments smooth dimples, tighten skin, enhance elasticity, improve body contours, reduce fat pockets, boost confidence, and deliver firmer, more youthful-looking results over time.
Discomfort & Pain Level
Most treatments are well tolerated. Non-invasive options feel like warmth, suction, or pressure. Subcision may cause moderate discomfort, managed with local anaesthesia.
Side Effects & Downtime
Procedures that target cellulite may cause temporary redness, swelling, bruising, or tenderness. Downtime varies: non-invasive options allow quick return; subcision may require short recovery.

Frequently Asked Question
What is cellulite and why do we get it?
- Cellulite is a common skin condition where fat deposits push against fibrous connective tissue, creating a dimpled or lumpy appearance, often on the thighs and buttocks.
- It affects up to 90% of women and a smaller percentage of men, regardless of weight, body type, or fitness level.
- Hormonal changes, particularly estrogen, influence fat storage, circulation, and connective tissue, making women more prone to cellulite formation.
- Weakened collagen fibers and reduced skin elasticity allow underlying fat cells to protrude, causing visible dimpling on the skin’s surface.
- Genetics, age, lifestyle factors such as poor diet, stress, and inactivity can increase the likelihood and severity of cellulite development.
- Cellulite tends to be more prevalent in women due to the specific distribution of fat, muscle, and connective tissue in their skin.. Women’s skin structure, combined with hormonal factors, makes them more susceptible to cellulite.
What Are Cellulite Stages?
The Cellulite scale has three stages, with Stage 1 being the mildest and Stage 3 being the most severe.
- Stage 1: No dimpling when standing or lying down, but the pinch test shows an “orange peel” look.
- Stage 2: “Orange peel” dimpling appears when standing up, but not when lying down.
- Stage 3: “Orange peel” dimpling appears when standing up and lying down.
What Can Cellulite Treatments Address?
Cellulite treatments are designed to improve skin texture, firmness, and overall appearance in areas affected by dimpling or uneven contours.
- Reduce dimpling: Break down fibrous septae that pull skin downward and create a lumpy look.
- Tighten skin: Stimulate collagen and elastin to restore firmness and elasticity.
- Improve circulation: Enhance blood flow and lymphatic drainage, reducing fluid buildup that worsens cellulite.
- Reshape contours: Target fat cells to smooth bulges and achieve more even curves.
- Boost confidence: Create smoother skin and a more youthful silhouette.
- Versatility: Effective on thighs, buttocks, hips, abdomen, and arms.
How Should I Prepare for Cellulite Treatment in Edmonton?
- Book a consultation to review goals, medical history, allergies, and medications; disclose recent procedures, implants, pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
- Avoid blood-thinning agents (aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, alcohol) for 48–72 hours unless prescribed; ask your provider before stopping anything.
- Hydrate well: drink 6–8 glasses of water for three days before treatment to support lymphatic drainage and recovery.
- Skip tanning, self-tanner, harsh exfoliants, and retinoids on treatment areas for five to seven days.
- Shave body areas the night before if requested; arrive with clean, lotion-free skin and loose clothing.
- Eat a light meal and limit caffeine the day of treatment to reduce sensitivity.
- Bring compression garments if recommended; arrange transport after subcision.
- Follow Albany Cosmetic & Laser Centre’s specific pre-care instructions for your chosen modality.
How Many Sessions Will I Need for Cellulite Treatment?
- Treatment type matters: Endermologie or radiofrequency need 6–10 sessions; lasers (e.g., Fotona) typically 3–6; subcision 1–3, sometimes with filler.
- Severity: Mild dimpling responds faster; dense, fibrous cellulite requires more sessions and combination therapy.
- Area size and location: Thighs and buttocks need more passes than smaller patches on arms or abdomen.
- Interval: Sessions are spaced one to four weeks apart; subcision may need two to three months between visits.
- Combination plans: Pairing energy devices with lymphatic massage or subcision can reduce sessions while improving durability.
- Maintenance: Expect touch-ups every six to twelve months to preserve gains, especially for non-invasive options.
- Lifestyle: Hydration, exercise, and weight stability support better outcomes.
- Personalized plan: Your clinician confirms numbers after assessment, ultrasound mapping, and personal goals.
What Aftercare Should I Follow After Cellulite Treatment?
- Hydrate: Drink plenty of water for 48–72 hours to support lymphatic drainage and recovery.
- Compression: Wear recommended garments 24–72 hours (subcision: up to 7 days) to minimize swelling and bruising.
- Activity: Light walking is fine; avoid strenuous workouts, hot baths, saunas, and steam for 24–72 hours (subcision: 5–7 days).
- Skin care: Use cool compresses on the first day; apply a bland moisturizer or aloe. Avoid retinoids/acids for 3–5 days.
- Bruising/swelling: Consider arnica or bromelain; elevate the area when resting. Avoid alcohol and non-prescribed blood thinners for 48–72 hours.
- Hygiene: Keep sites clean and dry; don’t pick or scratch. Delay deep massage; gentle lymphatic massage only if advised.
- Sun protection: Apply SPF 30+ daily; avoid tanning for 1–2 weeks.
- When to call: Worsening pain, spreading redness, fever, or drainage—contact the clinic; attend your scheduled follow-up.
