When given the opportunity to be one of the first physicians in the Southeastern United States to offer a solution to cellulite using a device that just gained FDA approval, even an experienced general and bariatric surgeon like Dr. Samuel Bledsoe gets excited. The Alexandria surgeon and founder of the Alexandria Body Sculpting Center has long taken an interest in helping his patients look and feel their best.

As the leading expert in SmartLipo in the Alexandria area, the Arkansas native had long been treating unwanted fat deposits in necks, stomachs, and extremities of his patients, using a Cynosure Triplex Laser device. So when Cynosure gained FDA approval for their CelluLaze device and called to ask him to be one of the trailblazers with the new device, how could he turn them down?

"According to some studies, over eighty percent of women over age twenty have some form of cellulite. It often affects their self esteem and makes them extremely self conscious, yet most women are embarrassed to even talk about it. What many women misunderstand is that cellulite doesn't have much to do with being overweight", says Bledsoe. "There is a huge demand for a procedure that is both minimally invasive and effective - the results I have seen from clinical trials using the CelluLaze are absolutely amazing".

The device can significantly reduce cellulite in just one treatment, often allowing the patient to return to work the next day. "Cellulaze is the world's first and only minimally invasive medical device designed to treat women who have struggled to eliminate cellulite through diet and exercise, or have tried the myriad of lotions and creams currently on the market," says Cynosure President and Chief Executive Officer Michael Davin. "Unlike those products, Cellulaze is the only aesthetic device that directly treats the physiological structure of cellulite, providing clinically proven, results."

The device works by inserting a thin laser fiber under the skin and leveling out bumps of fat, treating dimples by releasing the fibrous bands that pull down on the skin and stimulating collagen production to increase the skin’s depth and elasticity for a smoother look.

"We fully expect patients to come in from Dallas, Houston, New Orleans, and neighboring states to take advantage of this revolutionary procedure. In terms of innovation, Cellulaze is truly cutting-edge,” Bledsoe continues. Since the FDA approved this procedure a few days ago, there has been a remarkable amount of interest and excitement surrounding this product nationwide. We anticipate a similar response in this region and look forward to providing our services.
