Cellulite subcision at Vive Med Spa Tijuana

The Procedure

How Cellulite Subcision Works

Structural Correction

Releases fibrous bands that pull the skin downward and cause dimpling at its root.

Permanent Results

Once fibrous bands are cut, they do not regenerate, providing long-lasting correction.

Minimally Invasive

Performed through micro-incisions under local anesthesia, no general anesthesia needed.

Single Session

Most patients achieve complete correction in a single procedure.

What is Cellulite Subcision?

Cellulite subcision is a minimally invasive surgical technique that addresses the structural cause of dimpled skin. Cellulite dimples are formed when fibrous connective tissue bands (septa) tether the skin downward toward deeper tissues, while surrounding fat cells push upward. By cutting these bands with a specialized needle or microscalpel, the skin releases and lifts naturally, smoothing out the dimples.

At Vive Med Spa in Tijuana, our board-certified surgeons perform cellulite subcision under tumescent local anesthesia. Each dimple is mapped, marked, and individually released, ensuring precise correction. The procedure is often combined with biostimulator injections such as Radiesse or Sculptra to thicken the dermis, strengthen the skin, and prevent recurrence. Some of our physicians also use the Italian diamond incision technique, an enhanced version of subcision that combines collagen biostimulation with band release.

Most patients require a single subcision session for complete correction. Recovery is generally quick: most patients return to normal activities within 3 to 5 days, with final results visible after 1 to 3 months. The technique is FDA-approved, well-established, and considered the gold standard for structural cellulite correction. Our facility is COFEPRIS-certified and follows NOM-241-SSA-2020 surgical safety standards.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cellulite Subcision

What is cellulite subcision?

Cellulite subcision is a surgical technique that releases the fibrous bands (septa) beneath the skin that pull downward and create dimples. At Vive Med Spa in Tijuana, our board-certified surgeons use a specialized needle or microscalpel to cut each individual fibrous band, allowing the skin to lift and smooth out. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and provides permanent correction of dimpled skin in the buttocks, thighs, and hips.

How is subcision different from other cellulite treatments?

Unlike creams, massages, or energy-based devices that work on the surface, subcision directly releases the structural cause of cellulite: the fibrous bands pulling the skin downward. By cutting these bands, the skin can lift naturally and dimples disappear. Subcision is often combined with biostimulators such as Radiesse or Sculptra to thicken the dermis and prevent recurrence. The result is permanent correction that no surface treatment can match.

How long does recovery take after cellulite subcision?

Most patients return to normal activities within 3 to 5 days. Compression garments are recommended for the first week to reduce swelling and support healing. Mild bruising and soreness resolve over 2 to 3 weeks. Final results become visible after 1 to 3 months as the swelling subsides and the skin remodels. Patients typically notice significant improvement in dimple depth and skin smoothness.

How many subcision sessions do I need?

Most patients achieve excellent results with a single subcision session. The number of bands released depends on the extent and severity of the cellulite. For extensive dimpling across multiple areas, two sessions spaced several months apart may be recommended. During your consultation at Vive Med Spa, our physicians map each dimple and design a precise plan for comprehensive correction.

Is cellulite subcision safe and FDA approved?

Yes. Subcision techniques are well-established in plastic surgery and use FDA-approved surgical instruments. At Vive Med Spa, our surgeons perform subcision in a COFEPRIS-certified facility under NOM-241-SSA-2020 safety standards. The procedure has been used for decades and is considered the gold standard for structural cellulite correction.
