ABSTRACT
Since cellulite is more likely to occur within lax skin in obese women, its unsightly appearance may be improved, rst, by rejuvenating the overlying skin and subdermal septal network and, secondly, by reducing the presence of fat bulges that intrude through the dermo-subcutaneous barrier. Preliminary studies employing low-level light therapy, in the form of energy generated by light emitting diodes (LED), have demonstrated modest and temporary results in the management of cellulite. is chapter will discuss LED therapy and its role in the treatment of this common and annoying condition.
