The FDA only approved this enzyme injection for the butt, but doctors often use it on the thighs too — with a weaker solution and different injection pattern.

The treatment causes bruising and soreness at the injection site, but these side effects are usually mild and go away within a couple of weeks.

The treatment works just as well for women with light skin as it does for women with dark skin — skin color doesn’t make a difference in how well it works.

Women who got the enzyme injection felt less self-conscious, embarrassed, or like they looked older because of their cellulite — and they were much happier with how their skin looked.

Younger, leaner women tend to see better results from the injection than older or heavier women — but even older or heavier women still benefit more than those who don’t get the treatment.
