Another cellulite treatment method is Collagenase injections. The Collagenase is basically a naturally occurring enzyme in the body which helps in breaking down the down collagen, a component of connective tissue which means that the tissues which bind our cells together.

In the year 2006 a study was conducted on 10 women and it suggested that injections with this enzyme can be beneficial in improving the appearance of cellulite. There was a significant reduction in cellulite appearance of the injected area. Cellulite area was reduced by 77% day 1, 74% at 1 week,89% at 1 month,86% at 3 months.,76% in six months of time.

But the long lasting effects of this inject and still not completely known. In fact not much studies have been carried out to find out the extent and duration of the improvements, if any.

This treatment is still considered to be experimental but the research is being conducted in order to find out if collagenase injections may be utilized as a treatment method for cellulite.
