According to the readers poll over at RealSelf.com, here is the “rogue’s gallery” as of today – the procedures at the bottom of the barrel on the “was it worth it” scale. The 20% satisfaction rating for lipodissolve, for example, means that 80% of people didn’t think it was worth the cost.You can see the full list here (link)Procedure………Percentage satisfied………Average cost
Velashape……………32%……………………….$2785
Mesotherapy …………32%………………………$2282
Lifestyle lift…………..28%……………………..$5470
Cellulite treatment……25%……………………..$2557
Lipodissolve……………20%……………………..$1918
Astute readers of this blog will recognize many of these offenders from previous posts and discussions! Four out of five of these procedures have minimal science or proof of efficacy to back them up.
Interestingly, the Zerona non-invasive fat zapping laser was not on this list. But this device didn’t rate well either: Realself voters only gave the Zerona a 20% rating, which ties with Lipodissolve for last place. Ouch!!
