How can i remove stretch marks or cellulite?

Cellulite is complex: Cellulite & stretch marks remain anathema to the plastic surgeon. Cellulite & stretch marks may occur in very thin patients as well. Cellulite is attributable to the way the skin connects to the underlying structures, namely muscle by fibrous septa causing the stereotypical dimpling & made worse by localized swelling due to lymphatic fluid, skin laxity, localized fatty deposits, & genetic factors.

These are : Difficult to get rid of. If the stretch marks are on your tummy, a tummy tuck might work. Some lasers can give some improvements to stretch marks. So far, i'm not too impressed by the cellulite therapies that are out there.
