Abstract

Cellulite 80%-98% of post-pubertal women and results in cutaneous dimples in the affected area. Therapies that target collagenous fibrous septae often provide successful outcomes. Collagenase clostridium histolyticum-aaes (CCH) for injection consists of two collagenases which, under physiologic conditions, disrupt collagen structures by hydrolyzing Type I and III collagen. Subcutaneous CCH was approved in the United States in 2020 for the treatment of moderate-to-severe cellulite in the buttocks of adult women. Although bruising is primarily an aesthetic concern, a conspicuous procedure-induced bruise may limit a patient's social activities and result in hesitation to undergo a similar cosmetic procedure in the future. The purpose of this review is to describe the available techniques for hastening bruise resolution and how they apply to resolving bruises associated with a CCH injectable.
