VelaShape™ - Cellulite Reduction

 

VelaShape™ contours, shapes and slims the body by improving cellulite and reducing circumference is a few as 4 treatment sessions. VelaShape™ has been cleared by the FDA and provides dramatic results without downtime or significant discomfort.

The secret behind VelaShape™ is elos™ - the first and only technology that combines powerful energies to reduce the volume and appearance of fat tissues. With this unique approach, we are able to treat multiple areas including abdomen, buttocks and thighs in less than 40 minutes.

80% of all women over the age 20 have cellulite, regardless of size or shape. Cellulite occurs when fat cell in the deepest layer of skin become over-inflated from an increase in fat storage. The fat cells protrude up though the tissue causing dimpling or a cottage cheese appearance.

VelaShape™ is the only FDA cleared treatment that safely delivers heat into the fatty tissue to reduce cellulite and firm problem areas.


Frequently Asked Questions

 

How does VelaShape™ work?

VelaShape™ uses combined energies known as elos™ to precisely target and heat fatty tissues within the treatment area. In addition, the vacuum and tissue manipulation evens out the skin to reveal a smoother, tighter figure.

 

How quickly will I notice a change?

Gradual improvement of the treated area can be seen following the first treatment- with the skin surface of the treated area feeling smoother, firmer and tighter. Results in circumference and cellulite reduction will be most apparent 6-8 weeks following the final treatment session.

 

How many inches can I reduce from my circumference?

In clinical studies, patients report an average reduction of 1 inch post treatment. In clinical trails, the average range of circumferential reductions was 0.5-3 inches.99+11

 

 

Is treatment safe?

Treatment is safe and effective for all skin types and colors. There are no reported short- or long-term health effects.

 

Does it hurt?

Most patients find VelaShape™ comfortable- like a warm deep tissue massage. The treatment is designed to accommodate your sensitivity and comfort level. It is normal to experience a warm sensation for a few hours post treatment. Your skin may also appear red for several hours.

 

How do I improve and maintain results?

Following your complete treatment regimen, maintenance treatments are recommended every 6-8 weeks. Like all non-surgical or surgical techniques, results will last longer if you follow a balanced diet and exercise regularly.
