VelaShape

This non-invasive treatment can be completed in just 20 to 30 minutes. If you are undergoing VelaShape for multiple areas of the body, however, your treatment process will take longer.

Most patients require four to 12 weekly or biweekly sessions before maximum benefits of the VelaShape/VelaSmooth cellulite solution are realized.

There is no downtime required after this cellulite reduction procedure, and the treatments are virtually painless. Therefore, VelaSmooth/VelaShape presents an attractive option for individuals interested in the benefits of body contouring without the pain and recovery associated with more invasive procedures.

After one or two VelaShape sessions, you can expect to see an improvement in the appearance of cellulite in the treated areas and a reduction in the circumference of that body part. Optimal results generally become visible around six to eight weeks after completing all of your treatment sessions.

Unfortunately, no cosmetic procedure can completely eliminate cellulite, but VelaShape offers a noticeable improvement in its appearance.

VelaShape offers a temporary reduction in cellulite. These results can last for six months to a year. While you can prolong your results by following a healthy lifestyle, no amount of diet and exercise nor any treatment can provide permanent cellulite reduction.

Depending on the health and lifestyle of the individual, maintenance sessions are administered typically once every one to three months.

VelaShape can be used anywhere on the body that needs contouring. Cellulite most commonly develops on the back of our thighs and buttocks, so these areas as well as the arms, abdomen and flanks are the most popular treatment areas. If cellulite exists in an area of your body, VelaShape can be an effective solution.

VelaShape is recommended for patients of any age suffering from cellulite around the hips, arms, abdomen and lower limbs. For the best results, patients should be committed to a healthy lifestyle that includes diet and exercise. Patients tend to achieve the best VelaShape results when they are at a healthy weight with mild to moderate cellulite.

You should not undergo VelaShape if you are pregnant or breastfeeding or have an implanted electronic device in your body. If you are on blood thinners, do not take them for at least five days before your VelaShape treatment.

The VelaShape line is the only cellulite treatment system to combine four different complementary technologies together to improve the skin’s appearance. The results of this unique procedure have been proven over numerous clinical trials and 3.5 million + treatments worldwide.

While VelaShape can effectively reduce the size of fat cells in the treatment area as a secondary result, the main goal of the procedure is not fat reduction. If you have stubborn fat you’d like eliminated, we offer non-surgical fat reduction procedures like CoolSculpting and UltraShape that are more effective for this goal.

Yes, this treatment works well when combined with other cosmetic procedures. Patients commonly combine VelaShape with plastic surgery procedures like tummy tuck surgery and liposuction. It can also be combined with non-invasive procedures like CoolTone muscle building, miraDry sweat reduction and Ultherapy skin tightening.
