Velashape 3

The treatment areas could be, on the neck (under chin), arms, thighs, buttocks, flank and abdomen. Most patients see gradual and cumulative results throughout the treatment regime.

You will begin to notice gradual improvement of the
 treated area, right away, as your skin’s surface starts to feel smoother and firmer. Over time, you will also notice a smaller circumference throughout the treated area, as well as a reduction in the appearance of cellulite, and best results will be seen at about 10 weeks.

VelaShape^® is not a weight loss treatment. VelaShape^® uses a combination of technologies to contour your body, reducing the trouble spots that diet and exercise can’t reach. The ideal VelaShape^® patient is someone with a BMI (Body Mass Index) of less than 30, who falls under The Nurnberger-Muller Cellulite Classification Stage 1 and 2. Ask our Specialists to see if you’re a candidate for VelaShape^® treatments

You will need from 4 to 6 treatments to obtain the best results.

Stage 1

NO dimpling while the patient is standing or lying down, but the pinch test reveals the “orange peel” appearance.

Stage 2

“Orange peel” dimpling appears spontaneously when standing up, but NOT when lying down.

Stage 3

“Orange peel” dimpling appears spontaneously both when standing up AND lying down.

The VelaShape treatment is safe and effective for all skin types and colors. There are no reported short-term or long-term side effects.

Most patients find VelaShape comfortable, and describe
the treatment as feeling like a warm deep-tissue massage.
The treatment parameters are easily adjusted to ensure a comfortable treatment experience. It is normal to experience
a warm sensation for a few hours after your treatment. Some patients report a pinkish appearance at the treatment area that may last a few hours post treatment, and skin may appear pink for several hours.

There is no definite explanation for why cellulite occurs. While it may be the result of an unhealthy lifestyle, there may be other causes, including genetics or hormonal changes

Following your treatment regimen, it is recommended that you periodically receive maintenance VelaShape treatments. Like all techniques, invasive or non-invasive, results will last longer if you follow a balanced diet and exercise regimen.

In clinical trials, the body contouring power of VelaShape led to a reduction of one whole dress size after treatment.

An article in Women’s Health Magazine, awarded Velashape 3, as the best 2nd treatment for cellulite reduction, after Cellfina, which is a more invasive treatment that requires injections and cuts. 

Treatment sessions are now shorter, and you can see results faster than ever. Many patients now report visible results after their first visit.

VelaShape uses a combination of technologies:

1. A vacuum elevates the target tissue, bringing it closer to the energy source.
2. Infrared light (IR) directly heats the targeted area. 

3. Bi-polar radio frequency (RF) energy safely guides heat evenly throughout the targeted area, so that it heats faster without damaging the skin 
These energies combine to deep-heat fat cells and the surrounding tissue. The result is a smaller circumference and a reduction in the appearance of cellulite.
