VelaShape™

The causes of cellulite are varied; hormones, age, and heredity can each play a role in the accumulation of dimply, lumpy patches around the body. But VelaShape™ is a clinically proven, non-surgical solution to contour areas of the body resistant to weight loss through diet and exercise - like the thighs, abdomen, and buttocks. It is quickly rising in popularity as more people realize the benefits and see results for themselves.

What is VelaShape™?

VelaShape™ is an FDA-approved medical device that uses a combination of suction, massage, radio frequency energy, and infrared light to shape the body, and reduce cellulite and inches on areas like the thighs, abdomen, and buttocks. VelaShape™ delivers a higher amount of energy and intense heat than treatment with VelaSmooth™, but VelaShape™ patients still remain comfortable during the procedure.

How Does VelaShape™ Work?

The technician applies the VelaShape™ hand piece directly to the surface of the skin in the area to be treated. Mechanical rollers on the hand piece massage and smooth out the skin, while directing infrared radio frequencies into the skin. The radio frequencies warm up the underlying tissue, causing the fat cells to melt and break up. The fat is then naturally flushed out of the body. Patients say the procedure feels like as a warm, deep tissue massage, and they report loosing inches as well as pounds after the procedure. VelaShape™ procedures are recommended weekly for four to six weeks, with touch ups suggested every few months.

Benefits of VelaShape™

VelaShape™ is becoming more popular because it is:

• Convenient: an outpatient procedure
• Virtually painless: no needles, incisions, or anesthesia needed
• Enjoyable: imagine a warming massage
• Quick: takes between 20 minutes and two hours, depending on the treatment areas
• Effective: patients see results in as little as four weeks
• Helpful in stimulating circulation: a result of the massage and suction
