• Using a body scrub before treatment is helpful.
• Skin must be completely clean and free of all cosmetic products such as body oils, moisturising creams or lotions, shaving products and fake tan.
• Sensitivity varies, but most clients describe the treatment as pleasurable with only a deep heating sensation, like that of a warm deep tissue massage.
• After treatment, the sensation of under-skin warmth and a feeling of tightness may last for some hours and is sometimes accompanied by mild redness.
• Benefits last longest if a healthy lifestyle and body weight are maintained, with regular exercise and stretching plus daily moisturisation to keep the skin elastic.

Clients can expect gradual smoothing of skin’s surface with a noticeable reduction in cellulite & fat deposits. There is also circumferential reduction with a noticeable reshaping of the treated area.

Most patients find VelaShape III comfortable and describe the treatment as feeling like a warm deep-tissue massage. To combat this discomfort, treatment parameters are easily adjusted to ensure a comfortable treatment experience. It is normal to experience a warm sensation for a few hours post-treatment. Some patients report a pinkish appearance of the treatment area that may last a few to several hours post-treatment.

Possible side effects following a VelaShape III procedure for cellulite reduction can include tingling, localized warmth, redness, and bruising. These side effects typically resolve quickly after the treatment.

VelaShape 3™ technology combines infrared light, bipolar radiofrequency energy and vacuum, which causes deep heating of the fat cells, their surrounding connective tissue and the underlying dermal collagen fibers. This promotes the stimulation of the growth of new collagen and elastin, which can result in a localized reduction in skin laxity, body volume, and an overall improvement in skin structure and texture. VelashapeIII does work and is the only non-invasive machine to combine four different technologies including IR(infrared), Bi-Polar RF(radio-frequency)and mechanical tissue manipulation using a pulsed vacuum and massage rollers. The combination of the IR and vacuum coupled RF technologies causes deep heating of connective tissue, which in return stimulates collagen.

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

With a series of 5-6 treatments, 7 to 14 days apart, we have seen significant improvement in cellulite and skin elasticity. It should be remembered that it is not possible to remove cellulite permanently, to maintain the results, follow up treatments will be required.

Cellulite is predominantly a women’s issue and many women experience a change to their skin’s appearance over time. Over time there is a dimpled appearance showing up most often on the back of the thighs, abdomen, and buttocks. VelaShape III uses a combination of technologies to change the appearance of your skin providing dramatic results without downtime or significant discomfort. However, it can’t stop the body’s natural aging and reproduction of a dimpled look underneath the skin. We all age, however, we can age better by cellulite reduction treatment!
