VelaShape III for Cellulite Reduction and Skin Tightening

VelaShape III for Cellulite Reduction and Skin Tightening

Smooth cellulite and reduce unwanted fat on your thighs, butt, upper arms and stomach with VelaShape III body contouring. This popular and proven non-invasive procedure can also target excess fat and loose skin beneath your chin.

The VelaShape III body contouring treatment is FDA-cleared for temporary cellulite reduction and skin tightening. It’s also been shown to reduce the girth of the abdomen and thighs.

Unlike other cellulite treatments that take one approach to smoothing and tightening skin, the VelaShape III performs body contouring using four technologies at once: infrared light, mechanical massage, pulsed vacuum suction and radio frequency. This skin-tightening treatment also stimulates circulation, increasing collagen production for younger-looking skin. 

More than 3.5 million people have experienced the benefits of VelaShape technology. Keep reading to learn some of the reasons why it’s a body-contouring favorite.

Proven Benefits

The VelaShape is a proven medical body-shaping device; it’s been used in clinical settings for more than 10 years and has been the subject of the most published studies in its category. For example, during clinical trials, use of the VelaShape III led to the loss of one full dress size. 

Here’s how it works:

• Vacuum suction draws the skin closer to the energy source inside the VelaShape III device; the suction also massages the stiff fibrous bands beneath skin that contribute to the dimpled texture known as cellulite.
• Infrared and radio-frequency energies warm the targeted tissue, tightening skin and shrinking fat cells.
• Heat reduces skin looseness by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, improving firmness and enhancing elasticity. 

Faster Results

The VelaShape III is more powerful and can provide faster results in fewer treatment sessions than the older generations of the device. Most people see optimal results in the six to eight weeks following a full series of treatments. However, many people report that they notice positive results in the appearance of cellulite after the first or second treatment. You should go for followup treatments after 6 months to maintain your smoother, tighter skin. 

VelaShape III uses Smart RF technology; this radio frequency provides a guide for consistent energy delivery based on the density of the patient’s tissue. 

Comfortable 

Receiving VelaShape III treatment feels similar to getting a deep-tissue or hot-stone massage. The device uses a real-time temperature sensor to monitor increased temperature in the treated tissue for a precise and painless procedure. Many describe the treatment sessions as pleasant and relaxing. 

The rollers provide a massaging sensation and the radiant heat is warming. You can rest and close your eyes during your treatment session, listen to music on headphones or use your mobile phone, for instance. Some patients fall asleep during treatment, it’s that comfortable. 

Convenient

One VelaShape III treatment typically takes less than one hour. Exactly how long each session takes depends on the number of treatment areas, such as thighs or abdomen, that you choose.

You don’t have to do anything to prepare for a session besides making sure that you're hydrated. Drinking plenty of water enhances the metabolic process and lets the radio frequency energy conduct properly.

After your treatment, you can go back to work or other activities right away. The VelaShape III procedure doesn’t produce any visible signs besides a slight redness from increased blood flow to the skin. Also, the treatment areas might feel warmer for about one hour after the procedure. Some people might experience minor bruising after the first session.

VelaShape III is suitable for use on all skin types and in any season or climate. Just about everyone with a BMI lower than 30 is a potential candidate for body contouring with this device. But check with your primary physician if you’re considering VelaShape III treatment and have a pacemaker or defibrillator, have recently undergone surgery or recovered from a major illness or are pregnant or nursing.

Otherwise, anyone can safely and effectively use VelaShape III technology for its skin-tightening, slimming and cellulite-reduction benefits. 

Clinical studies show that the VelaShape III is effective for cellulite reduction, skin tightening and smoothing and toning and reshaping loose skin. If you'd like to find out if VelaShape III treatment will provide the results you're after, please contact us today to schedule a free consultation.
