VelaShape™ is the first and only nonsurgical FDA-cleared medical device for the Body Reshaping market and the first FDA class II-cleared device for the treatment of cellulite.
Cellulite Reduction with VelaShape™
Cellulite affects over eighty percent of adult women, regardless of weight, size or level of physical activity. Contrary to popular belief, cellulite is not caused by excessive weight gain or loss. It is actually caused by fat and toxins that have been pushed toward the surface of the skin and have become trapped in the dermal layer, which causes a dimpling or rippling appearance of the skin.
Although there is no cure for cellulite, this innovative technology has made it possible to significantly reduce and in many cases eliminate the appearance of cellulite and provide circumferential reduction with noticeable reshaping of the treated area.
Like VelaSmooth™, VelaShape™ is an FDA-approved, nonsurgical, non-invasive treatment for cellulite. elōs™ technology combines the power of radio frequency energy and infrared light with the rolling and suctioning motion of traditional Endermologie®. The radio frequency energy and infrared light delivers penetrating heat to the deep layers of skin, which helps to shrink the fat pockets, while the rolling and suctioning motion evenly distributes the heat energy and improves circulation and oxygenation of the cells - releasing trapped toxins. The overall result is smoother, more toned skin without the appearance of cellulite.
Body Contouring with VelaShape™
VelaShape™ is the latest, most advanced, nonsurgical technology available to reshape your body and provide circumferential reduction - an ideal solution for active women wanting to reshape their post-baby body without downtime or surgery.
The same revolutionary elōs™ technology treats both the deeper tissue and the upper layers of the skin, resulting in a measurable reduction in fat layers, circumference and the appearance of cellulite. VelaShape™ offers a nonsurgical, no downtime and virtually painless treatment for body contouring, with visible results in as few as 6 treatment sessions.
VelaShape™ treatments are safe, effective, and virtually painless and require no downtime - patients can return to daily activities immediately following treatment. It has never been easier to achieve a toned, contoured and well shaped body; making you look and feel your best!
Frequently asked Questions:
Who is the best candidate for VelaShape™?
The best candidates for VelaShape™ are healthy individuals who are at or near their ideal weight and who follow a healthful diet and exercise program.
How does the VelaShape™ differ from a VelaSmooth™ treatment?
The main difference is the improved technology. The VelaShape™ uses more than two times the energy than the VelaSmooth™. With double the energy and a more powerful delivery efficiency rate, the VelaShape™ provides better results with fewer treatments. With the VelaSmooth™, cellulite reduction required 12-16 treatments. VelaShape™ provides more dramatic improvement in 6 treatments.
What is cellulite?
Cellulite, which looks like dimpling on the surface of the skin, is caused by an accumulation of displaced fat and toxins that are trapped just beneath the surface of skin. Cellulite is not caused by being overweight; in fact, many people who are in excellent physical condition have pockets of cellulite on their arms, hips, thighs or buttocks.
How many sessions will I need for Cellulite Reduction or Body Contouring before I see results?
The treatment plan is the same for cellulite reduction and body contouring. Most people say they can begin to see results after the first or second treatment. However, six treatments spaced one week apart are needed to achieve optimal results. Each treatment session lasts 20 to 40 minutes depending on the area treated. Once the initial series is complete, a maintenance session may be recommended once every three months to maintain the result.
How long do the results last?
The results of VelaShape™ are long-lasting as long as a healthy weight is maintained. Once you have completed the initial series of treatments, one session every three months is recommended for continued results.
How long does a session last?
A VelaShape™ session typically takes about 20 to 40 minutes depending on the treatment area. For best results, we recommend one session a week for six weeks, followed by a maintenance session once every three months.
Is VelaShape™ painful?
Most people find VelaShape™ treatments to be relaxing from the deep soothing heat, describing the experience to a deep tissue massage or intense workout.
Are there any side effects?
VelaShape™ is an FDA-approved nonsurgical, non-invasive treatment; therefore, side effects are virtually non-existent. The only side effect that may occur is temporary bruising at the treatment site, and even this is very uncommon.
