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 improves circulation and oxygenation of the cells – releasing trapped toxins. The overall result is smoother, more toned skin without the appearance of cellulite.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the best candidate for VelaSmooth™?
The best candidates for VelaSmooth™ are women who drink plenty of water, adhere to a healthy diet and exercise plan, and are near their ideal weight.
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 the skin. Cellulite is not caused by being overweight. Many people who are in excellent physical condition have isolated areas of cellulite on their hips, thighs and buttocks.
How many sessions will I need before I see results?
Most VelaSmooth™ clients say they began to see results after the first five or six treatments or within the first month. Two sessions a week for six to eight weeks is needed to achieve optimal results. Each treatment session lasts about an hour. Once the initial series is complete, a monthly maintenance session is recommended to maintain results.
How long do the results last?
The results of VelaSmooth™ can be long-lasting as long as a healthy weight is maintained. Once you have completed the initial series of treatments, one maintenance session per month is recommended to maintain the results.
How long does a session last?
A VelaSmooth™ session typically takes about one hour. For best results, we recommend two sessions a week for six to eight weeks, followed by a monthly maintenance session.
Is VelaSmooth™ painful?
Most people find VelaSmooth™ treatments to be relaxing, often describing the experience as a deep tissue massage or intense workout. However, it is the powerful rolling and sucking motion that increases blood circulation to the treatment area, helping to eliminate toxins and smooth out the dimpling appearance of the skin.
Are there any side effects?
VelaSmooth™ is an FDA-approved non-surgical, non-invasive procedure; 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.
How does VelaSmooth™ differ from Endermologie®?
The VelaSmooth™ and Endermologie® use similar vacuuming techniques to breakup the fat and toxins to smooth the skin. However, the VelaSmooth™ has the added benefit of radiofrequency and infrared energy to heat the deep layers of skin, increase oxygen to the cells and shrink the appearance of the fat pockets, or cellulite.
