Cellulite Treatment
What is cellulite and how did I get it?
Cellulite is a skin problem, not a fat problem
It is formed when the cell walls of the fat cell become rigid, thus pushing the fat toward the surface of the skin where we see it as that dimpling, cottage cheese look
About 80% of women have some degree of cellulite
The other 20% think they do
100% are self conscious about it
It cannot be diminished by exercise or dieting alone
What is the new technology and how does it work?
VelaShape is the first FDA-cleared non invasive medical treatment for the temporary reduction of cellulite.
VelaShape treats both the deeper tissue, offering a measurable reduction in fat layers, including the circumference of the thigh
VelaShape does works in four ways:
• it uses radiofrequency and infrared light energies to heat the underlying fat layer
• it then uses vacuum and specially designed rollers to manipulate and smooth out the skin
• this combination of deep heat, suction, and massage increases oxygen to the cells and decreases the size of the fat content in the fat cell
The result is a decrease in the appearance of cellulite and a toned, contoured, and well shaped body. Helps relieve muscle aches and pains.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does VelaShape work?
VelaShape uses combined energies know as elōs to precisely target and heat fatty tissues within the treatment area. In addition, the vacuum and tissue manipulation evens out the skin to reveal a smoother, tighter figure.
On what body areas can I be treated for circumference reduction?
With VelaShape, you can be treated on body areas such as the thighs and buttocks. The two applicators (VSmooth & VContour) on the VelaShape device are designed for large and small body areas; therefore, treatment is safe and effective.
How quickly will I notice a change?
Gradual improvement of the treated area can be seen following the first treatment - with the skin surface of the treated area feeling smoother, firmer and tighter. Results in circumference and cellulite reduction will be most apparent 6-8 weeks following the final treatment session.
How many inches can I reduce from my circumference?
In clinical studies, patients report an average reduction of 1 inch post treatment. In clinical trials, the average range of circumferential reduction was 0.5-3 inches.
