How Long Do VelaShape® Results Last?
VelaShape® can tighten and contour areas of your body like your abdomen, thighs, and buttocks. It can also reduce the appearance of cellulite. You can achieve a firmer abdomen, slimmer thighs, or smoother buttocks that last for months.
What is VelaShape®?
VelaShape® is a body sculpting device that has been cleared by the FDA for reducing cellulite and decreasing the circumference of areas such as the thighs, upper arms, and abdomen. This safe, non-invasive procedure feels as comfortable as a warm massage and causes no trauma to the skin or tissues.
Cellulite can be difficult to treat. It develops when fibrous bands of connective tissue form beneath the skin and adhere to the skin and muscle. This holds the skin down and causes dimpling. At the same time, these bands squeeze the fat in the area into the familiar bumpy appearance of cellulite. VelaShape® can treat this combination of factors by using four different technologies to smooth and reduce cellulite.
How Does VelaShape® Work?
VelaShape® uses four different types of energy on cellulite or stubborn fat. First, infrared light creates warmth, and radiofrequency (RF) energy heats several layers of the skin, shrinking fat cells and improving skin tightness by promoting collagen production. Gentle suction and mechanical massage combine to lift the skin so the massage can work most effectively.
This combination helps to loosen and break up the fibrous bands that cause cellulite, allowing the skin to become smoother and reducing the appearance of dimples. With so few effective treatment options for cellulite, VelaShape® has been proven to treat your cellulite and improve its appearance. In addition, VelaShape® requires fewer treatment sessions than older technologies to achieve your results.

Is There any Downtime With VelaShape®?
You will have no downtime after VelaShape®. The skin may look red and flushed for several hours after treatment, but this will resolve quickly. Because VelaShape® is noninvasive and gentle, people experience no discomfort during or after treatment.
How Long Do VelaShape® Results Last?
You can expect your VelaShape® results to last about three to four months for either skin tightening or cellulite reduction. Most people will need anywhere from one long treatment or three shorter treatments to see the best results. You may choose to have follow-up treatments every four to six months to maintain your results.
What Results Will I See With VelaShape®?
You will see full results within about six to eight weeks after your last treatment. The treated areas look tighter and slimmer, while treated cellulite looks smoother and more even. Results continue to improve for weeks after treatment because the skin continues to build new collagen, making it firmer and more resilient.
Am I a Good Candidate for VelaShape®?
Almost anyone can have VelaShape® treatment, although it is not recommended for those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or who have a pacemaker or other electronic device.
