VelaShape® Overview: Cost, Recovery, Before & After | AEDIT

What is VelaShape®?

VelaShape® is a noninvasive cellulite reduction procedure combining multiple treatment techniques for body contouring and less dimpling. The VelaShape® handheld device emits infrared light and RF energy to melt fat cells and promote collagen production. The tissue mobilization comes from a vacuum and rollers to reduce connective tissue fibrous bands, and stimulate lymphatic drainage and blood circulation.

The Anatomy of Cellulite

Typically four to six initial treatments will be needed for the desired result, and maintenance every three months will be needed for upkeep. VelaShape® differs from VelaSmooth in that it is an updated and improved treatment system.

What cosmetic concerns does a VelaShape® procedure treat?

1. Cellulite: VelaShape® combines the fat cell destroying and collagen stimulating properties of infrared light and radiofrequency energy with the circulatory advantages of tissue mobilization techniques for fat cell elimination, connective tissue fibrous band softening, fewer dimples, and tighter skin.

The ideal candidate for a VelaShape® procedure is in generally good health, at a stable, healthy weight, has no active skin infections, and is seeking cellulite reduction. VelaShape® is not recommended for women who are pregnant or individuals with implanted medical devices or other metal implants.

What is the average recovery associated with a VelaShape® procedure?

There is no downtime associated with a VelaShape® treatment, and most individuals resume regular activities directly following the cosmetic treatment. Candidates are encouraged to drink plenty of water to maximize results following the treatment.

What are the potential side effects of a VelaShape® procedure?

Possible side effects following a VelaShape® procedure include tingling, localized warmth, redness, and bruising. These side effects typically resolve quickly after the treatment.

What can someone expect from the results of a VelaShape® procedure?

The results of a VelaShape® procedure will develop over a series of four to six initial treatments. The results are temporary and maintenance treatments are typically needed every three months.

Cellulite Reduction 

VelaShape II is an FDA approved procedure for reducing the appearance of cellulite, and abdominal and thigh circumference temporarily. The device combines Infrared Light Energy and Bi-Polar Radiofrequency (RF) in a revolutionary new way to treat stubborn cellulite. It also helps in restoring smoother and youthful appearing skin. VelaShape II delivers precise heating to ensure effective and fast results in a safe manner with zero downtime.

The treatment increases the metabolism of stored energy and improves lymphatic drainage. It helps in removing or shrinking the size of actual cellulite or fat cells. Talk to your surgeon about the pros and cons of different non-surgical treatment options and how they will fare in comparison to a surgery. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Bryson Richards provides advanced procedures for cellulite reduction to patients in Las Vegas, NV, and surrounding locations.

VelaShape II Procedure

Cellulite is a result of rigid, fibrotic strands called septae. It pulls the skin down to accentuate fat pockets by creating visible dimpling in the skin. Cellulite tends to mostly affect women. It has no relation to the level of fitness or exercise routine followed by the individual. Regular exercise and healthy diet can help in lessening the appearance of cellulite. However, it doesn’t help with septae that pulls the skin downwards.

VelaShape II is an improved version of VelaSmooth which allows for collagen production, fat reduction and softening of septae fibers to improve body contours.

The patient will comfortably lie on the table during treatment. The treatment provider will use the VelaShape II handpiece for delivering radiofrequency and infrared energy. At the same time, the skin will be massaged and vaccumed as well. Heat energy helps in breaking down and melting fat cells while the mechanical massage stimulates the lyumphatic system by encouraging blood flow.

Results are usually seen within 4 – 6 treatments as collagen production increases and smoothens the skin texture. You would need maintenance treatments every 3 months.

What to Expect During the Treatment

You would need the targeted area to be free from any long hair. It is best to shave the area before treatment. Avoid using any drugs, such as gingko biloba, vitamin E, aspiring, or fish oil for at least two days before and after the treatment. You should also avoid using moisturizer and lotion in the treatment area before the appointment.

It is important that you drink lots of water and stay hydrated for at least 2 – 3 days before and after the treatment. VelaShape II breaks down fat cells and your body needs that excess water to excrete the waste cells. Cosmetic surgeon Dr. Bryson Richards receives patients from Las Vegas, NV, and nearby areas for non-surgical treatments to reduce stubborn cellulite appearance.
