VelaShape is a non-invasive body contouring treatment designed to reduce the appearance of cellulite, firm the skin, and improve body contours. It combines infrared light, bipolar radiofrequency (RF), and gentle suction. These technologies work together to heat the skin’s deeper layers, stimulating collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture, and promoting lymphatic drainage while reducing fat cell size. The treatment is safe for all skin types and is typically used on areas like the thighs, buttocks, abdomen, arms, neck, and flanks. Sessions last about 30-45 minutes, with no downtime required.

VelaShape stands out due to its unique combination of infrared light, bipolar radiofrequency energy, and gentle suction, which target both the skin’s surface and deeper layers. This technology is effective for cellulite reduction, circumferential reduction, and skin tightening, with no downtime, unlike more invasive procedures.

VelaShape results can last for several months, but maintenance is often recommended to prolong them. After completing the initial series of treatments, results typically last around 6 to 12 months, depending on factors like lifestyle, body composition, and skin condition. Regular maintenance sessions every 6 to 12 months can help preserve the improved contours and reduce the reappearance of cellulite.

VelaShape treatments are generally well-tolerated and considered comfortable by most patients. The procedure feels like a warm deep-tissue massage, with the heating and suction sensations being quite mild. Some patients may experience slight warmth or redness afterward, which fades quickly.
