Does Velashape Machine Work?

While tumescent liposuction remains the gold standard for immediate gratification for fat reduction and removal, non-invasive body liposculpting that truly delivers significant clinical results has been a holy grail among aesthetic physicians. Over the years, there have been various technology and medical devices that have attempted to deliver consistent body contouring, e.g. Endermologie, VelaShape, Zerona. 

The principles behind velashape are based on radio frequency, infrared light, and suction massage. Using all three offers some of the best response thus far. Unfortunately no system can promise a cellulite cure and the popular treatments for the most part promise contouring and some circumferential reduction over cellulite reduction.

vela shape typically has a 6 session "effectiveness curve". Anything less than that number and you may not see the benefits. In our office we add in 2 extra treatments because from a clinically apparent viewpoint, that's when our patients see the change.

Velashape is cumulative in its process, so each treatment session will spur its own level of collagen tightening and new tighter collagen formation.

For best benefits, a diet strong in fresh fruits and vegetables is recommended velashape before and after. Since the tissue manipulation with Velashape will mobilize entrapped fluids, assisting the process of oxygen exchange within the cells can only help get better results. Also, higher fluid intake (water preferred) and a refrain from high sodium foods, alcohol and caffeine will add to the positive end results. Of course exercise in the form or walking or swimming will help both long and short term. Changing your diet, exercising regularly, and drinking plenty of water can help your results last longer. It is recommended to have an individual treatment once every 3 months for maintenance. If you are looking for more permanent results, you should consider a velashape before and after picscellulite Thermage treatment (whose results last for up to 18 months) or surgery. 

Opt for a bare minimum of 6 sessions, with a recommendation of 8. You'll need maintenance treatments later on as well. VelaShape treatments are meant to be long-lasting (3-4 months) and maintainable. Complete the initial series of treatments to get great results, but plan to do maintenance treatments to keep those results. You can figure about 1-2 maintenance treatments every 2-3 months will be needed to maintain your results.
