When you want to rid of cellulite and enhance your figure, body contouring treatments can help you achieve the long-term results you need. VelaSmooth is one of the latest skin rejuvenation and body contouring procedures available, an innovative cellulite removal treatment that provides a deep tissue massage to release stored body fat and smooth out the skin. It’s a non-invasive procedure that promises to tighten and tone the skin and improve the contours of the body.  With an average cost of $1,500 - $2,500 for a package of ten treatments, VelaSmooth has become one of the leading cellulite removal alternatives to plastic or cosmetic surgery (Source: Plasticsurgeryportal.com).    

Is the VelaSmooth treatment worth it?  Here’s a closer look at how Velasmooth works, and if it may be the right treatment for you:  

How VelaSmooth Treatments Work  

VelaSmooth treatments deliver a deep tissue massage using a combination of lasers, vacuum suction and standard massage rollers. The treatment makes use of bi-polar radio frequency, tissue manipulation, and light infrared energy to target key areas of the body that have accumulated stubborn fatty deposits. The Velasmooth process involves manipulating the skin using a vacuum and massage rollers, and casting the RF wavelengths and infrared light directly onto the fact cells. The combination of heat and light are designed to speed up the metabolism of the underlying cells and shrink the fat cells. The massage helps to reach deep within the skin’s layers and smooth out the tissues in the process. 

The entire treatment is painless, and patients report that it feels like a warm, soothing and deep massage session. Most treatments last between 45 – 60 minutes, but visible results can be achieved after a series of treatment spaced over a two month period. Maintaining results may require ongoing massage therapy, eating a healthy diet to prevent weight gain, and keeping up with a healthy lifestyle to maintain a healthy skintone.  

Key Benefits of VelaSmooth Cellulite Therapy  

VelaSmooth cellulite treatments may be a valuable alternative – or addition – to a complete body contouring program that requires surgery such as liposuction or other fat removal procedures.   

Key benefits of VelaSmooth include:

• Re-contouring of superficial layers of fat – a process that cannot be achieved with conventional massage therapy or body wrap treatments
• Shrinking the size of the fat cells – this is why cellulite becomes far less noticeable, and typically cannot occur without a drastic change in the diet or fitness regiment
• Reduces cellulite on the abdomen, hips, buttocks, back and love handles – key problem areas for both men and women Improves skin elasticity; skin becomes tighter, toned and more resilient after a series of treatments
• No recovery time necessary – since it is a non-invasive procedure, patients can resume regular activities immediately after a Velasmooth treatment    

After a surgical weight loss or fat removal procedure, loose skin or remaining cellulite may need to be treated with a non-invasive body contouring treatment. These types of treatments can help tighten and tone the skin and also promote healthy skin cell and tissue growth. Still, the body will need to be completely healed before pursuing vigorous massage therapy or cellulite reduction treatments such as VelaSmooth.
