VelaShape continues to be one of the most popular body contouring procedures on the market, an innovative non-invasive body contouring device designed to break down fatty tissue, tighten up the skin and create a contoured and sculpted silhouette. 

The VelaShape system is powerful enough to shrink the fat cells using a combination of infrared energy and heat; it has become a popular procedure for those who do not want to pursue liposuction for small problem areas, and the company behind VelaShape explains that most people can achieve significant results with a series of VelaShape treatments.

VelaShape Post-Treatment

While some people see results within a few weeks after the first set of treatments, most can achieve even better results by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, exercising regularly and eating a healthy diet. The body continues to adjust to the procedure for several weeks after the series of treatments are over, and patients can enhance results by maintaining a healthy lifestyle and encouraging natural fat loss.

Maintaining Results After VelaShape

If you have received VelaShape treatments, there are several ways to maintain or enhance results during the post-treatment phase.  You can:

Maintain an active lifestyle – once the fat cells are broken down, the body needs to eliminate them as quickly as possible. One of the simplest ways to do this is to maintain a consistent exercise regimen that will raise the metabolism and increase circulation. Any sweat-inducing exercise will release toxins from the body and can make the fat removal process much more efficient.

Drink more water – VelaShape patients are encouraged to drink plenty of water before and after each treatment so that the body can naturally flush out toxins and cells with ease. Drinking more water even after the series of treatments is over can help reduce bloating and keep toxins at bay.

Consider another treatment – many people benefit from maintenance treatments that can further help sculpt, tone and tighten the body.  Having one treatment every 4-6 weeks can help maintain results and tighten up the skin in the process.

Encourage healthy circulation – sitting in a sauna or maintaining a steady schedule of massage sessions can help increase circulation in the body and help the body maintain results. Massage therapy and a sauna can also help detoxify the body naturally to reduce bloating and prevent toxin buildup. This is especially important during the VelaShape post-treatment stages, and can further tighten and tone up the skin.

Eat water-based foods – maintaining a healthy diet will prevent unwanted weight gain and reduce the risk of fat cell expansion. Eating more water-based foods such as fruit and vegetables also helps the body flush toxins naturally and keeps the body looking healthy, hydrated and toned.

VelaShape is one of the most effective non-invasive treatment options for cellulite and fat reduction, and can help get rid of cellulite, shrink the size of the fat cells and tighten up the skin. A series of 4-6 treatments is recommended for most ‘problem areas’, and VelaShape patients can maintain results with a few simple changes to their diet and lifestyle.
