VelaShape vs. Endermologie - Which is Better?


Advertisement

 

If you have recently had liposuction or just want to lose a few inches around your waist and thighs without surgery, a cosmetic surgeon may recommend a series of body contouring treatments such as VelaShape or Endermologie. Both of these non-invasive procedures can help to tighten and tone up the skin and tissues to give you a more attractive, shapely silhouette.
 
If you’re struggling with correcting loose or sagging skin, or just want to improve the tone and texture of your skin after surgery, you could be a good candidate for either treatment. But which one is better? Here’s a close look at the key benefits of both VelaShape and Endermologie for body contouring:

The Basics About Velashape

VelaShape is an FDA-cleared device designed to slim down the body by firming up the skin and reducing the appearance of cellulite. If you are struggling with unsightly cellulite around the thighs, buttocks and stomach, you may be a good candidate for this skin-tightening treatment.
 
VelaShape is often recommended for people who have undergone liposuction surgery because it can tighten the midsection and other treated areas, while smoothing out the skin’s appearance. Most people need to undergo at least four to six treatments to see noticeable results, and must maintain a healthy lifestyle during the treatment process to achieve their desired silhouette.

The Basics About Endermologie

Endermologie, also known as lipomassage, is an advanced massage and cellulite treatment designed to reduce the appearance of cellulite and tighten up the skin. The clinically-proven device works by targeting areas that are holding on to stubborn fat, and also helps to tighten up loose skin. It is a noninvasive treatment, and is often recommended by for patients who have undergone liposuction or lost a lot of weight.
 
A series of Endermologie sessions spaced about a week or 10 days apart is ideal for smoothing out the skin, losing inches and promoting overall relaxation. Some medical spas and treatment centers offer Endermologie treatments combined with deep tissue massage for better results.

Velashape vs. Endermologie

Both VelaShape and Endermologie offer a number of benefits for those who want to tighten and tone up the skin after surgery, or just reduce the appearance of cellulite. However, each one has its own set of benefits. VelaShape can help to tighten up the skin significantly after just a single treatment, and is an FDA-approved treatment for circumferential reduction. The treatment can slim down the body by several inches after a series of treatments, and may be beneficial for anyone who is struggling with a few ‘vanity pounds’.
 
Endermologie is a deeply relaxing treatment that can also help to reduce the appearance of cellulite. However, this treatment acts more like a total body massage and can detoxify the body while tightening up the skin. This treatment may be more effective for maintaining weight loss after a healthy diet and exercise regimen, and also after surgery to improve the procedure’s results.
 
Learn more about Velashape and Endermologie in our information guides, or consult with a cosmetic surgeon in your area to find out if you are a good candidate for either one of these body contouring treatments.
