The cosmetic dermatology treatment known as VelaSmooth is a simple process that uses radio energy (RF and infrared waves) as well as a vacuum component to help reduce cellulite in areas of the body. VelaSmooth is popular for some specific reasons. Here are some of the major benefits of VelaSmooth, that prompt so many patients to try this approach to altering body contours and looking better.
1. Non-invasive and Non-surgical
VelaSmooth is a completely non-invasive way to try to change the look of the skin without needles, cuts or even harsh chemicals. A VelaSmooth treatment is a relatively safe and organic route to making changes in the body, unlike some procedures that require local or general anesthesia and healing or recovery afterward.
2. Few Reported Side Effects
Because VelaSmooth doesn't include some of the more intense aspects of other treatments, patients are not likely to have major side effects with a VelaSmooth procedure. Some patients have reported minor bruising, skin flushing, or a temporary heating sensation in the skin. Besides these minor side effects, many patients and doctors have seen VelaSmooth done safely and comfortably.
3. No Recovery Time Needed
Another positive thing about this kind of therapeutic treatment is that there's no recovery time needed for a VelaSmooth procedure. Patients can resume normal activities and go about their day. This makes VelaSmooth a popular choice for those who have to fit cosmetic dermatology treatments into a busy schedule.
4. A Track Record of Success
After the FDA approval of VelaSmooth, the maker of this technology, Syneron, went on to create another product, VelaShape, that uses similar technology. Both of these products treat thousands of patients with the approval of the FDA and other groups. Doctors continue to be positive about the overall rates of success with the VelaSmooth product, and continue to use it as part of their available menu of options for patients who seek care in their offices.
5. A Gateway to Diet and Exercise
Perhaps one of the best reasons to try VelaSmooth is that this kind of treatment gives an individual a strong and powerful incentive to practice good diet and exercise. After VelaSmooth treatments are over, the results may go away unless the recipient can take steps to maintain her appearance. For this reason, VelaSmooth can actually help patients get in shape and stay that way.
6. Results
Not all patients who have chosen the treatments have seen results with VelaSmooth, but many have, and positive testimonials are another major reason that someone dealing with cellulite might set up an appointment to talk about how to pursue this easy, convenient type of treatment.
No cosmetic dermatology treatment is entirely risk-free, but doctors can provide more details on how VelaSmooth has been used on many patients without any negative side effects or complications. Talk to your local doctor about whether VelaSmooth is right for an existing condition.
