How to Prepare for VelaSmooth

A lot of women fight to reduce the appearance of cellulite. However, the causes of cellulite haven't been discovered yet, so there is no cure that can get rid of cellulite 100%. However, there are a few procedures that may reduce the appearance of the so-called "orange peel" look. VelaSmooth is one of these procedures. This treatment applies massaging rollers and vacuum to reduce the fat from the deeper layers under the skin. VelaSmooth also sends oxygen to the cells, making the cellulite less visible. A full VelaSmooth treatment consists of up to 16 treatments. Preparing for VelaSmooth is easy.

Prepare for VelaSmooth

The preparation stage for VelaSmooth shouldn't be too complicated. The procedure is non-invasive, so you don't need to discontinue any medication you may be on.

Prepare for the procedure by drinking a lot of water and eating less on the day of the treatment. This will reduce the swelling and the risks of complications. As the VelaSmooth treatment employs a vacuum, bruising may be common. This should go away in less than 5 days, depending on the capacity of your skin to heal. Prepare some compresses to apply after the procedure to reduce the swelling and bruising. If you experience any discomfort, get some over the counter pain killers. You don't need to take time off from work.

The VelaSmooth treatment typically contains between 8 and 16 appointments. Prepare for each of these appointments in the same way. The more treatments you get, the fewer side effects you will experience, so the swelling and bruising will be minimal.
