Initial and Long Term Results of VelaSmooth

VelaSmooth is a new way to fight cellulite that involves using radio energy and a vacuum component. Skilled dermatologists apply a machine to the skin, and according to the makers of VelaSmooth, Syneron, the fat cells are metabolically stimulated, leaving smoother, leaner tissues. Patients report mixed results for these kinds of treatments, but many have found that VelaSmooth does produce some visual results.

Initial Effects of VelaSmooth

Some of the physicians who administer this cosmetic dermatology treatment say that patients can often see results by the third of several sessions of VelaSmooth application.

Long Term Effects of VelaSmooth

Those who understand the nature of VelaSmooth treatment know that it is part of a larger solution for keeping fat deposits from causing alteration in the body contours. Doctors recommend monthly maintenance sessions after VelaSmooth treatments. Without maintenance, VelaSmooth results of often disappear in 6 to 8 weeks.

Another part of necessary maintenance with VelaSmooth is to practice an effective diet and exercise program that will inhibit fat cells from re-absorbing fat at a cellular level. If patients are able to effectively decrease fat cell content with VelaSmooth, maintaining this change requires attention to the causes of fat buildup in those targeted areas of the body.

VelaSmooth generally does not include side effects, and there is no recovery time needed for this procedure. Some patients may experience a heated sensation on the skin, and a few may see bruising. Talk to your doctor about getting started on a VelaSmooth session and what to do if these rare side effects are experienced.
