Cellulite NYC, VelaShape NY Treatment – Get Rid of Cellulite with VelaShape
Our cellulite NYC (Long Island and VelaShape NY treatment centers will leave you smooth…get rid of cellultie with VelaShape! This safe and painless treatment has no down time! We offer the first FDA approved class II medical device for the treatment and reduction of cellulite. VelaShape may also be combined with laser liposuction treatment for truly long-lasting reduction of cellulite.
How Our Cellulite NYC and VelaShape NY Treatment Works
VelaShape™ uses elos™ technology, a mixture of heat, suction, light, and massage which precisely focuses on fatty tissues within the treatment areas. It also greatly improves skin texture and reduces the appearance of cellulite. Our Cellulite NYC and VelaShape NY treatment centers use VelaShape because it is considered a less invasive alternative to having liposuction; as it does not require incisions and is nearly pain-free.
Our VelaShape Treatment can be used to improve body contours and reduces the appearance of cellulite on the buttocks, love handles, thighs, and abdomen. It is especially effective for the reduction of cellulite on the thighs; one of the biggest problem areas for the development of cellulite.
What to Expect During Treatment at Our Cellulite NYC and VelaShape NY Centers
Most of our patients find that VelaShape treatments are extremely comfortable; many describe the feeling like a deep tissue massage with warmth. The VelaShape treatment accommodates your particular level of sensitivity and adjusts to your own comfort level. Most of our NY cellulite treatment patients experience a deep tissue warming sensation just below their skin, which can continue for a few hours after the cellulite treatment. A note from our cellulite NYC and VelaShape NY specialists: "Your skin may also look redder than normal and can feel tighter for up to several hours."
Our VelaShape Cellulite Treatment Overview
A full VelaShape treatment involves a total of four treatment sessions in the series, recommended to be repeated once a week. Depending on which body area is to be treated, our VelaShape NY cosmetic surgeon may use either the VSmooth applicator or the VContour applicator. The VSmooth applicator is especially for use on larger body areas, such as the buttocks, abdomen, and thighs and is gently applied across each area to apply the patented heat energy. The VContour applicator is used for smaller body areas like the face, calves, and arms or to enhance areas that were already treated with the VSmooth applicator.
Since VelaShape offers temporary results for the reduction of cellulite, treatments in our cellulite NYC or Long Island centers will need to be repeated regularly in order to keep the smooth results from this cellulite treatment procedure. Maintenance procedures are usually scheduled every two to three months or as recommended by our Cosmetic Surgeon.
What to Expect After Treatment in Our Cellulite NYC and VelaShape NY Centers
Patients will notice immediate results after the very first session of VelaShape. The surface of the skin in the treated areas will feel smooth, firm and tight. At the conclusion of your cellulite treatment regimen, you will notice substantial improvement in the way your skin appears and in its texture. The end result is a very smooth and sculpted body. Many of our New York VelaShape patients report a loss of about one inch after undergoing VelaShape cellulite treatment.
It is important to understand that the amount of response to our Cellulite NYC treatments varies between patients. Some VelaShape NY patients respond more dramatically to this treatment than others. Results in the overall circumference and reduction of cellulite will be most noticeable after six to eight weeks following the last treatment session.
Enhancement of VelaShape Cellulite Treatment Results
In order to achieve the very best, long-lasting results, we encourage our VelaShape NY patients to maintain a healthy lifestyle by eating well and getting aerobic activity at least three times per week. It is imperative that you control your weight after the VelaShape cellulite procedure; weight gain can produce undesirable results after treatment.
While no specific diet is required after treatment by our New York Cellulite reduction specialists, including certain foods may actually help our patients to get better results and further reduce their cellulite. At the same time, certain steps taken prior to cellulite treatment can also help enhance the results of our VelaShape procedure.
Some of these helpful tips include:
- Drink at least eight glasses of water a day
- Limit caffeine intake
- Reduce the intake of processed foods.
- Include:
Eggs (essential amino acids to help produce collagen, lecithin for skin strength)
Cucumbers (rich in skin strengthening silica)
