I purchased VelaShape to smooth-out saddle bags and the inner knee area. At my last session the technician spent only 3 minutes on each area (4 total), and the discomfort was minimal. Today I had a different technician. It was very uncomfortable (from pressure, not from heat), and the entire area on my thigh that was worked on is horribly bruised. I'm seriously beginning to wonder if these "techs" know what they are doing. Can anyone out there offer insight?
