One of the surgeons I consulted recommends velashape before liposuction for my inner thighs. He says Velashape is to reduce celullite and lipo will helpmwith size. He has not mentioned skin reduction (flabby). Any thoughts about velashape in combination with lipo?

Answer: VelaShape or Venus Freeze Types of treatments with Liposuction
Velashape III uses infrared IR technology for superficial heating to treat cellulite along with RF technology to destroy fat cells. It also uses massage and vacuum to softne bands that are fibrous tissue causing the release of the stubborn cellulite.
Although the degree and amount of penetration is not deep enough to affect the fetus, I recommend that you stop further treatments during pregnancy.
