Vaser Shape Vs. Venus Freeze on Upper Arms
I have had the Venus Freeze for about a year now. Many of my patients were doing Velashape on their arms, and all have switched to the Venus Freeze with much better results and more comfortable procedures.

VASER or Venus Freeze
Thank you for your question. I use both and many other technologies successfully in my practice. Without a full consultation it is difficult to say which of the many choices you would have, are best for you.

Laser lipo, fat cooling for batwing arms
Ultrasonic lipo (Vaser) is probably better but not perfect.
Also consider surgical removal of the loose skin (arm lift).
Fat cooling (Venus Freeze) will not tighten the skin.
Vaser removes fat and tightens skin a little.
But having inches of loose skin usually means surgery for a good result.
To my knowledge, nothing permanently corrects cellulite.
Any treatment that causes temporary swelling improves it - temporarily.
Best wishes.

Treatment of upper arms

The Smart Lipo will remove the fat and tighten the skin in one procedure. This can easily be done in a surgeon's office under a local anesthesia, but does have some downtime when compared to the fat freezing procedures. It will give a better more longer lasting result;...
