VelaShape for Breast Reduction?
I am a 36DDD and would like to be able to wear a 36D. I don't want to have the bust reduction surgery. Can VelaShape be used to help reduce bust size?

I would not recommend you undergo VelaShape procedures to try to achieve a breast reduction.
I would not recommend you undergo VelaShape procedures to try to achieve a breast reduction. VelaShape can help improve cellulite and provide some skin tightening and circumferential reduction, but not significant enough for a good sized reduction.
If you are against having a more invasive breast reduction with visible scars on the breast, you may want to speak with a plastic surgeon about the option of liposuction for a breast reduction. A good place to start is at www.surgery.org which...

Vela Shape for Breast Reduction?
Thank you for the question.
Unfortunately, there is no nonsurgical means of breast reduction surgery ( despite many claims made by people selling pills, creams, and “miracle” technology).
If you're considering the procedure, consult with well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons.
Best wishes.

VelaShape for breast reduction
Today, patients have many different options to effectively reduce and contour their breasts. Unfortunately, there are no effective ways to reduce the breast with minimally invasive techniques.

Velashape not good for breast reduction

VelaShape can smooth cellulite, but won't make your breasts smaller
Don't waste your money. You can talk to your surgeon about options for breast reduction, but VelaShape should not be one of them. Liposuction alone is sometimes used for breast reduction. However, most women with large breasts aren't just bothered by the size of the breasts; they're also bothered by the shape (and sag) of their breasts. Using liposuction will make your breasts smaller, but won't do much to improve their shape.
For correction of size and shape, a more comprehensive type of...

Velashape or non-invasive liposuction for Breast Reduction?
Velashape will not reduce your breasts. Non-invasive liposuction techniques such as ultrashape, zerona, liposonix,or injections with mesotherapy are not proven yet. Let's say for they work. Eventually we will get one which does.
When removing fat from the breast you want to reduce size. The breast is a funny place though because you need to also think about cancer detection. If the fat is "zapped" to melt, will it calcify? Could these calcifications cause issues with breast cancer...
