I workout regularly doing heavy weights and eat quite healthy but I am still not able to improve the cellulite and lax skin on the back of my thighs/buttocks area. I have researched the many treatments out there and I have narrowed it down to Velashape 3 or Thermage. What treatment would hold the best results and last the longest?
I'm just finished my 3rd of 6 tmts of Velashape today. I am treating the back of both thighs and buttocks. I'm concerned the practitioner is not giving each section enough time with the machine to be effective. My tmt today was 22 mins for all 4 areas, as were the 1st 2. When asked, she told me that tmts weren't time based, but heat based and that each section was done when my skin reached the target heat temp (which was 110 degrees on my thighs today, according to her). Does this sound right?
For the past two summers I have had about 8-10 rounds of Vela Shape. When I am getting it done I love it, and I see about 75% improvement of my cellulite on my thighs (front and back). However when I take a break during winter, I feel like my cellulite is worse, much worse than from when I first started Vela Shape. Why would this be happening? I am still going about my same routine of eating healthy and working out. Could Vela Shape make my cellulite worse in the long run?
I had very mild cellulite that I sought treatment for. I had Velashape once before and the procedure was relatively painless with some noticeable smoothing. This time, I went to a different place and the procedure was very rough with extreme suction. The machine was set to rf 60. 10mins spent on each leg. I am suffering: - Severe swelling - Welt-like raised red spots on both sides - Severe indentations on my legs. (Will this go away? Not normal) How do I heal? Take advil? Apply cortisone?
I am scheduled to get 8 laser hair removal treatments at 5 weeks apart starting the first week of january on my full legs, arm pits, and brazilian. I struggle with very bad cellulite on the back on my thighs. Can I safely get Velashape lll for celluite on my thighs while also getting laser hair removal?
Im a 48 year old woman, petite and size 8. Ive always been slim and firm but in the last year the skin on my thighs has become lax and saggy. I have grade 1 cellulite. I went to a dermatologist clinic and they recommended either velashape or BTL Unison. I dont want any fat to melt, I only want skin tightening. Which is the best out of these two? I have also read comments from women on real self that velashape has given them thread veins. Is this really a side effect? Thanks
