Velashape I Vs Velashape III?

Question

What's the difference between the models? Will I get good results with the 1st style? They told me it's not painful..

Jed H. Horowitz, MD, FACS · Answer

Velashape 1 and Velashape 3 are in reference to the machine models. We currently have Velashape 3 which is the newer model. My office  recommends three different procedures incorporating it: ThermiSmooth, VelaShape #3, and Cellfina or Cellifina Platinum.  The #Velahape 3 is totally redesigned and has three components including infrared, RF and massage to stretch and break up cellulite  bands.
Cellulite is extremely common. An estimated 100 million women in the USA between the ages of 20-54 voice concern about #cellulite. Cellulite is caused by fibrous bands underneath the skin that compress #fat, #diet and #exercise do little to help the appearance of this condition.  Clinical treatments offer the most effective and longest lasting results.  We can now offer improvements that should last at least 2-3 years. 
VelaShape 3 is a non-invasive treatment combining #massage rollers, a vacuum to elevate the target# tissue, infrared lights to heat the target tissue, and bi-polar radio frequencies which guide the heat; all together helping to reduce the appearance of cellulite. I suggest over six sessions, one week apart.  The combination of these technologies causes the connective tissue under the skin to heat up, stimulating collagen growth, #improving cellulite and skin elasticity.  #VelaShape 3 may also be used for eliminating fat cells around the stomach and thighs.

We have a Velashape II for several years and we have so many happy patients. The science of  each generation VelaShape is the same, so does the result. The newest VelaShape machine added several technician friendly factors, such as a smaller handle, an automatic temperature monitor&hellip;.

We have used the original Velashape for years and obtained very good results.   Although the newer machines have more power, results often depend on the practitioner and the condition you are treating.  In our experience, cellulite responds best, while treatment for fat reduction on larger areas tends to be much less effective.
Hope that helps
