VelaShape

Velashape is the best non-surgical, no-downtime solution to treating problem areas including the arms, back, saddlebags, thighs, bottom, waist, abdomen, flanks and knees. Velashape treatment provides a toning and firming of the skin surface, temporary improvement to the appearance of cellulite and a temporary reduction to the circumference of treated areas. In addition, by increasing local blood circulation it can provide relief from minor aches and muscle spasms.

Velashape 3 is the third generation of the Velashape devices which has been developed to provide even better results for patients. At LBPS we use a combination of both Velashape 2 and Velashape 3 systems in order to harness the best of these technologies and allow optimum non-surgical body contouring. Unlike other clinics, we will assess your individual needs at your initial consultation and develop a unique treatment plan to give you the very best results. This can include using Velashape to tackle stubborn areas of fatty deposits, therefore providing an all in one body contouring treatment.

“I’ve been really impressed with Velashape – it has helped tighten and tone my skin and has really boosted my confidence. I work out regularly and eat well but this has amazed me and I am definitely a fan. I would recommend Velashape and LBPS to anyone.”

The system is safe, effective and FDA approved, combining Infra-red (IR) optical energy, Bipolar Radio frequency (RF), Vacuum Suction with mechanical manipulation technologies. The IR and RF technologies work together to provide dermal and sub-dermal heating. The vacuum and mechanical manipulations improve blood circulation, enhance lymphatic drainage and increase the metabolic rate of the adipose tissue.

VelaONCE

• ONE single treatment for most patients
• Instant results with full results seen in only 6-10 weeks following treatment
• In a study of 42 patients, an average abdominal circumference reduction of 2.6 cm reduction was reported following treatment
• Circumferential Reduction: Fat volume reduced
• Skin Firming: Skin is tighter and firmer
• Body Sculpting results: Firms & lifts

At your initial consultation an assessment will be made into your suitability for this treatment.

The unique VelaONCE treatment is made possible with the advanced technology of the Velashape 3 – increased radio frequency power – RF up to 150W, higher energy density for improved heating of the tissue and better energy delivery to the fat layer, and the new closed loop radio frequency mechanism with built in temperature sensor which delivers more consistent RF energy and enables a more precise treatment with increased comfort and consistent, reliable results.

• Before your Velashape Treatment
  • Shaving – shave the area to be treated the day before as hair may hinder the smooth movement of the applicator and overheat the treatment area (do not wax).
  • Exfoliation -exfoliate the skin 48hrs before the treatment.
  • Perfumes/Lotions – do not apply to the treatment area.
  • Tanning beds/tanning lotions/creams – do not use 2 weeks prior to or throughout the course of treatments.
  • Drugs – Avoid anticoagulants such as Aspirin throughout the treatment, as anticoagulants increase the possibility of bruising.
  • Heat – During the treatment you will feel suction and heat to the treatment area. The indication that the treatment is working is the point at which you can tolerate no further heat, known as the “end point.”
• After your Velashape 3 Treatment
  • After the treatment your skin may be slightly pink and you will feel heat in the treatment area for approximately 10-30 minutes.
• Potential Problems / Risks of Velashape Treatment
  • Mild discomfort – from the heat sensation
  • Excessive skin redness (Erythema)
  • Hair pinching – (to body hair)
  • Bruising – Uncommon
  • Changes to natural skin texture – (scratching, crusting, blister, burn)
  • Treating over Tattoos – possible risk of fading
• The Science Behind VelaShape

  Synergistic use of energies:

  1. Infrared Light (IR) heats the tissue up to 3mm in depth
  2. Bi-Polar Radio Frequency (RF) heats tissue up to 15mm in depth
  3. Vacuum ensures precise delivery of energy

  The combination of Infrared Light and Vacuum coupled with Bi-Polar Radio Frequency causes deep heating of the fat cells (adipocytes), their surrounding connective fibrous septae and the underlying dermal collagen fibres. Efficient heating of the adipocytes is achieved by higher output of the radio frequency. The optimal design of the electrodes and the application of vacuum allows for deeper and faster heat penetration. In turn, this promotes an increase in circulation, lymphatic drainage, cellular metabolism and collagen depositing. Furthermore it stimulates fibroblast activity and remodels the extracellular matrix bringing skin firmness and a resulting lift effect.

  VelaShape brings over 10 years of clinical experience, over a dozen studies and over 5 million independent treatments globally and more published studies than any other medical body shaping treatment making it the most recognised non-invasive body contouring treatment in the world today.

VelaShape III is CE marked for body contouring and FDA cleared for circumferential reduction of the abdomen.
