Cellulite affects most women and can often create feelings of physical insecurity and self-consciousness, particularly throughout the warm summer months when swimwear, beach vacations and sunbathing come to the forefront of our minds. Cellulite is said to occur in approximately 80% of women over the age of 20 and is caused when fat cells in the deepest layers of skin become over-inflated from an increase in fat storage and water retention. These fatty deposits create a ‘rippled’ or ‘lumpy’ effect on the skin, usually around the thighs and buttocks.

Velasmooth is an effective and revolutionary cellulite reduction treatment combining vacuum suction, rollers, and ELOS heating through Infrared Light and Bi-Polar Radio Frequencies. The treatment is effective in breaking apart fat cells and sending them to the lymph nodes for the body to dispose of naturally. By reducing the number of fat cells and affecting the intra-fat structure, the treated area becomes smoother and more aesthetically pleasing. Velasmooth is a safe non-surgical treatment for cellulite which has been approved by the FDA and is the only medical treatment proven to truly combat this complaint effectively.

One of the great advantages of Velasmooth cellulite treatment is that patients experience no ‘down-time’ and very few people experience any kinds of side-effects at all. With treatments taking as little as 30 minutes to perform, you are able to return to your normal daily activities immediately after. The cost of Velasmooth varies from clinic to clinic, however £150 will usually provide you with a thorough session. Most practitioners would recommend approximately 6 treatments to see results and the number of total sessions required will of course depend on the individual and the degree of cellulite from which they are suffering. The best thing to do would be to ask any aesthetics centre like Wimpole Aesthetics for further information.
