Cellulite Reduction
Cellulite is much more common than you’d think. It impacts as many as 90% of women at some point in their lifetime, often due to hormonal changes, genetics, diet, and other lifestyle factors. But as common as it is, it’s not something you have to live with.
Venus Concept’s non-surgical celluilte treatments are powered by innovative technology that helps shrink fat cells to improve the appearance of bumps and dimpling. These treatments are very comfortable and can be customized to target cellulite at any stage with no downtime.
Venus Versa™ body contouring and cellulite reduction treatments work by using energy delivered through a combination of Multi-Polar Radio Frequency and Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields to produce heat under the skin’s surface. This process helps to naturally increase collagen and elastin fibers while also shrinking the volume of fat cells. The result is a more sculpted and slimmer-looking body, tighter-looking skin, and cellulite that almost disappears.
FEATURES:
- Technology that delivers noticeable results
- Safe for all skin tones
- Comfortable treatments with no downtime
- Quick treatment sessions last no more than 30 minutes
Before the Treatment
The best candidate is someone who has pockets of cellulite and/or excess body fat that they can’t get rid of with diet and exercise alone, but who doesn’t want surgery.
For safety reasons, you may not be able to get this treatment if you have/are:
- Active inflammation and/or infection in the treatment area
- Current or history of cancer
- A degenerative neurologic disease or any other disease around the treatment area that’s stimulated by heat (e.g. herpes)
- An Internal defibrillator/pacemaker
- Metal implants (excluding dental) in the treatment area
- Uncontrolled thyroid gland disorder
- Varicose veins
- Pregnant or are undergoing an IVF procedure
- Skin-related autoimmune diseases
- Silicone implants and/or injections in the area
Yes. Venus Concept’s skin resurfacing treatments use technology that’s safe for all skin tones, even darker ones.
Absolutely. Exact treatment times may vary depending on the patient, but a single session typically takes no longer than 30 minutes.
Most patients receive 6-8 treatments per area. The exact number will depend on each individual person and the area being treated.
Treatments are done once a week.
Just make sure your skin is clean. Do not apply any lotions, creams or makeup before your treatment. Remove all jewelry around the area being treated.
During the Treatment
Each session lasts 15-30 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
The applicator will slowly get warmer till your skin reaches the needed temperature and stays within that temperature range. But if you do feel it’s too hot, just let the operator know and they can easily lower the temperature a bit. If the technician is using the VariPulse™ feature, you will also feel a gentle suction on your skin, like a very low-power vacuum, as the applicator moves around the area. This can also be lowered if needed.
After the Treatment
You’ll feel relaxed. The treatment is comfortable and some patients have even fallen asleep while they were getting treated. The area may feel warm to the touch, but other than that, you’ll feel perfectly normal.
The treatments are cumulative. After your final treatment, your results will continue to improve for up to 3-4 months. After that, maintenance is recommended once a month or every 3-4 months, depending on the person.
Absolutely no downtime. The treatment area may look a little flushed and warm to the touch, but this will go away within 1-2 hours. You can return to your daily schedule immediately after your treatment.
No, you do not need to do anything after your treatment.
Yes, you can apply lotion immediately after your treatment.
