VelaShape III is the first non-invasive, medical device approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for body volume reduction and cellulite treatment.
VelaShape III is a device for reducing weight and eliminating cellulite, using an innovative method of combined exposure to four physical factors:
- Infrared light (IR) heats tissue to a depth of 3 mm;
- Bipolar radio frequency (RF) heats tissue to a depth of 15 mm;
- Vacuum provides targeted energy impact;
- Roller massage (lymphatic drainage) provides lymph drainage.
Key benefits of VelaShape III technology
- The safety and effectiveness of the VelaShape III procedure has been demonstrated in hundreds of clinical trials and more than 10 million procedures worldwide.
- In 1 minute the temperature of the treated area reaches 42 C;
- A recent study showed that 98% of patients accomplish a reduction in circumference of at least 1.5 cm after 1 treatment;
- Most patients reported no feeling of discomfort during or after the procedure;
- Excellent results can be achieved in 3-6 procedures;
- Combined effects of four techniques simultaneously make it possible to effectively impact deep tissues;
- The procedure does not necessitate special preparation or recovery period;
- VelaShape III is an excellent alternative to painful or invasive treatments for cellulite and stubborn fat deposits;
- The technique is suitable for all skin types.
Description of the procedure
You don’t need a special suit like you do for LPG. A special cream, VelaSpray (made in Israel), is applied to the skin to accelerate the process of breaking down fat cells, treating cellulite, and at the same time moisturizing the skin. The procedure lasts on average 30-120 minutes, and you feel warmth during a pleasant massage. Some patients may experience redness of the skin, which completely disappears within a few hours.
Most patients require an average of 3 to 6 procedures with weekly breaks to achieve long-lasting results. Afterwards, it is necessary to undergo maintenance procedures every six months.
Compatibility with other procedures
The result can be enhanced by combining VelaShape 3 body contouring with manual massage, plastic surgery, injections and procedures using other devices (synergistic effect):
- Manual modeling, lymphatic drainage and other massages;
- Wraps;
- Lipolitics;
- Ultrasonic lipolysis;
- Cryolipolysis;
- Liposuction;
- Electromagnetic stimulation devices;
- And others.
Also it is necessary to use scrubs, moisturize the skin with skin care products, drink sufficient amounts of water and walk to improve the functioning of the lymphatic system.
Indications for the procedure
- Different stages of cellulite;
- Swelling;
- Muscle pain;
- Local fat deposits;
- Post-operative scars;
- Decreased skin firmness.
The process at all stages is controlled by a specialist. The intensity of the effect increases gradually, with each appointment the doctor strengthens the infrared radiation and vacuum force to reach an impeccable result.
Contraindications to the procedure
- Presence of a pacemaker or defibrillator;
- Any other metal implants in the area of application of the device;
- Dermatological diseases or skin cancer;
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- Epilepsy;
- Diabetes mellitus.
Post-procedure care
Immediately after the procedure, the patient is recommended to engage in physical activity. Brisk walking or light exercise stimulates the lymphatic system. This allows the breakdown products of fat cells to be eliminated from the body faster. It is important to note that by doing sports after undergoing hardware body correction, you can prolong the result. In addition, you need to drink at least 1.5-2 liters of water per day.
Effect of the procedure
- Reduction of body volume and fat deposits;
- Disappearance of skin laxity;
- Reduction of stretch marks;
- Disappearance of signs of cellulite;
- Strengthened muscle tone.
Preparation for the procedure
2-3 days before visiting the clinic, you should stop taking anticoagulants and antibiotics, remove excess hair in the affected area and avoid treating the area with self-tanners, oils or creams.

VelaShape 3 is the first and only non-invasive medical device approved by the US Food and Drug Administration as a body volume reduction and cellulite treatment. LPG and Icoone do not have verified data on changes in body volumes of clients. The first sessions are quite painful. Then addiction sets in. After each session, the body seems to be squeezed out due to excess fluid leaving the body. It seems that several centimeters have gone away at once, even the shoes are becoming too big. But this effect is short-lived.
VelaShape 3 combines four technologies in one procedure: bipolar radio waves, infrared rays, pulsating vacuum and mechanical massage. LPG and Icoone use only vacuum and mechanical massage. That is why a full course on the VelaShape 3 device takes from 3 to 6 procedures, and on LPG and Icoone from 18 to 25 procedures, repeated after 6 months.
The difference is in the technology as a whole: in VelaShape 3, bipolar radio waves act on adipose tissue located at a depth of 2 to 15 mm. Infrared rays apply heat to the skin up to 3 mm in depth. By heating fat cells, the rays accelerate metabolism, cause fat cells to shrink and decrease in size, and help improve the appearance of the skin and increase its elasticity. Vacuum and mechanical massages act as anti-cellulite massage. Conclusion: effective impact on deep as well as superficial tissues. As for LPG and Icoone, the massage affects only the outer fat layer, no infrared rays or radio waves are used, and the appearance of the skin does not change.
There are no side effects from the VelaShape 3 procedure; as for LPG and Icoone, these can be:
- The appearance of hematomas. Patients with increased capillary fragility may suffer bruising and bleeding.
- Overstretching of the skin. If you have very thin skin, the procedure may cause skin laxity.
