Shape up for the summer with the cellulite treatment that now boasts Kim Kardashian as one of its biggest fans. The star of US reality show, ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’, revealed her own mild case of cellulite in her thighs and buttocks – admittedly perhaps the best known assets of her frame – and successfully sorted them out using VelaShape.
Now, those looking to experience VelaShape for themselves can do so exclusively at Thérapie Clinic. The treatment is the first and only FDA cleared non-surgical device for Cellulite and Circumferential Reduction and aims to reduce cellulite and contour the body by using a combination of bipolar radio frequencies, infra-red light energy and vacuum massage. Skin is heated, sucked, rolled and toned with the end result promising a smoother, firmer and cellulite-free figure. VelaShape works on all the usual problem areas like the bottom, stomach and thighs, which often are difficult to target effectively through exercise alone.
Manager of Thérapie Limerick, Gabbi Perozzi, explains that after a consultation by a trained specialist, the target areas are decided upon and a heat-activating liquid is applied to skin. A suction device containing the infra-red lights then gets to work by rolling and heating skin in sections. The heat is caused by a combination of bipolar radio frequencies and infrared light energy, which combine to shrink the size of fat cells and fat chambers deep within the skin. Once a certain temperature has been reached under the skin, the rollers and the vacuum device combine to firm and tighten. “The precise heating ensures a safe, effective, fast treatment with no downtime,” adds Gabbi.
Once VelaShape has been administered, an exercise and nutrition plan is drawn up to help ensure clients get the best from the treatment and minimise the build up of cellulite in the future.
In the long term, users should expect gradual smoothing of skin’s surface with a noticeable reduction in cellulite and a reduction and reshaping of the treated area. However, Gabbi adds that clients must stick to the plan in order to see results. This includes body brushing and adhering to the diet plan. Proven results in a clinical multi-center study have shown that 85% of people who used VelaShape have noted a reduction in the treated areas of at least 1cm to up to 7.2cm off their thighs specifically.
“Anyone who has tried the programme can see the difference that it makes,” says Gabbi. Six treatments are offered in the package, which can take place once every week or three weeks, dependent on the area treated.
