Book an Appointment

VelaShape 3 can help address the appearance of cellulite, skin laxity and body contours on areas such as the thighs, buttocks, abdomen, arms, flanks and neck. The treatment may be received on its own, or planned alongside complementary in-clinic options such as non-surgical fat reduction technologies, muscle-toning approaches or other skin tightening protocols, depending on individual goals, body composition and the structural features the specialist identifies during the assessment.

Because every patient’s skin, body and medical history are different, VelaShape 3 at our Dermapure clinics in Edmonton always begins with a personalized consultation. Together with your specialist, you will assess whether VelaShape 3 is the most appropriate option for you and discuss a realistic treatment plan, the expected results and the possible side effects.

What to Expect During Your Session

Step 1

Personalized Assessment

During your detailed consultation, we will discuss your aesthetic goals, including circumferential reduction, areas of concern, and overall body composition. This personalized approach allows us to tailor the treatment plan to your specific needs. Factors such as body mass index (BMI), skin elasticity, and targeted areas will influence the treatment plan, and the number of sessions required. Ideal candidates have a BMI of 30 or less and have achieved their weight loss goals prior to treatment.

Step 2

Take Pictures

Photographs taken before the treatment will provide a visual reference, helping you track progress. After photos will allow you to appreciate the changes in your body contour, skin texture, and circumferential reduction following the procedure.

Step 3

Proceed with Treatment

The VelaShape III procedure combines four advanced technologies to target sagging skin and cellulite. During each session, infrared laser and bipolar RF energy are used to heat the treatment area, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin while enhancing the strength of connective tissue. Gentle suction brings the skin closer to the energy source for maximum effect, and the treatment includes massage rollers to stimulate circulation and further enhance results. Patients often describe the experience as comfortable, with a warming sensation that feels similar to a deep tissue massage. A session typically lasts around 30-45 minutes, and many report visible improvements in skin texture and firmness following the treatment, contributing to increased confidence in their body contours.

Step 4

Return to Normal Activities

VelaShape III is non-invasive, with no downtime required. After your session, you may resume normal activities, though it’s recommended to avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours. Some patients may experience mild redness or swelling, but this typically resolves within a few hours.

Follow-Up & Maintenance

For optimal results, multiple sessions may be recommended. Regular maintenance treatments every 6-12 months can help preserve the improved contours, skin tone, and reduced cellulite appearance over time.

Contraindications

Individuals being treated for serious conditions such as cancer, liver or kidney disease, or circulation disorders should consult with their doctor before undergoing VelaShape III. VelaShape 3 is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is a VelaShape 3 Treatment?

VelaShape is a non-invasive body contouring treatment designed to reduce the appearance of cellulite, firm the skin, and improve body contours. It combines infrared light, bipolar radiofrequency (RF), and gentle suction. These technologies work together to heat the skin’s deeper layers, stimulating collagen and elastin production, improving skin texture, and promoting lymphatic drainage while reducing fat cell size. The treatment is safe for all skin types and is typically used on areas like the thighs, buttocks, abdomen, arms, neck, and flanks. Sessions last about 30-45 minutes, with no downtime required.

Does VelaShape 3 really Work?

Yes, VelaShape has been shown to work for many individuals, regardless of skin type. It helps reduce the appearance of cellulite, firm the skin, and improve body contours by using a combination of infrared light, radiofrequency (RF), and gentle suction to stimulate collagen and elastin production while targeting fat deposits. Results vary from person to person, but many see improvements after a few sessions, with continued enhancement as collagen production increases. Regular maintenance treatments may be needed to sustain results over time.
