- Sensitivity varies, but most clients describe the treatment as pleasurable with only a deep heating sensation, like that of a warm deep tissue massage.
- After treatment, the sensation of under-skin warmth and a feeling of tightness may last for some hours and is sometimes accompanied by mild redness.
- Benefits last longest if a healthy lifestyle and body weight are maintained, with regular exercise and stretching plus daily moisturisation to keep the skin elastic.

How does VelaShape III work?
VelaShape IIIuses elōs Plus technology, the only non-invasive body shaping treatment to combine four different technologies, Bi-Polar Radio-Frequency (RF) and Infra-Red (IR) light energy, and two types of tissue massage - mechanical and vacuum.
The unique mix accelerates the use of stored fat, shrinks existing fat cells, and also increases lymphatic drainage. This is achieved partly by the precisely targeted and controlled heating of dermal and hypodermal tissue (using both IR and RF energy), while simultaneous massages to smooth out the skin in order to optimise their delivery.
