Lola Parrilla (**name changed), age 57, had been struggling with her cellulite for a couple of years before she discovered VelaShape. Living in Miami where the sun is always shining and the beachgoers are constantly stripped down to their swimsuits, Parrilla was feeling a bit self-conscious about her butt, which had “lost its gravity,” and her legs, which were speckled with cellulite. “We all worry about cellulite,” explains Parrilla.
Years before her current doctor recommended VelaShape, Parrilla had tried another cellulite treatment for her legs and buttocks, but the results weren’t even comparable to those from VelaShape. “Even after the first VelaShape treatment, I noticed how much it had lifted and reshaped my butt, and really reduced the cellulite on my legs,” she says.
What makes VelaShape different from other cellulite treatments are the different technologies combined into one machine. “VelaShape combines various energies like bipolar radio frequency and infrared light with a vacuum component to improve cellulite, tone the skin, and shrink fat cells,” says Miami dermatologist Stacy Chimento, MD. While Parrilla only had her legs and her buttocks treated, VelaShape can target areas where cellulite is commonly present.
