VELASHAPE^TM CONSUMER Q&A

Q: What is VelaShape^TM?
A: VelaShape^TM is the fastest, clinically-proven, FDA-approved non-surgical solution for the temporary reduction of the appearance of cellulite, as well as temporary reduction of thigh circumference.

Q: How does VelaShape^TM work?
A: VelaShape uses a combination of light (infrared) and bi-polar radio frequency (RF) energies (elos), as well as mechanical rollers and vacuum suction, to manipulate and heat the superficial fat tissue layer that contributes to cellulite and fatty deposits. The heat from the light and RF energies increases metabolism of this fatty layer and shrinks the size of fat cells. The mechanical rollers and vacuum suction act on the blood vessels to increase circulation to the local area, as well as massaging the skin to achieve a smoother, less dimpled surface appearance, and reduced thigh circumference.

Q: How does VelaShape^TM feel?
A: Most patients equate their VelaShape^TM treatments to a warm deep tissue massage.

Q: How long will the results last?
A: Depending on your lifestyle, results can last from one month to six months and beyond. If you are sedentary, we'd recommend a touch up treatment each month. If you exercise and eat right, we have patients maintaining results six months and beyond. On average, we recommend patients come in once every two to three months for a touch up treatment to keep their skin smooth.

Q: Is this a permanent cure for cellulite?
A: There is no permanent cure for cellulite. We've found the VelaShape^TM to be the most effective treatment for reducing the appearance of cellulite but the results are not permanent and cellulite will likely return. Maintenance treatments are built into our package so our patients can keep their cellulite at bay.

Q: Will VelaShape^TM reduce fat on areas of my body other than my legs?
A: VelaShape^TM can effectively contour and reshape many areas of the body. Some off our patients most popular treatments at the stomach, love handles, and arms. New mothers enjoy the treatments because it not only helps them to get their old shape back faster but it also helps to tighten loose skin on their stomachs.

Q: Are there any similar products on the marketplace that use the same technology?
A: No product on the market utilizes the same combination of technology as VelaShape^TM. Syneron's unique elos technology is able to safely and comfortably heat the subcantaneous (fat) tissue to a point where the cells begin to metabolize their contents and shrink.

Q: What are the side effects of the treatments?
A: Short term reddening of the area treated is common. A few patients in clinical studies experienced minor bruising. The most common side effect of the treatments is urination after treatment. The treatment effectively moves not only the built up water in the fat pockets that make up cellulite but also the chemicals emitted by the fat cells as they metabolize.

Q: How does VelaShape^TM compare to liposuction?
A: VelaShape^TM will never replace liposuction. VelaShape^TM is for patients who do not want to go under the knife yet desire fast, visible results for their body shaping and contouring needs. VelaShape^TM is often used post-liposuction to decrease the cellulite that remains on the top level of the skin, as well as smooth irregularities in the skin caused by the procedure.

Q: What is the difference between VelaSmooth and VelaShape^TM?
A: VelaShape is more powerful than VelaSmooth. There has been a significant increase in the amount of energy the device is able to deliver up to 10 times more heat to the subcutaneous (fat) tissue, with the same level of comfort as the VelaSmooth device. This higher intensity allows for greater localized metabolism increases and also reduced treatment time, frequency and number of sessions.

Q: How quickly will I see results?
A: Results are visible with as few as four office visits. The higher power of the VelaShape^TM enables much quicker results in both cellulite and circumferential reduction applications. With four treatments each spaced one week apart, patients will be able to see thinner thighs and improved skin texture within a 30-day period.

Q: How many inches can I plan to lose?
A: Clinical studies of VelaShape^TM treatments found average circumferential reduction in the treated thigh was 0.75 inch.

Q: How many treatments do I need?
A: We recommend six treatments to see full results, with each treatment spread one week apart.
