The National Enquirer also recently reported that as one of the only effective procedures to control cellulite, Velasmooth is sweeping the nation in popularity. The FDA approved Vela smooth in June 2005 for the temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite.

Although Vela Smooth is not a weight loss procedure, many patients appear as if they have lost weight due to the smoothing of the skin and the reduction of cellulite. Likewise, there is usually a noticable reduction in thigh circumference and skin texture.

Velasmooth is a non surgical procedure requiring from 10 to 12 visits over 5 or 6 weeks to be effective. The cost of Velasmooth varies by provider.

Vela Smooth is different from Endermologie in that it uses RF Energy to break down and shrink fat cells.
