Syneron Medical Ltd. has recently received FDA and Health Canada approval for the VelaSmooth, and also began trading on the NASDAQ under the symbol ELOS on August 6, 2004.
The select group of physicians who conducted Vela smooth clinical trials in the United States and Canada effectively reduced the appearance of cellulite, and noted significant reduction in the circumferential measurements of patients in the treated hip, waist and thigh regions of the body.
The VelaSmooth treatment is far less painful and time-consuming per treatment than traditional endermology treatments, and at the same time has much better results. The most commonly treated areas are the stomach, abdomen, love handles, upper arms, hips, thighs and buttocks. For optimal results, most patients receive eight to ten vela smooth treatments that last about 30 minutes. There is no downtime with the procedure; patients can resume normal activity immediately following treatment. Vela Smooth works on all skin types.
VelaSmooth treatments can also be used in conjunction with Lipodissolve or Mesotherapy treatments. According to leading experts, "independently each Vela Smooth treatment works well in achieving the desired results; but in combination, the results are outstanding."
RECENT NEWS ABOUT VELASMOOTH
(PRWEB) March 10, 2005 -- Vela Smooth by Syneron, is now available in the San Francisco Bay Area exclusively at Renu LaserSpa. This new treatment has been proven to be the most effective non-invasive treatment for the reduction of unsightly cellulite. Eighty percent of all women over twenty complain of "cottage cheese" thighs. And until this breakthrough, patients had very few options in dealing with this condition; expensive and risky liposuction surgery, less effective endermologie, lotions and potions that only provided temporary cosmetic improvement or long cover-ups at the beach!
VelaSmooth uses deep penetrating RF energy combined with more superficially active infrared energy stimulate fat cell metabolism. The Vela Smooth device gently kneads and applies pulsing suction to improve local circulation of the affected area, carrying lipolysis waste products away. This also stretches fibrous bands that dimple the skin creating a smoother appearance. This combination of actions is what gives VelaSmooth a huge advantage over other systems including endermologie. Clinical studies have consistently demonstrated a 20% to 50% improvement in skin contour appearance as well as a reduction in measurements for many patients.
