What to Know About Your First VelaShape® Session

Your first VelaShape® session is designed to be comfortable and stress-free. One of our clients shared that, despite their initial anxiety, they felt relaxed and cared for the moment they walked in. This is totally normal, and we'll guide you through everything you need to know about preparation, what to expect during your session, and aftercare tips to help you maximize results.

Getting Ready for Your VelaShape® Appointment

Before your visit, it’s helpful to wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the areas being treated. If you have sensitive skin or any skin conditions, let us know ahead of time so we can ensure the best experience for you. We generally recommend avoiding lotions or creams on the treatment area on the day of your appointment to ensure effectiveness and comfort.

What Happens During Your VelaShape® Session?

When you arrive, we’ll take some time to discuss your specific goals and comfort levels. Then you'll lie down in a private room while your therapist applies a soothing gel to the treatment area. You'll feel a warm sensation as the VelaShape® device gently glides over your skin, using a combination of infrared light, radiofrequency, and vacuum suction. One first-time client noted, "I was nervous at first, but the warmth was so soothing, I actually started to relax and enjoy it." Each session lasts about an hour, and most people find it pleasant and revitalizing.

I was a bit anxious, but the staff made me feel so comfortable. It was a relaxing experience!"

Caring for Your Body After Treatment

After your VelaShape® session, you might notice some temporary redness or warmth in the treated area, this is completely normal. We encourage you to keep hydrated and avoid heat exposure, such as saunas or hot showers, for 24 hours to enhance your results. Many clients notice that their skin feels smoother and tighter right after the treatment. Consistent follow-ups, usually every week or two, can help achieve the best outcomes, typically around 4-6 sessions are recommended for optimal results.
