Vellasmooth

Jack in Miami asks about the Velasmooth.  What is the Velasmooth?

Dr. Salzhauer:  Well, the Vellasmoth is, and this is just one surgeons’ opinion, but I think its’ a pretty lame excuse for a waste of money. It’s a device that was touted to reduce cellulite via laser and RF treatment. And a lot of doctors bought this machine. I was not that convinced with the pictures and the data that they showed. And a lot of doctors that bought them a couple of years ago are now selling them at bargain basement prices. Because they don’t think the machine works that well. Really, unfortunately, there is no really great long term solution for cellulite. And the Vellus move is just one of the other gimmicks that are out there that are purportedly used to treat cellulite. You may see a temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite, but it will come back. It’s very expensive, and it’s not something that I recommend, it’s not something that I haven’t incorporated into my practice.

    To be honest the only thing that works for cellulite is good diet and excersice….Those massages dont work just drink a lot of water !!!

    I have done some treatment with this machine and all I have to say is that yes your skin looks better after the treatment because the skin is swollen, but once the swelling subsides the dimple’s come back. “does not work”

    I’ve found that drinking tons of water and weight training has significantly reduced my cellulite!
