Velashape?

Velashape Vs Cynosure's Tri Active anyone?

Postby RedDragoniv » Sat Aug 16, 2008 10:25 pm

I tried 2 treatments so far of the Tri Active a laser and massaging action. Where I learned that the velasmooth is radio waves and not laser. I have not noticed much of a change and the Tri Active does not claim to reduce inches as does the Velashape. I think the Tri Active is an older machine and not sure if it will work or not and dont want to invest 200.00 per treatment for 20 treatments for a 30% chance of reduction. I know I would still have to continue since once you stop it comes back.

I just had lipo and my doctor didn't recommend it. EIther of it. Has anyone had some expereince with either or both of these treatments and do you think they are worth it?nPlease email me
thanks

I would really love to hear others' experience w/this as well. I'm an avid exerciser & at 41 have managed to stay in pretty good shape, but genetics has caught up with me & my rear end--small & pretty muscular--has turned into my mother's, just not as large. I wonder, if it's a genetic thing, will Velashape work?

I've been scouring the internet & I don't put much stock in the RealSelf.com reviews--people who're angry about something will put more energy into criticizing it, people who're happy with something generally won't make the effort. The only thing I've found that's remotely scientific is an interesting study from Vanderbilt U that says it's effective for at least half of those who go through the treatments:

I just don't know if I should go through with this or not. It's an awful lot of money for something that might or might not work. :?

velashape

Postby booboo » Tue Sep 01, 2009 9:55 am

I'm very skinny. I see alot of cellulite on my legs. Nothing works. I have finally come to the realization that it is a gravity issue. I've always been very thin and I do not intend on getting a thigh lift. I'm going on 57. If I lost anymore weight to get rid of the fat, I would be a stick. Velashape did not work for me. My doctor tried 3 treatments and we saw no results. He told me if you haven't seen any results after 3 treatments, don't waste your money. My new motto is "JCIU" (just cover it up). Alot cheaper and easier. I just wear sheerer clothes so you can see my form but not the yucky part!

Yes, it really works!

Postby LauraMax » Fri Oct 02, 2009 7:45 am

I just finished my 3rd treatment, & I am very pleased with the results! I'm having it done on my butt & thighs. The dimples have all but disappeared, my skin is smoother & much tighter. :) :) :) :)

Now, the doc did say I was the perfect candidate since I exercise at least an hour a day, am very health conscious & almost obsessive about eating right (BTW, this does not mean dieting just to stay thin, it means dieting to stay healthy & fit), and am at an age that I've caught it in enough time for it to be preventive. I cannot speak to others' lifestyles & health, but it has worked beautifully for me. I have 3 more sessions, & from the results I'm seeing I might just get my 30 YO rear end back. =D>
