Do you have a big event coming up that you want to look your best for? Maybe a wedding, family gathering or a photoshoot for a Christmas card? Picking the right time for your body contouring procedure can help you look sleeker before your big day.
Take a look at the timeline of results from three of the most popular body contouring treatments to help you plan.
VelaShape™ III
VelaShape™ III is a nonsurgical body contouring treatment that uses a combination of infrared, vacuum and radiofrequency waves. This treatment has been FDA-approved for temporary circumferential and cellulite reduction. VelaShape™ III can be an excellent option for women and men who aren’t interested in a surgical procedure.
Most people plan for a series of short VelaShape™ III treatment sessions spaced about 2 weeks apart, although you can also choose to have a single longer session typically lasting between 60 and 75 minutes. Result times vary from patient to patient, so check with your plastic surgeon.
Liposuction
VASERlipo® combines traditional liposuction with ultrasound energy to target fat in different ways.
If you’re considering liposuction, you should plan to take at least 1 week off work, although everyone will recover at their own pace. Results after liposuction appear gradually, so give yourself plenty of time to plan your big reveal.
