The best candidate is someone who wants to improve their figure without surgery. They may have cellulite and/or excess body fat that they can’t get rid of with diet and exercise alone. An ideal candidate is also someone who is starting to lose elasticity in their skin and is showing early signs of sagging.

For safety reasons, you may not be able to get this treatment if you have/are:

• Active inflammation and/or infection in the treatment area

• Current or history of cancer

• A degenerative neurologic disease or any other disease around the treatment area that’s stimulated by heat (e.g. herpes)

• An Internal defibrillator/pacemaker

• Metal implants (excluding dental) in the treatment area

• Uncontrolled thyroid gland disorder

• Varicose veins

• Pregnant or are undergoing an IVF procedure

• Skin-related autoimmune diseases

• Silicone implants and/or injections in the area

Most patients receive 6-8 treatments per area. The exact number will depend on each individual person and the area being treated.

Treatments are done once a week.

Just make sure your skin is clean. Do not apply any lotions, creams or makeup before your treatment. Remove all jewelry around the area being treated.

Each session lasts 15-30 minutes, depending on the area being treated.

The applicator will slowly get warmer till your skin reaches the needed temperature and stays within that temperature range. But if you do feel it’s too hot, just let the operator know and they can easily lower the temperature a bit. If the technician is using the VariPulse™ feature (with Venus Legacy™), you will also feel a gentle suction on your skin, like a very low-power vacuum, as the applicator moves around the area. This can also be lowered if needed.
