Velashape
This article was medically reviewed by Dr. Okan Morkoç

Velashape is an advanced non-invasive body contouring treatment designed to reduce cellulite, tighten skin, and target stubborn fat deposits. It combines four technologies—infrared light, bipolar radiofrequency, vacuum suction, and mechanical massage—to stimulate collagen production, improve circulation, and break down fat cells. Velashape is ideal for individuals who want a smoother, firmer body shape without surgery or downtime.
How Does Velashape Work?
Velashape uses a multi-action approach to treat problem areas effectively:
- Infrared Light (IR) – Gently heats fat cells and stimulates collagen production.
- Bipolar Radiofrequency (RF) – Further penetrates fat layers to break down fat cells and tighten skin.
- Vacuum Suction – Increases blood flow and enhances lymphatic drainage to remove fat deposits.
- Mechanical Massage – Stimulates circulation and reduces the appearance of cellulite.
This combination effectively reduces fat volume, firms the skin, and smooths cellulite, making it a popular treatment for thighs, buttocks, abdomen, and arms.
