Our Aesthetic staff has been on a mission to find the ultimate combination of treatments for cellulite, fat reduction, and skin tightening! We have evaluated at least 10 different combinations. We have now found what we feel is the optimal non-surgical solution to all of these issues.
The Venus Freeze is a part of the solution - but we combine this technology with other modalities to give you an optimal result. To achieve optimal results with cellulite, we combine the Venus Freeze with the Velashape by Syneron. The Venus Freeze alone will not be effective on cellulite. If patients have deep lines and wrinkles, we combine Venus Freeze with the Refirme or Matrix IR. Combination therapy has allowed us to provide our patients the best solutions.

Deciding which treatment to use is always dependent on the candidate and their needs. For example, a person who has crepiness or loose skin but not a whole lot of fat to lose, may be a better candidate for Venus Freeze. Whereas someone who is somewhat fit but has specific areas of fat they cannot lose, like on the tummy or chin, maybe a better candidate for Slim Lipo.
Our practice offers Slim Lipo as an alternate choice for people who meet the criteria for body contouring which is not a replacement for Venus Freeze. The two modalities are meant to complement one another. Slim Lipo is a method of using laser to melt and remove fat permanently while at the same time tightening the skin where the fat is being removed. This allows a person to reshape their body with very minimal downtime. Venus Freeze is designed to enhance these results and in some cases is performed to obtain additional skin tightening.

We previously used Syneron's ReFirme to perform similar treatments. However, with the Venus Freeze we are able to more comfortably and quickly reach the target temperature and sustain it without the risk of arcing, sometimes seen with the Syneron ReFirme.
Our clients report the treatment feels like a hot stone massage and is very relaxing. We also use the Venus Freeze following our Tickle Lipo procedures. It promotes healing while tightening the skin of treated areas.
