We begin this post with a mythological note, an evocation of Sisyphus, founder and king of Ephyra, whose name is not remembered for his merits as a ruler, but for his punishment: as you know, he was condemned to carry a stone to the top of a mountain, a stone that, before reaching the summit, rolled down the slope again and again. And back to the start.
Thus, the myth of Sisyphus is a metaphor for the futile and incessant effort of human beings.
And we think it is fitting because, for many people determined to reduce their body volume, diet and exercise are not enough to achieve the desired silhouette, a harmonious body. They make tireless efforts, but in vain.
However, medicine can help them.
At their service, and for some time now, is mesotherapy, that therapeutic method that allows the application, in the area to be treated, of small subcutaneous infiltrations with the minimum and precise dose of the indicated pharmaceutical or homeopathic product.
And now coming to its aid is Vela Smooth, a medical device that combines four techniques: infrared, radiofrequency, vacuum therapy and massage, to reduce volume and improve blood circulation.
Vela Smooth can be used wherever there is an accumulation of adipose tissue, that is, wherever there is cellulite: thighs, buttocks, knees, hips and arms.
We open a parenthesis here to remember that although some races suffer from it more than others, cellulite is common to all: it is estimated that more than 80% of women (some speak of between 85% and 98%) have some degree of orange peel skin after puberty. And that although men do not usually suffer from it, they are not spared either.
Well then. We insist. The combined use of:
- The light energy that reduces the size of localized adiposity and shapes the body contour (infrared).
- A cellular activator that helps dissolve fatty tissue and promotes the generation of collagen and elastin (bipolar radiofrequency).
- The suction, which produces lymphatic drainage of the edematous fluid present in cellulite (vacuum therapy). And,
- The roller massage of the affected area.
Or, in other words: the use of Vela Smooth, which is the treatment that simultaneously uses these 4 therapeutic elements, makes it possible to mobilize, heat and drain fat and, as a result, reduce volume.
And the results come quickly, they are evident from the first sessions, although you have to persevere and complete the treatment cycle (the number of 30- to 50-minute sessions indicated by the specialist).
A good way to put an end to the curse of Sisyphus.
