Body Contouring FAQs

What Can You Expect From a Venus Legacy Treatment?

Venus Legacy is an innovative body contouring treatment. This state-of-the-art technology uses heat to reduce unwanted fat. It can also address sagging skin, reduce the appearance of your wrinkles, and smooth cellulite. Once you achieve the full effect of this technique, your skin will look tighter and more attractive.

There’s no need to feel nervous about using Venus Legacy to improve your body. This is a quick, non-invasive treatment that doesn’t require you to receive anesthesia or go through a lengthy recovery period. Most people feel very relaxed during their appointments. You won’t have any downtime after your treatment. Instead, you can immediately return to your normal schedule.

Why Do I Have Excess Fat and Other Imperfections?

It’s common to struggle with unwanted fat, cellulite, wrinkles, and other imperfections. There are a variety of reasons why people experience these issues.

Excess Fat

You’re probably familiar with the idea that eating too many calories and getting insufficient exercise can cause people to develop pockets of unwanted fat. Besides your diet and activity level, imbalanced hormone levels can cause your body to develop excess fat. Further, your genes can influence how much fat your body naturally stores.

Cellulite

Cellulite is dimpled, uneven skin that is commonly found on people’s buttocks and thighs. Although cellulite isn’t harmful, it may make you feel unhappy about how you look. Women are much more likely than men to develop this issue. In addition to gender, your genes, hormones, and diet can all increase your chances of experiencing this issue. Further, gaining weight or going through pregnancy may cause you to develop cellulite.

Wrinkles

Many people develop wrinkles and fine lines on their skin as they age. As you become older, your skin will weaken and become less elastic. These changes can make your face crease and wrinkle. Further, your genes play a large role in the appearance of your skin.

This means that if your parents developed wrinkles at an early age, you may struggle with this issue. Excess sun exposure can also harm the structure of your skin. In addition, smoking may increase your chances of experiencing wrinkles at an early age.

Sagging Skin

As people age, their levels of collagen and elastin decrease. Collagen and elastin are proteins that play an important role in the appearance of your skin. Collagen helps your skin stay firm and strong. Elastin keeps your skin flexible and elastic, as you might guess from its name.

As these proteins decrease, your skin becomes more likely to sag. Other lifestyle choices, such as your diet, alcohol consumption, and excess sun exposure can also increase your chances of experiencing sagging skin.

Improving Your Look

Excess fat, cellulite, and other imperfections can be very difficult to address on your own. Aging, genetics, hormones, and other uncontrollable factors can cause even fit, healthy people to struggle with these issues.

In particular, many people change their diets and take good care of their skin without seeing noticeable improvements in their appearance. Fortunately, Venus Legacy can reduce your unwanted fat and improve your skin in a safe, non-invasive manner.

How Does Venus Legacy Work?

This innovative technology improves your skin and reduces excess fat by applying heat under the surface of your skin.

Heating Your Skin

This treatment uses Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields and Multi-Polar Radio Frequency to heat your skin. The heat will stimulate your body to produce more collagen and elastin. It will also decrease your unwanted fat. Improving your levels of collagen and elastin will enhance the appearance of your skin.

Keeping You Comfortable

As your skin is being heated, a pulsed suction will pull your skin upward. This is called VariPulse. This suction will help the energy penetrate more effectively into your skin. It will also help you feel more comfortable during the treatment process.

What Issues Can This Treatment Improve?

People love Venus Legacy because it is so effective and efficient. Many cosmetic treatments can only target one issue at a time. In contrast, Venus Legacy can improve a variety of conditions at once.

An Efficient Treatment

Venus Legacy can reduce unwanted fat in your target area. It can also improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Further, this treatment can smooth your cellulite and tighten sagging skin. Addressing these issues will enhance your appearance and make you look more vibrant and youthful.

How Will I Prepare for My Treatment?

You will have an initial consultation before you receive this treatment. During this meeting, we will examine your skin. We will talk about your skin issues, unwanted fat, and any contouring treatments that you’ve had before. We’ll discuss your medical history, including any health conditions that you have. We’ll use this information to determine whether Venus Legacy is right for you.

Getting Ready

Preparing for your treatment session is easy. You don’t have to avoid any specific foods, medications, or cosmetic products during the weeks before your appointment. You also don’t have to change your routine or schedule. That said, if you are treating an area other than your neck or face, we suggest that you exercise before your appointment.

What Will My Treatment Be Like?

Venus Legacy treatments are extremely quick and gentle. Your treatment will take fifteen to thirty minutes. This time will vary based on the area of your body that we are treating. Since this treatment is so fast, some people schedule their appointments during their lunch breaks.

You should arrive at your appointment with clean skin that is free of creams, makeup, and other products. You should also take off any jewelry around your treatment area. During your treatment, we will monitor the amount of suction and heat that we apply to your body. We will adjust these levels depending on your unique needs. Most people are comfortable and relaxed during this process.

What Will My Recovery Be Like?

This is a non-invasive treatment that is very easy on your body. You will have no downtime after your treatment. You can return to your job, childcare responsibilities, and other tasks immediately. Many cosmetic treatments require you to follow complicated rules during your recovery period. For instance, you might have to avoid makeup and stay out of the sun.

Venus Legacy is different. You don’t have to follow any special rules or take extra precautions in the days and weeks after you receive this treatment. You can continue to live your life normally.

How Many Treatment Sessions Will I Need?

Your treatment schedule will be personalized to fit your unique needs. The condition of your skin, the areas that you would like to treat, and other factors will influence your treatment plan. That said, most people get six to eight treatments on each target area. We will perform your treatments once every week.

How Soon Will I See Results?

People see the best results when they receive multiple treatment sessions. Your results will continue to improve as you progress through your treatment plan. Once you complete your treatment sessions, you will notice further changes in your body for up to three to four months.

How Can I Maintain the Benefits of My Venus Legacy Treatments?

Since your body will continue to age after you complete your body contouring sessions, you will need to receive touch-up treatments to maintain your new look. People typically experience the best results when they have regular maintenance appointments.

In general, we advise patients to receive a touch-up treatment every three to four months. During your initial consultation, we can provide you with more information about how to maintain your new look. We can also recommend a special cellulite cream that may further enhance your results.

Can This Treatment Improve My Appearance Before a Big Event?

Many people want to look their best before they attend a wedding, family reunion, or other important life events. People may also want to rejuvenate their bodies before going on vacation at the beach. Since Venus Legacy can reduce your fat, decrease your cellulite, and improve your skin, it can make a significant difference in how you look. Enhancing your appearance may help you feel more attractive and confident during your big event.

Scheduling Your Treatments

Since Venus Legacy requires multiple treatments, you will need to begin your sessions before your special event. Further, you’ll need to give your body time to renew and refresh itself. Please tell us if you are trying to achieve the full benefits of your Venus Legacy treatments by a certain date. We can plan a schedule that will help you achieve your desired outcome within your specified timeline.

Is This Treatment Safe?

It’s normal to feel nervous when you decide to try a new body contouring treatment. But there’s no need to feel worried about Venus Legacy. This sophisticated treatment uses proven radiofrequency technology to gently heat your skin. This technique is safe and effective. Further, many people have successfully used Venus Legacy to tighten their skin and reduce their unwanted fat.

Who Is a Suitable Candidate for Venus Legacy?

Venus Legacy is a gentle treatment that is suitable for many people. This treatment is a perfect option for people who would like to improve wrinkles and sagging skin. Further, it’s a great choice for people who want to reduce their cellulite and body fat in a non-invasive manner. This technology is suitable for people with all types of skin.

Although this is a very safe treatment, it is not right for everyone. In particular, people who have silicone or metal implants in the target area may not be suitable candidates. This treatment may not be right for people who have varicose veins, skin-related autoimmune diseases, degenerative neurologic diseases, or cancer. Pregnant women and people with pacemakers also may not be suitable candidates for Venus Legacy.
