People : People have reported varying levels of discomfort with this procedure. Velashape technology uses suction and rollers to draw fat cells closer to the surface of the skin, then uses a heat source to breakdown fat. Some people report that the procedure is as uncomfortable as a deep tissue massage or a sun burn. Following procedure, it is normal for your skin to have a warm sensation and be reddended throughout the day. It is also normal to have some minimal bruising.

Velashape: Velashape is not particularly uncomfortable but the results are minimal at best. Even though surgery can be uncomfortable, it is the most reliable and effective therapy.
