Elos Evaluated in Journal of Cosmetic Laser Therapy
Cellulite is a highly frustrating problem, mainly because it is hard to treat. One study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Laser Therapy in March examined a device, marketed as Velasmooth, which is a combination of radiofrequency energy, infrared light and mechanical manipulation of the skin.
Doctors Sadick and Magro showed some positive results in the study. Their method involved the treatment of sixteen subjects with cellulite twice a week for six weeks. One thigh was used as a control, while the other underwent treatment.
According to the study:
The overall thigh circumference decreased in 71.87% of the treated legs. The mean decrease was 0.44 cm of the lower thigh and 0.53 cm of the upper thigh. There was significant visual improvement in cellulite and skin texture. At the final follow-up visit, 50% of subjects had greater than 25% improvement (good be very good)
Is anyone using the ELOS technology who can offer feedback on it?
