UltraShape & VelaShape
At Bliss, we proudly offer the UltraShape Power device, a revolutionary body contouring solution customizable to any body shape. This state-of-the-art technology can complete a full treatment in under an hour. During a Candela-sponsored trial, 10 patients were treate, all of whom saw noticeable results. While some experienced more significant changes than others, the consistent success across diverse body types underscores the remarkable precision and effectiveness of this non-invasive treatment. The UltraShape Power device demonstrated an average 32 percent reduction in fat layer thickness at a 12-week follow-up, highlighting its significant fat reduction capabilities.
The UltraShape Power is particularly efficient for treating large areas. It uses selective, pulsed, focused mechanical ultrasound energy to target and destroy fat cells while protecting surrounding tissues, including blood vessels, nerves, and muscles. This ensures a safe, comfortable treatment experience with minimal temperature rise, making it virtually painless. However, for patients seeking both fat reduction and improved skin tone, we often combine UltraShape treatments with VelaShape sessions.
The VelaShape III device complements UltraShape by targeting cellulite and contouring smaller areas. It utilizes four technologies: infrared (IR), Bi-Polar radio-frequency (RF), pulsed vacuum, and massage rollers. This combination promotes deep tissue heating, collagen production, and increased local cellular metabolism, resulting in reduced skin sagging and improved skin texture. The mechanical tissue manipulation enhances circulation and lymphatic drainage, essential for healthy skin.
At Bliss, VelaShape III is our go-to treatment for cellulite, affecting 90 percent of women. Cellulite is complex, involving fat, skin tone, and fibrous bands. VelaShape addresses all these factors in a comfortable 30-minute session, making it an essential part of our body contouring arsenal.

The Ideal Candidate
Bliss offers advanced body contouring treatments best suited for individuals who are relatively fit, maintain a healthy lifestyle, and are near their ideal weight. It’s essential for patients to understand that maintaining healthy habits post-treatment is crucial for sustaining results. These treatments are not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle.
When addressing cellulite, Bliss finds that VelaShape is most effective for patients with mild to moderate cellulite. Those with severe puckering cellulite may not be ideal candidates for this treatment. However, most patients with mild to moderate cellulite are well-suited for VelaShape.
Both UltraShape Power and VelaShape III treatments are very comfortable, requiring no pre-medication. Most patients report no pain during the procedures. VelaShape treatments are often compared to a hot stone massage, while UltraShape Power treatments feel like a mild vibration, similar to a cell phone on the stomach.
Typically, UltraShape Power treatments are scheduled every two weeks, with three sessions in total. Each session lasts about 45 minutes. For VelaShape, treatments are also conducted every two weeks, with three to five sessions recommended. Each VelaShape session takes approximately 30 minutes.
There is no downtime following treatments with either device, allowing patients to immediately return to their normal activities without any restrictions. Bliss encourages patients to continue their daily routines post-treatment for optimal results.
