‘fat blasting treatments that take just 20 short minutes’

Let’s be honest, no matter how hard we try most of us have stubborn areas of fat that are hard to shift…..even with a healthy diet and exercise! Here at The Grooming Guide we have been busy researching the most effective fat busting treatments for men. A firm favourite is VelaShape II which is available exclusively at The Cavendish Clinic in London. By offering the very latest in non-surgical aesthetic treatments including laser hair removal and body contouring, The Cavendish Clinic targets the specific needs of men. It is the brainchild of cosmetic surgeon Matthew James, who is on hand with his expert team of therapists to ensure complete relaxation.

My therapist Magdalena Kwiatkowska explained that VelaShape II has all the benefits of the popular original VelaShape but it has 20% more power which makes it more effective and treatments more speedy. The crucial thing about Velashape II is that it combines three modes of treatment to reduce fat and promote inch loss. It increases the metabolism of stored energy, increases lymphatic drainage and reduces or shrinks the size of the actual fat cells and fat chambers. So just how is it done?

1. Infrared light: Heats the tissue up to 3mm depth.  The precise heating ensures a safe, effective and fast treatment.  This process stimulates collagen and firms and tightens skin to help improve contour.

2. Bi-Polar Radio frequency: Heats tissue from 2 to 20 mm depth. This deep dermal heating increases circulation to improve in cellulite and enhance localised metabolism.

3. Vacuum & Mechanical Massage: Massage mechanisms enable precise targeting of energy to the tissue improving the removal of cellular waste and toxins and smoothing out the skin. 

My therapist Magdalena Kwiatkowska instantly put me at ease and although the sensations produced were initially a little awkward, my body soon adjusted to them. I really liked the fact that the treatments were quick and easy enough to squeeze into a lunch break. Although six sessions were recommended for ultimate results I noticed a difference after just one. My skin felt tighter, firmer and smoother and after a course of treatments I had achieved noticeable inch loss and gained a firmer flatter stomach!

Tester: Nick Cox Editor of The Grooming Guide

Verdict: ‘firmer skin and noticeable inch loss’

Price: A course of 6 treatments is recommended.  Treatments are priced from £75 for a single treatment or a course of six from £375 (6 for the price of 5)
