The document provides information about Velasmooth® treatment for cellulite. It defines cellulite and discusses its causes. It then describes the Velasmooth® treatment which uses radio frequency and infrared light to heat the skin and fat tissues. This promotes fat metabolism and lymphatic drainage to reduce the appearance of cellulite. The treatment schedule and parameters are outlined along with expected improvements seen after 6-10 sessions.
