Gradual improvement of the treated area can be seen following the first treatment - with
the skin surface of the treated area feeling smoother. Results in circumference and cel-
lulite reduction will be most apparent 6-8 weeks following the final treatment session.
The safety and effectiveness of the technology of the VelaShapeII™ system has been
demonstrated in both multi-center clinical trials and in over 3 million independent treat-
ments performed on patients around the world. In clinical studies, patients report an av-
erage reduction of about 1 inch post treatment series. In a multi-center study, 85% of
the treated areas have reported circumferences reduction of thighs of at least 1cm; rang-
ing up to 7.2cm in reduction. Following your complete treatment regimen, it is recom-
mended to get maintenance treatments periodically. Like all non-surgical or surgical
techniques, results will last longer if you follow a healthy, balanced diet and exercise
regularly.
Thornbury Laser Clinic also offers Botox and Juvederm dermal fillers for treatment of
lines, wrinkles and facial volume replacement. Photo-facials (I.P.L.) for sun damage,
redness, spider veins, wrinkle resurfacing, acne treatments and laser hair removal are

12 years of experience in this field. All treatments are under the direction of our Medical
Director. Our Esthetician, Giselle, provides facials, chemical peels and microdermabra-
sion as well as brow and lash treatments.” adds Joni. Complementary consultations are
available. All services are provided in a private and welcoming environment.

This innovative new device uses el
ō
s™ technology to precisely target
and heat fatty tissues within the treatment area in order to reduce the ap-
pearance of cellulite, as well as slim and firm targeted areas. “Highly
touted in the media, VelaShape II™ is the only health Canada and FDA
approved device that has been clinically approved to improve the look
of cellulite and shrink fat cells,” reports Joni, “In addition, the vacuum
and tissue manipulation evens out the skin to reveal a smoother figure. It
is an easy non-invasive, no downtime, reasonably comfortable deep
therapeutic treatment.”
Cellulite
is a term used to describe the dimpled appearance of skin caused by fat deposits
that are just below the surface of the skin. It generally appears on skin in the abdomen, lower limbs,
and pelvic region, and it usually occurs after puberty. When fat cells are enlarged, the rigid fibers
that form in fat chambers push toward the soft tissue of the dermis, causing the rough surface ap-
pearance, often described as "orange peel," "mattress," or "cottage cheese."
Most women in particular are all-too-familiar with the frustration of cellulite. No matter how rigid
the regimen of diet and exercise, cellulite can still plague areas such as the hips, thighs, buttocks
and abdomen. Even athletes and supermodels have battled the dimpled, lumpy appearance with
little success - until now.
Thornbury Laser Clinic is proud to offer VelaShape II™, an exciting new cellulite treatment offered
exclusively in the region. Proprietor Joni Fitzgerald is thrilled with the results clients are having fol-
lowing treatments done by Kathy De Langley RN at the clinic. “VelaShape II™ contours, shapes
and slims the body by improving cellulite and reducing circumference in as few as 4 treatment ses-
sions, providing dramatic results without downtime or significant discomfort. The abdomen, buttocks,
thighs, upper arms, or neck can be treated in less than 30 minutes.”
