Cellulite Treatment
At rtwskin, we deliver a results-driven approach to cellulite reduction by combining Lanluma collagen-stimulating injections and subcision using a 21-gauge cannula with VelaShape III. These advanced medical treatments target the root cause of cellulite, releasing internal fibrous bands and stimulating deep collagen production—giving you smoother, firmer skin that improves gradually and lasts.
Led by Dr. Nina Sheffield, this protocol is especially effective for cellulite on the buttocks, thighs, hips, and surrounding areas.

Velashape III is a cutting-edge, non surgical body contouring system that combines infrared light, radiofrequency, and vacuum technology to target stubborn fat and cellulite. As a body contouring treatment, it is widely praised for its ability to firm skin and reduce circumference with minimal discomfort and no downtime. Those looking for cellulite reduction therapy or seeking advanced skin laxity treatment will find this solution particularly effective.
Shaping Results, Smoother Skin
VelaShape III delivers benefits that go beyond a surface-level improvement. Along with visibly smoother skin and enhanced body definition, clients often report feeling more confident and comfortable in their own bodies. By stimulating deep tissue processes like collagen synthesis and circulation, this non-invasive procedure supports long-term skin health and resilience. The treatment’s ability to reduce puffiness through lymphatic stimulation and improve skin texture makes it a well-rounded solution for anyone looking to rejuvenate their figure with minimal effort and no interruption to daily life

Long-lasting and effective results
Many clients see noticeable improvements after just one session, though a course of 3–4 treatments spaced two weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. Results can last 6–12 months, especially with periodic maintenance sessions every 3–6 months and a healthy lifestyle. Velashape III’s effectiveness can be seen in body contouring before and after comparisons, where treated areas look more contoured, firm, and rejuvenated.
The treatment does not replace weight loss or major fat reduction, but it significantly enhances body shape and tightens skin in areas resistant to diet and exercise.
How it works
How it works
The treatment combines multiple technologies in one device to deliver powerful and precise energy deep into the skin. Through a synergy of laser treatments for cellulite, bi-polar radiofrequency, infrared heat, and mechanical massage, fat cells are disrupted, lymphatic drainage is enhanced, and collagen production is stimulated. This leads to visible improvements in skin tone, firmness, and smoothness, especially for those seeking treatments to reduce cellulite or body sculpting.
Our approach integrates personalised skin analysis, realistic goal setting, and access to complementary procedures such as HIFU Body, Aqualyx, or Cold Body Sculpting to optimise your transformation.

I have been a client of RTWSKIN for quite some time, and my mom even travels from France to see Nina. She would not consider seeing anyone else but Nina.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does VelaShape work?
VelaShapeIII uses Elos technology, a synergistic combination of both Bi-Polar Radio-Frequency (RF) and Infra-Red (IR) light energy, with two types of tissue massage – mechanical and vacuum. The unique mix accelerates the use of stored fat, shrinks existing fat cells, and also increases lymphatic drainage. This is achieved partly by the precisely targeted and controlled heating of dermal and hypodermal tissue (using both IR and RF energy), while simultaneous massage smooth out the skin in order to optimise their delivery. In addition, the mechanical massage assists lymphatic drainage and helps soften stiffened tissue fibres, while vacuum massage also dilates local capillaries, oxygenates the tissues and helps boost metabolism.
What to expect during Velashape Ill treatment?
VelaShape III has been described as a warm deep-tissue massage. The treatment can be adjusted to ensure comfort with little to no post-procedure downtime.
How many Inches can I reduce from my circumference?
In clinical studies, patients reported an average abdomen reduction of about 2.5 cm 1.5 cm on the thighs post treatment series. In clinical trials, the range of Circumferential Reduction was between 0.5-3 inches.
What to expect after Velashape Ill treatment?
You’ll probably retain a sensation of warmth or heat for several hours after the procedure. You may also experience some redness, swelling, and (in rare cases) bruising, but these side effects will quickly subside.
You can return to your normal activities right away. Although you’ll notice some tightening and smoothing of your skin immediately, the shrinking of the fat cells takes time.
You may need to wait several weeks to see a significant reduction in cellulite. For best results, I usually recommend 1 to 3 treatment sessions, with a week interval in between sessions.
Maintaining the results
All anti cellulite treatments offer only a temporary solution. You’ll need periodic Velashape treatments to preserve your results. You’ll also need to make sure you continue to follow healthful lifestyle habits. By exercising regularly and eating nutritiously you can keep unwanted fat and the cellulite that accompanies it from reappearing on your body.
What clinical data is available on VelaShape?
The safety and effectiveness of the VelaShape treatment has been demonstrated in both multi-centre clinical trials and in more than 3.5 million independent treatments performed on patients globally. In addition, Syneron continues to collect clinical data from the increasing number of users.
