Before The Treatment

1. Am I a good candidate for this treatment? / Will this treatment work for me?

The best candidate is someone who wants to improve the appearance of body fat and/or pockets of cellulite, but who doesn’t want surgery. An ideal candidate is also someone who is starting to lose elasticity in their skin and is showing early signs of sagging and wrinkles.

2. I have darker skin – can I still get this treatment done?

Yes. Venus Legacy™ uses technology that’s safe for all skin tones, even darker ones.

3. Can I do it during my lunch break?

Absolutely. Exact treatment times may vary depending on the patient, but a single session typically takes no longer than 30 minutes.

4. How many sessions will I need to see results?

Most patients receive 6-8 treatments per area. The exact number will depend on each individual person and the area being treated.

5. How often/far apart should the treatments be?

Treatments are done once a week.

6. Do I need to do anything to prepare for the treatment?

Just make sure your skin is clean. Do not apply any lotions, creams or makeup before your treatment. Remove all jewelry around the area being treated.

2. What does the treatment feel like?

The applicator will slowly get warmer till your skin reaches the needed temperature and stays within that temperature range. But if you do feel it’s too hot, just let the operator know and they can easily lower the temperature a bit. If the technician is using the VariPulse™ feature, you will also feel a gentle suction on your skin, like a very low-power vacuum, as the applicator moves around the area. This can also be lowered if needed.

3. Will it be painful?

Venus Legacy™ treatments are comfortable. The level of heat and suction can easily be adjusted to suit you.

After The Treatment

1. How will I feel after my treatment?

You’ll likely feel relaxed. The treatment is comfortable and some patients have even fallen asleep. The area may feel warm to the touch, but other than that, you’ll feel perfectly normal.

2. How long will the results last and are they permanent?

The treatments are cumulative. After your final treatment, your results will continue to improve for up to 3-4 months. After that, your face and body continue to age, so maintenance is recommended once a month or every 3-4 months, depending on the person.

3. Is there really no downtime?

Absolutely no downtime. The treatment area may look a little flushed and warm to the touch, but this will go away within 1-2 hours. You can return to your daily schedule immediately after your treatment.

4. Do I need to do anything after my treatment?

No, you do not need to do anything after your treatment.

5. Can I put on makeup or lotion right after a treatment on my face?

Yes, you can apply makeup and/or immediately after your treatment.
