Although winter is quickly approaching and many of us have put our bathing suits away, there are still many reasons to want smooth skin.

In fact, we all want that smooth firm skin, but as we age many of us struggle with the unsightly appearance of cellulite on our thighs, arms, buttocks and abdomen.

The main factors responsible for cellulite are a lack of exercise, excess consumption of saturated fats, poor hydration and imbalances in hormonal function. More than 80% of all women are affected by cellulite. Maintaining and restoring the smoothness to our skin is something we can help you achieve at The Appearance Care Center at The Maas Clinic through the power of the VelaShape/VelaSmooth technology.
