Although it is an efficient method for immediate weight loss, replacing one's head with a smiley face balloon won't make an old dress fit in time for a high school reunion. Slim down with uncanny speed with today's Groupon to Suddenly Slimmer of Raleigh. Choose one of two treatments to sveltify the frame or detoxify the sole:

• $125 for three Velashape treatments ($425 value)
• $15 for one ion-cleanse detox footbath ($35 value)

Suddenly Slimmer is a mineral body wrap salon that harnesses the latest spa technologies, techniques, and techno rave hits to deliver space-age spa experiences. The FDA-approved Velashape circumferential reduction combines bi-polar radiofrequency and infrared light energy to boost the metabolism, drain lymphatic fluid, and reduce fat cells—de-thundering thighs by anywhere from 1 to 7.2 cm. The ion-cleanse foot bath, meanwhile, uses warm ionized water to draw the toxins out of your tootsies, which are then recycled into Mountain Dew.
