What is laser lipo?

If you are among those who have worked hard for several months trying to get into better shape at the gym but still can't seem to lose those stubborn areas of fat, you may not be alone. Some areas like the lower belly, love handles and double chin tend to hold on to their fat no matter how much work you do. That's where laser lipolysis (Laser Lipo) comes into play; it is a non-invasive method of removing unwanted fat using lasers to melt away body fat with laser precision.

How It Works

Unlike the traditional method of doing liposuction (manually using a vacuum type of suction to remove fat), laser lipo uses medical-grade laser energy to aid in the removal of unwanted fat. The surgeon will insert a small fiber laser under your skin, then the heat generated from the laser has two effects: 

1. It melts away the membrane of the fat cells which convert solid state fat into liquid state fat, making it easier to remove.

2. The heat from the laser stimulates the production of collagen within the skin helping the skin to bounce back and become tighter after the fat has been removed, therefore eliminating the "saggy" look that can occur following the removal of a large amount of fat.

How Laser Lipo is Different from Traditional Liposuction?

Both methods are designed to sculpt the body, however, the experiences for the two methods are quite different.

Conclusion

Laser Liposuction is the most up-to-date and advanced technology to change your body contouring, and all without a high level of complication and trauma that can occur with other methods. It will be of benefit to you if you are at or near your target weight and wish to remove targeted areas of fat while also achieving tight skin at the same time.
