Comprehensive Guide to Laser Lipo Fat Reduction
Laser lipo, also referred to as laser liposuction, is a cutting-edge fat reduction procedure that utilizes the precision of laser energy to target and melt fat cells in areas such as the abdomen, submental (under the chin), and arms. The BodySculp device by Rohrer Aesthetics, which delivers a 1060nm laser, is at the forefront of this treatment. It’s designed for individuals seeking to reduce localized fat deposits without undergoing invasive surgery. This non-invasive procedure offers patients a safe and effective alternative to traditional liposuction, with results that can significantly enhance body contours.
How Laser Lipo Works
Our state-of-the-art BodySculp laser lipo system features four diode laser applicators, which precisely deliver laser energy to penetrate the hypodermis and target adipose tissue. Laser liposuction uses 1060nm diode laser technology to perform non-invasive fat reduction. This laser selectively targets and heats fat cells, causing thermal damage that leads to their destruction. This advanced system liquefies fat cells, which are naturally eliminated by the body’s lymphatic system. Over time, the body’s lymphatic system eliminates the dead fat cells, resulting in a noticeable reduction of fat in the treated areas.
Targeted Areas for Treatment
With laser precision, this treatment can help contour the abdomen, arms, and submental area for a slimmer, more toned appearance. Specific benefits for these areas include:
- Laser Lipo for the Abdomen: This is an effective way to target stubborn fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. The 1060nm laser energy from the BodySculp device safely melts fat cells in this area, allowing the body to naturally eliminate them.
- Laser Lipo for Submental Area (Under Chin): If you are not a good candidate for Chin Lipo, then Laser lipo for the submental area is an excellent option for patients looking to eliminate a double chin and create a more sculpted jawline.
- Laser Lipo for Arms: This helps reduce fat deposits and achieve a slimmer, more toned appearance in the upper arms. The 1060nm laser technology effectively targets fat cells in this area, providing patients with a non-invasive way to contour their arms and enhance muscle definition.
What to Expect During and After the Procedure
During a treatment session, patients are positioned comfortably on the treatment table while the BodySculp device’s electronic paddles are placed on the target areas. The 1060nm laser energy is calibrated to effectively melt fat cells while ensuring the skin and surrounding tissues remain unharmed. Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure, often describing it as a gentle warming sensation. The treatment is quick, taking about 25 minutes. This is a minimally invasive procedure that provides patients with an alternative to traditional liposuction without the need for extensive recovery time. Results can be seen within two to six weeks after treatment, with optimal results visible after about three months.
