Read on to learn all about noninvasive laser liposuction, including what it can accomplish and how it might be able help you meet your body shape goals.
Your target weight, but not your ideal shape
If you’re like many people, you’ve learned that eating a wholesome diet and getting plenty of exercise can go a long way in helping you reach and maintain a healthy weight.
Unfortunately, you’ve also probably learned that these tried-and-true weight control strategies can’t always give you the lean and contoured body shape you’re after.
You can’t “spot-reduce” through diet and exercise
When you shed excess weight through diet and exercise, you can’t control how your body loses fat, or which pockets of fatty tissue it selects to burn away and which areas it continues to maintain. This is exactly why reaching your target body weight doesn’t necessarily translate into attaining your ideal body shape.
Laser liposuction is a noninvasive spot reduction tool
If this describes you — at or near your target body weight, but not at your ideal body shape — you may be a perfect candidate for laser liposuction.
As a body sculpting tool, “laser lipo” is an ideal noninvasive, surgery-free solution for stubborn areas of fat that don’t respond to diet and exercise, including localized pockets of fat that look disproportionate to the rest of your body.
Am I a good candidate for laser liposuction?
Laser liposuction (also known as laser lipolysis) may be an excellent option for you if:
- You’re generally healthy and in good physical shape
- You want to spot-reduce specific areas of persistent fat
- You’d like to attain a slimmer, more defined profile
- You want a noninvasive alternative to surgical liposuction
- You’re within 20 pounds of your target body weight
- Your body weight is stable (you’re not actively losing weight)
- You have good skin elasticity and minimal excess skin
Laser liposuction isn’t a weight-loss tool, however, so it shouldn’t be thought of as a substitute for diet and exercise, or as an easy, effort-free weight control solution.
How laser liposuction can transform your body
Laser liposuction is a completely noninvasive (no incisions) spot-reducing treatment that uses therapeutic laser energy to permanently eliminate unwanted areas of fat.
Targeted, painless heat energy
Through a specialized hand-held applicator, laser lipo delivers targeted heat directly to your fat cells — without affecting your skin tissue or the cells of nearby structures. As the laser energy painlessly penetrates the targeted fat cells, it “superheats” them from the inside out, damaging their integrity so they no longer work properly.
Once your body recognizes that the targeted fat cells are no longer functional, your lymphatic system permanently flushes them from your body over the course of several weeks.
Spot-reduce your “problem areas”
As your body’s natural corrective mechanisms work to get rid of these damaged cells, you’ll achieve a tighter, slimmer physique without diet, exercise, or surgery. Laser liposuction can sculpt away stubborn localized fat deposits on many areas of the body, including:
- Inch-adding midsection and belly fat
- Oversized love handles/muffin top
- Excess thigh and hip fat; saddlebags
- Pinchable upper arm and back fat
Although laser liposuction can eliminate persistent fat in these areas, it can’t remove cellulite. Luckily, you can address both problems by combining laser lipo with cellulite treatment.
Lymph drainage massage accelerates the process
At Smooth Body Contours, our laser liposuction package includes eight sessions of drainage massage to enhance and accelerate your body’s natural waste removal process following the procedure.
Lymph drainage is a highly specialized massage technique that’s used to help clear toxins from your body, neutralize your lymph system, and increase lymph flow. After laser lipo, it helps your body process and eliminate damaged fat cells faster, helping you unveil your best body more quickly.
