Laser Lipo is a procedure that allows for the removal of fat cells in localized areas by way of laser-generated heat. Laser-assisted liposuction is growing in popularity due to the many uses of lasers have in the medical world and their potential to be highly effective tools. Laser Lipo is one option for patients seeking a wider range of medical options for the removal of body fat. Heat from the laser causes the fat to soften, resulting in smoother and flatter surfaces. The body’s immune system gradually removes the liquefied fat from the treated area.

Laser Lipo is highly functional and can be used to treat various areas of the body. While the laser helps to soften the unwanted fatty areas, the heat of the laser helps to tone the skin around the removal area, which can tighten the skin to give a satisfactory finish. Laser Lipo is generally used in conjunction with regular liposuction and is not meant to replace liposuction as a procedure; it is generally meant to work in harmony with other adiposity elimination (fat removal) techniques. The use of lasers to assist in the breaking down of body fat is one way that traditional liposuction has transformed into a minimally invasive procedure. Thus, Laser Lipo has transformed into a minimally invasive procedure. Thus, Laser Lipo requires less downtime, less time spent in the medical office, less discomfort, and an overall easier way to remove fat from areas of the body.


Which areas is Laser Lipo useful for?

Areas in which Laser Lipo can offer successful fat removal are:

  • Face (including chin and cheek areas)

  • Neck (such as with double chins)

  • Back side of arms

  • Abdomen

  • Back

  • Both the inner and outer areas of thighs

  • Hips

  • Buttocks

  • Knees

  • Ankles



Is the Fat Removal Permanent?


The particular fat cells removed will not recur, but the body can always regenerate fat if a proper diet and exercise routine are not implemented. To maintain a healthy weight and appearance, a regular fitness routine combined with a healthy diet are crucial, general weight gain is obviously still possible even after treatment.

Laser Lipo helps to remove fat in areas that are difficult to reach through diet and exercise. This means that the fat removed may or may not recur depending on the patient’s lifestyle and maintenance of their body shape.
