What is Laser Lipo?

Laser lipo, also known as low level laser therapy (LLLT) or the “lunchtime lipo”, is a totally non-invasive body contouring treatment designed to target fat and gain inch-loss.

LLLT is a treatment used to target specific problem areas of fat to reduce the fat cells and let the body’s natural immune system take them away.  It can be used for the stomach, thighs, knees, “love handles”, chin, flanks and under bra area.

There are no needles, no anaesthetic, no downtime and no risk.

How does it work?

LLLT emits low levels of laser energy at two different wavelengths, 940nm and 650nm, the first goes deep into the dermis of the skin and the second targets the epidermis of the skin.  In the dermis the fat cells are targeted, breaking down the triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol.  These are then taken away by the lymphatic draining system.  This process only targets the fat cells and therefore does not affect the surround structures such as the skin or blood vessels. Epidermis of the skin is stimulated simultaneously by the other laser which increases circulation and promotes metabolism helping the body contouring process.

Laser lipo (LLLT) is carried out by attaching laser lipo pads to your body, the pads clip together so that the optimal number of pads can be attached to the size of the area being treated. Several problem areas can be treated in the same treatment session, making it quicker and easier.

What will I experience during the treatment?

The treatment is very relaxing, in fact many clients fall asleep. You will feel a pleasant, warm sensation, with the two wavelengths working in unison.  Each treatment area takes 25-30 minutes.

How long will it be before I see results?

Optimal effects are achieved by having 2 sessions per week for 4 weeks.  The results will take up to 12 weeks to see the full results and the treatment relies on your own bodily processes, however, you should see some results after the first few treatments.

Other considerations?

Naturally, you need to maintain a healthy regime of what you put into your body and the exercise that you do.  There is no point spending money to bust that fat and then having pigging out on fattening foods!
