Laser Lipo

Laser lipo, short for laser lipolysis, is a cosmetic procedure designed to reduce localized fat deposits using laser technology. Unlike traditional liposuction, which physically removes fat through suction, laser lipo uses laser energy to liquefy fat cells beneath the skin. A small probe containing the laser is inserted through a tiny incision, and the heat from the laser breaks down the fat, which is either naturally flushed out by the body or gently suctioned away.

In addition to targeting fat, the heat from the laser also stimulates collagen production, which can result in tighter, smoother skin in the treated areas. This added benefit makes laser lipo a popular choice for people who want both fat reduction and improved skin tone. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, thighs, arms, chin, and flanks—places where fat can be difficult to eliminate through diet and exercise alone.

Laser lipo is considered minimally invasive, meaning it typically involves less downtime, bruising, and discomfort compared to traditional liposuction. It is usually performed under local anesthesia, and most patients can return to normal activities within a few days. While laser lipo can effectively contour the body, it is not a weight loss solution and is best suited for individuals who are near their ideal weight but struggle with stubborn fat pockets.
