For localized fat deposits, Nd:YAG laser energy is delivered beneath the skin through a very thin fiber and cannula; the excess fat layer is liquefied and the contour improves. Typical areas are the under-chin area (double chin), underarms, upper arms and inner knees.
Laser energy is delivered to the fat tissue under the skin through a thin fiber. The energy acts on fat cells and liquefies the fat, which is removed through a thin cannula or cleared by the body. The heat generated beneath the skin may also contribute to a skin-tightening effect.
This is not a weight-loss method; it targets limited fat deposits in specific areas rather than body weight. For large amounts of fat and marked sagging, liposuction or surgical methods may be more suitable.
The procedure is usually done in the clinic under local anesthesia (tumescent technique).
People with a limited fat deposit beneath the chin.
Small, stubborn deposits such as the underarm, upper arm and inner knee.
Those with adequate skin elasticity and mild-to-moderate deposits.
Fat amount, skin elasticity and expectations are assessed, and suitability for laser lipolysis is determined.
The area is numbed and the fat tissue is treated through a small entry point with a thin cannula and laser fiber. Duration varies by area.
Temporary swelling, tenderness, redness and bruising can occur. Compression may be advised for a period; your doctor will give the details.
The contour becomes clearer as swelling subsides; the final result can take weeks.
The number of fat cells in the treated area is reduced, but weight gain can cause fat to accumulate again in the remaining cells.
Both target fat tissue; laser lipolysis is preferred for smaller, limited areas. Which is suitable is decided at the examination.
