What Is Laser Lipo?

At Valley Aesthetics Institute, we offer proven, trusted body contouring solutions and advanced treatment devices to ensure your optimal results.

Laser lipolysis is an FDA-approved, non-invasive, non-surgical method of body sculpting. Like surgical liposuction, laser lipo addresses small fat deposits and removes fat cells permanently. With less discomfort, fewer risks, and a shorter recovery time, laser lipo also tightens skin.

During a laser lipo treatment, your provider will attach an applicator to the treatment area that penetrates the skin and heats fat cells underneath. The heat energy damages the cell membranes, damaging the fat cells so they begin to die. Your body will then absorb the dead cells and eliminate them as waste.

Laser lipo results take up to six weeks to reveal themselves. Many patients notice an improvement after a single treatment. However, some patients require multiple sessions to achieve optimal results, depending on their fat distribution. 

Laser lipo is effective at reducing fat in many areas, including:

  • Thighs
  • Upper arms
  • Abdomen 
  • Back

Since laser lipo is not a weight loss solution, you should be within 10 to 20 pounds of your ideal weight with a BMI under 30 before treatment. Non-surgical laser lipo delivers long-lasting results for people who avoid drastic weight gain and work hard to maintain their improved physiques through diet and exercise.

Am I a Good Candidate for Laser Lipo?

Candidates for laser lipo are generally healthy but want a non-surgical procedure to address small pockets of stubborn fat and improve their physiques. Arizona laser lipolysis treatment candidates should:

  • Be at a stable weight with a BMI under 30
  • Be at least 18 years old
  • Be a non-smoker or willing to quit all nicotine at least 48 hours before and after treatment
  • Not be pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Have a positive outlook and realistic goals for the procedure
  • Understand the risks and benefits

Preparing for Your Laser Lipo Procedure

Dr. Sanniec and his team will provide thorough instructions on getting ready for your treatment. While they will customize your non-surgical body contouring treatment specifically for you, here is some general information.

  • Quit smoking or using nicotine products for at least 48 hours before and after.
  • Do not take blood-thinning medications, anti-inflammatory drugs, or herbal supplements that may increase bleeding for three to six days.
  • Get in at least 30 minutes of walking or other exercise daily for at least a couple of weeks before treatment. Patients who get enough physical activity will recover more quickly.
  • For several weeks before laser lipo, eat a nutritious, high-protein diet with fewer processed ingredients and low sugar and carbs.
  • Stay well-hydrated before and after this procedure. Avoid alcohol and caffeine.
  • Maintain a stable weight.
  • Remove piercings or jewelry in the treatment area.

What to Expect on the Day of Your Laser Lipo Procedure

Come to your appointment with clean, moisturized, cosmetics-free skin. You’ll meet with one of our laser lipo experts to review the details of your plan and get last-minute answers to your questions. Typically, laser lipolysis procedures are quick. Our specialists will attach applicators to the treatment area. The applicators heat the fat beneath the skin, damaging the fat cell membranes. Most patients report minimal discomfort. Depending on the number of treatment areas, your laser lip procedure may take 30 to 60 minutes.

What to Expect After a Laser Lipo Treatment

You can resume your daily activities, including exercise, in one to two days following your laser lipolysis treatment. Redness, swelling, or soreness will gradually subside over the next few hours to days. We may recommend wearing a compression garment to reduce swelling and support your new contours as you heal. Follow all provided instructions to ensure optimal results.
