How It Works: Precision and Technology

Laser lipolysis uses applicators that are placed flat on the skin over the desired treatment area, such as the abdomen, flanks (“love handles”), thighs, or under the chin. Here is a step-by-step breakdown of the process:

1. Targeted Energy Delivery:The device emits a specific wavelength of laser energy, typically around 1060 nanometers. This wavelength is highly absorbed by adipose (fat) tissue but not by the overlying skin.
2. Heating the Fat Cells:The laser energy passes harmlessly through the skin and heats the underlying fat cells to a temperature between 42°C and 47°C (107.6°F and 116.6°F). This heat is enough to disrupt the structural integrity of the fat cells, effectively damaging them beyond repair.
3. Preserving Surrounding Tissue:This is where precision comes in. The technology is designed to keep the skin’s surface cool and comfortable while the energy heats the fat layer below. This ensures that surrounding tissues like skin, nerves, and muscles are not affected.
4. Natural Elimination:Over the next 6 to 12 weeks, the body’s lymphatic system, which is part of your immune system, identifies these damaged fat cells as waste. It naturally collects and processes them, permanently removing them from your body.

A well-known brand that uses this technology isSculpSure. The treatment is designed for comfort, with most patients reporting a deep warmth or tingling sensation that cycles on and off during the typical 25-minute session.
