How Effective is Tickle Lipo? having tickle lipo on upper/lower abs, outer thighs and arms? is it as effective as laser?

A: Tickle Lipo has a definite role IMO (but it's not magic)

I'll disagree with some of the prior comments. I like the Tickle Lipo platform, but it's no magic wand. It's best thought of as a power assisted liposuction (PAL) with some low frequency ultrasound effect. It's very efficent for fat removal and hurts noticably less then traditional in my assessment. I think the actual results are no significantly different then traditional

Best Treatment for Fat Ankles That Will Give Me a Better Shape? What are my option for fat ankles? i'm not overweight but my lower legs are shapeless, esp.my ankles. Is lipo available for me? if so, how much does it cost? Thanks!

A: Solution to fat ankles

Removing excess fat from the ankles with liposuction is not ideal or frankly a good idea, period. The way our practice approaches this common issue is with Mesotherapy or Lipodissolve. Usually 3 treatments done every 4 weeks will improve this area.
