What is the Zerona Laser Treatment?

Great question. Zerona should not be confused with liposuction or laser liposuction. It does utilize low level laser light therapy, but is completely non-invasive. It has limited to no downtime and the therapy is applied over six 40 minute sessions over a 2 week period. It does have an effect, though mild, but may be something to look at for your problem areas.I hope this helps.

Zerona works. There are studies in our plastic surgery journals that document results of low level laser for fat reduction. I have been using the Zerona laser in my Palo Alto office since July and have been generally impressed. Many people have had great results. Zerona is completely painless and non-invasive. Liposuction and Smartlipo can remove more fat and can be minimally invasive but they are surgical procedures with some risk and recovery.
Zerona is an alternative to liposuction for those who want to completely avoid an invasive procedure and risk. I believe these type of treatments are the direction that plastic surgery is going in the 21st century.

Zerona has proven to be a worthwhile addition to what plastic surgeons can offer their patients. I agree with Dr. Kenkel's posting. Zerona is a good way for patients to lose fat without surgery, without downtime and without pain. It does not replace liposuction or other body contouring procedures but does offer an option for those who prefer to avoid invasive procedures.
Zerona works well for three types of patients. The first being a patient that is just beginning to get back into shape. Using the Zerona treatment will maximize the amount of fat lost and accelerate the road to the end results of your efforts. Second would be those patients that never want to have any kind of surgery but would like to try something to reduce fat and inches. Lastly, there are some patients that would consider surgery but want to try everything they can before taking that plunge.
The most important thing is that it really does work. Remember that Zerona is intended to lose inches. While you will lose fat which causes the loss of inches, the loss of fat is proportional throughout an area. That is, your shape stays basically the same but your size goes down. I have treated many patients with this procedure and can tell you that every single one has lost something. My results range from about 2 inches up to over 11 inches, all the result of 2 weeks of treatments in total.
There may be doctors that don't believe in the technology, but I would bet they have never used it themselves, The proof is in the pudding, or the lost inches,
I hope this info helps!
