I've been hearing a lot about i-lipo where 8 sessions over a period of 4 weeks is supposed to be equivalent to liposuction. I've seen it advertised heavily in the UK and now it's being offfered in NYC and Canada. I can't find any expert commentary or reviews from people who have had it. According to marketer Zonelife's description: "The i-Lipo uses a low level light laser to stimulate the body’s natural processes emptying stored fat contents from the fat cells"...

Answer: Does I-lipo work?
there have not been any scientific study or clinical study of large number of patients that show a significant benefit of I-liposuction over traditional liposuction.

Answer: ILipo vs. Surgical Liposuction
Structural change requires surgery. Dozens of "non-surgical", "non invasive" , laser, ultrasound, radio frequency & cryo devices are advertised & hyped year after year in their newer, "latest" fancy avatars (x, xUltra, xUltra Plus, xSuper) as liposuction alternatives. My take is, there are so many of them year after year, as all of them do precious little. At best, they help you to achieve "subtle" changes (always in the fine print).
I am not aware of any medical or scientific literature claiming that they achieve results even close to what is possible with surgical liposuction (SAL,PAL,VAL et. all). Secondly, I am not aware of a single clinic around where I practice which offers 8, sometimes12 sessions of external, non surgical lipolysis without a strict diet & exercise plan. Go figure.
