would just one treatment be a waste of money or would results be seen with just one? I am not overweight, I just cannot get rid of my love-handles despite diet and exerise.
Answer: Laser liposuction Laser liposuction is a one time procedure. It is usually to treatment of choice for love handle fat. There are other laser fat treatments such as Zerona which aren't liposuction or a surgical procedure. These treatments require more than one application and in my opinion have questionable effectiveness.Aloha,Shim Ching, MD

Answer: Love handle results Thank you for your question. Generally, great results can be observed following one treatment; however, the best way to give true advice and expectations for results would be an in-person consulation with an experienced provider, specifically trained in aesthetic body contouring. Best wishes, Dr. David Amron

Answer: Laser Liposuction
I would need to know what “Laser Fat removal” session you are referring to. We expect results after one (1) session in a particular area. Revisiting the area later is not needed if the job was done correctly. You should be visiting a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for a consult and consider treatment with Vaser and laser.

Answer: Liposuction is a one time procedure usually
Although 10% may need additional improvement within the same area that underwent liposuction, most patients find that the area treated by liposuction is adequate and no further surgery is needed. Laser-assisted liposuction does not decrease the percent of patients needing secondary treatments, however, and in fact, depending on the skill of the provider, the heat generated from the laser could increase the risk of irregularities in the surface which might involve corrective procedures.

Answer: It depends on the procedure you are doing. Liposuction is typically one time, others not.
SmartLipo and tumescent liposuction are a one time procedure usually. Whereas redos are possible, they are not typically necessary. Now, on the other hand, any other procedure that claims to rid you of fat that isn't invasive, whether it is Zeltiq, Zerona, Lipodissolve, etc, is not likely to be effective in this area, whether it is one procedure or many.
There is a reason that liposuction has a stellar rating - it actually gets the fat out! When combined with SmartLipo and the tumescent technique, this is a fantastic combination and results are great.
