Does Lipo-Light really work?

Question

I keep seeing advertisements for lipo light offered. Does this really work? I'm looking to get rid of a small tummy pooch and some small love handles that won't seem to go away. Thanks!

Thomas Wright, MD · Answer

Traditional forms of liposuction are unparalleled in terms of results. Liposuction is efficient and low-risk, has a short recovery time, involves minimal scarring and offers predictable results. On the other hand, lipo-light is not backed up by any studies and doesn’t lead to lasting fat reduction. While lipo-light might work, it’s unlikely you’ll see a significant difference before and after the procedure.

Hello, and thank you for your question. 
I perform laser Liposuction in my office. It requires skills, physical stamina from the doctor while suctioning, plus the delivery of high laser energy and temperatures under the skin. In your case in order to remove a “tummy pouch” and “love handles” with satisfactory results you will need more than Lipo light.
Good luck,

Dr. Popescu

The most effective way to make a change in problems areas such as love handles and tummy pouch is liposculpting.  In other words, you have to remove the fat.  How the fat is removed dictates the level of results.  Come visit for a consult or visit our website and schedule an email consultation to discuss your options.

Lipo Light lacks body shaping, which areas like the love handles and abdomen need. For best results for these areas, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Liposuction is the only really effective way to improve your waist line. and is easy to undergo under tum.local.  There are so many gimmicky fat treatments out there that offer temporary results but mainly don't do anything significant or long lasting.,
