Do the Home Lipo Ultra Sonic Cavitation Machines Work? They Claim Non Invasive and Safe for All Skin Types.

Question

Martin Jugenburg, MD · Answer

No downtime?  No pain?  No bruising?  No Scars?  Not a lot of Money?  Sure... just don't expect any positive results.

There are millions of machines, diets, and supplements that claim to do it all easily, naturally, without the hassle of a cosmetic surgery.  And the day they actually work is the day Plastic Surgeons go out of business.  But until you see Plastics Surgeons still performing liposuction, you can rest assured all these machines, pills, and diets are just gimmicks.

Sincerely,

Martin Jugenburg, MD, FRCSC

Safe and ineffective.  The only thing that's real is the money you're out.  Don't waste your time or money.

Misbah Khan MD, FAAD, FACMS · Answer

absolutely safe and completely ineffective! that is WHY it is available for at home use. beofre you spend your money and time on this, I would highly recommend to explore all other options and seek consultation from a plastic/cosmetic surgeon who does liposuction and they will tell you whats the best option for you

Richard Baxter, MD · Answer

In order for a device to be sold for home use rather than under the supervision of a physician, it has to be made very low-powered in order to be safe. At those levels it is highly unlikely that there would be any real benefit. Go for Liposonix in a physician's office - it's FDA approved for permanent fat reduction.

Vincent N. Zubowicz, MD · Answer

Don't waste your money. Ultrasound has to be delivered through the skin and to the fat to be effective. At the level of the fat, the ultrasonic energy is converted to heat to "cook" the fat. The problem with home liposuction is that there is no way to bypass the skin as it converts ultrasonic energy to heat.

The only advantage of those machines goes to the seller. The user has little if any benefit. Save your money.
