Aerolase - Does it tighten skin only or does it also kill fat?

Question

Is anyone familiar with aerolase? Does it tighten skin only or does it also kill fat?

Thank you for posting your questions. I am a huge fan of the Aerolase lasers. I personally only use the erbium laser because I like to have results that take only one treatment. Their other model is great, but requires several treatments. I haven’t found a laser with the same results, with such a good safety profile. I find patients experience improved skin texture, increased elasticity, diminished fine lines/ wrinkles, more even skin tone and dramatically reduced sun damage. 
I hope this helps!

Aerolase is a medical laser device that can be used for various skin treatments such as skin rejuvenation, hair removal, acne treatment, and vascular lesions. However, it is not designed specifically for fat reduction.

The laser technology used in Aerolase primarily targets the water content in the skin to stimulate collagen production, which can result in skin tightening and wrinkle reduction. While some patients may report mild contouring effects in certain areas of the body after Aerolase treatment, it is not considered a primary fat reduction technique.

If you are interested in fat reduction, you may want to consider other treatments such as liposuction, CoolSculpting, or SculpSure. It is important to consult with a qualified medical professional to discuss your options and determine the best treatment plan for your specific needs and goals.

I hope this helps,
best of luck !
