Does it hurt to get Zerona laser lipo? It seems to me the laser would burn if it is literally melting fat inside you. Do you need anesthesia for Zerona treatment?

Answer: Zerona is Painless Hi Cartman, Zerona laser is absolutely pain free (except for the pocket book). Patients just lay still for 20 minutes on their back, then 20 minutes on the other side, every other day, 3 days a week for 2 weeks. The laser wavelength travels through the skin and is attracted to fat cells. Whether this is "too good to be true" technology is still to be determined over the long term in terms of patient satisfaction. Good luck and be well. Say hello to our friends in South Park. Dr. P

Answer: Not Painful at All
The Zerona treatment is a completely painless cold laser: I generally have my patients treated in a dark room with music playing. Many say it is the most relaxing 40 minutes of their day. The only sensation some patients report is an "awareness" of something on the skin, perhaps a slight tingling, never pain. The treatments are usually every other day for a series of 6, 9 or 12 treatments. The laser treats the targeted body area for 20 minutes on the front and 20 minutes on the back. With adherence to the laser protocol, patients are getting excellent results. Last week we had one patient lose cumulatively 14 inches from the thighs, hips and waist.
