The Zerona® laser is the only completely safe and effective non-invasive treatment for body slimming on the market today.
The Zerona® treatment was proven effective in a double-blind clinical trial on the waist, hips and thighs where localized fat deposits exist that are resistant to diet and exercise.
with the Zerona® treatment and by following the recommended guidelines for success, we saw an average loss of 3.64 inches reported in our clinical trial on the waist, hips, and thighs.
In as few as six treatments, you can eliminate 2-4” of unwanted fat, for a slimmer, more youthful you. Of course, more treatments can result in even greater fat loss.
Even people who are not overweight can lose inches.
Our patients who wish to lose weight in addition to inches typically lose 6” AND 10-15 lbs in JUST 3 WEEKS!
The Verju system has been proven to not only minimize cellulite but also reduce the circumference of the thighs, while tightening skin as well. During its trial phases, recipients were measured before and after Verju Laser treatments, with a significant decrease in thigh circumference.
ALL THE ABOVE INFORMATION IS STRAIGHT FROM THE CLINICS WEBSITE

I bought the living social coupon in Janauary 2015 for laser liposuction in hopes of losing fat off my thighs, I need about 2 inches from each thigh. I bought this advertised as laser liposuction - non invasive, no downtime to remove fat and lose inches. I have always had issues with clothes fitting in my thighs and that is the first place I gain weight. When filling out the health questionnaire, at the top it asked about area to work on, I wrote thighs. I did not realize purchasing a laser liposuction package for fat loss, I needed to specify that again in my goals, I just wrote the body part I wanted this laser liposuction concentrated on.
Using my 2 week $100 coupon, i lost no inches and told the doctor. He said I should have been on the green instead of the red laser. So I bought a 3 month package, since I believed in the science and he also said we would also my autoimmune and thyroid issue. I had lab work done. I am a well controlled type 1 diabetic on an insulin pump. Never before this clinic, has there been any indications for me having a thyroid issue and since I have seen my endocrinologist who still does not think I have a thyroid issue, nor do I have any symptoms. My "thyroid issue" was not addressed until the end of April, after I complained multiple times. Doctor told me the Thyroxal supplement was special order, yet when I ordered it online I received it within 3 days. We reviewed my lab results in mid February, so losing those 2 months of not being on the Thyroxal supplement I believe could have increased my results. We never really discussed the Thyroxal, dosage or length of time I should take it or results expected. This is very disappointing and does not go along with the doctor saying he is treating medical conditions, considering we never discussed these items. My autoimmune issue was never mentioned again after reviewing the labwork, and has not been specifically addressed, unless it does not require any special supplements or treatments. Doctor did lead me to believe when we were reviewing my lab results that if we did not address the autoimmune issue, I would have major problems in the future. Not sure what that means, but it was never mentioned again.
I received a notebook with information when I first signed up, and was told to bring the notebook with me to each appointment, which I did. The notebook was never mentioned again, referenced or anything added to it. It would have been nice to have been told at the start of the treatments this notebook was for me to document my treatments, not for the staff to add to.
I did have a treatment with the assistant doctor one time. She asked specific questions about what I was looking for and where, and for the first time the laser was concentrated on my inner thighs, with the therapy setting. I was very excited about that, but that was the one and only time I met with her and never got that specific treatment again.
I did complain I was not seeing results, and kept being told soon and I believed it until 6 weeks of 3x a week treatments and 4 weeks of 2x a week treatments, I still had not lost any inches in my thighs. I weigh and measure myself daily. When I was finally able to meet with the doctor, it took 3 scheduled sessions to get to meet, 2 of which we were not able to meet due to his schedule, I am still unsure why. I rearranged my work schedule to come earlier in the day so I could meet with him. I understand his time is valuable but mine is also and missing work to meet with doctor earlier in the day is not convenient to me. When we finally met, doctor told me he did not expect me to loose inches! Never did he tell me the laser treatments for fat and inch reduction would not work on me! Doctor told me at our consultation in June 2015, so 6 months after treatments start, that I had incorrect/unrealistic expectations! According to all the material I have read on the clinic website, see quotes above taken directly off the clinic website. I also researched reviews over the internet for the zerona, my expected results were not out of line. As a doctor and scientist who said he produced the research for the FDA approval of these lasers, to have a patient who does not fit into the 80% group of great results should have been exciting for him to have a new challenge, to find a solution and be able to report that back to the laser company, but instead my complaints of lack of results were ignored. Now I have received all the visits in the package I purchased. Doctor did my measurements and found my complaining of no results was also reflected in his measurements. There was no change in my thigh circumference. When I started these treatments I was interested in fat loss, not cellulite, I really do not have much and not skin tightening, I really do not have saggy skin. I purchased the living social coupon for fat reduction, advertised as "laser liposuction". At this time I am beyond disappointed. I am out more than $4500, in addition to the time and gas. Prior to coming to the clinic, received a quote for prolipo for one body part for $3500. I also received a second quote for liposuction for 2 body parts, thighs and love handles for $3700. If I would had this done, I would have had fat loss results and would have been healed by now. In our meeting in June, doctor told me I looked great for someone over 50, but I am not over 50! He did not review my chart before we met. I work out, eat lots of protein and veggies, very little carbs, lift weights, spin class every week. I know what I was wearing for all my pictures. I remember doctor printing my before pictures and showing them and showing them to me before I left the day he took the photos the beginning of February. He showed my before as after, then got mad at me when I asked him very calmly to review the dates on my pictures. He refused!
I had multiple consults schedule with the doctor that have been ignored or rescheduled. Several sessions were scheduled the end of May, I rearranged my work schedule, but treatments were done instead of my meeting with the doctor, then I did not have time to stay after the treatments.
I had a consult scheduled with doctor for second week of June, the office called to rescheduled to later in the week, then that was rescheduled by the office to later in the month. i had a conference scheduled with doctor for the end of June, no call to reschedule, I show up and doctor was gone, and there was no offer of a reschedule. When we met in the beginning of June, he told me treatments were not complete until he said they were, yet I was not offered any further treatments, just cancellation of all the consultations scheduled with the doctor. In other words he had no idea how to make his laser work for me!
I understand there is no guarantee of results, but what I was expecting was not amazing results, 2 inches from each thigh is not excessive. Treatment of the thyroid issue at the start of my sessions should have been done, and followup to see what was happening was expected and never happened or mentioned. I guess that was not done because there was not really any thyroid issue. Addressing the autoimmune issue should have happened and been discussed and never was. The science behind this treatment seems logical, but if you are thin to start with, you will see no fat reduction, just a large wallet reduction!

Clinic staff was great, doctor says he has 100% success rate, but that is whatever he considers successful, not what clients agree is success! Doctor takes a story and spins it to what he needs it to be. I was very interested in the beginning to hear these stories, until I realized at the end he spins the story to reflect well or actually changes words. He attempted to put words in my mouth I never said and was amazed by this behavior!
