WORTH IT$1,200
My experience can maybe explain the mixed reviews on this board. I first bought a ”super deal” on Tuango (Canadian Groupon) last fall: 10 Zerona treatments for $199 in an aesthetic clinic in Montreal. Total waste of time and money (not even worth $20 a treatment), zero results and 10 hours listening to technicians trying to sell me everything in their clinic to get a commission. A chain of Zerona clinics does a lot of advertising in Quebec. I don’t know why but I decided to call them and they convinced me to give the technology a second chance, even if it was more expensive ($99 a treatment + membership). The experience was completely different. First thing I noticed was that the lasers were positioned in a totally different manner. They explained that Zerona won’t work if the lasers are not properly positioned or if the lasers don’t have enough energy. To make a long story short, I finally lost 9 inches after 12 treatments which was the number of sessions they told me to take and which I could afford. According to them, the average loss in their clinics is 8 inches. They also made me stand on a vibrating plate after each treatment to drain the fat. Based on my experience, my suggestion is to call a clinic before deciding to take this treatment and enquire about their expertise. This can save you a lot of money, frustration and loss of time.

what is a vibrating plate ? Thx!!

Hello, a vibrating plate is a sort of platform that moves from side to side. For your information, I found this on the web http://lymphaticvibration.com They make you stand on the Vmax trio at a low speed to evacuate the fat. You have a tingling feeling afterwards which is supposed to mean that my body expels toxins. It replaces a long walk which I know I wouldn’t have done anyway due to lack of time (I’m trying to convince myself that it’s the reason but it’s probably more laziness).

Would you mind telling me after how many treatments did you start seeing change. I just had my fourth today and dont see antying.

Hi there,
According to Zerona, after 6 treatments and 2 weeks, the majority of patients will realize between 3-9 inches of generalized slimming, rather than localized fat reduction in a specific spot.

The clinic I went takes your measurements every week but don't tell you the results. I too didn't feel any difference after the first four treatments. Strangely, I really felt the results once in a sudden, after 7-8 treatments. I most probably had some before but by seeing myself in the mirror every morning, It's harder to see. Hope it does you the same.

Would it be possible to list the association in Quebec, and if possible which clinic you used in Montreal. Thank you.
