Laser Liposculpture

The future of Liposuction.
Erchonia Low-Level Laser Treatment now an important part of liposuction.

Basically, when painless, non-invasive Erchonia laser treatment is administered just prior to liposuction, the removal of fatty tissue is made significantly easier and quicker. There is less postoperative pain and bruising. Consequently, recovery is accelerated. The Erchonia laser treatment is effective because it actually emulsifies fatty tissues, making the removal processes more efficient.

The Only Low-Level Laser FDA-Approved for use During Liposuction

Recent scientific studies have shown that the Erchonia low-level laser can have an extremely positive impact when used during liposuction. These studies served as the basis for the FDA market clearance of the Erchonia laser. Low-level laser treatment is rapidly becoming an important resource for the cosmetic surgeon.

Erchonia Study Results

The Erchonia Clinical Trial showed that patients had less post-op pain immediately following surgery and during the first week when compared to the placebo laser. The Erchonia patients used less pain medications during the first 2 weeks post operatively. More fat was extracted per minute using the Erchonia laser as compared to the placebo which translated into less time in the operating room. Since Erchonia Laser Assisted Liposuction is a low level or cold process there is no risk of burning the tissue which is a potential side effect when using "Ultrasound Assisted liposuction". No side effects or seromas were reported in the clinical trial.

The Science of Healing with Erchonia's Low-level Laser Treatment

There are high-power lasers, then there is Erchonia's low-level laser. High-power lasers generate enough heat or thermal output to destroy tissue. On the other hand, the Erchonia laser produces a low-level (or cold) output that has no thermal effect on the body's tissue. Instead, the Erchonia laser serves to stimulate biological function. Low level laser therapy has been shown to treat many conditions such as acute and chronic pain - without negative side effects. Numerous documented post-operative benefits are establishing the Erchonia laser as the future of liposuction.

Why should I consider Liposuction Surgery?

Some individuals have a great deal of difficulty achieving the look they desire through diet and exercise. In spite of their continued efforts, fat simply won't go away in certain areas. The answer may be liposuction. Liposuction is not an alternative to the healthful habits that each individual should strive to nurture. However, along with a healthy lifestyle, it can make you look and feel better.

How does Liposuction work to contour and shape the body?

Liposuction surgery removes unwanted fat cell deposits in specific, or localized areas of the body. The surgery is not specified as weight-reduction procedure, rather it is used to contour and "tone up" specific areas of the body where fat deposits are a cosmetic concern. Fat is removed through the use of a suction tube that is inserted through a tiny incision made in an inconspicuous area on the skin. Fat cells are extracted through the tube with a high pressure vacum. The surgery turns bulging areas into more pleasing contours. Your new figure will be similar to what you would expect if you could lose an equal amount of localized fat through diet and exercise.

What will the healing process be like after surgery?

After the liposuction procedure, patients are instructed to go home and rest for a few hours, then gradually increase activity. Patients are normally able to resume normal activities within 2 to 5 days. The actual treatment and the healing process that follows can be positively influenced by the use of the FDA-approved low-level laser treatment prior to surgery.
