Laser Lipolysis Procedure
Non-surgical procedure that uses laser energy to break down fat cells, improve skin elasticity, and contour the body.
Key benefits of Laser Lipolysis Procedure
- Non-invasive fat reduction without the need for surgery.
- Tightens skin and stimulates collagen production.
- Contours the body, helping to sculpt and redefine areas of concern.
- Minimal downtime and recovery, with most people returning to normal activities immediately.
How does Laser Lipolysis Procedure work?
Fotona Laser Lipolysis works using two different laser wavelengths that target fat cells and skin:
Nd:YAG Laser (Deep Tissue Heating):
The Nd:YAG laser penetrates deep into the skin, where it heats the fat cells and stimulates the collagen and elastin production.The heat from the laser causes fat cells to break down and shrink. Over time, the body metabolizes these broken-down fat cells, reducing the amount of fat in the treated area.The deep heating also triggers skin tightening, improving skin elasticity and firmness in the treated area.
Er:YAG Laser (Surface and Skin Remodeling):
The Er:YAG laser targets the surface of the skin and stimulates collagen remodeling, improving the skin’s texture and appearance.This helps to tighten the skin after the fat reduction process, ensuring a smoother and more sculpted look.
Process:
The laser energy is delivered to the target areas using a handpiece. The process is gentle and non-invasive, with minimal discomfort. Fat cells are broken down and gradually eliminated by the body, while the skin becomes firmer and smoother due to the collagen stimulation.
How to prepare for a Laser Lipolysis procedure?
1–2 Weeks Before:
- Avoid sun exposure and use high-SPF sunscreen daily to prevent any skin damage or sensitivity.
- Hydrate your skin by drinking plenty of water and using moisturizers to keep your skin healthy.
- Stop using any strong exfoliants, retinoids, or other active skincare ingredients that might increase sensitivity.
- If you have active skin infections or conditions in the area to be treated, let your provider know, as treatment may need to be postponed.
- Avoid alcohol and caffeine in the 24 hours leading up to the procedure to reduce skin sensitivity.
24–48 Hours Before:
- Drink plenty of water to ensure optimal hydration of your skin and body.
- Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin.
- Avoid using any lotions, oils, or products that may interfere with the laser energy.

- Fat Reduction: The fat reduction process will take several weeks as the body gradually metabolizes the broken-down fat cells.
