Laser Lipolysis, also known as Laser Lipo, is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure designed to reduce stubborn fat and sculpt body contours with precision. At Minus, we use advanced laser technology to target and melt away unwanted fat deposits, giving you a slimmer, more defined appearance without the need for extensive surgery.
The procedure involves the use of a laser fiber that is inserted beneath the skin through a small incision. The laser energy selectively heats and breaks down fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body over time. The heat from the laser also stimulates collagen production, resulting in tighter, firmer skin in the treated area.
Benefits of Laser Lipolysis
- Precision Targeting: Effectively treats small, stubborn areas of fat.
- Skin Tightening: Promotes collagen production, resulting in smoother, firmer skin.
- Minimally Invasive: Requires only small incisions, leading to shorter recovery times and minimal scarring.
- Quick Recovery: Patients can usually return to normal activities within a few days.
Frequently Asked Questions
