A lot of people have been talking about the Zerona laser, one of the latest innovations in laser technology used in cosmetic treatments. The Zerona laser is a relatively new technique that was only introduced in the market last 2008. Developed by Erchonia, one of the leaders in laser technology used in healthcare and wellness industries, Zerona is a new, non-invasive body-sculpting laser that works by stimulating the fat cells in the body. This causes the fat cells to burst, eliminating the fat stored inside. The fat is then released from the body through the lymphatic system during the normal course of detoxification. The whole treatment takes about six visits, with each session lasting forty minutes. It is clinically proven to be effective in reducing a patient’s waist, hips, and thighs by a couple of inches.
Initial tests were conducted to analyze the procedure’s effectiveness. It was also presented to the American Society of Lasers in Medicine and Surgery in 2008, and it received FDA market clearance for usage in the United States. In May 2009, it was featured in Cosmetics Surgery Times in a controlled study. The study revealed that the Zerona laser was proven to reduce body fat and the size of waist, hips, and thighs by an average of four inches.
This procedure is a slimming technique that is safe because it is painless during and after the procedure and it has no downtime. It is a convenient means to contour one’s body as it doesn’t need incision or marks from the treatment, doesn’t require wearing compression garments, and has no reported side effects. Thus, this technique, unlike other traditional procedures like liposuction, allows the treated patient to function normally throughout his or her daily regimen without the hassle of experiencing discomforts such as pain from surgery, wounds, or garments.
