Cool Lipo, laser assisted liposuction, is a revolutionary method for fat removal. This laser-based procedure breaks up fat and removes fat cells in areas such as under the chin, neck, arms, inner and outer thighs, knees, abdomen, love handles or in any other area that traditional liposuction targets.
Cool Lipo is unlike other forms of laser lipo in that it has 2 different modes… one for tightening and one for lipo. You can choose to target areas without fat that need tightening or combine your treatment with lipo to both remove fat and tighten skin. Cool Lipo uses a 1320 wavelength which is safe for all skin colors. This laser energy disrupts and liquefies the fat which is ten removed by syringe or micro-cannula, a wand like apparatus which contains the laser fiber. The unique wavelength of Cool Lipo directly contracts collagen and tightens the skin from the inside out, an effect not seen with traditional liposuction.
Also known as the “lunchtime lipo”, Cool Lipo is easily performed in-office, generally in less than an hour. No anesthesia is needed, other than the tumescent, which is infused into the area being treated. Recovery time is much shorter than with traditional liposuction. No stitches are used because the tube is so small, a compression garment is worn for 48 hours to a week (depending on the procedure area). You will be able to return to work or normal activities a few hours after the procedure, experiencing very little, if any, bruising or swelling.
Cellulite Reduction with Laser Lipo
A frequently asked question about laser lipo is will it also eliminate cellulite. While there is no single method to eliminate cellulite, Dr. Accetta had developed an innovative technique or a cellulite treatment which combines liposculpture with a breaking down of connective tissue. This “C Lift”, as he calls it reduces cellulite and decreasing future dimpling.
