Laser Lipo Procedure Makes its UK Debut

United Kingdom of Great Britain & N. Ireland (Press Release) February 4, 2008 -- Trials of the latest non-invasive slimming, body contouring treatment have just been completed at “Heath House Clinic”, a leading health and cosmetic clinic based in Kent (www.laserlipo-bcs.com). The new treatment is now available to the public for the very first time in the UK. However world wide these procedures are available in Canada, Japan, Korea and other countries during 2008.

The procedure is designed to reduce levels of unwanted fat using the Lapex Body Contouring System (BCS) which is quick, safe, pain-free and genuinely non-invasive.

Most people are familiar with liposuction and some with the newer ‘Smart Lipo’ procedure. Laser Lipo however has advantages over these as there is no need for either local or general anaesthetics.

A Laser Lipo procedure can be completed in just 40 minutes and positive results can be seen INSTANTLY after just one treatment. To secure the best results a course of 8 treatments is normally required at a cost of just £1,000.

The laser-based system has emerged out of sports injury treatment where for the past decade or so physiotherapists have been using Cold Red laser to assist the body’s healing process and reduce swelling and inflammation. The Class 3B Cold red lasers do penetrate the skin but only to a depth of a maximum of 13mm. This safeguards against any side effects or even potential damage to organs and blood vessels. A key benefit of Laser Lipo is that the process does not remove fat cells as such, and thus there is no risk of new fat being stored in other, perhaps more dangerous areas around the body.

So how does it work? It’s a simple 5-step process.

- After completing the necessary paperwork and having the offending areas being measured
- Two large Diode laser paddles are placed on the fatty areas
- Two smaller Probe lasers are placed over lymphatic glands and held in place by your underwear
- The Laser Lipo BCS will then be switched on for 10 minutes, relocated and turned on for another 10 minutes and repeated again
- The treated area will be measured to assess inch loss achieved. Depending on the client results are expected to be between 0.5 and 3 inches
- This is rounded off by a 10-minute stint on a vibration plate machine to help break down the fat cells.

The breaking down of the fat cells starts when the laser penetrates the skin and makes contact. Pores form on the cells causing them to ‘sweat’. The water, Glycerol and free fatty acids emerge from the cells and then occupy the space beneath the fatty layer in the skin. The fat cells reduce in size and the lymphatic system then removes the fatty liquids through the venous system, where they are processed in the same way as fatty foods that are digested.

The Laser Lipo procedure does not harm the body in any way and will still maintain its ability to store fat in the areas where the work has been carried out. This is an important health factor as it prevents the fat being stored in different parts such as around the heart or other vital organs.
