FAQ’s
HOW DOES IT WORK?
When calories exceed demand, the extra calories are stored as fat. Fat contents are then stored as semi-liquid inclusion in the cytosol of each cell. The i-Lipo emits low levels of laser energy, the fat cell membrane are disturbed releasing intra-cellular fat. This causes the cell to lose its round shape by changing the permeability of the cell membrane. This does not affect the neighboring structure such as skin, blood vessels and peripheral nerves.
Triglycerides spill out from the broken cell membranes and are released into the interstitial space where they are slowly transported through the body’s natural metabolic functions, with no adverse physiological effects and are used by the body as an energy source.
Light exercise post treatment can accelerate the breakdown and removal of fat from the area.

Does it hurt?
The i-lipo treatment is an extremely comfortable treatment; the only sensation felt from the treatment pads is slight warmth.
|
|
How many treatments will I need?
To see maximum results a course of 12 treatments is recommended, per body area. These treatments should be taken twice per week at regular intervals.
|
|
Which areas of the body can be treated?
The i-lipo course can be performed on calfs, knees, thigh, buttocks, stomach, arms and chin. The i-lipo system is currently the only system that has 4 treatment pads and is able to treat 2 small areas at once or give you a quicker treatment time. You will be in the clinic for approximately 30-45 minutes.
|
|
When would I see the results?
Results can be seen immediately after treatment. Typically a 2-4cm loss in abdomen circumference can be achieved with every treatment.
What inch loss could I achieve from this treatment?
This will vary from person to person depending on your size, but the results from the treatment will be greatly improved by your commitment to the treatment. A healthy diet needs to be adhered to and an exercise program is important to follow to enable the released fat to be used up as energy. This should be done within 24hrs of your i-lipo treatment.
|
|
How long will the results last?
Booster treatments are not necessarily needed with the i-lipo, as long as your weight, diet and exercise is maintained. One treatment performed now and again is a good incentive to keep you in control.
|
|
Is it safe?
i-lipo is a low level laser diode system and therefore is painless and completely safe. It can be used on all skin types and body areas and you can return to normal activity immediately after treatment.
|
|
Has the treatment been clinically proven?
Independent clinical studies have shown i-lipo to be, in some cases, comparable to results achieved by liposuction. Ultrasound imagery shows up to 30% reduction in the fat layer depth after just one treatment. Additional treatments improve results further. Results can be seen immediately after each treatment as the fat cell contents are released. Light exercise post treatment can accelerate the removal of the released fat.

targeted fat reduction
I-Lipo can target fat reduction in specific problem area. By positioning the laser pads on the target area such as chin, upper arms, abdomen or thighs fat can be broken down and removed specifically from that area. This is a big advantage over diet and exercise which can reduce overall body fat but not shape individual areas.
