Laser lipolysis is a non-invasive hardware procedure for body correction.
Laser lipolysis – Price in our clinics
Not every person is able to go to extreme lengths for the sake of a slim figure. surgical intervention. Therefore, scientists have created laser lipolysis - an alternative to liposuction. During the procedure, the laser only affects fat cells- adipocytes, without affecting the skin.
At the Novoklinik Center on Proletarskaya we use the Lipobelt device.
Indications for laser lipolysis
Zones for correction:
- face (double chin, cheeks);
- full hands(shoulders, forearms);
- stomach;
- waist;
- buttocks;
- inner and outer thighs;
- legs (calves, shins, knees).
The procedure is suitable if
- you have small fat deposits,
- you want instant results,
- you don't want to injure your skin,
- you don't have time for rehabilitation.
Laser lipolysis is not performed on obese people, since obesity is a chronic metabolic disease.

Laser lipolysis (1 zone)
How does the procedure work?
The method is a low-intensity laser exposure on fat cells, resulting in a decrease in the size of fat cells. The fat cell is not destroyed! Only excess fat is removed from it - through the pores and naturally.
What awaits you at a laser lipolysis session?
- Consultation with a doctor, selection of areas for treatment, familiarization with contraindications.
- Lipolysis procedure using the Lipobelt device.
- Prescribing a course, recommending additional procedures that improve the effect after laser lipolysis.
Weight loss with laser lipolysis is as close to natural as possible, so the body does not experience stress.
Laser lipolysis of the abdomen
Let's take a closer look at the problem area itself female body- stomach.
Belly fat is difficult to lose through exercise and diet. 
There is a misconception that if you pump up your abs, your belly fat will gradually go away. After this physical exercise, you will pump up your abdominal muscles, but they will remain under the fat folds.
We hasten to warn you that laser liposuction of the abdomen and abdominal lipolysis are not synonymous.
The fact is that abdominal lipolysis is a complement to non-surgical laser liposuction, in case the latter fails to cope with problem areas.
Contraindications to the procedure
Do not forget to consult your doctor individually, as laser lipolysis has contraindications. These include:
- varicose veins,
- oncological diseases,
- hemophilia,
- autoimmune diseases,
- diabetes,
- kidney diseases.
Cosmetic procedures are contraindicated during pregnancy and lactation.
non-invasive laser technique for getting rid of local fat deposits
A person who has been involved in weight loss or body shaping at least once in his life knows well that losing weight evenly is very difficult. Many of us have problem areas where we want to get rid of excess fat as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, it is these “fat traps” that stay with us for as long as possible. Meanwhile, in the place where you want to leave or even add volume, the fat goes away first. Laser lipolysis cannot be considered an alternative healthy eating or fitness, but it helps to get rid of fat deposits in problem areas of the body that are difficult to respond to traditional fat removal methods.
In order for weight loss to occur evenly, and figure correction to be easy with visible results from the first procedure, we present innovative methodology fat breakdown
Laser lipolysis (laser liposuction) is a non-invasive technique for breaking down fats into components fatty acids under the influence of a low-frequency laser with a wavelength of 650 nm.
Advantages of the Laser lipolysis procedure:
Non-invasive and painless: laser radiation penetrates the tissues of the body absolutely painlessly, the procedure does not require punctures of the skin or insertion of needles into adipose tissue; Laser treatment is performed by applying special attachments to the surface of the skin.
Selective heating of adipose tissue: surrounding tissues are practically not heated, which avoids complications such as burns.
Individual approach - ability to adjust pulse power: depending on age, gender, location of fat traps, the specialist selects a certain power in order to optimally provide energy for the process of “emptying” the fat cell.
Acceleration of biochemical reactions under the influence of light and heat: the permeability of the cell membrane of the fat cell increases, which promotes the removal of broken down fatty acids from it and the entry of useful, active components.
The procedure takes a maximum of 20 minutes.
Absence negative consequences in the area of laser exposure.
Procedure duration 20 minutes
During one procedure, it is possible to apply from 4 to 6 attachments at a time, depending on the size of local fat deposits.
Indications for the laser lipolysis procedure:
- Local fat deposits in the area:
abdomen, lateral surfaces of the body;
thighs, outer, inner parts;
double chin;
Methodology for the laser lipolysis procedure
Stage I:
A cosmetologist examines the body to identify “problem” areas. Body circumference is measured, and the results are recorded in the patient’s procedural chart.
Stage II:
Taking into account the identified “problem areas”, the specialist installs lipolaser attachments and secures them with bandages.
From 4 to 6 attachments can be installed at a time, depending on the size of local fat deposits. The Laser lipolysis procedure is performed in the “lying” position. You can feel a comfortable warmth in the treatment area. The procedure is painless.
Stage III:
The body circumference is measured, and the results are recorded in the procedural chart.
In order to accelerate the removal of broken down fatty acids from the body (to quickly free the body from the contents of destroyed fat cells), it is recommended that on the day of the Laser Lipolysis procedure, a drainage procedure is also performed on the same area.
Drainage procedures include: hardware lymphatic drainage and myostimulation (professional ESMA device), massage, mesotherapy .
Contraindications to the laser lipolysis procedure:
- excess fat deposits on the face;
- plump cheeks, “swollen” cheeks;
- elimination of the “double” chin;
- alignment of facial contours (elimination of irregularities and depressions after classical liposuction).
- Accelerate intracellular metabolism and reduce the mass of fat cells
- Warm up the tissue in “cold” cellulite areas, improve cell microcirculation
- Stimulate muscle fibers and blood vessels
- Improve nutrition of tissue cells
- Strengthen muscles
- Reduce body volume
- Stimulate the lymphatic system
- Remove excess fluid, waste products and toxins from the body.
- Double chin and cheeks
- Breeches
- Fat deposits in the waist and abdomen
- Fat deposits in the thighs and legs (knees)
- As well as excess fat in the shoulder and back area.
- Malignant and benign tumors;
- Diseases of the liver and gall bladder;
- Inflammatory processes on skin in the affected area;
- Pregnancy;
- Presence of pacemakers;
- Thrombophlebitis.
- There is no need for large incisions. This not only eliminates the risk of scars, but also reduces the likelihood of inflammation and infection.
- Does not require general anesthesia.
- Allows you to precisely focus on the “problem” area.
- The treated area of the body has a smoother surface.
- Promotes skin tightening.
- Cuts. At normal procedure they are insignificant, but still there are more punctures when using a laser. External lipolysis eliminates the need for incisions.
- Anesthesia. At traditional method– general, with laser it is enough local anesthesia. Accordingly, there are contraindications for normal operation there will be more.
- The volume of fat removed during a typical operation ranges from 1 to 3 liters. During lipolysis - no more than 0.5 liters.
- Hard-to-reach places are easier to “work” with a laser beam.
- Healing of incisions after lipolysis is faster, there is no need to wear compression underwear for a long time.
- Skin tightening is an advantage of the laser method.
- Painful sensations after classical operation stronger and longer lasting.
- fat deposits in hard-to-reach places;
- unevenness after the traditional procedure;
- lipomas;
- treatment of hyperhidrosis.
- pregnancy and breastfeeding;
- diabetes;
- cardiovascular diseases;
- weakened immune system;
- period of exacerbation of chronic diseases;
- inflammatory processes;
- skin diseases;
- liver disease (with external liposuction).
- “How long does the effect last?”
“During lipolysis, fat cells are destroyed, so the treated area will remain slim for life.”
- “Is it possible to stop dieting?”
“If an excess amount of calories enters the body, fat will still be deposited, but in other places. Body proportions can change significantly when overeating.”
- “Will there be scars?”
“Minor puncture marks will heal very quickly.”
- “Is it possible to sunbathe after lipolysis?”
“You shouldn’t get carried away with tanning during the first month; you need to give your skin the opportunity to recover.”
- “How soon will the results be visible?”
“The reduction in volume is noticeable immediately, over two months the body contour will improve and after six months the final result will be visible.”
All acute conditions(herpes, sore throat, flu, etc.);
Chronic skin diseases in the acute phase;
Violation of the integrity of the skin in the affected area;
Cardiovascular diseases in the stage of decompensation (hypertension, phlebitis, vascular fragility, etc.);
Availability artificial driver rhythm
Presence of metal implants
Kidney or liver failure
Mental illnesses;
Oncological diseases.
Diabetes mellitus in the stage of decompensation;
During the course of procedures you need
Drink plenty of fluids and drink at least two liters of water daily. This is necessary to facilitate the transport of fat into the lymph flow.
Small ones required physical exercise. Sport helps activate blood and lymph flow, which helps remove fat breakdown products from the intercellular space.
Lymphatic drainage is very useful, which also activates the flow of blood and lymph.
It is worth limiting the consumption of coffee and cigarettes.
Alcohol is contraindicated.

Contraindications to laser lipolysis
The laser lipolysis procedure is not recommended during pregnancy and lactation, with liver and kidney pathologies, as well as of cardio-vascular system, with exacerbation of systemic and oncological diseases, at diabetes mellitus in the stage of decompensation and in individual cases (determined during consultation with a plastic surgeon).
Using laser to reduce fat deposits
Laser facial lipolysis at the SM-Plastika Plastic Surgery Center is performed on laser machine SmartLipo (Italy) under local, intravenous or general anesthesia. The procedure itself is painless and does not leave noticeable scars or scars. It allows you to target areas with excess adipose tissue without heating them, which is why it is called “cold laser lipolysis.”
Using a thin cannula, plastic surgeon makes a puncture and inserts an electrode under the skin. A laser pulse directed at the problem area destroys fat cells and at the same time activates the production of subcutaneous collagen, which stimulates the process of natural skin tightening. It takes no more than 20 minutes to treat one zone. The breakdown products of fat cells are gradually eliminated from the body through the bloodstream and lymphatic system.
After laser lipolysis, patients are transferred to day hospital center, where they remain under the supervision of our specialists for two to four hours.
The rehabilitation period after laser lipolysis
Lipolysis is natural process the breakdown of fat cells that occurs in our body when it is necessary to replenish an additional source of energy. Translated from Greek, the term “lipolysis” means “lipos” - fat and “lysis” - decomposition.
There are two types of lipolysis: cutaneous and subcutaneous.
The procedure of cutaneous lipolysis (electrolipolysis) occurs due to the influence on problem areas (local areas of fat accumulation) of pulses of a certain frequency, which arrive through special electrodes attached to the skin. Under the influence of current, metabolism within cells is activated, microcirculation is improved, excess fluid is removed from the body and harmful substances. Blood vessels stimulate muscle fibers, cells receive more oxygen, microelements and nutrients. Fat cells do not disappear, but decrease in size, hence weight loss, reduction in body volume, and strengthening of muscles.
Cutaneous lipolysis is used for body contouring and treatment different types cellulite (fibrous, edematous, etc.).
Subcutaneous lipolysis or needle lipolysis occurs due to a direct effect on adipose tissue. A low-frequency and low-intensity impulse passing through electrodes - needles that are inserted into problem areas, activates the process of burning fat cells. As a result, the cells become deformed and disintegrate, releasing metabolic products into the intercellular space, which are then removed by the lymphatic drainage program.
This procedure has no contraindications and is performed once a week.
Electrical impulses accelerate the breakdown of fat, it breaks down into smaller components, becomes less dense and mobile, and therefore is easily removed from the cells. In areas where lipolysis is performed, the skin becomes more toned and smooth, and cellulite disappears.
Experts recommend carrying out cutaneous liposis in a course of at least 10 procedures. The results will become noticeable at the end of the course, since the process of fat breakdown does not occur immediately, but after 1-1.5 weeks. After the 2nd procedure, 20% of the fat is broken down, and after the last one, all 100%.
To be effective, you can combine lipolysis with lymphatic drainage (LPG massage, pressotherapy). The results of electrolipolysis are preserved long time. This therapeutic procedure is atraumatic, painless and completely safe, with results comparable to surgical liposuction.
Electrolipolysis helps:
In addition to cutaneous and subcutaneous electrolipolysis, there is injection and laser lipolysis.
In the first case, the drug “lipolysis” is injected into the areas of local fat deposits, which promotes the destruction of fat cells, increasing blood flow in the treated area and lymphatic drainage. These injections are carried out practically without pain After the procedure, there may be slight swelling or redness at the insertion sites, which goes away after 3-4 days.
The procedures are carried out in a course of 3 to 10 sessions every two weeks. The effect is visible immediately after the first procedure.
Laser lipolysis is aimed at breaking down fat cells using a laser. During the destruction of fat cells, coagulation occurs blood vessels, which ensures the absence of hematomas and other side effects. When using laser lipolysis, anesthesia is not required; the procedure allows you to treat hard-to-reach areas of the body and face. The rehabilitation period is short and takes little time.
Indications for lipolysis:
Lipolysis goes well with anti-cellulite massage, lymphatic drainage and SPA treatments.
Contraindications for lipolysis:
The modern generation has the fate of living in an era of food abundance. For the majority of the population, the problem of obesity is much more pressing than the struggle for survival and food. More than half of the inhabitants of developed countries are overweight.
Being overweight not only promises health problems, it causes a person to have an inferiority complex, a feeling of not meeting the standards imposed by glossy magazines. Let's figure out what laser lipolysis is, its difference from the traditional liposuction procedure, the principle of action and features, treatment areas and approximate prices, and also look at photos before and after the sessions.
At first glance, it seems that the solution to the problem is obvious - moderate nutrition and physical activity. But many people are familiar with the situation when a certain area of the body stubbornly refuses to give in to improvement, despite the Herculean efforts made.
In this case, only surgical or cosmetic procedures can help.
In the last decade, laser liposuction (lipolysis) has been rapidly gaining popularity, aimed specifically at correcting a small area of the body and having a fairly high efficiency.
Story
The first attempts to invent methods for getting rid of fat deposits were made back in the 20s of the last century. They didn't bring desired results and resulted in more complications than benefits.
But humanity did not lose hope of coming up with a “miraculous” way to lose weight on a specific part of the body. The next attempt to perform an operation to remove fatty deposits was carried out only half a century after the previous one. Unfortunately, it also turned out to be a failure.
However, after ten years Italian surgeon conducted a complex medical experiment, the patient was his own wife, to suck out fat with a vacuum through a cannula he invented. The experience turned out to be successful, but quite traumatic.
In the 80s, a solution was developed that helps to detach fat and remove it out. A few years later the turn came ultrasonic liposuction, which made a great breakthrough.
Using the latest technology, it has become possible to remove up to ten liters of fat at once.
Subsequently, methods of vibration and PAL liposuction were developed, which raised aesthetic medicine on high level. Laser technology arose thanks to a surgeon from Colombia in the 90s.
He discovered that there was no need for large incisions to remove fat; after laser treatment, the resulting emulsion was easily removed through small punctures.
Active use new technology began with the beginning of our century. The technique is constantly being improved and is widely used in many developed countries.
Operating principle
In medicine, the unique properties of lasers are used everywhere. In contour plastic surgery, under the influence of a low-frequency beam, the fat cell loses its shape and is destroyed, releasing the resulting emulsion.
Fat enters the general bloodstream and is excreted by the body. To get rid of a relatively large volume, vacuum suction is used, thereby reducing the load on the liver.
In addition, it prevents bleeding and compresses collagen fibers, providing the skin with a tightening effect.
Features of the procedure
The lipolysis method has become widespread due to its numerous advantages:
Thanks to these advantages, the procedure is by far the safest, minimizing surgical intervention.
The difference between traditional liposuction and laser
Before deciding on the type of contour plastic surgery, you need to carefully weigh the pros and cons. Traditional procedure has a number of features that significantly distinguish it from the laser method:
Mechanism
In order to understand how the procedure works, you need to know that there are two types of it - external and internal. Each case has its own fundamental differences.
External
With this option, an external laser is used. The split fat is neutralized in the liver and excreted from the body. After taking photographs and measurements, the doctor determines the “problem” area. Based on calculations, a suitable laser attachment is selected and carefully fixed on the body.
Lipolysis lasts about 20 minutes and does not cause discomfort. Upon completion, new measurements are taken to determine whether the required result has been achieved.
Interior
After photographing, a cannula with a low-frequency laser is inserted through the puncture. Under its influence, fat cells are destroyed and removed using vacuum suction.
Due to the fact that during the operation the lower layers of the dermis are heated by the laser, the collagen fibers are compressed and excess skin is tightened. The entire process takes about two hours, after which the patient is put on compression garments that tighten the treated areas.
We offer you to see how the laser lipolysis procedure works:
Impact zones and indications
Laser liposuction is great for small areas of the body - chin, cheeks, top part arms, stomach, hips, knees.
It should be remembered that this operation not suitable for overweight people, it is designed to correct certain areas that are not amenable to diet and exercise.
Ideal indications for it are:
Young mothers who want to regain their “girlish” waist often resort to lipolysis.
Often, it is after pregnancy that accumulations of fat remain in the lower abdomen. The procedure can help cope with this problem and tighten skin that has lost its elasticity.
Contraindications and complications
The list of contraindications is not long:
If fat removal occurs naturally, then nausea and slight intoxication are possible.
Therefore, this method is only suitable for people with a completely healthy liver.
Since the procedure is carried out under local anesthesia and does not require large incisions, complications occur quite rarely. Basically, this is a slight irritation, redness, inflammation of the skin at the puncture site.
Preparation period
First of all, you need to bring your weight back to normal - otherwise losing 0.5 kg will have no effect. You should stop taking any medications and strictly limit alcohol consumption and smoking.
You should go through everything as prescribed by your doctor. necessary tests to make sure that the procedure will not harm your health.
Rehabilitation period
Laser liposuction does not require a long hospital stay. A couple of hours after the procedure you can leave the clinic. It will be necessary to treat the puncture sites and take a course of antibiotics for prevention.
You will need to wear the compression garment for about four weeks. You can go additional procedures to reduce swelling and resorption of hematomas.

FAQ
Since removing fat deposits with a laser is relatively new technique, it raises questions for many.
Choosing a clinic and prices
The choice of devices for laser fat reduction is quite wide - “Zerona”, “iLipo”, “Fotona”. Most often, clinics use the Italian SmartLipo laser.
The cost of a laser liposuction procedure varies from 6,000 to 20,000 rubles per zone. The zone is a palm-sized area.
Modern fat removal under the influence of laser has already proven itself well. It is important to remember that lipolysis is not a panacea for obesity, but helps in removing fat in hard-to-reach places. Compliance balanced nutrition and regular physical activity will ensure that the results are maintained for many years.
