ZERONA Body Slimming, An Alternative to Liposuction

As technology continues to break new boundaries, plastic surgeons have expanding selections of weight loss and body slimming techniques that are changing the way can shape bodies and melt away excess fat.

One of the latest non-invasive body slimming procedures is the ZERONA.

ZERONA is a new body- slimming system designed to remove fat and contour the body without any pain, needles, or surgery. Best of all, ZERONA allows you to continue daily activity without interruption. ZERONA has already been featured on THE DOCTORS & Rachel Ray.

ZERONA works by using Erchonia’s patented and clinically proven low-level laser technology. This laser emulsifies the adipose tissue which is then released into the interstitial space. The excess fat is passed through the body during its normal course of detoxification. The ZERONA procedure was proven through a double-blind, randomized, multi-site, and placebo-controlled study in which patients, on average, lost 3.64 inches from their waist, hips, and thighs. This result is dramatic compared to the placebo group, which only lost an average of half an inch.

What Parts Of The Body Can ZERONA Treat?

The ZERONA treatment can be used effectively on essentially every part of the body where localized fat deposits. Typically, ZERONA works best on areas of the body that have been resistant to diet and exercise. Most patients start with treating the waist, hips and thighs which can all be targeted in one treatment. Other areas include upper arms, back, inner knees, and buttocks.

The ZERONA low-level laser therapy is considered a safe alternative to invasive procedures such as tumescent liposuction. The ZERONA treatment is 100% non-invasive and causes no bruising, scarring and zero downtime. During the treatment you will feel no discomfort, no anesthesia will be used and you can assume normal activities immediately following each treatment.

Some patients see and feel results immediately, while others notice after a few sessions. ZERONA is an excellent procedure for melting fat and giving you the appearance you’ve always wanted.

How ZERONA Differs From Liposuction

Liposuction is an invasive procedure that removes the entire area of fat cells from deposits beneath the skin using a hollow stainless steel tube (called a cannula) with the assistance of a powerful vacuum. Liposuction can be accomplished either with the use of general anesthesia, or with IV sedation, or totally by local anesthesia.

In contrast, the ZERONA treatment is a 100% non-invasive procedure that uses a low level laser applied externally to stimulate the fat cells and emulsify and release fat. There is no use of anesthesia, and there is no pain. There is no numbing agents needed, no needles and no downtime.

If you have localized deposits of stubborn fat that won’t go away with diet and exercise, the ZERONA body slimming system may be a good procedure for you. If you are looking for a way to shed fat without a lot of downtime, you should discuss with your doctor to determine if Body-Jet might be right for you.
