i Lipo away your fats without Fuss


The i-lipo emits low levels of laser energy, the fat cell membranes are disrupted 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 neighbouring structures 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. This mechanism of action is not “liquefaction of fat” rather, it is the instant breakdown of the fat cells (also referred to as lypolysis).

To see maximum results a course of 8 treatments is recommended, per body area. These treatments should be taken twice per week at regular intervals.

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.

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.
