The machine emits low levels of laser energy, which creates a chemical signal in the fat cells, breaking down the stored triglycerides into free fatty acids and glycerol and releasing them though channels in the cell membranes. The fatty acids and glycerol are then transported around the body to the tissues that will use them during metabolism to create energy.

 

This process of fatty acid release is a natural response of the body when the body needs to used stored energy reserves, thus laser lipo is not creating any unnatural reaction in the body nor does it affect or damage any surrounding structures such as skin, blood vessels and peripheral nerves. A period of exercise post treatment will ensure the complete metabolism and thus elimination from the body of the freed fatty acids.

 

When you consume more calories than you use, the extra calories are stored as fat inside a fat cell. The laser using the latest technology, emits low levels of safe laser energy, which passes safely through your skin and onto the fat cells. This affects the fat cell membrane (outside wall of the fat cell) and causes it to release the fat stored within it. This does not affect the neighboring structures such as skin, blood vessels and peripheral nerves.

 

Fat spills out from the broken cell membranes and are released into the interstitial space where they are slowly transported through the body's natural lymphatic system, it is strongly advisable to undertake some form of physical exercise to help dispose of the fat more efficiently and ensure it is not reabsorbed.
