Low level laser therapy emits cold laser energy into body tissues that are absorbed by fat cells, which are broken down and absorbed into the body. Incorporating cool-laser technology for eliminating fat deposits around your abdomen, thighs, buttocks, arms and other areas of the body, LLLT exposes unwanted fat to low-level laser energy that forces fat cells to expel lipids into your body.
Once outside the cells, this fat is assimilated by the body and eventually removed via natural processes.
​
LLLT is a good fat reduction treatment for those who have particular problem areas (e.g., muffin top), but are not significantly overweight. Patients must be willing to undergo a strict diet both before and after treatment.
This treatment 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 free fatty acids.

Does Plasma treatment hurt?Plasma pen treatment is uncomfortable. We recommend you come to your appointment pre-numbed with a topical numbing cream.
