La Mel Contour

A noninvasive alternative to traditional liposuction, laser-like body contouring relies on light rather than scalpels. Special paddles are applied to the body. The device directs laser like energy into the fat cells, causing them to open and release their liquid contents through a temporary pore in the cell membrane. The body then naturally disposes of the released matter. As the fat is burned by the body’s metabolism over the next few weeks, the treated area may appear more contoured, and progress is measured in inches rather than pounds. All this takes place well below the surface of the skin, and no downtime is required.
