Non-Surgical Fat Removal
Zerona® – Non-Invasive Body Slimming Laser
The Zerona® body slimming laser is becoming more and more popular among post-bariatric patients who would like to recontour their bodies without invasive surgery. After losing large amounts of weight, areas of the body can be affected by excess, loose skin that is difficult to get rid of – even with rigorous exercise and strict adherence to your new dietary and lifestyle habits after surgery. The Zerona® laser treatment is designed to reduce extra fat and inches without having to undergo invasive body contouring surgery.

Body Slimming with Zerona®
Using the FDA-approved Erchonia® LipoLASER™, Zerona® works by painlessly reducing fat in the skin’s underlying tissue, recontouring body areas and tightening the skin. The laser is designed to cause excess fat to pass through the body using its normal detoxification process. Many patients can lose three to nine inches or more of stubborn, excess fat in areas such as:
- Abdomen
- Thighs
- Hips
- Buttocks
- Love Handles
- Chin
- Neck
- Arms
- Back
The procedure can also help reduce the appearance of cellulite and provide improvement to the overall shape of your body.
The Zerona® Procedure
The Zerona® laser procedure involves a series of treatments that are non-invasive and painless. The laser is applied to the areas targeted for fat removal in a treatment session that typically lasts about 40 minutes. Patients usually undergo about three treatments per week over a two-week period for optimal results.
The Zerona® Body Slimming laser does not use heat and is not known to have side effects. There is also no downtime associated with this procedure.
