Are your skinny jeans a little tighter than they once were? Are you concerned about looking as good as you used to in your swimsuit? If you’re interested in getting rid of extra body fat and shaping up your figure, Zerona treatments can help. This amazing laser treatment, offered at Mariposa Aesthetics & Laser Center in Oklahoma City, OK, can help you quickly shed inches and slim down problem areas.
How Fast Does Zerona Work?
This treatment system offers almost immediate results, making it a great option for patients who have a deadline for shaping up, such as a wedding or reunion. It is also ideal for individuals looking to kickstart a body reshaping regimen. Most patients see noticeable improvement during the first few weeks, with their full results developing within two months. Patients lose an average of 3.6 inches from the targetted area, and some individuals lose much more!
Zerona results are not permanent, but they can be long-lasting if you stick to a calorie-neutral lifestyle. Patients often find their results to be highly motivating and are eager to maintain their new look by eating right and exercising.
What Can I Do To Maximize My Results?
There are several steps you can take to get the most out of your treatment. One is to take Curva supplements, which were developed by the manufacturer of this treatment system. It will also be important that you drink plenty of water. Avoiding alcohol and caffeine, both of which are dehydrating, is another important step. Getting 30 to 45 minutes of moderate exercise each day, such as walking and swimming, also helps.
How Does This Treatment Work?
Zerona is a laser-based body contouring system. It won’t help you lose a lot of weight, but it can improve the shape of your body by getting rid of areas of excess fat. This treatment uses laser energy to damage fat cells, causing them to release their contents and deflate. The body’s lymphatic system then naturally disposes of those fatty liquids. The laser hones in on fat cells but poses no danger to the skin or surrounding soft tissue.
Treatments are easy and are brief enough to fit into a lunch hour. Patients lay on a treatment table for 20 minutes on their front and 20 minutes on their back. The lasers will be directed toward your target area and will hover three to six inches above your skin. This is a noninvasive treatment and patients may feel a slight tingling, but there will be no discomfort. Most individuals spend their treatment time reading or relaxing.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
The manufacturer of this treatment system recommends that patients schedule six sessions over two weeks. This works out to one session every other day.
What Parts of the Body Does This Work On?
This treatment can be used all over the body, including on the waist, back, arms, thighs, and neck. It can even be used on the ankles!
So This Treatment Doesn’t Kill Fat Cells?
No. This treatment doesn’t destroy fat cells, and that’s a good thing. Fat cells support a healthy body in many ways. They support the bodily processes that regulate our metabolism and immune systems, both of which help patients stay lean and healthy.
How Does This Compare to Other Body Contouring Treatments?
CoolSculpting
This treatment is similar to another noninvasive body contouring system offered by our practice called CoolScupting. During CoolSculpting sessions, an external device is used to chill unwanted fat cells, destroying them. Those fat cells are then flushed naturally from the body. CoolSculpting kills fat cells, while Zerona deflates them. If you’re interested in contouring your body, we can talk with you about which treatment is the best option.
Liposuction
Liposuction is a more involved treatment in which an incision is made in the body and unwanted fat cells are siphoned out. Liposuction represents the permanent removal of fat cells, but it involves anesthesia and requires a period of recovery. Some patients are not able to commit to the downtime associated with a surgical approach, and others are not surgical candidates. Zerona is an easy, no-hassle way of getting your body in shape.
Am I a Good Candidate?
You’re at a Stable Weight
This treatment is not recommended for patients who are looking to lose a significant amount of weight. It’s also not ideal for patients whose weight is fluctuating. But if you’re at a stable weight and are looking to sculpt your body by getting rid of inches and taming problem spots, you may be an ideal candidate.
You Can Commit to the Treatment Schedule
For this treatment to be effective, patients should be able to commit to the treatment schedule we recommend, which may involve several appointments in one week.
You’re Healthy
It helps if you’re in good general health. This treatment is not recommended for patients with pacemakers or those who are pregnant.
You Adhere to a Healthy Lifestyle
This treatment is perfect for patients who already eat a healthy diet and exercise regularly, but who still have small areas of unwanted fat that they want to get rid of. It’s also a solution for individuals who are looking to kickstart a healthy lifestyle and want the motivation that comes with immediate results.
What Advantages Are Associated With This Treatment?
It’s Safe
The technology used in these treatments is safely and widely used, and not just for fat reduction. This type of laser therapy is also used to relieve chronic pain and address onychomycosis, a type of nail fungus. This treatment was approved by the FDA in 2010 for fat reduction.
It Tackles Stubborn Fat
One of the great things about this treatment is that it allows patients to pinpoint specific areas of unwanted fat and get rid of them. This type of precision is not something that can be accomplished through traditional weight loss, which doesn’t give you any control over where the weight comes off. This treatment can also tackle stubborn fat that has resisted diet and exercise.
It’s Cost-Effective
Sure, you could turn to liposuction to get rid of unwanted fat. But lipo and other invasive approaches are more expensive. If you want to get in shape without breaking the bank, this treatment may be the perfect solution.
It’s Versatile
This versatile treatment system can be used all over the body, from the legs and love handles to the back. Every patient comes to us with a different set of cosmetic concerns, and using Zerona technology, we can develop a custom treatment plan for each person.
It’s Comfortable
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could sit back and read a book or listen to music and still get the body you’ve been hoping for? Zerona allows you to do just that. This treatment gets rid of unwanted fat without you ever having to break a sweat.
It Poses No Risk of Complications
Because this treatment system is noninvasive, you won’t have to worry about anesthesia, incisions, stitches, or scarring. This also means there’s no danger of post-treatment infection or any other complications.
It’ll Help You Feel Great
This treatment will help you get your body back. Once your problem spots have been addressed, you’ll appear slimmer, sexier, and more youthful. You’ll feel great about the way you look.
