COOLLIPO™ SKIN TIGHTENING LASER
Dr. Quita Lopez, Aesthetic Laser Center in Fresno

If you've thought about having liposuction in Fresno but you're concerned about recovery time, there's a new alternative that might be the right choice for you. The CoolLipo™ Laser is the premier laser for skin tightening and fat lipolysis. Dr. Quita Lopez of the Aesthetic Laser Center is among the first in the area to offer CoolLipo™ treatment for men and women in the Central Valley.

If you can't get rid of stubborn fat deposits on your abdomen, thighs or other areas of the body, you are certainly not alone. Many of our patients who live healthy lifestyles have pockets of fat that just won't budge, courtesy of genetic fat patterns. Many men and women in Fresno choose liposuction to sculpt these key areas. Now they can choose CoolLipo™ treatment as a less-invasive alternative or to complement traditional liposuction.

Dr. Lopez will examine you and recommend the right approach to meet your body contouring goals. She invites you to request a consultation at her cosmetic surgery office in Fresno today. Begin by filling out your $100 Savings Certificate, print your copy, and call (559) 440-9025.

As with any cosmetic procedure, there are some risks to be weighed against the benefits. Dr. Lopez will review these and other details with you during your appointment, and she'll help you make decisions about what's right for you.

Candidates for CoolLipo™ Treatment

The CoolLipo™ laser can be used for women seeking to sculpt and tighten areas of the face, arms, tummy and legs. It's useful for skin tightening for male breasts and flanks. Cellulite can also be improved with the CoolLipo™ by breaking up the bands that attach the skin to the underlying tissue.

Women and men in Fresno considering liposuction or CoolLipo™ laser lipolysis should understand that neither procedure should be thought of as a cure for fat. Patients who commit to a good diet, plenty of exercise and minimal sun exposure will have best, long-lasting outcomes.

The CoolLipo™ Procedure

The laser is a new, minimally-invasive technology that uses a specific wavelength to break up small areas of fat and provide proven skin tightening and lifting benefits over other lasers that work on top of the skin. The procedure is safe for both light and dark skin tones. CoolLipo™ treatment can be performed with local anesthesia or light sedation, either by itself or after standard liposuction. The laser wavelength directly targets collagen and it tightens the skin from the inside out so more skin tightening is seen compared with liposuction or "fat dissolving" treatments.

The procedure is performed with a small cannula that contains a laser fiber inside. Very tiny incisions are made that close by themselves in 1-2 days. The cannula is inserted under the skin; next, the energy emitted by the laser is used to liquefy the fat so it can be removed easily. The laser then is used to tighten the skin.

Recovery from the procedure depends on the amount of surface area treated. Most patients go back to work in 2-3 days. Patients will see results within a week and there will be continual improvement of skin texture and tightening for 2-6 months after treatment.
