ZERONA® is a new non-invasive body sculpting procedure designed to remove fat and contour the body without invasive surgery. Receiving FDA approval in 2008, the ZERONA® works by using the Erchonia® Laser Scanner. The Laser Scanner works by emitting cold laser energy into the body tissues. This energy is then absorbed by the body fat and the fat is emulsified or liquefied within the cell. The liquefied fat moves from inside the cell through a temporary pore formed in the cell membrane to outside the cell where it is in the interstitial space until it is channeled out of the body during its normal course of detoxification through the lymphatic system. The ZERONA® laser virtually stimulates the break down and removal of body fat, without affecting the surrounding skin and tissues.
The ZERONA® procedure has helped patients lose an average of 3.64-9 inches from their waist, hips, and thighs. There is no downtime with this procedure, allowing the patient to continue their daily activities without the inconvenience of incisions or marks from the treatment, the need to wear compression garments, and pain or other side effects from the procedure.
ZERONA® is a great option for three types of patients. For those just beginning to get back into shape, the ZERONA® treatment will maximize the amount of fat lost. It is an excellent option for those that would like to avoid surgery or avoid any invasive procedures but would like to try something to reduce fat and inches. Lastly, for those patients who would consider surgery after they have tried everything else, this seems to be the treatment of choice.
