More About: Lipo-Laser
The Lipo-Laser was developed specifically to target the growing obesity market. The Lipo-laser's non-invasive treatment is considered one of the most innovative methods to liquefy adipose tissue, and the demand for this type of treatment is expected to grow rapidly, not only in the plastic surgery profession, but in any clinical setting, such as spas and wellness centers, that treat localized body fat deposits which may not have responded to diet and exercise.
