FAQs
What is Advanced Laser Lipo?
Advanced Laser Lipo from Osyris, is the second generation of Laser
aimed at treating patients who want to reduce stubborn fat areas which
have not responded to exercise or previous old generation Laser Lipo
Is it different from Smartlipo?
Yes, Advanced Laser Lipo utilizes a laser ( Osyris ) designed with a
different wavelength. This wavelength allows the Physician to apply more
power and energy to really target and melt fat membranes with
outstanding results and less downtime.
Who is a suitable candidate for laser lipolysis (Advanced Laser
Lipo)?
Advanced Laser Lipo is ideal for anyone of a medium to a slightly large
size who wants to contour his or her body. It can treat areas such as
the face, chin, arms, waist, thighs and hips, too.
How long does the procedure take?
On average, the procedure takes 2-3 hours per session.
What is the long-term outcome like for most people?
Like traditional liposuction, you will need patience to see the final
results. The full effects may not be evident for upto six months to a
year. The more fat that you had removed, the longer it will take to
achieve optimal results, because the skin has to adapt to a more radical
change in shape.
Do I have to stay in the hospital?
Advanced Laser Lipo is performed as an in-clinic procedure under
local anaesthesia. You will not be required to stay in the hospital,
recuperation is best done in the comforts of your home.
What if I've already had regular liposuction?
Advanced Laser Lipo may be extremely handy for revisiting areas of
the body previously treated with traditional liposuction. With previously
treated areas, if you wanted to further sculpt or contour without going
in again with liposuction, then the Advanced Laser Lipo is a good idea.
It’s also for areas anywhere on the body that have overlying skin laxity,
especially if you’re a relatively thin, fit, and healthy person looking for
additional toning and tightening.
What is the main advantage of Advanced Laser Lipo by Osyris?
The main advantage of Advanced Laser Lipo, will be its two pronged
attack. It tightens the skin as it removes the fat, which typical liposuction
doesn’t do. Initial results have seen skin tightening (shrinkage) of about
40% but individual results may vary, consult your Physician for a full
consultation.
I've had a previous Smartlipo treatment, can I have an Advanced
Laser Lipo treatment?
Yes, many patients who have had the old generation Laser treatment
with Smartlipo have had very successful secondary treatments with
Advanced Laser LipoConsult your Advanced Laser Lipo Physician for a
full consultation.
Can Advanced Laser Lipo work on areas that regular Liposuction
can't?
Yes, because the aiming beam at the tip of the fiber (laser) lets you
know exactly where you are at all times, which allows the user to be
very precise. As a result, Advanced Laser Lipo is very useful in areas
not suitable for standard techniques ,such as the face, neck, back and
knees.
Is Advanced Laser Lipo safe?
Yes. Advanced Laser Lipo is fully approved with the FDA ( USA ) and CE registration ( Europe ). Advanced Laser
Lipo is only performed by trained GMC registered Physicians in
appropriate facilities. Thousands of procedures have been performed
worldwide to date.
