The first FDA approved, non-invasive body contouring procedure proven both safe
and effective at removing unwanted fat and inches. ZERONA is the safest and most
researched low-level laser in the world, allowing physicians to offer a painless
alternative to liposuction. More specifically, ZERONA® has been approved by the
FDA for the elimination of fat and reduction of waist, hips and thighs. In a double
blind, randomized, placebo controlled study, patients were treated 6 times over
a 2 week period with Zerona - a patented low-level laser system - and lost on average
3.5 inches in combined circumferential measurements of their waist hips and bilateral
thighs.
The technology behind ZERONA® is based on low level laser therapy, or LLLT for short.
LLLT affects the signaling of cells, or to put it simply, accelerates naturally
occurring processes. It has been safely used for over 40 years in reducing pain
and inflammation, promoting cellular activity and rate of replication and increasing
blood flow. Today, it has been widely adopted by athletes to reduce pain and inflammation
and to hasten recovery after strenuous efforts. In the medical community it has
also gained acceptance as the treatment of choice when dealing with recalcitrant
wounds like eschars or ulcers. We are just at the tipping point of a broader understanding
and acceptance of LLLT, as a viable treatment alternative for many health and medical
issues.
