Losing weight is a goal that many people have, but it is not always easy to achieve. If dieting is not yielding the results you wish to see and you want to avoid more invasive options, green low-level laser therapy may be a good fit for you. This non-invasive procedure is an FDA-cleared option for removing fat cells. Our team works with patients who are interested in green low-level laser therapy in San Antonio to help them achieve their aesthetic and wellness goals.
Lasers operate within specific frequency ranges, with green wavelength lasers operating between 510 and 570 nanometers. This allows the green light to penetrate your tissue more effectively, letting it reach deeper tissue and improving its ability to target the areas you desire. Green lasers also emit a lower thermal energy, which reduces the risk of heat damage and the discomfort that may come with it.
Green LLLT uses a cold laser, also known as a low-level laser, to create small pores on the walls of fat cells. Fat inside the cell is emulsified, and it leaves the cell through the pores, which is what allows you to lose weight. Once the fat is released from the cell, your body is able to naturally dispose of it using the lymphatic system. This process is often preferred to ones that fully destroy fat cells, as that can result in unintended weight gain in other parts of your body.
Green LLLT can be completed on your waist, hips, thighs, or arms, empowering patients in San Antonio to find confidence in their appearance by targeting specific problem areas. If you are interested in this procedure, our team will explain each step involved to help you understand what will happen and play an active role in your treatment. We are here to partner with you as you find your ideal weight loss treatment.
Green LLLT offers a variety of benefits to patients in San Antonio. The procedure is non-invasive, meaning that you can avoid any side effects from surgery, such as scarring and long recovery times. Green LLLT is a painless treatment that simply involves lying on a table while the laser is applied to the treatment area. You will be able to resume your regular routine directly following the procedure.
Ideal candidates for green LLLT are in good overall health, do not smoke or are willing to stop before treatment, and have specific goals and realistic expectations for the procedure. This procedure may not be a good fit for patients who are obese, have loose skin, or have been diagnosed with medical conditions like diabetes, heart disease, or liver disease. Additionally, you should not undergo green LLLT if you are pregnant or trying to become pregnant.
The process of trying to lose weight can often be long, arduous, and frustrating. If you are ready to see results in specific areas of your body, green low-level laser therapy may be the ideal procedure for you. Green LLLT will allow you to enjoy your ideal form with no downtime afterward.
