Zerona uses laser technology to melt fat in targeted areas of the body. The fat is then expelled through the body's natural processes. It is completely non-invasive and patients report little to no associated pain; you can actually go back to regular activity immediately. Marianne from Realis Medical Spa says the procedure is, "painless with no downtime, however, we want our patients to work out the same day after each session." They recommend a cardiovascular workout to help the body process the melted fat. In a study, patients lost an average of 3.5 inches, with some losing as many as 9.
Each session takes about 40 minutes, which will vary depending on the area treated. You will visit your Zerona provider three times a week for two weeks for a full course of treatment. Providers charge anywhere from $2400-$3600, with most charging around $2800 for all six visits. Many providers include supplements in this price.
Dr. Troy Don of Advanced Health Source says, "the Zerona laser is fantastic.” His patients have received “amazing targeted results” and he knows not everyone wants to go under the knife so this is a great alternative to Liposuction.
Many of the providers we spoke to are performing their own studies on the device and are holding off on providing their opinion until they have more data. As with any new procedure, if it sounds too good to be true than it probably is. It is very important to inquire how many procedures the provider has done, ask about reasonable expectations for results based on your body type, inquire about any complications and ask to see many before and after photos of their patients.
