Lipo Ex is a form of non-invasive lipoplasty that may reduce both visceral and subcutaneous fat deposits, reduce the appearance of cellulite and offer skin tightening. Using bi-polar radiofrequency (RF) energy to heat the fat cells without injury to the outer layer of skin or surrounding tissues, Lipo Ex melts fat cells.

Without going under the knife, Lipo Ex addresses both types of fat: subcutaneous fat which is below the skin as well as harder to reach visceral fat that is location behind the muscle walls and in between organs. Lipo Ex uses radiofrequency energy that targets water within the fat cells, which are then heated to the point that membranes rupture and melted fat is eliminated through the body's natural waste processes. Lipo Ex may be used to treat many areas, including the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks. The face and neck may also be treated.
Post treatment, patients are encouraged to drink a lot of water and exercise strenuously to speed up the lymphatic system's elimination of the liquified fat. Patients have reported 2-3 inches lost in circumference and as much as 10 lbs after 4-6 weeks. Lipo Ex also helps with the appearance of cellulite by reducing fat and tightening skin. Since there is no cutting, there is no need for anesthesia, no scarring and no downtime associated with Lipo Ex. Most patients compare the treatment to a hot stone massage.
