If you are looking to target stubborn areas of fat, there are various types of laser therapy that you can get to get rid of some of this fat. At Unity Chiropractic and Wellness Center in McMinnville, OR, we can provide laser therapy from our chiropractor. Coolsculpting and Zerona laser treatments are unique therapies that can help with stubborn areas. Read below to find out the difference between each laser treatment.
Zerona Laser Treatment
This type of laser uses red light to activate chlorophyll. This activation makes this cold laser create an effect in cells, much like how plants react to sunlight. A light-sensitive enzyme in the fat cells is activated.
Zerona laser treatment creates a pore in the fat cells, causing them to liquefy and flow into the lymphatic system. These liquefied cells travel through the body to be burned away for fuel. This process removes areas of fat, causing problems. However, people can get Zerona laser treatments if they need to remove just a few pounds.
These treatments are meant for many body areas, including the ankles, thighs, arms, neck, chest, waist, back, and hips.
Coolsculpting
Coolsculpting works by a different process. It targets fat cells and freezes them, killing them. This contouring treatment can remove up to 15% of the fat cells in the targeted area. It uses applicators to administer it. This method is used for people who live a healthy lifestyle. It can be used on the abs, under the chin, sides, lower back, and thighs.
