Laser Fat Loss

Achieve the body you have always dreamed of with our laser fat loss treatment. If you struggle to lose stubborn fat, despite eating well and exercising regularly, this non-invasive procedure can provide you with the toned and sculpted figure you desire.

What laser fat loss entails

With the latest technology and techniques, laser treatment requires no surgery, minimal discomfort and little to no downtime, making it the perfect solution for those who want to look their best without disrupting their busy lives.

Laser fat loss works by heating fat cells in localised areas, converting them into water and free fatty acids, which are then released into the bloodstream and removed through the lymphatic system. In essence, the fat cells are broken down and released through the body naturally.

Areas treated by laser fat loss

This treatment is beneficial because it can target many areas of the body. Whether you're concerned about your post-pregnancy pouch or double chin, Dr Hassim can help sculpt and tone your body as needed.

Specific areas targeted by laser fat loss include:

  • Belly
  • Arms
  • Thighs
  • Buttocks
  • Neck
  • Face
  • Ankles
  • Back
  • Sides (love handles)

Dr Hassim will do a full assessment before recommending the best areas for treatment.

How laser fat loss works

Dr Hassim performs laser fat loss treatments in the convenience of her office at Netcare Sunninghill Hospital. She will ask you to remove your clothes (depending on where you receive the treatment) and lie on the patient bed.

She then applies the applicators to the area being treated and ensures you are comfortable before activating the lasers. The applicators will emit heat that breaks down the fat cells, allowing them to be removed from the body. However, the entire process is pain-free, and you won't feel discomfort.

The process takes about half an hour, and you can continue your daily activities.

Results of laser fat loss

The results of laser fat loss include prominent sculpting and centimetre loss in the treated areas. That's why Dr Hassim recommends taking before and after pictures while receiving treatment and measuring yourself frequently.

In some cases, you can start to see results almost immediately after your first treatment. For most women, however, it can take about 3-5 treatments and a few weeks to see the desired results. Dr Hassim can advise you on a more accurate timeline for your particular treatment during your initial consultation.

Benefits of laser fat loss

Laser fat loss has all the benefits of traditional surgical liposuction but without the need for invasive surgery.

  • Lose fat in a safe and effective way
  • Target specific trouble areas
  • Minimal recovery time
  • Sculpt and contour your body
  • Versatile and convenient treatment

It's essential to note that although the particular fat cells targeted with laser fat loss treatment won't return, you can still develop more fat if you don't maintain a healthy diet and regular exercise. That's why Dr Hassim recommends maintaining a healthy lifestyle to get the full benefits of the treatment.
