If you struggle with stubborn fat around the abdomen, hips, thighs, or other areas despite dieting and exercising, you are not alone. Many people find that certain pockets of fat respond more slowly to lifestyle changes. While surgical options exist, some patients prefer a non-invasive alternative with less downtime and fewer risks.

i-Lipo® Can Help You Reveal Your True Shape!
Non-Invasive Fat Reduction to Reveal Your True Shape
At Skinsational Laser Center, we are proud to offer i-Lipo®, one of the most effective non-invasive fat-burning and body-contouring technologies available today. This FDA-approved treatment helps shrink fat cells using gentle laser energy—without surgery, discomfort, or recovery time.
What Is i-Lipo®?
i-Lipo® is a non-invasive laser fat-reduction system that uses low-level (“cold”) laser technology to:
- Shrink fat cells
- Liquefy stored fat
- Trigger the body’s natural metabolic processes
- Smooth and contour the treated areas
Unlike traditional liposuction, i-Lipo® does not damage fat cells or surrounding tissues. Instead, it encourages fat cells to release their stored content so the body can naturally eliminate it. The result is a gradual, natural-looking reduction in circumference in areas such as the waist, hips, and thighs.
Benefits of i-Lipo®
Patients choose i-Lipo® because it offers:
- No downtime
- No pain or discomfort
- No incisions, bruising, or swelling
- No complications or anesthesia
- FDA-approved safety and effectiveness
- Gradual, natural-looking fat reduction
- Affordability compared to surgical liposuction
- Reduced cholesterol and improved lipid profiles (as demonstrated in studies)
- Ability to remain active throughout treatment
Unlike weight-loss surgery or invasive procedures, i-Lipo® is performed externally, making it an ideal choice for busy individuals who want results without interrupting their daily routine.
How i-Lipo® Works
i-Lipo® uses low-level laser energy to penetrate beneath the skin and target fat cells. This process:
- Liquefies fat inside the cell
- Causes the fat cell to shrink in size
- Allows the liquefied fat to be removed naturally
- Smooths and refines body contours over time
Because subcutaneous fat lies just beneath the skin, laser emulsification can produce dramatic improvements with no damage to deeper tissues. This technology is gentle, safe, and effective for reducing bulges and problem areas.
What Areas Can i-Lipo® Treat?
i-Lipo® is designed to treat fat-storing regions such as:
- Abdomen
- Waist
- Hips
- Thighs
- Flanks
- Arms
- And other localized areas of pinchable fat
Because the laser is gentle and non-destructive, i-Lipo® can be used on many body zones safely and effectively.
Your i-Lipo® Treatment Experience
During your treatment:
- You will lie comfortably on a treatment bed
- Laser paddles are applied to the target areas
- The session lasts less than one hour
- You will feel little to no sensation during treatment
- There is zero downtime—you may resume normal activities immediately
Most patients require 8 sessions, typically 2 treatments per week for 4 weeks, to achieve optimal results.
A controlled clinical study showed patients lost an average of 3.64 inches across the waist, hips, and thighs.
Results may be even more dramatic when combined with exercise and healthy nutrition.
