California Skin Institute Announces New Liposonix Non-Invasive Fat Reduction Treatment

One treatment, lasting one hour, to get one size smaller – without surgery*

San Francisco, California, November 16th, 2012 – Today, California Skin Institute is announcing the latest addition to their extensive line of body sculpting treatments: Liposonix Non-Invasive Fat Reduction Treatment.* Liposonix employs high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) energy to damage targeted fat cells without the complications involved with surgery.*

“This new procedure is an innovative and revolutionary solution for those who have stubborn areas of fat that just won’t go away despite exercise and dieting. Liposonix involves no surgery, and is ideal for those patients who are close to their ideal shape and are reluctant to undergo surgery.* The procedure takes approximately one hour and, while individual results can vary, the average patient achieves a waistline improvement several weeks after receiving a single treatment,” said Dr. Greg Morganroth, the President and Founder of California Skin Institute.*

The Liposonix system technology from Solta Medical, a global leader in the medical aesthetics market, was developed over a period of 10 years by leading scientists and ultrasound experts with more than 200 years of combined experience in the field of therapeutic and diagnostic ultrasound devices. It works by focusing ultrasound energy below the surface of the skin in order to heat only targeted fat tissue – similar to how light from the sun can be focused with a magnifying glass to create heat.*

The treated fat tissue is removed through the body’s natural healing process, leaving the patient with a thinner, more contoured waistline.* Patients typically resume normal activities immediately after the Liposonix procedure and no special diet or exercise program is required in order to achieve improvements.*

“Our patients love Liposonix because it delivers outcomes without the necessity of surgery or the risks associated with typical fat-reduction procedures.* Liposonix is not liposuction, and it involves no invasive surgery whatsoever.* However, as is the case with other fat-reduction procedures, it should not be considered a replacement for a healthy lifestyle and exercise, and it is not a way to lose weight.* Liposonix is a quick, easy way to help patients slim that last inch and hit their personal shape goals.”*
