Fashion Week Interview

Recently, I was interviewed by the editor from Fashion Week Daily. She was interested in talking to me about the Zerona Laser. FWD, I’m told, is the bible of Fashion Week. I asked the writer about the views of her audience towards weight and the ideal body shape. She said that most people in the fashion world want to be as thin as possible. If they’re a size 6 they want to be a 4 and so on.

The Laser can effectively remove a few inches of superficial fat in two weeks. Occasionally, we get a woman who comes in and is too slender to be a candidate for our Body Lite Treatment using the Zerona Laser. The best candidate can pinch a few inches. If you go to pinch and you feel bone, your probably not a candidate.

In general, the most difficult area to get a few inches of fat reduction is the arms. Some people have flabby arms and are great candidates, but for others the issue is more a matter of definition, rather than chubby appendages. They would be better off to do a little toning for the biceps and triceps.

However, most of our our patients are interested in shaping the tummy, hips and thighs. The picture of the Zerona laser above shows the device as having 4 arms. There is one laser mounted on each arm and one in the middle. The movable arms enable us to target the low level lasers upon problem areas. This is a huge benefit. We can customize the treatment by focusing the laser light according to individual needs. This helps us to shape and contour the body as desired.

And you don't have to be on the runway to appreciate that!
