IPL vs. Photofacial vs. Laser Treatment

I found people always confused between IPL Treatment, Photofacial and Laser Treatment. Let me clarify that all three are different things. Below are the facts one should remind

• - IPL sometimes referred as photofacial, photofacial is a treatment which can be performed via IPL machines.
• - Photofacial can be also performed by other machines, other than IPL machine
• - IPL and Laser Treatment are altogether different things, IPL is not same as Laser Treatment

How IPL Works?

IPL throws a short blast of polychromatic, high-intensity light over the surface of the skin. The light rays will penetrate the skin surface and attack on melanin that is causing the dark spots or the blood vessels that is creating broken capillaries. This will repair the damaged skin and boost collagen and elastin. This will give your a fresher look to your skin, enhance the tightness of the skin and tighten the large pores.

The IPL light will penetrate deep on the skin surface, and the dark spots and part of the skin will attract the light of IPL. This will cure problems like pigmentation, clogged glands and any unevenness under the skin.

One session of IPL Treatment lasts for 20 to 30 minutes, and to have a complete treatment one have to go through six to eight sessions on interval of 3 to 4 weeks. IPL is also used for hair removal. IPL machines can be used for different purposes with different intensity settings.

Liposuction is a surgical procedure which has become popular world-wide for removing fatty cells from targeted areas of the body. This procedure turn the contours of the body into more pleasing form and boosting the confidence of the patient and helping them feel more attractive.

However many people often ask if there is a way to the result of liposuction without surgery. Fortunately substantial progress in the field of body contouring has discovered non-surgical liposuction that can gives similar results as liposuction.

There are various techniques of doing non-surgical liposuction and non-surgical fat removal. Here I will provide you with basic information on some non-surgical liposuction techniques which are currently available in the market including LipoSonix Ultrasound, Thermage, Velashape II,  Zerona and Lipodissolve and Mesotherapy.

LipoSonix Ultrasound Body Contouring

The LipoSonix treatment uses non-invasive high-intensity focused ultrasound to get rid of fat around you waistline (abdomen and love handles) without surgery. You can get result usually in 8 to 12 week.

High-intensity ultrasound energy is focused on targeted fat without damaging skin. Targeted fat underneath the skin is permanently destroyed by the ultrasound energy. The body naturally removes the destroyed fat from the area of the treatment and makes your waistline thinner, more contoured.

With LipoSonix treatment you can reduce waistline by an average 2.5 cm with a single 1 hour treatment not like other fat removal treatment which requires multiple treatments to get desired results. You can see results usually in 8 to 12 weeks. The Liposonix system gets approval to use and sale in the European Union and Canada but not cleared for sale in the U.S.

Thermage – Non-Invasive Skin Tightening and Contouring

Thermage is non-invasive, safe, radiofrequency (RF) cosmetic procedure. this procedure clinically proven to help smooth, tighten and contour skin for an overall younger looking appearance. This treatment offers natural looking results on all skin colors, on and off the face and all in single procedure with very little to no downtime. Thermage procedures treat skin on most body parts including the face, eyes, lips, tummy, arms, hands, and buttocks effectively and safely. Thermage can also reduce the appearance of cellulite temporarily.

Thermage treatment does not require four or more sessions like other laser procedures. This treatment gives result in a single treatment for most patients. Thermage is only a non-invasive treatment in the market when it comes to skin tightening and contouring with little or no downtime.

VelaShape II System – Non-Invasive Body Shaping Treatment

VelaShape II is the first FDA cleared non-invasive medical solution for circumferential and the first FDA class II cleared platform for cellulite reduction. The VelaShape platform has also get the CE mark for non-invasive body contouring via temporary circumfeential reduction and for temporary reduction of cellulite.

The VelaShape II combines gentle light and radio frequency energies with mechanical rollers and vacuum suction to operate the superficial fat tissue layer which supply to cellulite. The heat from the light and RF energies increases metabolism of this fatty layer and shrinks the size of fat cells. This mechanical rollers and vacuum suction perform on the blood vessels to increase circulation to the local area as well as massaging the skin to get smoother and less pited surface appearance. The VelaShape II FDA cleared for temporary reduction of thighs circumferences and temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite.

Zerona – Cold Laser Fat Reduction

Zerona is the first non-invasive body contouring procedure that effectively remove excess fat without the negative side effect combined with surgical techniques. Zerona operates the same cold laser technology developed by Erchonia that has been shown to soften fat and allow it to move to interstitial space. It was found that the cold laser treatment alone helped patients to reduce inches from their waist, hip and thighs, even if this technology was originally developed to help assist tumescent liposuction procedures.

The cold laser technology of the Zerona procedure was revealed to entirely release the cellular contents of fat cells while leaving the capillaries and other cells inside the interstitial space intact. The release of the fat cell contents is the result of the distraction of the cells covering. This casing distraction which called a transitory pore is the result of low-level laser stimulation.
