PlasmaLipo Petit Body Toning

Do you wish you could lose a couple of inches around the:

• waist?
• arms?
• thighs?
• hips?
• chin?
• face?
• calf?

Most people in Singapore are not extremely obese.  They thus fall into the “sandwich” group where conventional liposuction is not needed, but there still exists a dissatisfaction with the body contour.  These people who are not obviously thin or obviously fat, but have 1-2 extra inches of fat and would like to lose it are candidates for PlasmaLipo, the latest body contouring technique to hit medical aesthetics.

What is PlasmaLipo?

It is the newest revolution to hit Japan and Korea.  PlasmaLipo is invented and patented in Japan.  It is a simple body toning and contouring technique, without incision or suction, and can be completed in 20 mins, vs 140 mins for conventional liposuction, or 60 mins for laser liposuction.  Utilizing a tiny 2 mm diameter probe with a tiny optical fibre inserted under the skin, PlasmaLipo delivers radiating plasma energy to targeted fat tissues to melt fats and tighten skins.

It can be done under local anaesthesia for small areas and is highly efficient, needing 95% less strokes than conventional
 liposuction or laser lipolysis (e.g SmartLipo)

The PlasmaLipo Advantage

• Minimal downtime – tiny optical fibre, almost no scar
• Less pain – can be done under local anaesthesia
• Less bruising/bleeding – because the plasma energy closes blood vessels to prevent bleeding
• Shorter procedure – 85% shorter time than conventional liposuction, as little as 20 mins
• Safe – less bleeding, shorter and lighter anaesthesia needed
• Better skin tightening therefore it minimizes loose skin after the procedure
• No drainage needed – no heavy bandages or repeat visits to doctor

How Does It Work?

A tiny probe is inserted into the fat tissues under local anaesthesia, via a small needle-hole.  The probe emits plasma energy at the tip, and fat cells are broken down to liquid oil by the plasma energy. These oils are channeled through the body’s natural lymphatic drainage and disposed of by our body’s metabolism – no suction is needed! After the procedure, the loose skin is progressively tightened over 6 months because plasma energy stimulates new collagen formation under the skin.

How is PlasmaLipo different from SmartLipo and LaserLipo?

Conventional LaserLipo and SmartLipo were earlier, promising technologies which made use of laser to melt fat under the skin.  LaserLipo and SmartLipo still required a lot of strokes to achieve any result.  This is because the laser probes did not have a large area of effect, and therefore did not show much results. Because of the large number of strokes needed in the past, there was still significant bruising and the procedure time was just as long as conventional liposuction.  With PlasmaLipo, because the probe emits a ball of plasma energy, there is a larger area of effect and therefore the number of strokes needed is reduced by 95%!  This means less trauma, less bruising and less procedure time and down time!

Results from PlasmaLipo

PlasmaLipo is designed for small area toning and fat reduction.  It can be used for skin tightening or fat reduction.  Here are some results that you can expect from PlasmaLipo.  PlasmaLipo is not recommended for large areas or large amounts of fat loss.  In such cases, we recommend Vaser Liposelection for the best result.

What Other Surgeons Are Saying About PlasmaLipo

“First of all, it is very comfortable for operator with minimal labor. And it is good for a candidate who wants to remove fatty area locally. I think we will have more demands of this area.” Jeffry B. Schafer M.D., New Image Cosmetic Surgery, San Diego, U.S.

“I found out a big difference of downtime between PlasmaLipo and Laserlipo technique. It needs only a sense of injection for the same results with liposuction.” Akihiro Minami M.D., Minami Clinic, Tokyo, Japan

“I’m sure of results by plasma light only in 2 weeks after operation without using any other laser or ultrasound, or suction.” Komuro Yoshikaz M.D., Komuro Beauty Network, Tokyo, Japan
