Achieving major weight loss is a huge accomplishment for anyone, though it is sometimes followed by frustration when stubborn fat on certain areas just won't go away. For those who experience this problem, LaserSculpt may be the answer.
Dr. Steven Victor, offers LaserSculpt (also known as "Laser Lipolysis") as an innovative alternative to the traditional liposuction surgery. LaserSculpt is best-suited for patients in good physical health, who are simply looking to improve their own body shape. LaserSculpt is an FDA-approved cosmetic procedure, designed to remove targeted areas of fat from the body. The procedure targets the areas of fat on the body that are usually resistant to diet and exercise.
During treatment, Dr. Victor uses two different lasers, to guarantee patients a minimally-invasive treatment. One of the lasers used, the SmartLipo MPX Laser by Cynosure, emits two different wavelengths to shape the body and tighten the skin in a single process. This laser also helps reduce the amount of bleeding or bruising which can occur during treatment, giving the patient a much faster recovery time. The second laser is the Lipotherme laser by Osyris, which is used for removing stubborn, problem areas of fat, firming the skin and making the body more slender.
Dr. Victor explains that traditional liposuction is a far more invasive, and risky, procedure than LaserSculpt. LaserSculpt is performed under local anesthesia, in the doctor's office, and is usually not considered painful. The procedure is done in as little as 15 minutes, though the time of the procedure will depend on the size of the area being treated. Incisions are very small, so no stitches are required with the procedure.
Dr. Victor adds that LaserSculpt gives patients comparable results to liposuction, but without the long recovery period, scarring, or serious side-effects. Most patients are usually able to return to their normal activities by the very next day.
Dr. Victor works closely with each of his patients, ensuring that they receive the best care possible, both before and after treatment.

He continues to offer innovative cosmetic and rejuvenation treatments from injectables, lasers and peels to LaserSculpt -a laser assisted type of Liposuction which melts fat via a tiny laser that goes under the skin and also provides tightening and toning, unlike traditional liposuction. Most recently and most notably, Dr. Victor has developed a state-of-the-art laboratory and a patented, proprietary technology for the efficient and reproducible separation of stromal vascular fraction cells (branded IntelliCell™) containing Mesenchymal Stem Cells. The stromal vascular fraction is then used autologously, (donor and recipient are the same) by a physician to restore function by enabling the body to repair, replace, and regenerate damaged, aging or diseased cells, tissue and organs. Dr. Victor offers his patients this therapy to attenuate a multitude of the skin's signs of aging including firming and volume filling.
