Benefits of the Zerona Laser for Targeted Fat Reduction
By Jannae Nichols | Published on January 23, 2011 | 0 Comments
For decades, liposuction was the only way to get rid of stubborn fat deposits in trouble spots like hips, thighs and buttocks. But recent developments in laser technology have allowed medical spas to begin offering highly effective, non-surgical alternatives to liposuction. According to Jannae Nichols of the Jannae Beauty Institute, the most promising non-surgical body contouring treatment involves the use of a groundbreaking laser called Zerona. Nichols, whose spa offers a cutting-edge, integrative body reshaping protocol utilizing the Zerona laser in Newport Beach, says that Zerona allows clients to melt away inches without surgery, without heat, without scars, and without the downtime associated with liposuction.
What It Is
Zerona, Nichols says, is a completely non-invasive laser emulsification device that literally melts fat cells. This device, which has been widely hailed as a breakthrough in non-surgical fat reduction, uses low-level laser technology to empty fat cells of their contents, shrinking them and reducing the circumference of the treated area.
When a client is treated with Zerona at Jannae Beauty Institute, the procedure is performed every other day. The Zerona laser safely penetrates the skin, selectively targets fat cells, and emulsifies their contents. As the fat is emulsified, in Nichols’ protocol, the body is cleansed and the contents of the fat cells are allowed to drain from the body via the body’s own detoxification process.
“I liken it to a glacier in Alaska,” Nichols says. “In the summer, the glacier melts, and in the winter it firms up again, but it never changes its properties – it’s still water. When we melt fat cells, it’s important to drain away and excrete what’s not ‘normal’ fat, so when the cells return to fat a few weeks later, it’s cleaner, leaner and meaner.”
Zerona vs. Liposuction
Nichols describes the effects of Zerona in terms of Chinese medicine. According to the Chinese, she says, we hold life (or generational) memories in three places within the body: the connective tissue, the fat, and the bone marrow. The Zerona laser melts the fat. But within the fat, she says, are toxins that have been present in the body since birth. These trapped toxins are preventing the body from real, meaningful transformation. Liposuction, she says, does nothing to address these toxins.
“When a patient has liposuction,” Nichols explains, “they’re taking out fat cells and therefore altering the chemistry of their generational DNA. So when they re-gain weight, it’s not going to be normal fat, and it’s going to appear in places other than where it was taken out.”
In her own practice, Nichols has seen patients who had liposuction but, several months or a year later, found themselves concerned about remaining cellulite. These dimpled areas aren’t actually cellulite; they’re settled scar tissue from liposuction. Because the Zerona laser doesn’t remove fat cells from the body, only shrinks them, clients don’t suffer any of these ill effects.
Zerona’s Role in Total Body Transformation
For Nichols, Zerona is just one part of helping her clients achieve the bodily transformations they so desire. Her one-of-a-kind body re-shaping protocol incorporates Zerona, Endermologie cellulite reduction, Proelixe Power Plate, infrared sauna, a detoxifying foot soak, and a process designed to help address mental and emotional blocks to becoming your best self.
“We get results five times greater than our competitors,” says Nichols. “It’s a completely unique approach, and Zerona is a key component.”
