Liposonix vs Liposuction in Minnesota

Liposonix is an amazing new non-surgical fat reduction device available in Minnesota, and it can reduce fat entirely without invasive surgery and in one easy treatment without down time.  By focusing a high-energy beam of ultrasound down to a point in the fat layer below the skin, the Liposonix system is able to non-invasively destroy targeted subcutaneous fat and deliver uniform and predictable results.

Which one should you choose – Liposonix vs liposuction? This is not a “to be or not to be” question for people in the Minneapolis and St Paul areas. If you are significantly overweight and BMI is more than 30, and you can afford to have at least 3 days down time, and you are looking for a better result with one treatment, you may choose liposuction.  We have every cutting-edge liposuction technology in our Edina office to help you to achieve your goals.

Liposonix is the better option if you have any of the following conditions:

  • You have at least one inch of fat thickness in the target areas, but BMI is below 30. Although one inch does not seem like a lot, many people considering liposuction for specific areas do not have even that much.
  • You don’t want to undergo invasive liposuction surgery.
  • You don’t want even a day of downtime.
  • You are not a good surgical candidate due to medical problems, such as diabetes.

One or two effective treatments with Liposonix in the proper candidates, without surgery at all, may equal liposuction results, and then the argument in favor of Liposonix is quite compelling.  Although Liposonix is very effective in fat reduction, since only a pre-determined thickness of fat is removed with one treatment, results may not be as marked as with one liposuction treatment which does not have such limits.  Therefore, you may consider another treatment after 3-6 months if you are looking for the similar result to liposuction without down time.
