How does Zerona Laser work?
This is a fantastic question. This explanation will be the layman’s explanation. For the technical explanation on how the Zerona Laser work, you’ll want to visit my website.
To best understand how the Zerona Laser works, let me talk first about low level energy laser technology and how it works.
The laser produces photons. These photons go to the cells of the body at certain frequencies as set by the laser. It has been found that different tissues/cells respond differently to different frequencies. For example, the frequency that I program one laser to help a person with muscle spasming/guarding as a result of a sports injury or whiplash or major surgery causes the muscles to relax. That protocol is for decreasing pain and reduce muscle spasming. The photons at that setting do not affect the fat cells. Once I select a hertz setting to target the fat cells, the muscle cells will not respond to the photons. So, it is a completely different setting to help you lose inches of fat.
When waving a laser over my patients shoulder/neck to rid them of pain, they used to joke with me about waving a magic wand over them to magically get rid of fat too… well science has caught up! What the Zerona Laser does is almost like magic!
The Zerona Laser has a frequency that will cause the fat cells of the targeted area to do two things.
The first effect of the Zerona Laser is causing the fat inside of the cell to liquefy. Basically the fat breaks down into its component parts. Just like if your body needed more energy (because you were exercising for a long period of time), the fat breaks down inside of the cell so that the component parts for the fat molecule can be used for energy. The Laser does this same thing, but not with the goal of being used for energy.
The second effect of the Zerona Laser is that it causes the cell membrane of the fat cell to become temporarily porous. This allows the fat that was liquefied to now easily leave the cell. It is here, between the cells (interstitial space), that the liquefied fat will accumulate.
Now that the liquefied fat is out of the cell, we want to make sure that the fat does not go back into the cell and we want to make sure that we get it out of the interstitial space and out of the body. That’s where my program comes in, which is a different conversation.
There is no damage to the cell membrane and after 48 hours the pores close up. This is why the Zerona Laser and my program is so safe and effective – it uses natural process of the body to accomplish your desired goals. There is no down time like surgery. There is no scaring. There is no strenuous exercise. There are no significant diet modifications. And you are not taking a ton of pills.

Maria (im sorry i didnt get your last name),
First off, your welcome! Secondly, 3 inches is great… and that was only your waist. typically we will target the waist, hips, and thighs; biggest reductions at your waist and hips. Keep up the great work!

This technology sounds like Star Trek. I think it is a great invention and it fits with the way I think. Be healthy and look good. Do many men get this done? I have about 2-3 inches of extra fat on top of my abs and some handles of love too. Can you target these areas specifically?
Hello Philip,
Yes, the Zerona Laser can target specific areas. And yes, men do have this done, though… women by far are the more frequent patients. If you are working out and eating right you’d probably do exceptionally well. In fact its patient like you that have the best before and after pictures.

Hi, interesting post. I have been pondering this topic,so thanks for sharing. I will definitely be subscribing to your posts.
Can someone with a 150lb over weight use this? Or is it just for people who jus have a little to lose? Thanks
Dear Josh,
Yes it can and will work. However, to lose the 150 lbs of excess weight, you’ll require more than the Zerona laser. Remember, Zerona research shows an average reduction in circumference of 3.5 inches (combined to the waist /hip/thighs) over only 2 weeks. In order to lose that amount of weight, you’ll require significant healthy lifestyle changes… or… surgery and then life style changes to support that surgery.

Hi,
Can Zerona laser be used to target excess fat in the chest area? Also by targeting one specific area, will this have an ripple affect and reduce fat in other areas also?
Thanks
Rajan
Rajan,
Yes, Zerona can be used to target the chest area. We dont have enough data to say that Zerona will produce any “Ripple affect” and that it will “reduce fat in other areas also”. Nutrition programs that I and few other doctors recommend will help reduce fat in the other areas.

How is the fat eliminated from the body? Through the liver or blood?
Dear Coco,
Great question, common concern. Short answer = liver. Because the lymphatic system gathers the fat, it is then carried to the liver to be processed, and then eliminated through the digestive system.
The idea of fat floating though the blood vessels is a scary one, thankfully not an issue here.

I love the zerona laser, I have lost 3 inches in my waist. It is so easy,I know i have to do my part in eating healthy and exercise, but I’am losing fat that would take much longer to lose if i wasn’t doing this program. Thank you Dr. Don.
