Fresh from approval by the US health authorities, a new laser application could become the next winning weapon in removing unwanted fat.
Osyris Medical, an American company specializing in tools doctors, has produced LipoControl, a device for laser-assisted lipolysis, the elimination of unwanted fat cells: it is an auxiliary tool that does not avoid the use of the operating room, but allows (unlike the cannula used in liposuction) to 'break down ' targeted groups of fat cells, facilitating the operation and cleaning of the wound.
The 'futuristic' element of the system is represented of a sort of energy map that assists the surgeon in identifying and treating fat cells with extreme precision: the doctor knows exactly the amount of energy released by the laser in a point. It's like watching liposuction from the inside of the body and otherwise from the outside, just to get an idea.
The 'chisel of light' is therefore the most serious candidate among the tools that they will take care of in the near future to sculpt our body, with particular attention to love handles, hips, abdomen, underarm, buttocks, inner thighs and chin: nothing to do with a healthy diet and a bit of physical activity, but if nothing else even those who maintain unsuitable lifestyles will have the opportunity to experience a future far from the blemishes of obesity.
