ADIPOSE RESOLVE APPARATUS FOR LOW-POWER LASER

摘要

A lipolysis system comprises a laser applicator that contacts a subject's body surface and provides laser irradiation thereto in communication and cooperation with a laser control device. The laser applicator is controlled to provide low-power laser irradiation to a targeted portion of a subject's body surface for the purpose of liquefying fats in adipose cells in the subcutaneous region underlying the contacted portion of the body surface. A method for liquefying fats in a subject's adipose cells comprises contacting a portion of a subject's body surface with a laser applicator and controllably irradiating a target portion with laser wavelengths for a selected period of time. Laser applicators in one embodiment comprise low-power laser diodes having power outputs in the range of 10 mW to 100 mW with light waves in the range of 635 nm to 680 nm.
