SUBSTANTIAL REDUCTION IN
LOCALISED FAT
The problem of localized fat in our country is a problem that concerns a large number of women and men.
In women, it usually occurs in the buttocks and thighs, while in men it occurs in the abdominal area. Excessive accumulation of fat is created in these areas, which tends to “persist”, i.e. we can’t make it disappear.
The creation of localized fat is largely attributed to body type and hereditary predisposition. However, there are other factors that aggravate the problem, such as improper diet, sedentary lifestyle, reduced physical activity, etc.
The body, instead of reconstructing and “burning” the fat, sends it to be stored in the fat cells. Gradually, fat accumulates, the elasticity of the connective tissue decreases, and the skin develops an “orange peel” appearance.
Diet and exercise may not solve the problem of localized fat, but they contribute positively to both a more comprehensive treatment and better health.
LOCALIZED-FAT: OUR APPROACH
At VF Laser Clinics, treatments to reduce or eliminate localized fat are based on individual characteristics in combination with the type of localized fat, which is why they are completely personalized.
INDIVIDUAL CHARACTERISTICS:
Doctors of various specialties analyze the unique individual characteristics of the patient, which concern:
– Medical history
– Physical characteristics
– Eating habits
– Metabolic rate
– Lifestyle (exercise, sedentary lifestyle, etc.)
THE 4 TYPES OF LOCALISED FAT:
“Pear” type: It is the most persistent type of localized fat, in terms of treatment. Localized fat occurs in the wider area of the abdomen, namely the buttocks and thighs. The body type is usually slender, with a relatively narrow sternum, and buttocks wider than the shoulders. According to research, this particular body type characterizes a large number of women not only in our country, but also in the Mediterranean in general.
“Apple” type: Localized fat occurs in the wider area of the abdomen. The body type is characterized by thin legs, flat buttocks and a relatively round and broad torso. Research has shown that local fat in this area is associated with the possible occurrence of health problems (hypertension, cardiovascular disease, etc.).
“Hourglass” type: Localized fat appears in the hip and chest area. The body type is characterized by a slim waist combined with relatively broad shoulders and hips, as well as a bold backside.
“Tube” type: Localized fat can occur in various areas, but at low levels. The body type is characterized by thin legs and arms, and a torso that looks like a one-piece, i.e. without a prominent waist.
LOCALISED FAT TREATMENTS
At VF Laser Clinics we take into account the individual characteristics of each patient and the specific type of his/her localized fat. Thus, our protocol is based on one or more of the following treatments:
CRYOLIPOLYSIS 4D SCULPTING
It is probably the best non-invasive method for the treatment of localized fat. Through a special machine, the problematic area is cooled in a targeted manner, resulting in the death and elimination of fat cells. Fat cells are eliminated from the body through the lymphatic system.

ULTHERA™ BODY
It is a completely new method that battles cellulite and the appearance of orange peel, enhances firming, and gives tone and vitality to the skin. The results are extremely spectacular, thanks to the new ULTHERA™ system, the first system based on the studied and tested Macro and Micro Focused Ultrasound MMFU technology. Deep thermal stimulation is achieved, which results in increased blood circulation and metabolism, enhancing lymphatic drainage, stimulating fibroblasts, and activating the production of new (endogenous) collagen.

LPG ULTRA LIPOMASSAGE
It is an excellent non-invasive method, which can be applied to any area with localized fat. We apply to the problem areas a special device that sucks and compresses the skin. Through these movements, we activate the vascular and lymphatic circulation, reduce the volume of fat cells, redistribute fat in a balancing way, and contribute to the production of collagen and elastin fibers.

LIPOLYSIS MESOTHERAPY
It is an effective medical method for areas such as the buttocks, thighs, and abdomen. The treatment is injectable, and is based on the activation of lipolysis through the injection of specific substances into the subcutaneous tissue, such as caffeine, L-carnitine, etc.

SMART LIPO ™ LASER LIPOSUCTION
In cases where the problem is particularly noticeable and persistent, the method of Laser liposuction is recommended. It is a minimally invasive method, based on the combination of liposuction and laser. With the help of a sophisticated laser machine, we dissolve the fat in the problematic area, which is then suctioned through the liposuction procedure.
