Of particular interest to the participants was the aforementioned Erchonia laser. It is a laser with low-level (or cold) output with no thermal effect which will destroy tissues. It is purported to actually emulsify fat tissues. When used just prior to liposuction, it supposedly makes the removal of fatty tissues during liposuction significantly easier and quicker. Clinical trials showed that patients have less pain immediately following surgery. More fat can be removed per minute using the Erchonia laser, which means shorter time for doing the liposuction. No complications such as burning of tissues, seromas or other side effects were reported in the clinical trial.
