Elizabeth VanderVeer, MD, Board Certified Internist and President of VanderVeer Center talked with us about the amazing abilities of ZERONA™ to reduce fat from almost any area on your body. It’s being called a ‘game-changer’ in fat reduction:  With the new ZERONA™ laser, you can lose up to 9 inches in two weeks. Zero pain. Zero downtime. And now ZERONA™ is in Portland at VanderVeer Center.

Dr. VanderVeer explained that through clinical studies it has been demonstrated that the low-level laser stimulates the fat cell to emulsify (liquefy) the fat within the cell. Then the liquified fat moves from inside the cell through a temporary pore formed in the cell membrane to outside the cell where it is in the interstitial space until absorbed by the lymphatic system. This results in millions of fat cells becoming smaller so inches are reduced off the waist, hips and thighs.She herself lost 10 inches.

With a ZERONA™ treatment a patient receives six, 40-minute sessions. At each treatment they position the laser at the desired areas of the body. After you finish the treatment, you can get back to normal activities immediately with absolutely no downtime, nor pain, swelling or any discomfort.

The  treatment can be used effectively on essentially every part of the body where localized fat deposits exist that are resistant to diet and exercise. Most patients start with treating the waist, hips and thighs which can all be targeted in one treatment. Other areas include upper arms, bra-line fat, inner knees, back fat and buttocks.
