SlimLipoTM – True Laser Body Sculpting

•Skintightening—through laser-assisted lipolysis

•Smootherskin—with less contour deformities

•Fasterhealing—smaller incisions mean less bruising, pain, blood loss and swelling

•Lessdowntime—many patients can go to work the same day

Sophisticated consumers are becoming more educated on the benefits of advanced, minimally-invasive procedures. Men and women want to look better and be thinner, without the sizable tell-tale bruises that scream “I’ve had work done!”

SlimLipo™ procedures put the power of well-tolerated treatments in your hands.

SLiMLipo™ paTienT BenefiTS:

“”

With experience performing 4000 lipo procedures, I was convinced by SlimLipo™ from my first case. It was a patient who had been previously liposuctioned. With SlimLipo™ my work effort was minimal and the patient was ecstatic with the smoothness of her skin and the lack of bruising. Patients love the results.

– Kimberly Finder, MD

“”

SlimLipo™ has transformed my lipo practice. My patients are demanding these type of procedures. Since there’s virtually no bruising or post-op pain, these patients are often back to work the same day.

–Kenneth Rothaus, MD ”“The most important benefit for

me is the absence of contour deformities—the skin remains smooth with no ripples or dents even in very thin patients.

–Brooke Seckel, MD

“”

As we all know, lipo has never been a skin tightening operation, but SlimLipo™ has opened up an entirely new market. Patients can now be safely treated with SlimLipo™ to not only remove fat but tighten skin.

–Steven Bloch, MD

expand your treatment offerings with a laser-assisted lipolysis device that goes beyond traditional liposuction and non-optimized 1064 nm and 1320 nm wavelengths.

•Lessphysicianfatigue—minimal amount of effort to move SlimLipo™ laser tip through treatment areas; easily moves through fibrous tissue

•Treatpatientsnotnormallytreatedwithtraditionalliposuction—contour deformities and smaller treatment areas are easily addressed

•Goodvisualizationofthetreatmenttip—aiming beam shows where you are

•Speed—significantly faster than competing systems

With Palomar’s SlimLipo™, you can treat both visible and tactile contour deformities caused by other liposuction methods, with faster treatment than other laser- assisted lipolysis systems. The benefit is derived from the fat and dermal selective dual wavelengths that underscore the science behind the nameplate.

SLiMLipo™ phySician BenefiTS:

“”

I was considering giving up lipo after 10 years due to the strain it caused my neck, but with the SlimLipo™ machine there is no fatigue. I no longer have to go home and lay on a heating pad for hours following a lipo case.

–Tiffani Hamilton, MD

“”

One of the patients I did last Friday, I saw in follow-up yesterday. To say she looked fantastic would be an understatement. I am my biggest critic but this result even impressed me.

–Timothy Zelko, MD

“”

SlimLipo™ is easy to master and use. The probe easily moves around corners. Unlike the VASER®, the aiming beam lets me know where I’m working.

–Richard Noodleman, MD

SlimLipoTM Benefits

“”

As an active veteran plastic surgeon I have never been more impressed with technical innovations than with SlimLipo™. The results have been so impressive with this new technology that dozens of patients have scheduled SlimLipo™ procedures. It is remarkable that the majority of patients experience very little bruising, pain or interference with activities. I have had to expand my surgery schedule to accommodate these new and grateful patients.

After working with all of the currently available wavelengths for laser-assisted lipolysis, Palomar is the company that has best addressed this by developing technology that fits the science. Using optimized wavelengths to specifically target both lipids and dermis and combining it with continuous wave delivery for a smooth and efficient dispersion of energy through a specially engineered tip, this technology stands apart from its predecessors.

–Robert Weiss, MD

SlimLipo’s 924 nm wavelength targets fat— it’s an optimal “fat-melting” wavelength.

SLiMLipo’S UniqUe TreaTMenT Tip: DeSigneD for faST anD efficienT “faT MeLTing”

Competing laser systems only heat at their tip. With SlimLipo’s unique tip design, more tissue is affected; the large “lipid liberation zone” surrounding the entire tip is hot enough to “melt” fat in a much broader area.

SlimLipo™ delivers laser energy at 924 nm, 975 nm, as well as dual wavelengths at 924/975 nm for preferential absorption by fat and dermal tissue, respectively. Selective photothermolysis frees the lipids contained in adipose tissue for easy aspiration. The result is less body trauma and significant fat removal and dermal heating. The heating of dermal tissue has been shown to have skin tightening results.

“SlimLipo™ is truly unique. The selective fat melting allows me to treat multiple areas—even larger areas—leaving smooth skin you can see and feel.”

–Jeffry Schafer, MD

“Correction of lipo contour deformities is going to be a huge application for this machine.

–Sean Doherty, MD”

“ ”I have 12 years of lipo experience— SlimLipo™ is the single most important break through I’ve seen!”

–David Kent, MD

Remarkable Resultswith SlimLipoTM

“”

The SlimLipo™ result is dramatic with smooth skin that does not look or feel like other methods of liposuction. It’s worth buying just for the results in the submental area treated under local anesthesia

–Phillip Craft, MD

“ ”I have found SlimLipo™ to have a particular advantage in the upper abdomen, neck, chest and anywhere laxity of skin becomes a problem.

–Steven Bloch, MD

“”

SlimLipo™ is a revolutionary technology which will change plastic surgery–the skin tightening application will replace some body contouring surgical procedures.
