Emerald Laser
FDA market-cleared green laser for full-body fat loss and circumference reduction
Overview
About the Emerald Laser
Emerald Laser is an FDA market-cleared, non-invasive full-body fat loss treatment. Ten 520–542 nm green laser diodes emulsify adipose tissue so it is released into the interstitial space and cleared by the lymphatic system. It is the only device FDA cleared to treat individuals with a BMI up to 40.
- FDA market cleared to treat individuals up to 40 BMI
- No bruising, no swelling, no freezing, no downtime
- Average circumference loss of 5.99 inches
- Results in as little as 2 weeks
Typical applications
- Overall body circumference reduction (stomach, hips, back, thighs, arms)
- Body contouring for higher-BMI patients (BMI up to 40)
- Adjunct to medically supervised weight management
- Non-invasive alternative to liposuction or cryolipolysis
Product description
What the device does
Emerald Laser uses ten 520–542 nanometre green laser diodes to decrease fat in targeted areas of the body. When the lasers target a group of fat cells they penetrate down to the fat cell wall, boring tiny pores into its surface while emulsifying the fat inside the cell. This permits the fats to pass through the pores, where the body's lymphatic system naturally disposes of them.
Unlike liposuction or fat freezing (cryolipolysis), Emerald treatments empty the fat cells but do not destroy them — an important distinction, because when fat cells are killed the body can only store subsequent weight gain in the remaining cells, which can result in disproportionate accumulation elsewhere.
Emerald Laser holds United States device and method patents US 7,947,067 and US 9,149,650.
Mechanism
How it works
Erchonia's patented green low-level laser technology emulsifies adipose tissue, which is then released into the interstitial space. The body removes the fat from the area and transports it through the lymphatic system.
The process occurs gradually over about 2–4 weeks. Because there is no downtime with the Emerald system, patients continue their everyday routines immediately after treatment.
Treatment is a straightforward 30-minute session with no discomfort: the patient lies on their back while the lasers are applied to target areas for approximately 15 minutes, then repeats the process lying face down.
