Some of us diet. Some of us work out at the gym like maniacs. Yet there’s the stubborn tummy fat that we can’t seem to get rid off, no matter how hard we try. As a last resort, we turn to slimming treatments. However, treatments such as liposuction largely either require some form of invasive procedure or would induce side effects.
With the new i-Lipo Treatment, both our worries and stubborn fats can be eliminated through a quick and painless procedure. Upon hearing the benefits of this treatment, I decided to give it a shot at The Aesthetics Clinic. After all, who doesn’t want to lose that extra inch of burger fat off the hips?
What is i-Lipo
i-Lipo is a revolutionary new laser slimming device for fat reduction and body contouring. Using laser technology, chemical signals penetrate the skin and break down fat cell membranes, releasing the oil stored within the cell. The oil is subsequently expelled through perspiration during exercise, urination or stools.

A typical i-Lipo programme is targeted at a specific body part such as the abdomen, arms or thighs. The entire programme consists of eight sessions (S$2,400) within a one-month period. In each week, there are two sessions, lasting 45 minutes.
During the treatment, eight pads are secured to the targeted body part. The entire process is painless and very comfortable. In fact, I dozed off multiple times during the treatment.
Unlike fat freezing which is extremely targeted, i-Lipo covers a larger surface area. My treatment was targeted at the abdomen area, which includes both the upper, lower and middle abdomen. For the wider coverage (including the love handles at the back) and lower price paid, i-Lipo is definitely more worthwhile than other forms of slimming treatments I have came across, such as the more expensive fat freezing method.
The Results
I was advised by the doctor that no visible results can be observed from a single session. Instead, my tummy will be flabbier after one session of i-Lipo, due to the breaking down of fat cells membrane. Indeed, I noticed that my waist area became looser (which did not seem desirable at first sight). However, I was told that my tummy area would become taut again with any form of cardiovascular exercise within 24 hours.
What I like about the i-Lipo treatment is the customisation of programme to each patient’s needs – based on their desired weight and ultimate goal. The i-Lipo treatment comes with a weight-management and dietary consultation and lifestyle change is required to achieve the optimal result. Most importantly, there are no side effects at all.
