Slim Sculpt
Laser Fat Reduction
The Slim Sculpt & Vibra Slim Sculpt system is designed specifically to address fat reduction and inch loss of unwanted fat in targeted areas. Using the Slim Sculpt body contouring system in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle program will allow you to rid your body of fat and keep the unwanted fat off.
Doctors and independent studies have shown that combining diet and lifestyle counseling in combination with treatments have reported inch loss as dramatic as 10+ combined inches using the six-pad system! Individual results will vary depending on the program you choose and the commitment you make.
These devices provide all the efficacy of liposuction without the need for surgery and avoiding surgery related complications, pain and recovery time. It also avoids the lumpy appearance of missed fat cells that swell back up with fat after the liposuction procedure.
The Slim Sculpt is 100% non-invasive, LED & IR technology with no known side effects.
How It Works:
- LED energy safely penetrates the patient’s skin at a specific wavelength (635 nm & 880 nm) targeted for adipose (fat) cells.
- Adipose cells are permeated releasing free fatty acids (FFA’s), water and glycerol. Together these compounds are also known as triglycerides.
- Triglycerides are normally released from fat cells when the body needs energy.
- Once released the glycerol and free fatty acids are used by the body as an energy source.
- Adipose cells “shrink” significantly resulting in inch loss for patients.
- Any type of exercise is recommended soon after a treatment to burn FFA’s within the body and to help stimulate the lymphatic system.
Stored fat in the cells are used by the body as a source of energy to function. When you work out you the body will use the fat in the cells as energy. That is why you lose weight and fat when you work out. Now there is an easier way to lose weight.
Slim Sculpt pads are loaded with LEDs that emit light energy at 635nm to 880 nm wavelengths that are absorbed by fat cells. The light energy causes the fat cells to heat up and begin to release their fatty acid and glycerol contents reducing the size of the fat cells.
Where do the Free Fatty Acids Go?
When the fat cells are heated up the Free Fatty Acid (FFA) leaves the cell and enters the interstitial space (space between organs). FFA are absorbed by the lymphatic system, bound to the albumin, transported via afferent lymph vessels to the sentinel node, broken down via lipase, and dumped into the circulatory system where the debris can then be processed by the liver (Fatty Acid Oxidations).
Some of the Free Fatty Acids are converted triglycerides in the liver and returned to the plasma (blood). The rate of turnover and metabolic disappearance of Fatty Acids from the plasma is known to be extremely rapid as their half-life in the plasma is about one and a half to two and a half minutes. Free Fatty Acids combine with Oxygen to produce energy.
The Free Fatty Acids released from adipose tissue can be utilized anywhere there is energy needed within the body. The ultimate destination of the released Fatty Acid is to the mitochondria (found in the muscles) of the subject’s cells that require energy. The Mitochondria is the powerhouse of every cell.
If you exercise for 10 minutes after a Slim Sculpt the FFA will be burned as energy.
Where does the Glycerol Go?
The liberated Glycerol is not utilized again for triglyceride synthesis, it can diffuse rapidly into the blood and once passed into the blood and circulation it undergoes a dilution process. Glycerol will diffuse widely and rapidly throughout the total body water, disappears from the blood stream and appears in urine. The rate of turnover (and the metabolic disappearance of Glycerol from the plasma) is estimated to be about thirty minutes. Glycerol is rapidly excreted in the urine. After being released from the adipose tissue, Glycerol is passed through the bloodstream for return to the liver for conversion into the useful energy source of Glucose.
What is Slim Sculpt Fat Reduction Technology?
- The Slim Sculpt Fat Reduction Technology is the latest technology on the market today. It is a non-invasive body contouring system used in reducing unwanted fat on the thighs, buttocks, abdomen, back, arms, neck and chin.
- Treatments only take 20 minutes to be completed
- The Slim Sculpt System uses the most diode lights and the most power diodes in easy to apply vinyl-one pads of any system on the market
- The Slim Sculpt System provides both 635 nm and 880 nm wavelengths for optimal treatments
- Slim Sculpt System has a vibrational component that causes the cell to vibrate at high frequencies to enhance lymphatic flow
- Slim Sculpt System is non-invasive, no down time and most importantly it is affordable.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:
Transmission electron microscopic images have demonstrated the formation of transitory pores in adipocyte cell membranes followed by the collapse of adipose cells subsequent to laser irradiation of 635 nm. The objective is to evaluate the application of a 635 nm and 17.5 mW exit power per multiple diode laser for the application of non-invasive body contouring of the waist, hips, and thighs.
STUDY DESIGN/PATIENTS AND METHODS:
Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of a 2-week non-invasive laser treatment conducted from May 2007 to June 2008 across multiple-private practice sites in the United States of America. Sixty-seven volunteers between the ages of 18-65 with a body mass index (BMI) between 25 and 30 kg/m(2) and who satisfied the set inclusion criteria participated. Eight of the 67 subjects did not have circumference measurements recorded at the 2-week post-procedure measurement point. Participants were randomly assigned to receive low-level laser treatments or a matching sham treatment three times per week for 2 weeks. Reduction in the total combined inches of circumference measurements of the waist, hip and bilateral thighs from baseline to the completion of the 2-week procedure administration phase was assessed.
RESULTS:
Participants in the treatment group demonstrated an overall reduction in total circumference across all three sites of -3.51 in. (P < 0.001) compared with control subjects who revealed a -0.684 reduction (P < 0.071745). Test group participants demonstrated a reduction of -0.98 in. (P < 0.0001) across the waist, -1.05 in. (P < 0.01) across the hip, and -0.85 in. (P < 0.01) and -0.65 in. (P < 0.01) across the right and left thighs from baseline to 2 weeks (end of treatment). At 2 weeks post-procedure, test group subjects demonstrated a gain of 0.31 total inches collectively across all three sites.
CONCLUSION:
These data suggest that low-level laser therapy can reduce overall circumference measurements of specifically treated regions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION:
The non-invasive body-contouring segment continues to exhibit uninhibited growth, a trend that has provoked the emergence of numerous body-contouring devices. One particular device, low-level laser therapy at 635 nm (LLLT-635), has exhibited promising clinical results. We performed an independent, physician-led trial to evaluate the utility of LLLT-635 nm for non-invasive body contouring of the waist, hips, and thighs.
METHODS:
Eighty-six participants were retrospectively assessed at an individual clinic in the United States. A multi-head laser device was administered every-other-day for 2 weeks. Each treatment consisted of 20 minutes of anterior and posterior treatment. Patients received concurrent treatment of the waist, hips, and bilateral thighs. Circumferential measurements were evaluated at baseline and one week following the 2-week treatment administration phase.
RESULTS:
Compared with baseline, a statistically significant 2.99 in. (7.59 cm) mean loss was observed at the post-procedure evaluation point (P < 0.0001). When analyzed individually, the waist, hips, and thighs each reported a statistically significant reduction of -1.12, -0.769, and -1.17, respectively. Furthermore, linear regression analysis revealed a weak linear dependence (r = 0.179) between the reported weight and circumference change.
CONCLUSION:
These data further validate the clinical efficacy and safety of LLLT at 635 nm.
