Before and After Treatment Series with Zerona VZ8
How Does It Work?
Zerona works by using its (8) 405nm wavelength lasers to target the fat cells beneath the treatment area, creating a temporary opening within the fat cell. This opening allows the fatty liquids to drain out of the cell and be flushed naturally through your lymphatic system. The Zerona procedure creates an overall body slimming effect that can be used to reduce fat in your: Waist, Pecs, Back, Arms, Thighs, Hips, Ankles, and more!
This is the effect the Zerona Laser has on the fat cells.

Frequently Asked Questions – Zerona VZ8
1. How does it work?
Through clinical studies, it has been demonstrated that the Zerona low-level laser stimulates the fat cell to emulsify the fat within the cell. The liquefied 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. The fat cells are not injured in any way by this process.
2. What can I expect at my appointments?
You can expect 20 minutes to relax, read or do absolutely nothing. The Zerona laser treatment is completely painless. There is no noise or any sensation whatsoever while being treated. At each treatment, you will be met by your technician who will position the laser at the desired areas of the body. He/She will step out for 10 minutes while the front side of your desired body area is treated and will return to reset for the backside of your desired body area for an additional 10 minutes. After you are done, you can get back to your normal activities immediately with no downtime, pain, swelling or any discomfort. This is a symptom-free process except for losing unwanted inches.
3. What happens if I miss an appointment?
It is not recommended that you miss an appointment. Prior to starting the Zerona, it is important that you are committed to the recommended lifestyle protocol.
4. How is it different from liposuction?
Liposuction is an invasive procedure that removes the entire area of fat cells from deposits beneath the skin using a hollow stainless-steel tube (called a cannula) with the assistance of a powerful vacuum. Liposuction can be accomplished either with the use of a general anesthesia, or with IV sedation, or totally by local anesthesia. In contrast, the Zerona laser is a 100% non-invasive treatment that uses a low-level laser applied externally to stimulate the fat cell and emulsify and release fat. There is no use of anesthesia, nor any pain, gels, creams, numbing agents, needles and no downtime.
5. Is there any downtime?
Absolutely ZERO downtime. During the treatment, you will feel no discomfort. No anesthesia will be used, and you can assume normal activities immediately following each treatment.
6. Are there any limitations to what I can do if I am using Zerona?
No. During the treatment period, you can continue your normal activities. It is strongly recommended that you commit to and follow this protocol – stay hydrated (8 to 10 glasses of water a day), continue to eat a healthy diet and exercise (walk at least 30 minutes a day), and abstain from alcohol and caffeine. Alcohol and caffeine interfere with the lymphatic process to metabolize the fat which can decrease your results.
7. What areas of the body can I use the Zerona laser on?
The Zerona laser can be used effectively on essentially every part of the body where localized fat deposits exist that are resistant to diet and exercise. Most clients start with treating the waist, hips and thighs which can all be targeted in 1 treatment. Other areas include upper arms, bra-line fat, inner knees, back fat, and buttocks.
8. Is it covered by insurance?
No, the Zerona program is considered elective and is not covered by insurance.
9. Is it safe?
Yes, there is no risk involved in using the Zerona low-level laser therapy. It is considered a safe alternative to invasive procedures such as tumescent liposuction and lip dissolve and other non-invasive devices like the Accent, VelaShape, and Thermage which rely on heating the tissue and can cause discomfort. None of these have the proven data showing how fat cell size is reduced like the Zerona. The Zerona laser treatment is 100% non-invasive and causes no bruising, scarring, and zero downtime. During the treatment, you will feel no discomfort, no anesthesia will be used, and you can assume normal activities immediately following each treatment.
10. Is it safe if I have a medical condition such as diabetes?
Yes, with a few exceptions. If you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant, Zerona laser should not be used. Additionally, if you have a pacemaker or cancer diagnosis this treatment may not be for you. There are no known detrimental risks but potential unknown risks may exist. Zerona may not be as effective on clients with diabetes or thyroid disorders where the metabolic system is potentially impaired. Please consult with your doctor to discuss whether you are a good candidate based on your medical history.
11. Are there any side effects?
No. The treatment process is completely non-invasive and there are absolutely no side effects beyond loss of inches and fat.
12. How long has the Zerona laser been used?
The Zerona has been used in studies since 2008 and has been used by physicians in practice since early 2009. The same Erchonia Low Level Laser technology has been used to safely assist with tumescent liposuction since 2001 and was established as a proven method to release fat cells immediately prior to liposuction surgery. Low level lasers have been in use for over 40 years for treatment of many different conditions such as chronic pain, wound healing, and many other orthopedic conditions.
13. Is it effective
Yes, with the Zerona treatment and by following the recommended guidelines for success, you can expect to experience a combined loss of 3 to 9 inches from your waist, hips, and thighs, and a reduction in clothes size. Additionally, early clients have noticed an improvement in the appearance of cellulite.
14. How long do results last?
By maintaining a healthy diet and exercise you can expect long-term results. The Zerona VZ8 Program is especially ideal for 2 types of people:
- Those that are already following a healthy diet and lifestyle and want to remove localized pockets of fat.
- Those who want to use the Zerona Program to “jump start” their slimming efforts as motivation for maintaining a healthier and slimmer lifestyle.
15. Can I do the procedure multiple times? And how soon after my last treatment can I do a second treatment?
Yes, with additional treatments you can expect to see improved results. You can start an additional series of Zerona treatments immediately following your last treatment. Treatments can occur once or twice weekly.
16. How soon after pregnancy can I do the Zerona Program?
It is recommended that you wait until after your last postpartum visit with your doctor (usually 6 weeks after birth) to begin the Zerona Program. It is not recommended if you are breastfeeding.
17. How long does it take to begin seeing results?
Some can see results after only a few treatment sessions, as their clothes fit more loosely. Many actually see the difference after 4 to 6 sessions. Family and friends often notice the difference, too, during the program.
18. Is everyone a good candidate for the Zerona VZ8 Program?
Most are good candidates. Even people who are not overweight can lose inches. Be sure to discuss your health background with your physician and ask any questions about your particular areas of concern.
