On an episode of
Twin Cities Live that aired on October 21, 2009, Skin Rejuvenation Clinic’s ProLipo Plus laser lipolysis (liposuction) procedure was reviewed, along with two other treatments that claim to trim and slim bodies, the Spirulina Wrap and the Zerona laser.
Dr. Jamie Davis, a Mayo trained dermatologist and third party physician reviewed all three treatments during the live segment and Skin Rejuvenation Clinic is proud to announce that their ProLipo Plus procedure received the highest accolades and earned a rave review for its efficacy and results.
Mark Hagberg, MD, who owns and operates Skin Rejuvenation Clinic of Edina with his wife, Elizabeth Hagberg, MD, was shown in segment footage performing an actual laser-assisted liposuction procedure on a patient. The patient was present during the live taping, showing off her initial results just two days after her ProLipo Plus treatment.
Dr. Mark Hagberg said this particular patient’s quick recovery time is not unusual with ProLipo Plus. “Typically there is just one to three days of downtime following ProLipo,” he said. “The patient’s tummy was significantly slimmer than before she had the procedure and will continue to smooth and tighten over the next few months.”

http://twincitieslive.com/article/stories/s1203511.shtml?cat=10698FDA-approved in 2007, this laser liposuction technique does not require a patient to be “put to sleep” with general anesthesia. Instead, tumescent lidocaine is used to fill the area which provides localized numbing, so the patient is kept relaxed, comfortable and awake, able to communicate with the physician. Unlike traditional liposuction, the ProLipo Plus method actually liquefies fat cells before they are removed causing much less trauma to tissue, resulting in decreased bleeding, swelling and bruising. This ultimately leads to a speedier recovery.
A bonus to the ProLipo Plus procedure is the skin tightening effect that follows. ProLipo procedures cause the body to stimulate production of collagen, resulting in smoother and tighter skin in the targeted area, with continued tightening for up to six months.
ProLipo laser liposuction has technology similar to SmartLipo, Smart Lipo, Cool Lipo, SlimLipo and Vaser Liposelection (which Skin Rejuvenation Clinic also offers.)
