She is a Poland returned obesity consultant who claims to have introduced instant slimming technology from France. She answers a few questions.

How long does it take?
Dr Anne: A typical Ultrasonic Lipolysis session takes one hour.

So is there any surgery involved?
Ultrasonic Lipolysis is a completely non-surgical procedure. It requires neither cuts nor stitches, no anaesthesia, or injections. All you need to do is lie down and read, watch television or chat. It’s completely painless with no burns, scars or redness. And you can walk out immediately after the treatment and carry on with your daily routine.

How safe is it?
Dr Anne: Ultrasonic Lipolysis is completely safe. Only fat cells are targeted without affecting other organs. There are absolutely no side effects. And you can expect to lose 1 to 3 inches permanently around your abdomen, hips or thighs, whichever area the patient chooses to target.

Is the fat loss permanent?
Dr Anne: Yes, it is. Unlike dieting and exercising which only reduces the size of the fat cells, this procedure actually reduces the number of fat cells in your body. Fat cells do not increase in number after maturity, so the loss is permanent.

Like trimming body fat?
Dr Anne: It’s called ‘Precise Body Contouring’. You can target any area of your body and precisely lose those inches.
