Title: Does Lipo Firm Pro actually make fat disappear?
Post by: nudephil on 16/01/2020 16:05:12

Lara got in touch with this:

I'm wondering about the science behind the Lipo Firm Pro. From what I can see they are suggesting that heat plus pressure, via the Lipo Firm Pro machine, can actually make the fat cells disappear via lymphatic drainage. Is this correct and is it actually dangerous for people to do this? I'm also asking as a Type 1 diabetic, who when enquiring was told this wouldn't be safe...which makes me wonder if it's safe for anyone?

Can anyone help her?

Any of us can help her by saying "go and ask your doctor".
My personal best guess is that, if this technique actually worked I would have heard about in news headlines, rather than adverts.
