Performed by Dr Luca Russo
Advanced minimally invasive laser-emulsification body & face contouring.
LESC® is a next-generation procedure that uses micro-laser-emulsification of adipose tissue combined with targeted contouring of the deep subcutaneous layer. It offers a refined alternative to traditional liposuction by reducing trauma, minimising downtime, and delivering sculpted, natural results.

Laser liposuction is a less invasive alternative to traditional liposuction, using laser energy to gently emulsify fat rather than relying on aggressive suction. It’s ideal for targeting small to medium areas of unwanted fat and loose skin—such as the face, neck, arms, abdomen, and thighs. The treatment offers enhanced recovery with shorter downtime, minimal bruising, and reduced swelling, while allowing for precise body contouring guided by Dr. Luca Russo and tailored to your individual anatomy and lifestyle.
we will assess the target areas (for example under-chin, jawline, inner thighs, love-handles) and reviews skin quality, fat volume, underlying support tissue.
Under local anaesthetic and with comfort protocols in place, a micro-cannula (≈2 mm diameter) is used to insert a fine optical/ultrasound fibre beneath the skin. The fibre emits targeted laser energy to liquefy (emulsify) adipose tissue and heat the connective layers.
Following emulsification, the fluid fat may be gently aspirated or left to be naturally reabsorbed, while the heat contracts adjacent tissue and stimulates collagen remodelling.
Entry points are minimal, usually one or two per zone. You’ll see initial shaping immediately; over 4–12 weeks the new contour settles, skin firms and tissue integrates.
Dr Russo reviews your outcome, checks for symmetry, and recommends complementary treatments (skin-boosters, radio-frequency, HIFU) if required for optimal results.
Face & neck: under-chin, jawline, marionette region
Arms: inner upper arms (“bat wings”)
Abdomen & flanks: small-to-moderate volumes of fat + mild skin laxity
Inner thighs & knees: localised fat deposits with skin support concerns
Buttocks/hips: refining and reshaping rather than a full-blown body-lift
You may be an ideal candidate if:
Traditional liposuction mechanically disrupts and removes fat using large cannulas and suction, often with more bruising and recovery. LESC® uses laser-based emulsification, smaller access points, and focuses on precision with less tissue trauma.
You may not be suitable if:
The treated fat cells are removed or liquified, but ageing and weight fluctuations still impact the area. Maintenance and healthy lifestyle help sustain your result.
