You’ve made a decision…it’s time to do something dramatic about your appearance. You’ve been working out hard, eating all the right foods, and you’ve lost some weight. You look in the mirror in frustration. Time and gravity have caused your neck to droop, creating a double chin and sagging jowls. Your stomach only flattens so much and your love handles just won’t budge any further-- you’re at an impasse. PowerLaserLipo™ may be the answer!

In 2001, Dr. Fredric Stern became one of the few cosmetic surgeons in the Puget Sound and Seattle area to offer microcannular, tumescent liposuction, using the smallest instruments available, performed under completely local anesthesia.  With the advent of power-assisted liposuction devices, Dr. Stern then combined the use of microcannulas with the enhanced fat removal capability of the Stars™ power- assisted system.

With the FDA approval of the Erchonia™ low- level laser in 2003, Dr. Stern was the first cosmetic surgeon in the Puget Sound area to perform laser -assisted liposuction using this new, FDA-approved device.    In FDA trials, the Erchonia™ laser demonstrated greater fat removal, less post-op discomfort, less swelling and quicker recovery than traditional liposuction techniques.

As a pioneer in laser liposuction techniques, Dr. Stern and The Stern Center are excited to be the first office in the Pacific Northwest to offer the latest advance in laser liposuction using Erchonia’s new Zerona™ low-level laser.
Now, combining these three advances into one unique liposuction technique, Dr. Stern is the only cosmetic surgeon in the region offering PowerLaserLipo™!  This revolutionary advance in liposuction surgery offers all of the advantages of microcannular tumescent liposuction— small incisions, no sutures, minimal down time— with the enhanced fat removal capabilities of the new Zerona™ low level laser and power-assisted liposuction.
