Dr. Darm Slimlipo brochure
Dr. Darm of Aesthetic Medicine in Portland, Oregon pioneered his trademark procedure – the Lipolift – for the treatment of unwanted fat and cellulite. Lipolift III, known as the Laser Lipolysis (laser-assisted liposuction) offers a minimally invasive body sculpting solution that safely "melts" fat away with less pain, less downtime and consistent aesthetic results. The laser is slipped through a very small hole in the skin and passed back and forth while it slowly dissolves the fat and destroys the fat cells. The melted fat is then gently sucked out through a small cannula. Treatment areas include abdomen, flanks, back, arms, neck, and thighs.
The SlimLipo Body Sculpting Laser from Palomar is FDA cleared for laser-assisted lipolysis and it is the first system optimized specifically for this application.

As we all know, lipo has never been
a skin tightening operation, but
SlimLipo™ has opened up an entirely
new market. Patients can now be “ With experience performing 4000 lipo procedures,
I was convinced by SlimLipo™ from my first case. It was
a patient who had been previously liposuctioned. With
SlimLipo™ my work effort was minimal and the patient

SLiMLipo™ paTienT BenefiTS:
• Skin tightening—through laser-assisted lipolysis
• Smoother skin—with less contour deformities
• Faster healing—smaller incisions mean less bruising, pain,
blood loss and swelling
• Less downtime—many patients can go to work the same day
Sophisticated consumers are becoming more educated on the benefits
of advanced, minimally-invasive procedures. Men and women want
to look better and be thinner, without the sizable tell-tale bruises that
scream “I’ve had work done!”
SlimLipo™ procedures put the power of well-tolerated treatments
in your hands.
“ SlimLipo™ has transformed my
lipo practice. My patients are
demanding these type of procedures.
Since there’s virtually no bruising “ The most important benefit for
me is the absence of contour
deformities—the skin remains

expand your treatment offerings with a laser-assisted lipolysis device that goes
beyond traditional liposuction and non-optimized 1064 nm and 1320 nm wavelengths.
“ As an active veteran plastic surgeon I have never been more impressed
with technical innovations than with SlimLipo™. The results have been
so impressive with this new technology that dozens of patients have
scheduled SlimLipo™ procedures. It is remarkable that the majority

of patients experience very little bruising, pain or interference with
activities. I have had to expand my surgery schedule to accommodate where I’m working.
these new and grateful patients. –Richard Noodleman, MD
– Lewis Obi, MD
SLiMLipo™ phySician BenefiTS:
• Less physician fatigue—minimal amount of effort to move SlimLipo™ laser
tip through treatment areas; easily moves through fibrous tissue
• Treat patients not normally treated with traditional liposuction—contour
deformities and smaller treatment areas are easily addressed
• Good visualization of the treatment tip—aiming beam shows where you are
• Speed—significantly faster than competing systems
With Palomar’s SlimLipo™, you can treat both visible and tactile contour deformities
caused by other liposuction methods, with faster treatment than other laser-
assisted lipolysis systems. The benefit is derived from the fat and dermal selective
dual wavelengths that underscore the science behind the nameplate.
“ One of the patients I did last Friday,
I saw in follow-up yesterday. To say
she looked fantastic would be an “ I was considering giving up lipo after
10 years due to the strain it caused my

After working with all of the currently available wavelengths for laser-assisted lipolysis,
Palomar is the company that has best addressed this by developing technology that fits
the science. Using optimized wavelengths to specifically target both lipids and dermis and
