Strawberry lipo Atlanta at Taylor Medical Group uses cold red laser technology to shrink fat cells and reduce inches in targeted areas — without surgery, injections, or recovery time. Dr. Ava Bell-Taylor and Dr. Eldred Taylor offer this treatment for patients who want visible fat reduction without the risks and downtime of traditional liposuction.

Strawberry lipo is a non-invasive fat reduction treatment that uses cold red laser light to shrink fat cells and release their contents — reducing the size of the cell and the inches of the treated area — without cutting, injecting, or removing anything from the body.
Unlike traditional liposuction, which physically removes fat cells through suction, strawberry lipo works by creating temporary pores in the fat cell membrane. The fat inside — water, glycerol, and fatty acids — leaks out and gets processed by the lymphatic system. The fat cell shrinks. Surrounding tissue, including blood vessels, nerves, and skin, is not affected.
The treatment is completely pain-free. Most patients feel only a mild warmth from the laser paddles during the session. There is no downtime — you return to normal activity right after.
During treatment, paddles are placed against the skin over the target area. The cold red laser passes through the skin and into the fat tissue beneath. Inside each fat cell, the laser stimulates an enzyme in the mitochondria that regulates cellular metabolism. This triggers a boost in energy production, which causes the fat cell membrane to become temporarily permeable.
Once the membrane opens up, the fat cell releases its contents — fatty acids, glycerol, and water — through the pores. The lymphatic system then picks up and removes these contents from the body. The fat cell loses its round shape, shrinks, and stays small even after the pores heal.
Because the released fat is processed as energy, exercise after each session matters. A 20 to 30 minute walk or light cardio session helps the body burn the released fatty acids before they are reabsorbed. Avoiding high-fat meals before and after treatment supports the same goal.
Each treatment session covers one area — defined as a distinct fat deposit zone. Common areas include:
Abdomen
Upper or lower abdomen treated as one area
Arms
Upper arms — both treated together as one area
Thighs
Inner or outer thighs as one area
Back
Upper or lower back fat deposits
Hips and Flanks
Love handles and hip fat
Any Area
Any area with localized fat you want contoured
More than one area can be treated in the same visit. When treating multiple areas, additional cardio after the session helps the body process the higher volume of released fat.
The primary result patients come in for is inch loss — a measurable reduction in the circumference of the treated area. Beyond that, most patients also notice improvements in skin texture and a reduction in the appearance of cellulite, as the laser stimulates collagen and the lymphatic drainage improves tissue quality beneath the skin.
Because no fat cells are destroyed or removed, the body is not permanently altered. The fat cells remain — they are simply smaller. Maintaining results requires healthy eating, regular exercise, and follow-up treatments as needed.
For patients looking for laser lipo Atlanta without surgery or downtime, strawberry lipo pairs well with our Smooth Wave cellulite treatment and mesotherapy — addressing fat reduction, cellulite texture, and connective tissue repair together in the same area.
We recommend a package of eight treatments — one to two sessions per week over four weeks. This schedule gives the body time to process the released fat between sessions while keeping treatment momentum going. Patients who want to continue after their first package should take a two-week break before starting a second round.
Each session takes about 20 to 30 minutes per area. No preparation is required and there is no recovery time after. You can schedule a session on your lunch break and go straight back to work.
After each treatment:
✓ Do 20–30 minutes of light cardio to help your body burn the released fat
✓ Drink plenty of water to support lymphatic drainage
✗ Avoid high-fat meals two hours before and after your session
✗ Avoid alcohol for 24 hours after treatment
Whether you found us searching for strawberry lipo near me or came referred by another patient, your first visit starts with a consultation where Dr. Ava Bell-Taylor or Dr. Eldred Taylor reviews your areas of concern, takes baseline measurements, and confirms this treatment fits your goals. Measurements are tracked throughout your package so you can see objective inch loss over time — not just how you feel, but actual numbers.
During each session, paddles are secured to the target area and the laser runs for the session duration. You may feel mild warmth. Many patients read or use their phone during treatment. Afterward, a short lymphatic massage helps support drainage, and then you are free to leave.
Most patients see measurable inch loss within the first two to three sessions — making strawberry laser lipo Atlanta one of the fastest non-surgical fat reduction options available. Results build progressively across the full package. How much reduction you see depends on the area being treated, your body composition, how consistently you follow the post-session guidelines, and your metabolism. Your provider will give you a realistic picture at your consultation.
Is strawberry lipo the same as traditional liposuction?
No. Traditional liposuction is a surgical procedure that physically removes fat cells under anesthesia. Strawberry lipo is non-invasive — it shrinks fat cells using laser light rather than removing them. There is no surgery, no anesthesia, and no recovery time.
How many inches can I expect to lose?
Results vary by patient. Most people lose measurable inches over a full package of eight sessions. The amount depends on the area treated, your body composition, how closely you follow the post-treatment exercise guidelines, and your metabolism. Your provider tracks measurements at each visit so progress is objective.
Will the fat come back?
The fat cells are not destroyed — they are shrunk. If you gain weight after treatment, those cells can refill. Keeping results long term requires the same things that keep weight in check — consistent exercise and a healthy diet.
Yes. The cold low-level laser does not heat or damage surrounding tissue. Blood vessels, nerves, and skin cells are unaffected by the procedure. No complications are expected and there is no downtime.
Can I combine strawberry lipo with other treatments?
Yes — and many patients do. Strawberry lipo reduces the fat volume in the treated area. Our Smooth Wave acoustic shockwave treatment addresses the connective tissue texture and cellulite. Together they give better results than either treatment alone.
The best candidates for strawberry lipo are adults who are at or close to their goal weight and want to address specific areas of stubborn fat. These are typically areas that stay resistant despite regular exercise and a clean diet — the lower abdomen, upper arms, inner thighs, or lower back, for example.
Because the treatment relies on your lymphatic system to clear the released fat, patients who exercise regularly get better results. If you are sedentary, the treatment will still work — but committing to post-session cardio makes a real difference in how much you see.
Strawberry lipo Atlanta works well as part of a broader body composition plan. Patients who combine it with mesotherapy for targeted nutrient delivery and IV glutathione for detoxification see the best skin quality and inch loss results. For patients also dealing with cellulite in the same areas, adding Smooth Wave acoustic shockwave therapy to the protocol addresses both the fat layer and the connective tissue texture at the same time.
Strawberry lipo is not suitable for patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding. It is also not the right choice if you have a pacemaker or are undergoing active cancer treatment. If you are unsure whether you are a candidate, your consultation will answer that question before any treatment begins.
Yes. The cold red laser does not heat tissue or affect blood vessels, nerves, or skin cells. It is not ablative. The laser interacts only with fat cell mitochondria through a specific light wavelength — everything else is unaffected.
There is no bruising, no swelling, and no downtime. Nothing is cut, frozen, or destroyed. The fat cell membrane opens temporarily, your lymphatic system clears the released fat, and the membrane heals again. Clinical studies show no adverse events across large patient groups treated with this technology.
