video recording of a laser lipolysis procedure inside the submentum. conventional and infrared video recordings are performed simultaneously. Parameters used during the procedure were the following: left side; 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser, power: 6W, CW, back and forth motion: 100 mm/s. right side: 980 nm diode laser, power: 6W, CW, back and forth motion: 100 mm/s

video recording of a laser lipolysis procedure inside the submentum. infrared video recording (right) and movie obtained by numerical simulation using the same laser parameters (left) Parameters used during the procedure were the following: 980 nm diode laser, power: 6W, CW, back and forth motion: 100 mm/s. Mathematical modeling of surface temperature appears to be similar to surface temperature recorded during laser lipolysis of the submentum.
