Laser Weight Loss & Nutrition

A ribbon cutting was recently held at Laser Weight Loss & Nutrition, located on 4313 Route 51 North Belle Vernon. Dr. Paulette Sedlak is the area ZERONA Laser Specialist. "I am very excited to introduce ZERONA Cold Laser Fat Reduction with the combination of the nutritional program I developed to reach maximum fat loss!" "If you have tried diet and exercise but still have fat and inches you just can't lose, then it's time for ZERONA", stated Dr. Sedlak.

ZERONA is the only clinically proven, non-invasive body contouring treatment that will have you looking and feeling better in just two weeks. The process has been heavily researched since 1998 and unlike other cosmetic devices that promise fat reduction, ZERONA is the only device available that does not harm the fat cells. The treatment reduces fat and inches, involves zero pain and no downtime.

If you have any questions or would like to schedule a phone consultation, please call Dr. Sedlak at 724-929-3102.
