The present disclosure in various aspects and embodiments provides, inter alia, systems and methods for minimally-invasive lipolysis in a target area by injecting the area with a solution of photo-absorbing nanoparticles and irradiating the injected area with a beam of near infrared (NIR) light. The NIR emission wavelength may in certain embodiments be adapted to excite the nanoparticles to melt fat within the target area; in some embodiments so that the liquefied fat can be aspirated from the target area, or in some embodiments such that aspiration of the liquified fat is not needed. In certain aspects and embodiments the nanoparticles are be gold nanoshells; for example, spherical gold nanoshells.
