With liposuction, fat can be removed from the body, but when it’s done with laser technology, the procedure is significantly better. SmartLipo combines liposuction with laser tech, two techniques that have been refined and honed by medical professionals worldwide. The procedure is available for patients who want fat removal from areas like the torso, face, and limbs, and everything from drooping underarms to unsightly love handles can be treated. Stubborn deposits of fat are no problem at all for SmartLipo! The treatment actually destroys fat and then removes it for good.

With regular liposuction, unwanted fat is sucked out from the body surgically, and SmartLipo is similar. The difference, though, is that with SmartLipo, advanced laser technology assists in the procedure. A professional will make a tiny incision in the area a patient wants treated, and then the professional will insert a small tube with a laser fiber into the area. Then, different laser strengths will be used to break down the membranes of fat in the area, and this essentially melts the fat, making it much easier for the liposuction to remove it.

The big benefit of this procedure is that only minimal and minor incisions are done. Also, the procedure can be quicker than regular liposuction because the fat is easier to remove. Overall, SmartLipo is quicker for and easier on the patient, and even more effective than regular liposuction. And because SmartLipo is easier on the patient, recovery time is quicker too!

After a patient gets a SmartLipo treatment, there is some downtime and recovery time required, but this is usually minimal. Any swelling, bruising, or pain will likely be minimal and go away quickly. After about three days, the patient will be able to return to work so long as it doesn’t entail strenuous activities. After about three weeks, the patient will be able to get back to strenuous activities like recreational activities, etc.

With the SmartLipo treatment, once the fat has been removed from the body, it’s gone for good, and results can be maintained by keeping a healthy weight, diet, and lifestyle. Also, there’s another interesting benefit of the treatment: the laser technology used in SmartLipo encourages collagen production in the treated area, and this helps the skin renew itself. As a result, the patient gets healthier, younger, tighter skin in the area! This is definitely complementary to the smaller, more sculpted figure you’ll get after the procedure.
