Sometimes, all the diet and exercise in the world can still leave you with parts of your body that hold too much fat. But, liposuction might seem like an extreme solution, and many of us will avoid surgery and the attendant downtime if we can help it. If this is the case, then SmartLipo™ LaserBodySculpting might be right for you. This revolutionary, minimally invasive procedure does something no fitness routine in the world can: permanently destroy fat cells. Since you have only a finite number of fat cells, no new ones are regenerated, and you can finally sculpt those problem areas. SmartLipo™ removes unwanted body fat with a laser fiber inserted through a small needle or cannula. The laser disrupts the fat cells which are then gently aspirated from the treated area. The procedure is performed by our highly trained doctors in our soothing Medical Spa environment and does not require general anesthesia. SmartLipo™ FAQs: Who is a good candidate for SmartLipo™? SmartLipo™ is best suited for healthy individuals who eat right, exercise, and generally live a healthy lifestyle, but have trouble areas of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. These areas may include, neck, jawline, arms, 'bra fat', abdomen, 'love handles', knees, inner and outer thighs, and 'saddle bags'. How much downtime will I have? As with any medical procedure the answer will vary from one individual to the next. Most people can expect to return to work in a couple of days following the procedure. Some people are able to return to work the next day, depending on the area treated. Exercise routines can be resumed two weeks after the procedure. Does the SmartLipo™ procedure hurt? Since the SmartLipo™ procedure is performed under local anesthesia, there is very little pain or discomfort involved. You may feel a minor stinging sensation and an impression of tugging at your skin during the procedure. Remember, you are fully awake and may communicate with the doctor which provides another layer of comfort. Can SmartLipo™ work on areas traditional liposuction can't? Yes. Since the aiming beam at the tip of the laser allows the doctor to know exactly where it is at all times, the procedure is very precise. As such, SmartLipo™ is very effective in body areas that are not suitable for traditional liposuction, such as the face, neck, jowls and knees. Does SmartLipo™ produce permanent results? Yes. The results are permanent. The fat cells that are liquefied and either removed or absorbed do not grow back. The number of fat cells your body has was determined by the time you went through puberty. Once you become an adult, your body does not make more fat cells. Advancing age and changing weight will produce changes in the shape of your body, but the benefits of the SmartLipo™ procedure remain. How many areas can be treated at one time? The number of areas that can be treated at one time depends on your height and weight. Our doctor will decide how many areas can be treated safely during your complimentary consultation. What are the main advantages of SmartLipo™? It offers the smoothest, best body-contouring results It entails a brief recovery period It requires no general anesthesia Minimal discomfort is involved It is safer than traditional liposuction It is more affordable than traditional liposuction The results are permanent SmartLipo™…You've got questions…We've got answers!
