Many features set SmartLipo apart from traditional liposuction such as length of visits, comfort, recovery time, and reduced scarring and bruising. Traditional liposuction requires about seven days of down time post-procedure, general anesthesia, additional surgical procedures to touch up what the liposuction cannot achieve, stitches, and a six week compression garment.

SmartLipo, on the other hand, uses local anesthesia, small lasers and cannulas for fat removal, leaves little to no scarring and requires no stitches, only two days of down time and only two weeks for compression garments.

The Smartlipo laser also coagulates tissue, resulting in skin tightening. The laser causes small blood vessels to coagulate immediately, resulting in less bleeding, swelling, and bruising than conventional liposuction. Smartlipo can be used to treat most problem areas, including the abdomen, love handles, neck, back, thighs, and arms.

SmartLipo is not for everyone and only a discussion with a qualified physician will enable you to decide whether you want to have SmartLipo performed.
