Invasive cosmetic procedures that leave the patients bedridden are not practical in such a fast paced society. This is why SmartLipo truly is the smarter and safer alternative to traditional liposuction. This simple FDA approved procedure is performed in the office as opposed to the operating room, and while being minimally invasive, it is majorly effective. It works by permanently destroying fat cells and at the same time promotes tightening of the skin, improves cellulite, and reduces stretch marks.
This miracle is performed by inserting a small tube called a cannula containing a laser fiber into the skin. Moving the tube while it is under the skin it causes fat cells to burst and melt into a liquid substance, and it emits an energy that stimulates collagen that results in the tightening of the tissue. Traditional liposuction cannot tighten the skin giving SmartLipo another extreme advantage. Unlike dieting and exercise, Smartlipo targets specific trouble areas: hips, thighs, abdomen, arms, face, and more.
Even though the results are dramatic, the SmartLipo procedure is not. It is performed under local anesthesia, results in significantly less bleeding and bruising, and needs no stitches or drains. The recovery period also parallels the simplicity of the procedure. The local anesthesia causes there to be virtually no pain during, and afterward the pain is similar to the common aches and pains of working out that disappear in a matter of days without disrupting normal life, although it is recommended to maintain a low key lifestyle for a day or two following.
Those who qualify for SmartLipo will enjoy the benefits of the procedure as well as the aftermath. Candidates for the procedure are those who have fat areas that diet and exercise are not improving. Many of the patients only need one treatment that generally lasts less than an hour and will be pleasantly noticed immediately. Results can be seen as soon as the SmartLipo procedure is complete, and improvements continue for three to six months after. Even more enticing than these benefits is the fact that the results will last long after the trip to the doctor. The body is equipped with a limited amount of fat cells that expand and contract due to weight fluctuations. Ridding the body of the fat cells also rids it of potential weight gain.
