What is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a procedure used to remove fat cells between the skin and muscle using a stainless steel tube called a cannula with a powerful suctioning device.  There are many different types of Liposuction that vary according to the anesthesia used, the technique and sometimes the instruments used in the process.  This website discusses all of the available options for Liposuction and the certain risks and benefits of each type.  In addition, we have a database of doctors available to search in your area.

LIPOSUCTION – THE SMART WAY

SmartLipo is the first laser assisted Liposuction procedure which provides a safer and more effective method from traditional Liposuction. Like Tumescent Liposuction it is also is much less expensive than the traditional type.

Similar again to Tumescent Liposuction a cannula is inserted into a small incision but instead uses a laser to liquefy the fat cells and drain them way.  This Liposuction type is less invasive and typically accounts for less bruising by using the laser as a visual guide to maneuver through the fat cells for sculpting of a particular area.  The laser is also used to thicken the blood vessels for less bleeding and swelling during this derivative of Liposuction In addition a hollow cannula like that in Tumescent Liposuction is used to suction out the fat cells and in turn speed the recovery process. By liquefying the fat cells the surgeon is able to be less aggressive causing less damage to the surrounding tissue in this smart Liposuction procedure. The overall benefits to the patient are many from less blood loss, less bruising, less post operative pain and a quicker recovery. This procedure has surely put the smart in Liposuction.

If you’re seeking a cutting-edge, highly effective method to significantly improve the safety and efficiency of the many Liposuction surgical techniques, then laser technology is definitely the technique you’ll want to consider. Routinely used in dental procedures, lasik eye surgery, reconstructive work and cosmetic procedures—including Liposuction—laser technology is what sets SmartLipo apart from its competition.

The word “laser” is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. Precise and safe, today’s medical-grade lasers work by creating a powerful light beam that is adjusted to a specific frequency range.
