SmartLipo (laser liposuction) can eliminate areas of unwanted fat and tone your entire body. An FDA-approved procedure, SmartLipo uses a tiny 1 mm laser tip probe that dissolves fat and tightens the skin. There is little to no blood loss, and it is performed under local anesthesia here in our Frederick medical practice. For most areas, you may even return to work the next day.
This laser-assisted lipolysis procedure is performed using a one millimeter cannula (or tube) inserted into the skin. A laser fiber inside of the cannula delivers energy directly to fat cells, causing them to rupture and drain away as liquid. Simultaneously, tissue around the area coagulates, resulting in overall tighter skin tissue.
SmartLipo is ideal for the neck, jaw line, arms, "bra fat," abdomen, "love handles," "saddle bags," inner and outer thighs and knees.
SmartLipo is meant for areas that do not respond to diet or exercise. The perfect candidate is in good health and of normal body weight.
Conventional liposuction is meant to remove greater amounts of fat. However, since this can leave behind unsightly pockets of skin, laser assisted lipolysis is often a perfect complement.
SmartLipo is a minimally invasive procedure which usually requires only local anesthesia. Some light trauma can occur, but you'll be able to return to work in a couple of days and resume exercise after two weeks.
Typically only one treatment is required. Results can be seen within a week, with continued improvement over three to six months. A compression garment may be worn for a short period after treatment, depending on the body area treated.
