FAQs about Smartlipo
SmartLipo in More Details...
Recent advances in the world of technology have made it possible to easier reduce cellulite and fat on the patients' body. Thanks to the procedure known as SmartLipo (Smart Lipo) or Laser Liposuction as it is more commonly known.
SmartLipo involves the use of special lasers that emit special heat that does not contain heat as we know it. It is similar to radiation that closes wounds as well as important blood vessels without the use of sutures. The blood vessels are closed as the procedure is taking place. This laser method reduces the fat by melting or liquefying the fat that is quickly suctioned up during the same procedure. Rather than dig deep into the patients skin, this is done only through the top layer of skin. Hence, this is the reason behind the fast recovery time.
SmartLipo - treatment for Cellulite
This type of procedure contains less risk to patients as there is no need for undergoing regular surgery that requires a hospital stay. There is less recovery time needed in this type of procedure.
This is not a procedure for those who are severely obese as the results are not instant but are over a period of time. Certain hormones are reactivated when this procedure is done. Hormones that normally would have aided in breaking up these fat cells are strengthened and renewed. This means that they will work harder when the procedure is complete.
Smartlipo History
Smartlipo is making waves all over Europe, Asia, South America, California and Arizona. Approved by the FDA in the fall of 2006, Smartlipo has proven to be one of the safest cosmetic procedures. Complications are extremely rare.
