What Is Smartlipo™?
Smartlipo™ is a laser-assisted lipolysis system which liquefies and removes fat cells and tightens sagging skin. Treatment is often performed on the thighs, abdomen, hips, arms, or smaller facial areas such as the neck and chin. Smartlipo™ is gaining national attention as a minimally invasive alternative to traditional forms of liposuction. It is suitable for people close to their ideal weight who would like to sculpt small areas of their body. Smartlipo™ is not recommended as a weight loss method or treatment for obesity.
The Smartlipo™ Process
During treatment with Smartlipo™, medical professionals at our locations serving Tulsa, Lakeway, and Round Rock will insert a very small cannula (about 1 to 2 mm wide) into small incisions around the targeted area of fat. The cannula contains a single laser fiber that is directed into the fatty tissue. Moving back and forth, it releases a burst of energy that heats and liquefies the fat cells, without damaging the surrounding nerves or tissue. The fat cells melt away and are easily removed using gentle aspiration.
Benefits of Smartlipo™
Unlike other liposuction techniques used at our practice serving Tulsa area, Smartlipo™ doesn't require general anesthesia; patients are usually given a local anesthetic to numb the target area. Since the laser beam naturally seals the blood vessels, patients experience less bleeding, scarring, and bruising after the procedure. The recovery period is also significantly shorter than with traditional liposuction, as many patients are back to work and their normal routine within a few days! Smartlipo™ also incorporates skin tightening through thermal heating and skin coagulation, making it a good option for people with loose skin who are not good candidates for traditional liposuction.
