Are you frustrated trying to lose those last few pounds through exercise and diet? If so, I may have good news for you; you could be an ideal candidate for smart liposuction. Smart liposuction is an alternative to standard liposuction that works incredibly well to remove fat as well as tightening up those problem areas.
Why Is Smart Liposuction Different?
Smart liposuction goes after fat cells with a special type of laser and liquefies them. Any fat that is liquefied and not vacuumed out as part of the liposuction procedure is expelled as waste within a day or two. The lasers are very safe and effective because they can even distinguish between fat cells and other tissues like nerves and blood vessels.
Initially the cosmetic surgeon will inject saline solution into the area to be liposuctioned thus numbing the area and making the blood vessels shrink. After that is done he inserts the laser to melt any fat that is going to be removed. Finally a cannula is inserted and is used to suck out the melted fat.
What Makes A Good Smart Liposuction Candidate?
This type of liposuction is designed for those with a small amount of fat that needs to be removed. Like other liposuctions this is not a weight loss technique. The perfect Smart liposuction candidate should have no more than 10 pounds to be removed to reach their goal weight.
What Body Parts Are Well Suited for Smart Liposuction?
Smart liposuction can be used on any area of the body that traditional liposuction is used. This means that the abdominal area, legs, neck, back, chest, arms and face are all target areas.
What Will Smart Liposuction Cost?
Smart liposuction is similar in cost to standard liposuction. The overall expense will vary based on where in the U.S. you have your liposuction done. Certain body parts like the upper abs are also a bit more costly. Overall you should plan on paying anywhere from $2500 and up to $5000 per body part.
Tell Me The Benefits Of Smart Liposuction
There are several major advantages to smart liposuction. First of all you will usually have better results with smart liposuction because the surgeon uses smaller cannula for the procedure. Using smaller tubes means less discomfort and pain after the surgery and also provides more precision for the surgeon. The increased precision means the surgeon can do a better job sculpting the body part.
There is also decreased swelling, bruising and bleeding with smart liposuction. This is due to the fact that the laser doesn’t just dissolve the fat, it also closes off the blood vessels. This will make recovery and healing much faster when having smart liposuction. Usually smart liposuction takes only 2 days to heal compared with 7 days for normal liposuction. As an added bonus you will usually only wear a compression garment for 2 weeks after the procedure instead of the normal 6 weeks.
Often with normal liposuction you need to have tucks and/or lifts to get rid of the loose skin after the procedure. This is not the case with smart liposuction because the laser also generates heat which has the effect of increasing collagen production in the skin making it tighten naturally, like a drum.
Those who have just small amounts of fat to get rid of will likely find that they are good candidates for smart liposuction. If you have the chance to opt for smart liposuction you should do so as it is an improved technique that provides great results.
