What Is Smart Lipo?
Smartlipo ™ is a new less invasive form of liposuction that uses a laser to liquefy unwanted fat on the waist, face, thighs, arms, or breasts. The laser’s energy is applied directly to the fat cells, causing them to rupture so they can more easily be removed. Treatments with the Smartlipo system generally result in less swelling and bleeding as compared to traditional liposuction methods and can usually be performed in one 45-minute session. Repeat touch ups are required less often than with traditional liposuction.

How Is SmartLipo Performed?
During SmartLipo, the area to be treated is infused with a saline solution containing a local anesthetic. A very small incision is then made in the skin. A very small cannula (tube) containing the laser fiber is inserted into the fatty layers. The small laser fiber delivers energy directly to the fat cells, causing them to rupture so they can be more easily removed.
SmartLipo is performed in an office setting and hospitalization is not required.
What Happens After The Procedure?
The local anesthesia fluid infused into the fatty tissue helps to keep the area numb for 18 to 24 hours following surgery. This greatly minimizes postoperative pain. After SmartLipo, patients are usually alert and able to function without nausea, or the “washed out” feeling associated with general anesthesia.
The SmartLipo laser causes small blood vessels to coagulate immediately on contact, resulting in less swelling and bruising and faster healing. Most people return to work and normal activities within two days of their SmartLipo procedure. Compression garments are typically worn for 2 weeks after SmartLipo as compared to 6 weeks for traditional liposuction.
