SmartLipo or laser liposuction 

SmartLipo or laser liposuction is an innovate technique for minimal invasive liposculpture treatment in a less traumatic manner compared to traditional techniques. No surgery is involved because laser energy liquefies fat rather than suctioning. Thus, the recovery times of SmartLipo / Laserlipolysis are much faster. Patients can resume work after two days, while it is advisable to avoid vigorous activity for 1 – 2 weeks.

  SmartLipo  procedure
 

1. Patient undergoes a medical examination
   
2. While the patient will not be anesthetized, doctors often prescribe a sleeping medication so they will be relaxed and won’t feel pain.
   
3. Before starting, the doctor will inject a local anesthetic in the area to be treated such as the stomach or thigh.
   
4. A paperclip–thin probe, approximately 1 mm in diameter and containing a laser fiber is inserted beneath the skin.
5. The probe is moved back and forth delivering the laser energy to the fat cells melting unwanted fat into liquid so it can easily drain or be absorbed by the body’s lymphatic system. 
6. A Laserlipolysis / SmartLipo procedure takes about 1 hour, depending on the area and the size of the area treated. After, the patient will rest for 1-2 hours to ensure there are no effects from the sleeping medication.
7. The patient requires no further downtime. He or she only requires elastic bandages to compress the skin before leaving the doctor’s clinic.
