Laser Lipo and Smart Lipo

By Craig Lipper

Smart lipo is a relatively newer technology. This process is a type of liposuction in which the extra body fat is removed from your body through laser beams. These laser beams are utilized to melt the fatty cells within your body. After melting, the fatty cells exit your body using normal metabolism of your body.

Smart lipo is also widely named as Laser liposuction or laser lipo in short. Smart lipo is actually very different than a usual liposuction surgery since there are no cuts which are made in this surgery. This technique does not involve any kind of local anesthesia as well therefore the cost of this technique is much lower than a normal liposuction surgery.

Smart liposuction has other distinct advantages over a normal liposuction technique in addition to cost and number of incisions. For example, it does not leave any scars on your body because of no incisions. The recovery time is also very less. Patients recover from this surgery in mere hours instead of days. Also, the success rate of smart lipo is much higher than a normal liposuction due to which this technique is fast gaining popularity.

However, laser liposuction should be performed on body parts having only a small amount of fat in that area. The most commonly treated body parts by this procedure are neck and saddlebags. The surgeon is able to sculpt the area while doing this surgery since the treated area is very small. Also, there is no skin sagging after this surgery. Usually, laser lipo is an outpatient procedure therefore you don't have to get admitted to the hospital. If the area to be treated is bigger, then doctors recommend going with normal liposuction techniques.

You should always find a surgeon who has good experience and skill in this method. The results of a laser lipo technique depend on skill of the doctor as well as experience therefore having just theoretical knowledge is not enough? Generally, the laser liposuction charges are not covered under health insurance policy. So it is necessary that you go to a doctor who is better qualified and experienced to do such surgeries. - 30292
