Smart Lipo Treatment Specialist in Saint Clair Shores, MI

You can think of this cosmetic procedure as an updated version of traditional liposuction. SmartLipo is a laser-assisted liposuction procedure that tightens your skin and gets rid of excess fat. The laser goes inside the body and into the layer of fat in the targeted area through a small cannula, or tube. Heat from the laser causes the fat to soften to make it easier to remove from your body. It is considered a relatively safe and effective procedure for sculpting and contouring the body.

Medical-grade lasers are used for the procedure. They are so powerful that they rupture the fat cells and melt them, so they can be suctioned out of your trouble areas easily. Despite the power of the lasers used, they don’t damage the surrounding nerves, blood vessels or soft tissues. That makes the procedure easier on your body with less risk for damage to other surrounding areas.

The heat from the laser increases the temperature of skin, which in turn encourages the body to produce collagen. As you get older, your body’s natural collagen production decreases, so your skin needs that structural protein to help improve its appearance. It may give you a smoother look for your skin since laser lipo stimulates collagen production. Less fat plus tightened skin works as a powerful combination toward getting the look you want.

The procedure removes melted fat and other liquids from the body. The exact amount depends on the person. Your size and body composition play a role in the amount of liquid extracted. The location where you have the liposuction done can also affect how much liquid is removed from the body. You won’t see as much liquid coming out of the body in the small areas that naturally have less fat.

Once fat has been removed through liposuction – SmartLipo, or any other method – it cannot come back. This means that, in a sense, liposuction is permanent. However, it is important to remember that new fat can and will most certainly accumulate in those same areas of the body unless care is taken to maintain your liposuction results.

Fat accumulations can prove near impossible to remove through diet and exercise – yet these same things are essential for keeping the fat off and maintaining a toned and attractive physique. The same holds true for both men and women, making your willingness to adopt a healthy lifestyle an important consideration in your liposuction candidacy.

Men and women looking to get rid of excess fat deposits and achieve a well-shaped body have many options such as conventional liposuction and minimally invasive Smartlipo, a state-of-the-art laser-assisted lipolysis technique. Traditional liposuction can eliminate those excess fat cells that are unresponsive to diet and exercise. However, the procedure could leave you with saggy skin and can prevent you from achieving your body contouring goals. Smartlipo is a great option to tighten saggy skin.

The FDA-approved Smartlipo Triplex laser liposuction workstation uses high-powered laser energy to remove fat and also tighten loose skin. The tightening of the skin completely depends on the elastic properties of skin. Conventional liposuction would result in loose skin. However, if you have healthy skin with good elasticity, then saggy skin will be less of a problem following a traditional liposuction procedure. People who lack skin elasticity would need an additional procedure to remove that excess skin. There are some skin rejuvenation treatments that might help you to tighten up that sagging skin after a liposuction procedure. Instead, if you have small pockets of fat, then Smartlipo can be the best option as it can both remove fatty tissue and encourage the skin to retract and tighten in a single procedure.
