Losing weight can be really hard to do. You can diet for months on end or start exercising on a regular basis and you may still have problem areas, like the abdomen, thighs and back, that you still canÌt quite slim down enough for your liking. For women who have had one or more children, this process can become even harder after each pregnancy.

That is why many people decide to research and undergo cosmetic procedures to reach their body goals. One of the most popular of these procedures is liposuction. Liposuction involves inserting a hollow tube (called a cannula) into the fatty areas of the body and suctioning the excess fat out. This procedure has become so popular in recent years that itÌs the most common cosmetic procedure used in the United States today.

Since itÌs so popular, there have been many different liposuction techniques developed to make it more effective and less painful. One of these techniques is called SmartLipoÙ.

What is SmartLipoÙ?

SmartLipo is similar to regular liposuction except that it uses a laser to rupture the fat cells in a targeted area before the fat is removed. A small cannula (1.0 to 2.0 mm Ò smaller than the kind used for regular liposuction) with a laser in it is inserted under the skin. The laser energy breaks down the fat cell walls, liquefying the fat, which can then easily drain away.

What are the Benefits of SmartLipoÙ?

There are many benefits to using this technique.

? The procedure is less invasive than normal liposuction because the cannula is smaller and the fat is already in a liquid form when it is taken out of the body. Since the procedure is less invasive, you can have it done under local anesthesia instead of being put under general anesthesia. This is safer because it eliminates possible side effects and risks associated with general anesthesia.

? The laser energy can help tighten the collagen in your skin, so it will have an easier time shrinking to fit your new contour. Regular liposuction does not offer this advantage and it is often necessary to remove excess, flabby skin.

? The laser energy helps control bleeding and swelling by coagulating broken blood vessels immediately. This accelerates recovery.

What Parts of the Body Can be Treated?

SmartLipoÙ can be used to help eliminate unwanted areas fat in any of these parts of your body: the abdomen, back, thighs, face, neck, upper arms, male breasts Ò anywhere there is a small pocket of fat that you cannot eliminate through diet and exercise alone.
