If not, where does it go?  How do surgeons even know?

After laser lipo your surgeon need to remove the melted fat. There are some non-board certified doctors that do not have enough experience with regular liposuction and do not remove fat post laser lipo.Please check the certification of your surgeon and make sure that your doctor is board certified plastic surgeon. If your doctor does not offer regular liposuction, tummy tuck and only offer laser lipo,then beware. Do your home work and get more than one consultation. If the melted fat is not suctioned out ,you not see a good result and it will take a long time the body to remove damaged fat cells. This process will cause inflammation and long recovery.
