Most people don't know that it all comes down to what method is used to numb you up. If you had true tumescent liposuction as we do in our office, you wouldn't have had ANY bruising. The problem is that most people who are doing SmartLipo have little or no qualifications to perform it, let alone liposuction. The company will sell a laser to anyone who has finished a course, despite the fact that their main training has been in some non-cosmetic specialty like family practice or emergency medicine.
What this means is that they know one thing: how to turn on a laser and insert the cannula. This doesn't mean that they know how to get good results, manage the complications or keep you from bruising.
Most of the people who are getting bruising either have been inadequately numbed or haven't been prepared properly. If they were, the incidence of bruising would be nearly zero. If you have bruising it will probably last about 2 weeks, but it could even be longer depending on how bad it is.
