More important the the technology of the liposuction is the experience of the surgeon.

James C. Grotting, MD answers: How much does Smart lipo cost?

Is there a flat Smart Lipo price or do you pay per area? Does the amount of fat you have taken out affect the cost of SmartLipo?

SmartLipo has enjoyed wonderful success from a marketing standpoint.  It is a "hot and  exciting" buzzword among those seeking body contouring.

Because of its popularity, many surgeons have purchased or leased SmartLipo equipment in order to meet this demand of the patient population.

A scientific comparison of SmartLipo versus traditional techniques published in the premier plastic surgery journal found no discernable difference between body areas treated with the two different techniques.

Much more important than the technology assisting the liposuction (power assisted, ultrasound assisted, or laser assisted), is the experience of the surgeon performing the procedure.
