Body Jet vs SmartLipo

Theodore Katz, MD answers: Is Body Jet Liposuction as effective as Smart Lipo?

I know that Smart Lipo can tighten the skin; but does Body Jet Liposuction have the same benefits?

The one theoretical advantage of SmartLipo (or even Pro Lipo, Cool Lip, Slim Lipo - all laser assisted liposculpture devices) is that the heat generate on the undersurface of the skin will cause  collagen regeneration and repair and thus add some skin tightening.  More importantly you should seek out a board certified plastic surgeon who performs all techniques of liposculpture - traditional, tumescent, laser assisted, ultrasonic.  After a thorough examination and discussion with you about your goals and expectations he/she should let you know which technique would best accomplish your goals.
