I'm considering signing for a smart lipo treatment. I have heard that the SmartLipo result is permanent – when fat is removed from one area of the body it won’t return there. So my doubt is where will new fat be deposited and would it be deposited at odd areas of the body or in an uneven manner?

The results of smartlipo last forever

Smartlio liposuction removes fat cells and these can never return. However, some fat must be left behind in order to keep the skin soft and normal appearing. If a patient gains significant weight the fat that remains can increase in size.

Fat return after smartlipo

After ANY liposuction, some fat will return to that location if you were to gain weight. As the cells are removed, there are less fat cells left behind to swell with more fat if you gain weight compared to other areas of the body that didn't have the fat cells removed.

How long do the results last? The results last a lifetime, but you should try to maintain you weight in a reasonable range to expect them to last.
