SmartLipo for Minor Contouring and Skin Tightening?

I'm a 41 year old mom of two who is 5'7" and 140 lbs. I work out on a regular basis (not strenuously for that matter) and I've got some love handles from aging and cellulite as well. My laser doc tells me have the perfect body for SmartLipo and that only a few liters would be removed. My concern is the results. Is it worth it for a tummy bump and a little excess on my flanks? I am sensitive to bruising (bikini waxes have gone awry )and I eat well and stay clear of the sun. Would you recommend this for tightening and the "perfect" look?

I question his experience to make a statement like that. You sound like an excellent candidate for Smartlipo which I feel works best on small areas such as you describe. I do not believe that Smartlipo (or any other tx for that matter) can help cellulite. Whether it is worth it, is a decision that only you can make. I tell... more
