I had a consul w/ a surgeon, who only performs laser lipo. After exam of my ab, love handle, and my chest/nipple area. He refer me to a spa center for cool sculpting. He explained to me that I have only 2 inch pinch of fat on my abs, laser lipo it might cause ripples or dimples on my skin, which is not a risk worth taking. I have done so far coolsculping one session, I can see the result. But not dramatic. Now I feel like wasted same amount of money on cool sculpting and got very little result.
Answer: Liposuction without images it is difficult to advise, I would recommend seeking a plastic surgeon in your area that specializes in body contouring.Smart Lipo can help contour most body types. Even in slim patients, there are areas and pockets of fat that cannot be controlled through diet and exercise alone. I have treated many slim patients (like yourself) who are seeking greater contour in stubborn areas.The great thing about Smart Lipo is that it also offers some skin tightening once the fat is removed. If you do decide to go through with the procedure, just make sure you are seeing a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to get the best results.

Answer: I want Smartlipo but my doctor keeps referring me to cool sculpting. Should I seek 2nd opinion? This would be hard to make a recommendation without an exam. Liposuction results are highly surgeon dependent. Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of liposuction and liposuction revision procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Answer: What procedure for body contouring Hi Albanyfx, The time frame over which the results form Cool Sculpting works takes months. The results may be subtle and often there is a need to do a second treatment. It does work but possibly not as much as you might like. The advantage of the Smart Lipo laser assisted liposuction is that it has a more rapid and dramatic improvement. I don't have any information about your age and medical history so it is difficult to advise here. I recommend a second opinion. Smart Lipo is invasive but an isolated area like your hips could be done with tumescent local anesthesia with oral or intravenous anesthesia. The big advantage of Smart Lipo over other body contouring procedures is the improved skin tightening. We would be happy to schedule a consultation with you and discuss your options. We have the latest Smart Lipo Triplex system which carries an additional laser wavelength that has improved the laser's effectiveness. We provide a state of the art Vectra 3D imaging system to review expectations and potential results.

Answer: Possible second opinion In my opinion it is best to speak with another surgeon to be sure that Smartlipo is the best procedure for you. If you have areas of stubborn fat that don’t seem to diminish with diet and exercise you are most likely a candidate for Smartlipo. Good luck in whichever procedure you choose.
