Puckering on One Side but Love the Other Side

I got a thread lift for the first time, using the barbed sutures. One side of my face looks much improved and lifted. The other side has “a pucker” and I can see the thread through my skin. It’s super noticeable and I’m worried because I am online all day for my job The puckering went down considerably. I can still see it but unless you’re at a very specific angle it isn’t noticeable....

Smart Lipo —so far not regrets!

I've always been active at gym and balanced my diet between let or high protein/low carbs but I never good get the definition in my abdomen. I would either loss excessive amount of weight and loss all my curves all together or just look bulky from weight training. So I researched a couple of options knowing I didn't want traditional Lipo because I felt it was too aggressive and unnecessary for...

Smart Lipo After 50 - Lehigh Valley, PA

I had a great experience with a very qualified doctor. The pain was minimal. my body healed very naturally. The only problem is I was quite thick around the middle and the results are not all that I had hoped for. I'm considering a revision on upper and Lower abs for a nominal price but I want to make sure my results will be worth it. My measurements are still over 30" and my clothes still...

51 Year Old Male Getting Flabby..... - Bethlehem, PA

After doing some research on-line (maybe not enough?) I decided to go for an evaluation (2-19) to see if I qualified for CoolSculpting. The first place I went to checked me over, and after getting a second opinion from the nurse who actually does the procedure, said I did not have enough fat to perform the procedure. I was disappointed and happy at the same time. There was another local...

Q: How Long to Wear Compression Garment After Smart Lipo
Answered by Dr. YoungAugust 20, 2019

A: This is really up to your provider. It truly depends on how much fat was removed and what body areas were treated. I would say an average amount of time is six weeks. It is important to wear your garment because the top layer of skin was separated from the underlying fat layer so that the laser could melt the fat. The garment holds your skin down tightly in the right place so it can reattach smoothly without any folds or unevenness. Garments are a very important part of the whole SmartLipo process and your optimal outcome.

Q: Best Way to Get Rid of Lumps After SmartLipo?
Answered by Dr. YoungAugust 20, 2019

A: I can understand your frustration. This does happen often and these types of lumps can take months to go away. My recommendation is while lying on your back, perform deep circular massage with a body oil so your hand can glide easily as you make the circles. Start with light pressure then push harder until it is bearable. Do this multiple times a day. Continue to wear your garment. Lymphatic drainage massage and even ultrasound therapy can help to reduce the lumps.

Q: Would Smart Lipo be beneficial for me? (Photos)
Answered by Dr. YoungAugust 20, 2019

A: You are correct that SmartLipo will not have an effect on your stretch marks. It will, however, help to reduce areas of fat that are bothering you. With that said, you can only have a few areas treated at a time due to the safety concerns of the local anesthesia that is used during the procedure. Ultimately you would have to consider multiple treatments over time. Most people start with what is bothering them the most. Typically it is the abdomen and waist. Seek out a provider who has performed many of these procedures and get a couple of consultations and opinions. I have performed well over 8,000 SmartLipo procedures to date, many on patients similar to your photos, and frequently have patients work on a few body areas at a time.

Q: Upper arm liposuction: what is the best way to improve the look of my arms? (Photos)
Answered by Dr. YoungAugust 20, 2019

A: SmartLipo is a good option for the problem you are describing. It's best you seek out a physician who has a lot of experience with arms. One of the best benefits of SmartLipo, aside from the action of removing excess fat, is it's skin tightening abilities over the next few months following the procedure. External skin tightening devices can also be used post-SmartLipo to facilitate extra tightening of the skin.

Q: Smart Lipo or CoolSculpting for a flat stomach? (Photo)
Answered by Dr. YoungAugust 20, 2019

A: In looking at the area you are describing on your abdomen, you would be a good candidate for either procedure. My recommendation would be for you to go to a practice that has done many procedures and possibly even provides both of these treatments. With CoolSculpting, you would need multiple applicators because there is not just one that covers that large of an area. You may or may not need a second treatment to get to your desired shape. You will have to wait at least three months after your first treatment before you would consider a second. While there is no downtime with CoolSculpting, there will be a period of sensitivity and numbness which dissipates after about a month.

SmartLipo would reduce the are much faster, plus has the ability to tightening skin due to its technology. The downside is there will be puncture holes and draining of the tumescent anesthesia fluid for about 2-3 days. You also will be required to wear a compression garment for several weeks.

After your consultations you will know how many CoolSculpting treatments you would need and compare that to the cost of the SmartLipo procedure. Your area of concern really isn't that large, so it truly is up to you to decide which treatment options fit your schedule, your finances and your downtime options. Good luck!
