I read quite a few reviews, and can't quite understand why some people say that smartlipo did not work for them. Is there reasoning behind this? Are some people resistant to fat removal? Do some surgeons not remove enough fatty tissue?
Answer: Patient Selection Is Important Factor As with any cosmetic procedure, it's important to consult with an experienced surgeon who can help explain treatment alternatives. I've used Smartlipo for years at my practice, and the vast majority of patients have been extremely satisfied with their results. But each patient has unique needs, and in some cases Smartlipo -- or any form of liposuction -- may not be the procedure needed to get the desired results. Less than desirable results can occur from too little fat being removed, too much fat being removed, the right amount of fat with poor healing, and sometimes unrealistic expectations of the procedure, which brings us back to an honest discussion with an experienced surgeon. Best of luck to you.

Answer: SculpSure Thank you for your question, DentalDiva84. Patients have different reactions to different procedures. That said, the expertise of the surgeon will dictate the success of the procedure, for the most part. For that reason, please be sure that you consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.Have you considered SculpSure for subcutaneous fat? It is the most effective treatment for targeting and removing unwanted stubborn subcutaneous fat by melting up to 25% of it after a single 25-minute in-office treatment.Best wishes,

Answer: Liposuction and Techniques -- SmartLipo Versus VASER Versus Traditional Versus WAL Versus ThermiRF There are different types of liposuction techniques and its not the device that gives the results, its the type of procedure and persons expertise and skill. I suggest a 4D hi definition trained physician to get the most contouring type results. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Smart Lipo is a tool, not a magical process Smart Lipo is a tool. Like any tool, SmartLipo works well when used in the right way for the right patients. It's not for everyone, it's not always used properly and it doesn't always give great results. Experienced liposuction surgeons use a variety of tools during body contouring procedures and a smart lipo procedure frequently requires additional tools to achieve excellent results. If these additional tools are lacking, the results will not reach the same level.

Answer: Smart Lipo and Liposuction Thanks for your question.Smart Lipo is just another type of liposuction.The laser used in Smart Lipo could help to improve the tightness of the skin, however, the key is really in the technique that is used in my opinion.In certain times, a better result may be able to be achieved with traditional liposuction rather than laser liposuction.I hope this helps.
