Laser-assisted liposuction (or Smart Lipo as it is commonly known) uses laser light to heat and destroy undesired fat. This fat is then removed by conventional (vacuum) liposuction. The added benefit to Smart Lipo is the skin tightening effect. Much like laser skin resurfacing, the Smart Lipo...
Smartlipo will not damage any nerves; if anything you will feel slight numbing sensation. This feeling will eventually go away within the next few weeks; give yourself time to fully heal.
3 weeks isn't nearly enough time to see a final result. Your swelling can take as long as 3 to 6 months to finally resolve. Check with your surgeon and get their opinion on what you can expect.
