What are the different sections for Smart Lipo?

Question

I'm 22 and researching smart lipo. I've tried eating healthy, working out, hcg drops, and different diets. I've never been over 200 lbs but somehow throughout trying to lose weight I've hit 215. I'm wondering what are the different sections you can have smart lipo on? What are some of the side effects? How do I know if I've went to a good surgeon?

Your underlying problem is a lack of effective eating habits. "Eating healthy" is a useless pursuit if you have no strategy for the balance of healthy foods and appetite control. Lipo will not help you lose weight ever and will not give lasting cosmetic results if your eating habits remain the same. You can have lipo any time you want, but if you want results, fix your eating habits first.

I find that ultrasound(vaser) is much more effective than smartlipo.  I suggest you find an expert for treatment an evaluation.  the technique and skill is much more important than than the device being used.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you
for your question. SmartLipo is great for any areas of the body where there are
localized fat deposits. It is typically used for body contouring and for
patients that want to treat areas that have been unresponsive to diet and
exercise. It is ideal for treating areas of the face, neck, arms, breasts
(gynecomastia), abdomen, back, hips, thighs, knees, calves, as well as areas of
loose and flabby skin (floppy skin). There are minimal
side effects because the SmartLipo procedure is performed under local
anesthesia. There is very little pain or discomfort involved during the procedure.
The skin incisions are so small that they do not require stitches after the
procedure and are virtually undetectable after healing.

finding the best surgeon for you, it’s best to do your research and meet with a

Smartlipo, is really "laser ASSISTED" liposuction and can be used anywhere standard liposuction would be appropriate.  When I consult with patients given your background I tried to do only a few areas that will give an immediate appearance in clothes. This often gives a very positive feedback and enables the patient to lose the weight on their own.  Hope this is of some help.
