Laser companies are always coming out with the latest and greatest different wavelengths primarily to sell more lasers. The sad truth is that lasers add little if anything to conventional liposuction properly performed and choosing between surgeons on the basis of lasers is barking up the wrong tree. Look for a surgeon with experience, a great reputation, and great reviews. If you were told that you needed a tummy tuck because your abdomen has loose muscles and loose skin in addition to some surface fat, be prepared to be disappointed by lackluster results if you for lipo alone. TT and lipo are not interchangeable in terms of results.
Thank you for your question, Sue. SmartLipo Triplex is laser liposuction with three different wavelengths that offers some additional skin tightening over typical liposuction. A tummy tuck addresses loose skin and can repair a separated abdominal muscle. It often also includes liposuction. Some advanced techniques in abdominoplasty require no drains and quicker recovery than was formerly possible. I suggest you talk to a board certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in body contouring for either procedure as your result will be highly dependent on the experience of your provider. Best of luck to you.
what matters most is the person doing the procedure not the tool, although I do not find tha laser that effective , much less so than ultrasound (VASER) which I use exclusively for people who need body shaping and skin tightening. I suggest a formal consultation because if you have any loose skin to start you will also need skin surgery and liposuction alone will not give you the best of results. Dr. Emer.
Smartlipo is laser assisted liposuction. The Triplex is the platform for Smartlipo. It allows the surgeon to choose between three different wavelengths to treat the skin and the fatty tissue. Good luck!
These are all part of the same process, laser assisted liposuction. This really needs a photo for , Comments of abdominoplasty vs liposuction.
If you've had a cesarean, wait 6 months for lipo at or around the abdomen. If not, 3 months should be sufficient for your pregnancy changes to revert back to normal. If you're breastfeeding, wait until your done before undergoing lipo.
I would recommend PrecisionTX from Smartlipo. It will help you with the excess fat in the area, tighten your skin, and give you better definition of your jawline. With Smartlipo you are directly attacking the fat. With Ultherapy you are only tightening the tissues, fat basically stays the same....
Most probably this is caused by inflammation of the marginal branch of the facial nerve. It can happen after liposuction. Please consult with your surgeon for treatment. It most probably will resolve with time. Keep us posted.Hope this helps,Dr. Gus Diaz
You've got large areas of dead skin probably burned by the laser. This needs to managed by an expert in burns immediately before it gets infected. See your surgeon and get referred to a specialist if he/she lacks expertise with this complication.
Smartlipo Triplex has 3 different wavelengths: 1064, 1320 and 1440nm. The 1440 wavelength was found to be incorporated into a sidelaze cannula which is important when wanting to direct energy downward (toward the fat) or upward to tighten the dermis. Without the sidelaze, energy just goes f...
If you can get your weight as low as possible the risks of healing will go down significantly. You would need to be down to a healthy weight and BMI before having a cosmetic procedure to insure a safe outcome. Also, being at a stable weight is key to ensure you don't gain weight back after...
