How Safe and Effective is Laser Liposuction?

Hi! The procedure aids in in body contouring or as a good start
for weight loss lifestyle. Obesity, cellulite, stretch marks, a history of
“yo-yo” weight gain/loss, or loose, sagging, inelastic skin, are problems which
would tend toward poor results. In fact, these problems may be worsened by
liposuction and may be best addressed by other procedures such as a leg or body
lift (e.g. tummy tuck) to improve the patient’s appearance. 
Also, patients should be aware that liposuction is NOT a method of weight loss and muscletoning, or an alternative to diet and exercise. It does not affect one'smetabolism. Regular exercise and diet is still recommended in maintaininggood and lasting liposuction results. Find a board-certified plasticsurgeon and discuss realistic goals and expectations. Best of luck!#RealSelf100

Laser lipo is one of four liposuction choices I offer in my plastic surgery practice in Los Angeles. Results are optimal with proper diet and exercise. Raffy Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Laser liposuction is safe and effective in the right hands.  I would only recommend a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to do this.  Many can do the easy cases, it is the difficult cases which are the ones you need the extra skill they were trained for.  The laser lipo is safest in the hands of a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. 

IF you listen to the proponents of laser liposuction, they will try to convince you that it is the greatest invention since sliced bread.
Pictures may show the results of their devices. However, the question remains if it is superior to existing methods of fat removal/destruction.
Most respected plastic surgeons are awaiting better studies before they jump into a procedure that may provide another alternative but not a definitive solution.
