What's the difference between smart chin lipo and the precision tx? I've been researching both procedures but don't fully understand the differences between the two. I want to get rid of my double chin and lower chubby cheeks using the least invasive/least downtime/non-surgical method available.
Answer: Smart Lipo vs. Precision TX PrecisionTX is really just the name for another hand piece on the Smartlipo system. It’s meant for smaller areas, like the neck, so it gives the doctor a better tool for delivering the energy in that area. Both can include liposuction and neck tightening. Neither is used for the lower cheeks. I would recommend you see a facial plastic surgeon, as chubby cheeks is a somewhat more complex issue than a chubby neck. A facial plastic surgeon will have the know-how and skill to re-contour the lower face and neck. Try to focus on finding a skilled surgeon who creates the type of results you desire, rather than picking the technology.

Answer: Precision TX Versus Smartlipo 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 forward. So the Precision TX utilizes a smaller handpience with the sidelaze 1440 nm wavelength to access smaller regions like the submental area or under the chin and neck area. It basically was born from Smart Lipo. The difference between PrecisionTx and injectables like Kybella is that it targets fat while ALSO tightening so that it gives a dual benefit. The negative is that patients must wear a compression garment for 3 days straight followed by a week of wearing from 8-10 hours. If someone has SmartLipo Triplex, chances are they are using the Precision handpiece for the chin area.
