Thank you for your question.If you are doing a different body area you can have the procedure immediately. To have a second procedure performed on the same area you should wait at least six months. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
Hi!If smart lipo is being done in an area that you have never had smart lipo done, you can have that procedure performed almost immediately. If you are wanting smart lipo into an area where you have already had lipo then I would wait a minimum of 9 months before proceeding with a repeat procedure.
I suggest a VASER HI DEF procedure as the results are more dramatic and give you the most improvement in contouring, fat reduction, skin tightening and fat can be used to shape other areas of the body. Best, Dr. Emer.
SmartLipo on the same area can be done anytime after 6 months. You must consider your ultimate goal in deciding which treatment is best for you.
Lipo in the same area can be repeated in 6-12 months. In a different area, there is no time restriction. You need to ask why you want to do this. Sometimes lipo is not the best treatment and other procedures may give a better result alone or in combination.
You could safely do a 2nd round of Smartlipo within a few days of each other on different parts of your anatomy. I would not re-treat the same area for a minimum of 3 months though (I'd prefer to wait 6 months because we continue to see changes and improvements as time goes on). Best wishes.
you will keep improving for 6 months after Smartlipo so i would not rush to do it again before 6 months. if you are treating a different area with Smartlipo, you can do it the next day.david berman md
Most of my patients in just a few days can return to their normal clothes. everyone is different though. no one can predict the rate your swelling will resolve. however, it will definitely go away and you just have to be patient. best of luckdavid berman md
The "arm" is a single area--the upper arm. Fat on or around the chest (near the armpit), not on the arm, is a separate area. Just discuss your goals with your surgeon, and she should be able to guide you.
Thank you for your questions. What makes SmartLipo different from traditional liposuction is due to the fact that the laser that is used to tighten the skin kills and destroys the fat cells before removal. Fat removed using SmartLipo technology is not reusable whereas fat removed and harvested...
I have done several patients who were very happy with their results but wondered if I could get even more fat out with further improvement, if i went back to the same area, after 5-6 months. This was in fact the case. I don't see why there is any absolute number of treatments you can have. ...
Thanks for your question! I don't think that SmartLipo would be the best choice for you right now. Based on your photos, I think that you may have some visceral or intrabdominal fat that can't be treated with liposuction or SmartLipo. Also, SmartLipo is better for targeted areas...
Thank you for your question and congratulations on your recent procedure. While it is normal for the body to retain water weight post procedure, you are also experiencing swelling as well while your body is healing. It's best to not focus on your post-op weight, this should return to normal...
