Dear Cute543992,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. You will need to get a clearance from your doctor prior to surgery. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Air sculpt it’s a brand name owned by elite body sculpture.

It’s a combination of power assisted liposuction with laser treatment.

Smartlipo is a trademark term owned by the cynosure corporation.

It is a laser treatment using the cynosure brand laser done in conjunction with any type of liposuction.

In regards to issues with your shunt there is no difference.

The only single variable that matters is who does the procedure.

Forget trying to figure out what equipment works better. Plastic surgeons will have the tools they need to do their job correctly when it comes to liposuction.

If one device was clearly superior then we would all be using it.

Best,

Mats Hagstrom MD
