Smart lipo is actually very safe. It is a type of laser liposuction that breaks up or "melts" fat which makes the procedure less painful to the patient and can be done under local anesthesia in the right hands. It also heats up the dermis in order to provide some skin tightening which occurs 3-6 months after the procedure. The loose skin is tightened by ~50%. The side effects are similar to regular liposuction and include post-op pain bruising, and surface irregularities. As far as the laser, if not done carefully, the skin can be burned. Smart lipo is a great procedure for the right candidate. Find a PS in your area and undergo a consultation, to see if this is right for you.
Smartlipo is a safe and minimally invasiveprocedure. There are no major side effects with Smartlipo; there may be slightbruising and swelling which will subside within just a few days to weeks.Consult with your surgeon to make sure that this is the best procedure for you.
