I am 23, 5'3 and about 120lbs. I have lost about 45 pounds in the past 5 years and have a VERY mushy mid-section with moderate fat and plenty of loose skin.
With traditional types of lipo, surgeons typically suggest it will work best for patients with good skin elasticity, but as I have many stretchmarks from my previous weight loss and my mid-section (abs, flanks and back) is still overly malleable, I have been hesitant to proceed with that route.
SmartLipo seems to be a possible alternative, but I want to make sure I can achieve the same drastic results as I could with traditional lipo. It seems to be nearly as expensive as traditional lipo, after all. So, basically, would SmartLipo be a good choice for someone like me with poor skin elasticity?
