Amount of fat loss from Smart Lipo?

Smartlipo is for isolated pockets of stubborn fat and not for weight loss. If you have a "spare tire", love handles or something like that, liposuction can help you. However, if you are looking for overall weight loss and a lower number when you step on the scale, liposuction is not suitable. It's hard to say how much fat you'll lose but you can ask your surgeon how much was removed during your surgery.

Liposuction results will take a few months to see final results. Liposuction is an excellent method to reduce body disproportion and to reduce extra deposits of fat. Best. Dr. Karamanoukian 

Smartlipo won't help you lose a considerable amount of weight. It is more to remove unwanted localized fat deposits on your body that don't respond well to diet and exercise. It can help treat love handles, muffin top,  saddlebags and other contour concerns. You should be at an ideal, stable weight before you proceed with surgery for your safety and to improve your surgical outcome. 

Smart Lipo is a liposuction technique used to contour the body. The questions regarding how much fat gets removed, of course, depends on each individual. While everyone is concerned about how much fat they lose, the most pertinent question arises regarding the shape the abdomen or concerned region post operative appearance. This will take more than two weeks to see the final results. Most of the skin tightens over the course of the first six months. At two weeks, you will notice firm patches that resolve over time. You should have a good idea that there is a noticeable difference at two weeks and that you will continue to improve in shape over the weeks and months ahead. Just be patient and I am sure your concern will be answered one way or another. I would continue to be in contact with your physician to help you be reassured.

You can tell if adequate amount was removed by comparing the liposuctioned area with other areas of the body.  The best place to compare to is just under the ribs.  The thickness of the pinch should match.  Weighing yourself will not give the correct answer.
