I'm confused with Vaser Lipo, Smart Lipo, and Slim Lipo! Is it more of a doctor's preference? I have had several estimates for lipo and each doctor uses something different.

Answer: You are asking the wrong question You are asking about the tool your surgeon will use. What you are getting is LIPOSUCTION, and the differences between these techniques will affect your result less than will the surgeon performing it. Smartlipo in particular is widely recognized to be a powerful marketing tool and little else. I've never seen a shred of data on SlimLipo. Vaser is a recognized method of doing liposuction and there are good published papers on it, but again, it is less important than the surgeon who does it. Find someone certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery who is also a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. Interview them. See their pictures. Examine their credentials. When everything makes sense, select your surgeon. And pay no attention to the method of liposuction that your selected surgeon prefers to use, because in the end it makes no difference.

Answer: Lipo techniques For the most part, lipo techniques are like different cars they all get you to where you want to go. I am not sure how much skin retraction you get with the Laser lipolysis machines, but I am not convinced that the results are any better than more traditional techniques.
