Can SmartLipo Help Me?
Patients love SmartLipo because it is an excellent treatment for addressing fat in almost any area of the body. This is because SmartLipo is a minimally invasive procedure that allows the patient to remain awake and avoid the need for costly general anesthesia.
Using a local anesthetic to keep the affected area comfortable, our Philadelphia cosmetic doctors will make an incision and insert the laser into the layer of fat through a small, metal tube. Heat from the laser causes the fat to liquify, making it easier to suction out.
SmartLipo can address issues like turkey necks, man boobs, double chins, and love handles. It can also tone areas like your calves, abdomen, and arms.
SmartLipo is ideal for patients within 25 pounds of their ideal weight. It is for treating areas in which proper diet and exercise are ineffective. Once completing the SmartLipo procedure, patients can maintain their results forever by maintaining a good diet and by exercising daily. When considering this treatment option, remember to manage you expectations.
SmartLipo will not make you look like a completely different person, but instead to sculpt and reshape targeted areas. You should see a noticeable change to the targeted area immediately following the treatment, with ideal results appearing 3-4 months prior to the initial procedure. Learn about SmartLipo for men.
Request a consultation for our SmartLipo services to determine if you are a candidate for this treatment option. (Most people are!) Prior to receiving treatment, we will need to take some blood tests as well as provide you with the instructions you’ll need to prepare for the procedure at home.
You should not take aspirin, ibuprofen (i.e. Advil, Aleve, Motrin, etc), steroids or anti-inflammatory medications other than Tylenol within two weeks of the procedure. You will also need to discontinue taking all multivitamins including St. John’s wort, Ginko Biloba, Fish Oil and Omega–3 Fatty acids two weeks before. If you take a blood thinner regularly (baby aspirin, coumadin, plavix, etc.) please let us know.
