What might a patient experience during their SmartLipo treatments by an East Bay, CA dermatologist?
Smart Lipo treatments are a wonderful way for East Bay, CA area
residents to achieve a more contoured body without having to go under
the knife or have traditional liposuction. Smart Lipo is a great method
that allows easy, fast, and affordable treatment of stubborn fat
deposits that can make a patient feel self-conscious or uncomfortable in
their own skin. The many benefits that Smart Lipo can provide have made
it a popular option for patients who are considering body contouring
but who are unhappy with the disadvantages of traditional liposuction
and plastic surgery techniques.
Smart Lipo is done with a laser device that is inserted
under the skin to break down and remove the fat from the treatment area.
Patients may recontour many parts of the body with Smart Lipo,
including the arms, thighs, neck, and abdomen. Any area of the body
where unwanted fat has developed is eligible for treatment.
Patients often ask what they can expect during their Smart
Lipo treatment. After anesthesia is provided and the patient is
comfortable, the procedure will begin. Numbing solution may be added to
make the patient more comfortable if needed. Smart Lipo uses a cannula
(or a tube) that has a laser inside. This laser is inserted underneath
the skin and maneuvered to reach the troublesome fat and break it down.
It also helps to smooth bumpy areas of fat and assist in the stimulation
of collagen production to tighten the skin.
