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.

Dr. Christine Lee, of The Skin and Laser Treatment Institute of Walnut Creek, helps area patients improve their contours with laser-assisted technology. Her state-of-the-art facility is equipped with over 40 lasers that assist patients of all skin types, ages, and conditions. Her goal is to help patients be attractive and feel confident about themselves, and this is often accomplished through the assistance of laser technology.

Patients who want to learn more about Smart Lipo treatments and are in the East Bay, CA area are encouraged to contact Dr. Christine Lee to schedule an initial consultation visit to determine if Smart Lipo is right for them.
