Liposuction

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Smartlipo?

Smartlipo is a medical device designed exclusively to perform laser-assisted lipolysis, commonly referred to as Laser Liposuction. A very thin tube containing the Smartlipo laser fiber is inserted in targeted fatty areas through a small incision. The laser fiber delivers thermal energy directly to fat cells and disrupts the fatty tissue for easy removal. The laser literally melts the fat, which is removed with gentle suction. At the same time, tissue around the area tightens through coagulation, contributing to a smoother shape overall.

What are the advantages of laser liposuction over traditional liposuction?

Skin Tightening
Minimal swelling and bleeding
Minimal bruising
Less trauma and faster healing time
Local anaesthesia

How do I know if Smartlipo is right for me?

The best candidates for Smartlipo are women and men who are not significantly overweight but have accumulated fat deposits—such as love handles, flabby upper arms, excess neck or facial fator fat on the lower torso. A consultation with our Smartlipo physican can provide you with the best information.

What areas of the body can be treated?

Smartlipo is ideal for the neck, jaw line, arms, bra fat, “love handles”, post-pregnancy skin laxity, saddlebags, knees and enlarged male breasts.

What does the procedure feel like?

Because the area is anesthetized, there is minimal discomfort during the procedure. You may feel a light pressure but it is a mild sensation. Following Smartlipo, you may experience some aches, much like after a physical workout. A compression garment may be worn for a short period after treatment, depending on the body area treated and the recommendation of your physician.

How long does the procedure take?

On average, the procedure will take 1.5-2 hours. This is dependent on the number of areas to be treated and the size of the areas.

Do I have to stay in the hospital?

No. Smartlipo is an in-office procedure performed under local anesthesia.

How many treatments are necessary?

For most patients in New York City, results are achieved in just one Smartlipo treatment. Results can be seen within a week, with continued improvement over three to six months.

How long do the results last?

Smartlipo permanently destroys fat cells in the treated area. However, it is important to maintain a healthy diet and exercise regimen to enjoy long-lasting results.

Will there be scarring?

The incision site will be very small. With proper care, any scars will be barely noticeable.Your physician is best to evaluate your skin type and provide you information.

What’s the recovery time?

LaserBodySculpting is a minimally invasive procedure which usually requires only local anesthesia. Some light bruising can occur, but you’ll be able to return to normal activities within a day or two.

How much does Smartlipo cost?

The cost depends on the number and site of areas to be treated. We offer interest-free financing plans with payments of as little as $99 per month.
