All About Smart Lipo And Its Effects On Weight Loss And Anti Aging

WHAT IS SMART LIPO?

Smart Lipo is the newest innovation in liposuction treatment. It has now helped over a thousand Americans with weight loss, and it is now very much available in Tampa esthetic clinics. SmartLipo is a non-invasive fat removal procedure which uses the focused power of laser energy to break up and dissolve fatty tissue trapped beneath the skin. In addition to this, Smart Lipo also induces the production of collagena natural substance in our body that tightens and firms our skin.

Unlike traditional liposuction procedures, Smart Lipo reduces common risks and side effects like bruising, long down time, and internal bleeding. In conventional liposuction, the patient is placed under either local or general anesthesia. The surgeon makes a small incision and inserts a thin metal tube into the deep layer of fat underneath the skin and moves back and forth through the fat cells, breaking them up. When this process is complete, the surgeon uses a vacuum tube to suction out the fat into a flask. This process tends to bruise the top layer of cells which results to swelling and pain. Smart Lipo avoids these problems by melting the fats first to make it easier to suck out.

Liposuction is the leading plastic surgery procedure for weight loss according to the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery. Tampa is no exception from this trend. This is the reason why esthetic surgeons are researching on more safe and effective treatments for patients. The problem of sagging skin after liposuction has also been looked, thus, Smart Lipo. Its weight loss and anti aging treatment rolled into one simple procedure.
