Beach body season is in full swing! That's right, the time of year you diet and exercise for all year is upon us. Are You ready?
Sometimes no matter how hard you work out and eat right, stubborn fat and cellulite just won't budge. Unfortunately, traditional liposuction is expensive and there are a lot of potential complications and the risks involved. That's why a lot of celebrities are using SmartLipo instead, as its way less invasive.
It is a cutting edge technology that was introduced in 2007 and has been quickly gaining popularity across the country. It's the first FDA approved laser to be used for fat dissolution and removal.
SmartLipo gets the same results as liposuction but uses a laser to liquefy fat through the top layer of the skin. The liquefied fat is actually ruptured cells which are then removed by the surgeon through a tiny incision. Because there is less cutting and more precision through the use of laser technology, the swelling, bleeding, and bruising is minimal.
Traditional lipo uses general anesthesia, which is the part of the procedure that most increases the risks. SmartLipo is the first liposuction procedure that can be done using local anesthetic while the patient is awake and alert and without being admitted to a hospital. It generally takes about 2 to 3 hours from start to finish.
In fact, while a day or two of rest is ideal, if you need to you can actually return to work the same day. This is why some have dubbed the procedure the "lunch hour lipo!" Results are permanent and can be seen immediately, though it takes a few months for the full results to show.
Not only is the procedure safer and more convenient, but it is also more cost-effective. On average, SmartLipo costs around 30% less than traditional liposuction procedures.
Just about everyone is eligible for SmartLipo. It may be right for you if have worked hard to diet and exercise but just can't seem to lose those pockets of fat. Most ideal candidates are in good health, have about 25 lbs or less to lose, and have already tried to get rid of those problem areas the "traditional way" but found it didn't work.
One thing that is important to note is that you need to have realistic expectations before getting any kind of cosmetic procedure. Be sure to talk with your doctor during your consultation about your goals for the procedure-they want you to be happy too!
