The well known traditional liposuction process is performed by making an incision into the skin and inserting a metal tube with a diameter of between 4mm & 6mm, which removes fat from under the skin through use of a vacuum. The relatively large diameter of the tube and the imprecision of human movement means that the procedure invariably results in loose skin and tissue trauma. Unfortunately, bleeding and swelling are usually inevitable. Traditional liposuction is performed under a general anaesthetic and will often result in a downtime somewhere in the region of one week due to pain and discomfort.
Smart Lipo clinical treatments are a step onward and upward from traditional liposuction. The treatment is performed with a 1mm tube that uses a laser to melt and coagulate fat cells. The reduced size of the tube/canula, combined with use of laser technology, means that there is little to no bleeding or bruising. A tiny incision requiring no stitching is made to insert the canula, and patients are left only with a dull ache rather than the often severe pain associated with liposuction. The powerful laser works on collagen in the skin, tightening it in the period following treatment. This is found by patients to be much preferred to the loose skin left by traditional liposuction, which may end up becoming a new problem requiring additional work. Full results should be seen within 4 months. Smart Lipo is carried out under local anaesthetic, resulting in minimal downtime and a return to work usually within 24 hours.
