Smart Liposuction FAQs
Who is a good candidate for Smart Liposuction?
The ideal patient is one who is in good health, has an active lifestyle, has pockets of fat they wish to remove, and has realistic expectations. The surgery is typically not suitable for patients with diabetes, liver problems, blood disorders, kidney problems, or heart problems. A medical screening will be done at the consultation to determine if you are a good candidate.
What body regions can be treated?
The surgery is ideal for removing fat on the abdomen, flanks (love handles), jowls, neck, inner and outer thighs, gluteal fold, hips, knees, arms, male breasts (gynecomastia), and bra roll.
Is the fat reduction permanent?
Smart Lipo combined with PALs permanently removes fat cells to improve your body's contour. Patients should commit themselves to a healthy lifestyle to ensure the best results.
Do Smart Lipo and Power Assisted Liposuction remove cellulite and/or stretch marks?
Although neither Smart Lipo nor Power Assisted Liposuction are designed as treatments for cellulite and/or stretch marks, many patients who have had Smart Lipo have seen improvements in both cellulite and stretch marks. Aspasia offers cellulite treatments using the Tri-Active system; however, there is no proven cure for cellulite at this time.
When do I see the results?
Results can be seen as soon as the swelling starts to subside; typically within a week. The treated areas will appear compact and smaller. Over the next several weeks, the skin around the treated areas will remodel and adjust to the contours of your body. The skin remodeling is a gradual process and the best results are seen after 3-6 months. Cosmetically speaking, successful Smart Lipo and liposuction are measured in inches rather than pounds.
How many times will I need to get Smart Lipo?
Smart Lipo is a one-time surgical procedure. Patients may choose to have Smart Lipo on additional areas of the body at a later date.
Who performs the Smart Lipo laser body sculpting procedure?
All surgical procedures are performed by board certified plastic or cosmetic surgeons.
