Tumescent Liposuction
What is Liposculpture?
Liposculpture is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that removes excess fat and creates a more muscular, defined shape. In some cases, plastic surgeons purify the removed fat and insert it into another area of your body for optimal results.
What is Smart Lipo?
Smart Lipo is a less invasive form of liposuction that uses laser energy to liquefy tissue before being suctioned out and also stimulates collagen production to tighten the skin and boost elasticity.Smart Lipo is excellent for smaller areas of the body that need to be contoured, such as the upper arms. For larger areas such as the thighs or for multiple body parts, we usually recommend traditional liposuction so patients can see the best results.

FAQ's
SmartLipo is an FDA-approved fat removal procedure and is widely considered to be safe and effective. In fact, SmartLipo is typically performed using local anesthesia for the patient, which cuts down on anesthesiarelated risks and complications when compared to traditional liposuction using general anesthesia.
The results are long lasting as long as you keep the weight off, exercise,and maintain a good diet. It’s natural for skin to lose some firmness with aging, if you gain weight after liposuction, your fat distribution may change. Depending on how much fat is removed, you can expect to see final results between 3-6 months after the procedure.By the end of the first week, the initial swelling should have reduced slightly, but it can take as long as six weeks for the swelling to go completely.
Local anesthetics are infiltrated using standard tumescent technique, meaning you will be awake during the procedure.
Potential risks of Liposuction can range from severe bruising, inflammation, dimpling, lumpiness, numbness, scarring, discoloration, or sagging skin, as well as discomfort in the surgically treated area. Since a laser is being inserted under the skin, burning of the underlying skin can also be a side effect.
Most Liposculpture patients are asked to rest for up to 1 week before returning to work. Generally, exercise and other strenuous activities are restricted for one week up to 10 days depending on your surgery.
