If you’re tired of putting in the work to lose weight, but have some areas of your body that won’t respond to diet and exercise, laser liposuction may be for you. This minimally invasive procedure eliminates fat cells without the discomfort, pain and bruising associated with traditional liposuction surgery.
Can I Have Laser Liposuction?
The ideal candidate for laser liposuction is someone who is near their ideal weight but has stubborn pockets of fat that don’t want to go away. You should also be in good health and have some skin elasticity for the treatment to be effective.
How Does It Work?
The treatment works by using low-level laser light energy to penetrate cell walls, causing them to release their contents. This reduces fat and shrinks the size of your cells, allowing them to be flushed out of your body by your metabolism or burned for fuel.
You can expect a small amount of swelling after your procedure, which is normal and can be addressed by applying an over-the-counter anesthetic to the treatment area. You will also need to wear a bandage to protect the treated area from injury and to help with the healing process.
Afterward, you will need to stay out of direct sunlight for a few hours and avoid hot beverages such as coffee or tea. You can also apply ice packs to the affected area for cooling relief.
Your results will gradually start to show after the first few weeks, and they should continue to improve as your body processes fat cells and reshapes them into thin, smooth shapes. You can expect to see more dramatic changes after two to four months, but you’ll still need to make lifestyle changes to keep your new, slimmer figure.
Can I Have More than One Treatment?
In order to get the most dramatic results, you will need a few sessions of laser liposuction. You should also have a healthy diet and plenty of exercise to maintain your new shape.
Which Body Parts Are Best for Laser Smart Lipo?
Laser Smart Lipo can be used to treat several different areas of the body, including the abdomen, thighs, hips, buttocks, knees, and arms. In addition to removing unwanted fat, the treatment can also tighten loose skin by boosting the production of collagen.
Can I Have More than One Laser Smart Lipo?
Depending on the amount of fat removed, you may need more than one treatment. For most patients, six to eight treatments are needed in order to achieve optimal results.
How Long Will Laser Smart Lipo Last?
Laser Smart Lipo will have permanent, lifelong results for most patients. Because the treatment permanently destroys and physically removes fat cells from your body, they cannot return. This makes it an excellent choice for anyone in the Boston area who wants a fast, easy, and permanent way to get rid of fat.
Because the fat cells that are destroyed during the treatment are not able to return, you will have to make changes in your diet and exercise routine in order to maintain your new, thinner shape. You should continue to visit our office for maintenance treatments once a month or so to maximize your results and keep your body looking its best.
