Liposuction is a time-tested plastic surgery procedure that removes unwanted and unappealing fat from areas of your body. It offers swift results for men and women who desire a more toned look but are not getting a response with exercise and diet alone.
Smartlipo is a laser-assisted liposuction procedure that typically provides exciting outcomes for those who wish to eliminate fat cells from their body but prefer a less invasive option compared to traditional liposuction. Minimally invasive Smartlipo by Cynosure, a leading developer of aesthetic treatment systems, can help you reveal a slimmer, more contoured neck, upper arms, waist, abdomen, hips, and legs. If all of this sounds promising to you, plastic surgeon Dr. Cynthia Mizgala is pleased to perform Smartlipo, an innovative technology for minimally invasive liposuction at A Woman Plastic Surgeon in Metairie, LA.
Liposuction is not a weight loss system but can treat your problem areas. You should see a remarkable reduction in the fatty areas that typically don't respond well to exercise and diet changes. This procedure, performed in an office setting with only oral sedation, can be life-changing. Those most likely to benefit from SmartLipo have problem areas of fat accumulation. These areas can be numbed and sculpted in the office with minimal to no downtime.
As Smartlipo utilizes a smaller cannula, it can target areas where precision is needed, such as the jowls, neck, or underneath the chin. Other common areas include the arms, back, bra fat, buttocks, hips, flanks, and abdomen. A treatment plan is customized to each individual patient so that we can give the best Smartlipo New Orleans has to offer.
The incisions made with Smartlipo are tiny — just enough for the cannula to be inserted. With this treatment, the cannula is smaller compared to what is used with traditional liposuction. Dr. Mizgala will hide the incisions in an inconspicuous place and the scarring is barely visible.
Once the fat cells are removed by Smartlipo, they cannot return. After Smartlipo it's important to adhere to a healthy lifestyle with proper diet and exercise to ensure a healthy, long-term lifestyle.
It is important to understand that Smartlipo, or any liposuction method, is not a one-stop solution to being overweight. Liposuction is great to treat problem areas but should be combined with a healthy lifestyle.
Smartlipo is a treatment that can cover a small delicate area, such as the chin, or a larger area, such as the flanks and thighs. Therefore, the price for a Smartlipo session can vary greatly. On average, the price runs between $1,500 – $8,500. A Woman Plastic Surgeon accepts many forms of payment and offers monthly specials to help make your treatment affordable.
Much like traditional liposuction, Smartlipo is performed through very small incisions with a suctioning device called a cannula. However, because of the innovative lipolysis technology, both the incisions and cannula are much smaller than those of traditional liposuction. During Smartlipo New Orleans plastic surgeon Dr. Mizgala will guide the handheld laser device around the treatment area under the skin. As the fat cells come into contact with the beams of the laser, they will then liquefy and be suctioned and removed.
As the Smartlipo procedure is minimally invasive, there is no downtime. Local tumescent numbing medicine is used to numb the areas to be treated. The procedure will last an hour per area. Upon the completion of the surgery, New Orleans Smartlipo patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort. You will look slimmer in less than a week and full results will be obvious 4 – 6 weeks following the procedure.
If you work hard but still have problem areas, such as the thighs, lower tummy and hips, Smartlipo could be your answer. With Smartlipo, you can design the results you want with minimal recovery.
