How Smartlipo Works
Are you seeking a cutting-edge, highly effective method of getting rid of areas of unwanted excess fat, giving your body a contoured, sculpted look? Then laser technology is definitely the technique you'll want to consider. Lasers are routinely used in lasik eye surgery and dental procedures. Precise and safe, today's medical-grade lasers work by creating a powerful light beam that is adjusted to a specific frequency range. What sets SmartLipo apart from the competition is that it uses a carefully calibrated laser to liquefy fat deposits located under the top layers of the skin. The laser actually ruptures fat cells, and the liquefied fat is then removed by Dr. Harbison through a tiny incision in the skin. The laser also seals blood vessels as it zaps the fat, so there is less swelling, bleeding and bruising than with traditional liposuction. Research has shown that little, if any, fat is reabsorbed back into the body. The minimal invasiveness of the Smartlipo procedure allows you to see faster results and reduces the risk of complications. In addition, SmartLipo patients need only a local anesthetic whereas traditional liposuction requires general anesthesia. Because you are not completely unconscious, SmartLipo carries less anesthesia risk than traditional liposuction, and the recovery time is much shorter. SmartLipo…cutting-edge, safe and effective.
