What is SmartLipo in Chicago, IL?

It’s earned the reputation for being one of the world’s most sought-after and effective cosmetic surgical procedures. In America, there are over 340,000 liposuction surgeries performed each year. Lipoplasty has traditionally been the answer to fat cell removal for patients unable to get results from diet and exercise. Now there is an advanced method for targeting and removing fat cells called SmartLipo in Chicago, IL.

This innovative, state-of-the-art procedure removes excess body fat while it firms up loose skin by introducing a single laser fiber into the specific area using a small cannula. This allows our doctor to melt fat away, remove any stubborn fat deposits and tone the body. SmartLipo in Chicago, IL is the answer to sagging skin and signs of aging, resulting in a more youthful appearance with little recovery time needed. To inquire about SmartLipo, simply contact us today.

Old School vs. New School Techniques

Liposuction was first introduced into our society during the 1970s. Doctors traditionally perform the procedure using a cannula in combination with physical manipulation, so it suctions fat cells from areas beneath the skin. SmartLipo in Chicago, IL uses laser heat that softens and liquefies fat cells, resulting in better manipulation of the cannula, usually with less bruising for the patient.

Skin Tightening

By adding the laser heat feature, the SmartLipo procedure results in tighter skin. Traditional liposuction surgery will not produce any tightening benefits to the skin.

Recovery

Doctors usually recommend a longer recovery time following a traditional liposuction treatment. Post-op care may also require more.
