Am I a Good Candidate for SmartLipo in Chicago?

If you have been fighting against those areas where fat deposits seem to sit forever, and if diet and exercise alone do not seem to provide you with the desired results, SmartLipo in Chicago, also known as laser lipolysis, may be the best option for you. You are warmly invited to learn more about the procedure and whether or not it is right for you.

What is SmartLipo?

SmartLipo is an innovative alternative to traditional liposuction. This type of laser lipolysis involves fewer risks and works for a wider array of patients, as compared to original liposuction methods. For this reason, some patients who may not be candidates for traditional liposuction may find that SmartLipo is a great alternative.

SmartLipo is laser-assisted liposuction that causes the destruction of fat cells. With the aid of a laser, it gently melts the fat before it is removed from the body. Since the fat has been melted before it is removed, our doctor is able to use tiny instruments which prevent excessive trauma to your tissues.
Additionally, the heating and melting of the fat before its removal provides another potential added benefit: the tightening of skin. As a matter of fact, SmartLipo is the only liposuction technique available on the market today that can also tighten the skin.

Are You a Good Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for SmartLipo in Chicago if you:

  • Are in overall good health
  • Have localized fat deposits that have not responded well to exercise and diet
  • Are at or near your ideal body weight
  • Do not have any serious health conditions
  • Have a clear, realistic image of the results that can be achieved

What Areas Respond Best to Treatment?

Fat deposits that have not reacted well to other fat reduction approaches and are found on the arms, hips, thighs, buttocks, abdomen, waist or back are most likely to achieve the best results from this procedure. If you follow a healthy lifestyle with the appropriate focus on physical activity, nutrition, and diet, you will most likely enjoy the most optimal and most long-lasting results from SmartLipo in Chicago.
