SmartLipo offered in Cleveland, OH

SmartLipo utilizes state-of-the-art laser energy to assist in the fat removal process. Small incisions (about 2mm wide) are made at your treatment area to insert the SmartLipo device, which is a low-end laser fiber. This targets laser energy on your fat cells, liquefying them.

This same energy creates heat that stimulates collagen and elastin production in your skin, tightening and improving its look and texture.

Using the same device, the melted fat is suctioned from your treatment area, permanently removing it from your body. Once completed, your incisions will be closed.

You may be a good candidate if:

• You’re close to your ideal body weight and looking to target small pockets of fat that have not responded to consistent diet and exercise
• You’ve been at a stable weight months before you decide to get the procedure
• You have minimal loose skin and good elasticity

It should be noted that those over the age of 60, or those with cardiovascular issues, hypertension, or diabetes will need medical clearance before receiving SmartLipo.

The recovery period is minimal compared to traditional liposuction. After surgery, it is recommended that you wear a compression garment and get plenty of rest for a few days, even if you don’t experience any discomfort.

Thanks to the small size of the incisions, scarring from SmartLipo is minimal and rarely noticed. Because this procedure creates less trauma to your treatment area, there is less bruising and swelling than traditional liposuction.

You may notice improvements to your body within a few days after surgery, but it can take a few weeks before your body completely heals and maximum benefits manifest.
