Even if you eat a balanced diet and exercise regularly, there might be stubborn fat deposits in your body that don’t go away no matter what you do. If you’re at or near your goal weight but are still struggling with problem areas, there’s a solution: the Cynosure® Smartlipo® Triplex™system.
This minimally invasive system can get rid of the pockets of stubborn fat and give you the contour you’ve been working so hard to get. With Smartlipo, your provider makes a tiny incision and inserts a thin tube. Then, your provider releases energy through a laser fiber that destroys the fat cells. Then he suctions out the destroyed fat cells through the same incision.
As will be highlighted below, Smartlipo is often a superior method to traditional liposuction, because Smartlipo causes less cutting and can tighten skin, among other benefits. In this blog, Amir Raeesy, MD, of Balboa Medical Center & Spa in Encino, California, lists five reasons why clients love this revolutionary system.
1. Less discomfort and shorter recovery time
Traditional liposuction works by suctioning fat through larger incisions than are made with Smartlipo. Because the incisions made with Smartlipo are small, the recovery period is usually shorter than is required with traditional liposuction, and there’s usually less post-recovery discomfort.
2. Versatile enough for any area of the body
Many other types of body sculpting only work on large areas. However, the Smartlipo system can be used in small or tricky areas, such as your arms and neck. But, it’s still powerful enough to tackle larger areas, such as your belly, hips, and thighs.
3. Can tighten skin and leave it looking younger
Some body-sculpting treatments, such as traditional liposuction, only remove fat cells. And this can leave loose skin behind. Smartlipo, on the other hand, not only destroys fat cells, but it can also tighten your skin due to the heating effects of the laser. When the laser heats the treated area, this can stimulate the production of collagen, which can lead to firmer, younger-looking skin.
4. Smartlipo is incredibly safe
Smartlipo has been featured in more than 45 clinical studies and used by practitioners for more than 10 years, making it one of the most well-known and well-tested body sculpting treatments available.
Additionally, it has a number of safety features, including the SmartSense™ Delivery System, which safely and precisely delivers energy by measuring motion and laser power. It also has the ThermaGuide Temperature system, which provides temperature feedback to prevent unnecessary discomfort.
5. Smartlipo offers three customizable wavelengths
Unlike other comparable laser lipolysis systems, Smartlipo Triplex offers three laser wavelengths, which can be used on their own or blended together. This means Dr. Raeesy can customize the wavelengths for maximum efficacy on your problem area.
If you’ve found that diet and exercise aren’t enough to get the sculpted body of your dreams, Dr. Raeesy can help. In addition to Smartlipo, Balboa Medical Center & Spa also offers KYBELLA for fat reductions under the chin, as well as numerous skin tightening procedures.
