Introducing pulsed laser energy to liquefy fat cells, which is then removed from the body naturally and by aspiration, the laser energy also coagulates the tissue, thereby sculpting body contours and tightening the skin. The procedure generally causes less bleeding, swelling and bruising than traditional liposuction, resulting in fewer complications and faster recovery for patients with greater sculpting control for the surgeon.

The Skinny on Smart Lipo, Cool Lipo, and Pro Lipo

Article by Dr. Mercedes @ Westchase

Liposuction has come a long way from the traditional complicated procedures from the 1980′s. Today’s technology offers us two types of liposuction procedures-the ultrasonic and tumescent technique. Both still require surgery, however, they differ in their backing technology. Generally speaking, the tumescent technique is lipo’s “old school” ways while the ultrasonic procedure uses the latest instruments given by science.

Weight loss from both types of procedure is guaranteed, however, in these fast paced times, patients also want something quick with little downtime for recovery. Although the ultrasonic technique has two steps, namely melting fats with laser and then surgically suctioning the fat, it is still quicker and easier for both doctor and patient to undergo this process. Laser-powered liposuction has shown promising results and has quickly gained popularity. Statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons have indicated that in 1992, about 47,000 Americans underwent liposuction. Comparing that number to 320,000 liposuction patients in 2003 only proves that this cosmetic procedure has not only become more patronized, but also has become safe enough for this number of people to invest their money and time to. In actuality, this type of liposuction is more expensive than the traditional procedure but ever since its introduction to the market more than a decade ago, cosmetic surgeons and patients alike have chosen to go for the laser technology this procedure offers. In a way, laser has been recognized to have revolutionized the medical industry.

The decision-making process does not stop after taking a pick between tumescent or ultrasonic. If one chooses the latter, they again have decide on the kind of ultrasonic technique to go with. The ultrasonic procedure of ridding your body of fat also branches out into three major systems, namely: Smart Lipo, Cool Lipo, and Pro Lipo. Smart Lipo is ideal when working on the smaller parts of the body such as the face, chin, arms, and the back. Like its two counterparts, the surgeon starts the procedure by targeting the problem areas with laser in order to liquefy the fats. Then, after injecting the patient with local anesthesia, the doctor can than proceed with suctioning the melted fats from the body. However, unlike tumescent liposuction, excess fat is is excreted through the liver, thus, cleansing our body in the process.

Cool Lipo also targets small areas of the body but its difference with the other procedures is the wavelength it uses for its laser-1064 nm. Smart Lipo uses 1320 nm. Whether one is better than the other is still undetermined, but both procedures have the same aim of weight loss, body sculpting, and skin firming.

ProLipo, on the other hand, is a technique that requires only local anesthesia and does not even need sedation for the patient. It does not have so much difference with the other two techniques because the steps involved are the same. This procedure uses fiber-delivered laser energy to the target areas. It is also done along with other lipo-treatments, but if preferred, it can be done solely without other procedures. This system also offers to lift and tighten skin after the elimination of fat. The session takes about 1 to four hours-the average time for all three processes.

Weight loss and ultrasonic liposuction in Tampa has is now easily accessible for possible patients. Smart Lipo is currently the most available procedure in Tampa, Florida. Patients usually couple liposuction with other anti-aging procedures such as Botox or skin renewal therapy. The state of Tampa has a array of certified cosmetic surgeons, ready to help you in your quest for a healthier body.
