SmartLipo is a laser- liposuction procedure that is performed by cosmetic surgeons to remove unwanted fat. This technique is fairly new and uses minute lasers to dissolve unwanted fat cells from the body. Other forms such as velasmooth and velshape are also used in conjunction with SmartLipo depending on the area that is having the laser-liposuction done.

This procedure is becoming more widespread in Asia, Europe and South America and now in Southern California as people are becoming more concerned about their appearance. This procedure is not for those who are severely overweight. A proper diet and exercise program will assist you in losing unwanted fat from your body and in cases of ugly cellulite on the body; SmartLipo just might work for you.

This procedure is performed as an outpatient service provided by the professional of your choosing. If you choose Dr. Hanna of La Nouvelle Center, you wil be in the best hands. Of course, you will have to undergo an initial consultation so that he may access your overall health. He then will discuss various methods that he can use to remove the unwanted fat cells from your body.

Cellulite is most often found on the buttocks, hips and thighs, but can be found on other areas of the body as well. SmartLipo is a technique that will show results over a period of time as the hormones that help to break down fat cells are given an extra boost when this procedure is performed.

The SmartLipo laser-liposuction technique liquefies the fat deposits from the area that is being focused on. Once the fat has liquefied, the suctioning process begins. It should be noted that this invasive procedure involves only the top surface of the skin. This is one of the main reasons why it can be done in an outpatient clinic, like La Nouvelle Center for Aesthetic Surgery, Liposuction and Vaginal Rejuvenation.

Dr. Hanna, our cosmetic surgeon, will use local atheistic to numb the area before utilizing the use of the lasers. There is little or no risk with this type of procedure and that is one of the other reasons why it is becoming increasingly more popular. Another reason is that this procedure causes less bleeding than other techniques that are used. The lasers quickly burn the blood vessels closed without the use of sutures.

One should remember that modifying your diet and avoiding fatty foods will also help to reduce the risk of gaining more weight. A diet rich in foods from the four food groups will help your body receive the vitamins and nutrients that it needs. Avoid eating too many sweets and drink lots of water to help flush the body of unwanted toxins.
