Smartlipo - Laser Liposuction – The Changing Face of Liposuction
By Mark Burns and Mridu Sinha
In traditional
liposuction, a 4-6mm tube is inserted into the areas of fat
deposits, which have been targeted for removal. This tube is
then used to remove the fat, often resulting in tissue
trauma in the surrounding areas.
Following a
traditional liposuction procedure, an individual was
generally required to take approximately one week off work
to recover from their surgery. All of this has changed with
the introduction of Smartlipo or laser liposuction surgery.
Today, the
increasing use of Smartlipo (laser liposuction surgery)
offers a less invasive alternative to traditional
liposuction surgery, and as it requires only a local rather
than a general anaesthetic, is widely considered to be a
safer alternative.
An increasing
number of cosmetic surgery clinics in the UK and throughout
Europe are now offering Smartlipo (laser liposuction
surgery) as one of their standard cosmetic procedures.
Laser
liposuction surgery is also far more effective in areas,
which were more difficult to remove through traditional
liposuction such as the inner thighs and the backs of the
arms.
Laser liposuction surgery is also able to treat areas
that are more delicate e.g. the face, the neck etc. that
previously were untreatable through liposuction. Smartlipo
treatment usually lasts around one hour per region
treatment, and as the process is minimally invasive, it is
performed under a local anaesthetic.
Does Smartlipo Hurt
Smartlipo (laser liposuction surgery) is
virtually painless, although some
patients may experience a minor
discomfort during the procedure. In the
majority of instances, patients are able
to leave the clinic approximately one
hour after their laser liposuction
surgery procedure.
How much does Smartlipo cost
Although prices for Smartlipo (laser
liposuction surgery) will vary depending
on the clinic, and the size of the area
to be treated, you can usually expect to
pay approximately £1,700.00 to £2,200.00
per area. The majority of cosmetic
clinics will offer a reduced rate if
more than one area is requiring
treatment.
Laser
liposuction surgery
is now offered at various cosmetic
surgery
clinics in UK. UK is popular as a hub of
cosmetic surgeries for many years. The
reason is the wide range of top class
surgeons, multi lingual staff, and high
standard service. The prominent places
in UK popular for Cosmetic Surgery are
Spain and Prague.
