Such may be necessary in persons that have weight related complications such as sleep apnea, gastro-esophageal reflux disease, high blood pressure and diabetes among others. There are a number of important facts regarding smartlipo Somerville residents should know if they intend to have this treatment.

With laser liposuction as is the case with other types of liposuction, two main procedures are involved; removal of fat and tightening of redundant skin. The result is firmer, more youthful skin. The increased demand for laser liposuction in recent times can be attributed to the advantages that it has over the open procedure. One of the advantages is the fact that associated complications are fewer hence the time needed for recovery is way shorter.

There is very little that is required in terms of preparation as long as one is in a good general condition. There may be a need for your doctor to take a medical history and to examine you but this is meant to screen for establish whether you have any conditions that may put you at risk. You will be required to quit smoking (at least momentarily) as well as stop staking any blood thinners two weeks before the procedure.

Laser liposuction is effective in both men and women. However, the number of women presenting as clients is much higher than that of their male counterparts. Some of the areas from which the fat may be removed, include the back of the neck, the abdominal region, the neck, thighs and the buttocks among others. The type of anesthesia that is to be used will be determined by the size of the area involved.

Laser is used on the superficial and deep layers of fat found just beneath the skin. The heat generated from the laser probe helps melt fat cells and converts them into oils. The oils are then suctioned using a vacuum suction machine. The next step is to induce injury to the connective tissue fibers in the dermis layer. This provides an opportunity for new, stronger fibers to regenerate.

In an alternative technique that is used for specific areas of the body, the fat is not suctioned. This is because very little of it is produced from the process due to a small layer of skin. The face and the neck are some of the areas that may have such a problem. Skin tightening can be done this notwithstanding.

The scars that are associated with smartlipo are usually very small. This is a preferred outcome if the scars are in an exposed part of the body.

You can resume your daily activities in a day or two following the procedure.

Positive results are evident after a couple of days and more improvements follow within a few weeks. To maximize on the benefits of laser liposuction, you need to adopt a healthy lifestyle characterized by a well-balanced diet and regular physical exercise. Maintain a good hydration status all the time.
