If you are at or just slightly above your ideal body weight but suffer from stubborn pockets of fat that are keeping you from achieving the toned body contours you desire, consider undergoing SmartLipo treatment with Dr. Sheena Kong. SmartLipo can help you sculpt troublesome “problem areas” without having to partake in trendy fad diets or spend extra time at the gym.
What Is SmartLipo?
SmartLipo TriPlex is an innovative approach to liposuction surgery that involves the use of a laser to liquefy fat cells for easier removal, providing Dr. Kong with high-definition sculpting capability. The SmartLipo TriPlex system offers three different laser wavelengths, which can be used in combination or independently to provide customized liposuction treatment.
In addition to liquefying fat cells to facilitate removal, using the SmartLipo laser during liposuction also works to coagulate tissues (in order to minimize bleeding and bruising) and cause collagen fibers in the treatment area to contract, thereby providing a skin tightening effect. SmartLipo can be performed on the abdomen, “love handles,” back, thighs, hips, knees, arms and neck, for a smoother, slimmer contour throughout the treatment area.
Additional Benefits of SmartLipo
With SmartLipo, Dr. Kong can use local anesthesia instead of general anesthesia, dramatically reducing the risk of anesthesia-related complications. Also, the recovery period is significantly shorter with SmartLipo than it is with conventional liposuction. Finally, Dr. Kong uses much shorter incisions with SmartLipo than she would with traditional liposuction techniques; with proper care, shorter incisions lead to nearly imperceptible scars.
