According to Avalon Lipo Aesthetics in San Diego California, there are several benefits to Smart Lipo compared with the older liposuction procedures.
One benefit is that general anesthesia is not used, which can leave the patient with fewer side effects than with standard liposuction. Also, SmartLipo and tumescent liposuction are less invasive as only a small hole is needed.
With the heat of the laser and or the tumescent fluid contracting blood vessels, there is less bleeding and bruising. Patients often return to normal activities and work very quickly afterwards.
