How is Smart Lipo Performed? 

Smart Lipo is a laser-assisted liposuction procedure that gets rid of excess fat and tightens your loose skin. Therefore, the laser goes inside your body and targets the fat layers through a small cannula or tube. The heat from the laser causes the excess fats to soften, making it easier for the doctors to get rid of the fat. 

The doctors use a medical-grade laser to perform the procedure. The powerful medical-grade lasers will rupture the fat cells and melt them away to suction them out of the patient's body. 

Despite the power of lasers, Smart Lipo does not cause injuries to the surrounding nerves or the blood vessels. Therefore, the procedure is less risky and does not damage other surrounding areas.
