The Arizona Smart Lipo center specializes in laser-assisted body sculpting and contouring using the most advanced techniques available today. The procedure is performed while awake under only local anesthesia and is virtually painless. The laser-tipped cannula is the size of a needle (1 millimeter) and doesn’t even require an incision with a scalpel. The laser simultaneously melts the fat while the heat stimulates collagen to tighten the skin and smooth out cellulite, stretch marks, and skin defects left by traditional liposuction. After homogeneously melting the fat, the liquefied fat (the consistency of milk) is then suctioned out of the body by similar “micro”-sized tubing.

SmartLipo
You've tried dieting. You've tried exercise. But parts of your body have simply refused to tone up. Now you can change all that. LaserBodySculpting is a revolutionary, minimally invasive treatment that does something no fitness routine in the world can: permanently destroy fat cells. Since you have only a finite amount of these, no new fat cells come back—and you can finally have that body you've always wanted.

Here are some of the salient benefits and 6 of the most compelling reasons to choose the Smart Lipo procedure to achieve the body of your dreams:

1)       Smart Lipo offers a safe and effective alternative to traditional tumescent liposuction (costs less and not nearly as invasive or traumatic to the tissues)

2)       Smart Lipo permanently destroys fat cells

3)       Smart Lipo provides superior results leaving the skin smoother than before

4)       Smart Lipo tightens loose skin and effectively treats cellulite and stretch marks, as well as repairs unsatisfactory prior liposuction results

5)       Smart Lipo is performed while awake under light sedation requiring only local anesthesia with a much faster recovery period

6)       Smart Lipo can be performed on the jaw line, chin, neck, arms (“bat wings”), back (“love handles” and “bra line”), abdomen, hips, inner and outer thighs (“saddlebags”), and knees

Laser Body Sculpting is meant for those areas which seem resistant to diet and exercise. The best candidate is in good health and of essentially normal body weight. Typically only one treatment is needed and results can be seen as early as one week, with continued improvement over 3-6 months. A compression garment may be suggested for 3-4 weeks, depending on the area of the body treated. Most patients return to work in a couple of days and resume exercise after 2 weeks. Smart Lipo is truly “the smartest way to have liposuction”.

Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is a safe, non-invasive anti-aging tool involving the use of micro injections of vitamins, plant extracts, enzymes, homeopathic or other medications into the mesoderm (middle layer of the skin). The process enables healing and corrective treatment to a specific area of the body by increasing circulation and the body's natural ability to produce more collagen.
