Overview
Do you have love handles, bat wings, muffin tops, saddlebags or jowls that don’t respond to exercise and diet? They all improve dramatically using Smartlipo TriPlex, with minimal downtime and less pain than traditional liposuction alone. Because Smartlipo actually tightens tissue, you dont have to worry about dimpling and sagging afterward.
TriPlex is the most advanced laser assisted lipolysis system available. This unique technology safely delivers the optimal blend of three laser wavelengths for better fat removal and enhanced tissue tightening. Smartlipo TriPlex will not only tighten tissue, but will also permanently destroy fat cells, and improve your overall body shape.
Who is a good candidate for Smartlipo TriPlex?
The best candidates for Smartlipo are women and men who are not significantly overweight, but have accumulated fat deposits—such as love handles, flabby upper arms, excess neck or facial fat or fat on the lower torso. A consultation with a Smartlipo physician can provide you with the best information.
What can I expect during a Smartlipo TriPlex procedure?
This laser-assisted lipolysis procedure is performed using a small cannula (or tube) about the size of the tip of a pen, which is inserted under the skin. The laser delivers energy directly to the fat cells through the cannula, causing them to rupture. The liquefied fat is then gently suctioned out. New collagen is produced, resulting in tissue tightening. The three laser wavelengths contained in Smartlipo TriPlex allow your surgeon to customize treatments based on the nature of your concerns.
What are the advantages of Smartlipo Triplex over conventional liposuction procedures?
First, both treatments remove fat but unlike Smartlipo TriPlex, conventional liposuction alone can leave behind loose skin. Second, Smartlipo treatments are typically performed with an IV sedation (instead of general anesthesia), or can even be done by using local anesthesia-that’s a real plus, leading to a faster, easier recovery. This unique procedure can also create a high definition, sculpted look by defining waistlines in women and abdominal muscles in men (six pack).
What can I expect from my Smartlipo Triplex recovery?
TriPlex is a minimally invasive procedure which usually requires IV sedation or local anesthesia. Some light bruising can occur, but you’ll be able to return to normal activities within a day or two.
