All women dream of slim and shapely legs. However, it is usually difficult to zap stubborn leg fat with just diet and exercise. Hereditary, poor dietary habits, lack of exercise, and the stresses of life are the main factors responsible for those chunky legs. The good news is that there is a great option for those struggling to lose fat from the legs including the calves, knees and ankles – Smartlipo in NYC.
Smartlipo Triplex laser liposuction is performed using an advanced FDA-approved device with great body contouring properties. The procedure removes excess fat from the area with the help of triple wavelength (1440, 1064 and 1320nm) technology, which works to coagulate tissues and tighten loose skin for the best results. In addition to that, the device’s SmartSense™ and ThermaGuide™ delivery systems constantly monitor skin temperature and deliver safe levels of energy to ensure patient safety.
Liposuction on thighs or legs using laser energy is minimally invasive and doesn’t subject the patient to much pain, risk or complications. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia which allows patients to remain awake during the treatment. The Smartlipo Triplex laser is placed under the skin to liquefy the fat, seal the small blood vessels and tighten the skin. The fat is then gently suctioned out. Patients recover in just a few days’ time after this quick procedure. Benefits of laser liposuction on the legs include:
- Outpatient procedure under local anesthesia
- Tighten the skin and improve cellulite
- Provide toned and slender legs
- Less bleeding and bruising
- Short treatment time
- Reduced downtime
- Fast recovery
After the procedure, patients are advised to wear a compression garment to minimize swelling and to maintain their new contours. Mild discomfort is common during the first week but will gradually diminish and as the skin tightens, contour will improve. Lightly massaging the lower legs a few times a day for a few minutes from ankle towards the knee will improve blood and lymphatic circulation in the area. As the recovery time is faster than with conventional liposuction, patients can expect to resume normal activities within a few days. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is important for long-lasting results.
If you are considering Smartlipo in NYC, find a plastic surgeon who is experienced in this procedure. Only a skilled and expert surgeon can perform the procedure safely and effectively. Such surgeons will perform a comprehensive evaluation to determine whether laser liposuction is a suitable option for you. Following a thorough examination, and considering specific patient preferences and concerns, they will determine the appropriate treatment option that will help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
