What is Smart Lipo?

The field of plastic surgery has seen the introduction of several advanced technologies and techniques to make the procedures safer and more effective. One such procedure is Smart Lipo, which is a system of laser based lipolysis. Smart Lipo can be used in combination with traditional liposuction procedure to reduce its invasiveness, or may even be used independently, depending on the patient’s needs.

Plastic surgeons can employ this system to treat localized excess fat deposits in the body. It uses laser energy to destroy the targeted fat cells as well as causes bio stimulation of natural collagen in the body to achieve skin tightening. The treatment has been proven to be safe in several clinical studies conducted over the last decade. Positive recommendations from patients and doctors have led to a rise in the popularity of this procedure.

Factors Affecting Cost of Smart Lipo

The cost of a Smart Lipo treatment is usually lower than traditional liposuction surgery. Smart Lipo can be performed as an outpatient procedure using local anesthesia. Therefore, the costs of general anesthesia are also avoided with this treatment. The treatment involves the use of laser, and the practice should be equipped with advanced Smart Lipo technology to achieve the desired results.

Treatment costs may differ from one place to another, depending on the average costs of cosmetic surgery and the general cost of living in that region. Costs may also differ between different offices in the same area, depending on the quality of treatment offered, the experience and reputation of the operating surgeon, the skills of the support staff, and the facilities and back-up available at the surgeon’s office.

Average Cost of Treatment

The average cost of Smart Lipo treatment will be determined on the basis of the extent of treatment and the area of the body where the treatment is performed. Cost of treatment may typically range between $2,500 and $7,000 for each treated area. Cost should be treated as a secondary consideration for a sensitive procedure such as Smart Lipo.

If the surgery goes wrong, it can cost much more to perform a revisionary surgery. The cost of the procedure may reduce overall if the area of treatment is larger, or is combined with other plastic surgery or non-surgical procedures.
