Liposuction | Smartlipo | Excel Cosmetic Surgery Center

Smartlipo

Liposuction removes fat deposits on the body, face or neck. Bodily liposuction is used to slim the figure, while facial liposuction can slim facial contours, correct overly round faces, remove double chins and firm sagging jaw areas. This procedure may be carried out at an outpatient surgical facility or at a hospital. Dr. Engen consults with each patient to determine the best place for the surgery to be performed and whether local or general anesthesia will be used. Patients undergoing liposuction usually spend about two to three hours in surgery.

A wrap is worn for seven to ten days for physical support and improved recovery time following which patients are usually required to wear a surgical compression garment for an average of six weeks. Most patients are able to resume normal activities within two weeks of the procedure, and each patient should consult with Dr. Engen before resuming vigorous physical activity. This is usually possible within several weeks.

Smartlipo™

Smartlipo™ Laser Body Sculpting is a revolutionary new procedure that is less invasive than traditional liposuction. Smartlipo™ eliminates fat cells, improves overall body shape, and results in tighter skin tissue. It is particularly effective on areas of the body not easily reachable through traditional liposuction methods, such as the neck area, waist, arms, legs, and back.

Smartlipo™ is typically done at Excel’s outpatient surgical facility. Normally, a local anesthetic is used. Smartlipo™ usually lasts about two to three hours, and may be somewhat shorter or longer, depending on how extensive the procedure is. A wrap is worn for about seven days for physical support and improved recovery time following which patients are usually required to wear a surgical compression garment for an average of two to three weeks.

Most patients are able to resume normal activities within a week of the procedure, especially if they follow the instructions given to them after the surgery and during subsequent follow-up visits with Dr. Engen. Dr. Engen will consult with each patient to determine when full activity should be resumed.
