Cynosure Smartlipo
Reshape your body. Reshape your life.
Smartlipo LaserBodySculpting is a minimally invasive, laser-assisted lipolysis procedure that targets trouble spots like the abdomen, thighs and neck, and permanently eliminates fat.
Those love handles, bat wings, muffin tops, saddlebags and jowls that dont respond to exercise and diet? They improve dramatically with greater results, minimal downtime, and less pain than traditional liposuction. Because Smartlipo actually tightens the skin through coagulation, you dont have to worry about dimpling and sagging. And with Smartlipo MPX, you can experience the latest generation of laser-assisted lipolysis. This unique technology exclusively offered by Cynosure delivers the optimal blend of two laser wavelengths for fat removal, tissue tightening and safe results.
With Smartlipo, youre in the doctors office one day and turning heads the next. Are you ready? Its time to reshape your body and reshape your life.
Heres how it works:
- Local anesthesia is used (youre awake during the procedure)
- A tiny incision is made, about the size of the tip of a pen
- The Smartlipo laser fiber is inserted through a very small tube into your body
- The laser ruptures the fat cell membranes
- The fat cells are permanently destroyed
- The liquefied fat is gently suctioned out
- New collagen is produced resulting in coagulation of skin, resulting in tightening
Typically, only one treatment is required dependent on the number of areas to be treated. Results may vary, but usually can be seen within a week, with continued improvement over three to six months.
CO2 Fractional Laser
Maybe laser surgery wont make you younger, but it certainly can make you look that way. With new advances in laser skin resurfacing tactics, the Fountain of Youth might prove not to be a myth after all.
CO2 Fractional Laser treatment, combines the effectiveness of classic carbon dioxide lasers with a new application that prevents damage to the epidermis, or best layer of skin. This enhances its use for such issues as wrinkles, moles, scars and other skin circumstances.
There are two kinds of lasers: ablative lasers, which remove only the leading layer of the skin, or epidermis, and non-ablative lasers, which eliminate tissue below the epidermis. The former, which include CO2 lasers, are appropriate for use with minor facial issues that are mostly on the skins surface, such as blemishes and wrinkles. Non-ablative lasers are used to correct deeper skin conditions, such as birthmarks, enlarged blood vessels, severe acne scars, and for removing unwanted hair.
Role of Collagen
As we age, we tend to lose the critical connective tissue protein referred to as collagen, which makes skin powerful and elastic. Exposure to the sun and pollution also takes a toll on collagen. As a result, wrinkles can produce and skin can sag.
To stimulate the bodys organic production of collagen, laser resurfacing utilizes beams of light to bore tiny holes in the skin. This technique requires recovery period and some facial redness may occur temporarily that will eventually fade overtime.
Skin Regions Left Intact
The CO2 Fractional Laser therapy breaks up the laser beam into many small fractionated, or micro, beams which send thousands of tiny columns of heat deep into the skin. This heat destroys old skin cells and induces the production of new collagen.
Fractional resurfacing can be performed on the face, neck, chest, and hands. Frequent sideeffects can include short-term redness and swelling.
